i never said donations are bad , members that spare a few bucks to help out their favourite Torrent Community is what keeps most communities running and personally i'd love to donate a few bucks to my favourite Communities (like LT) if i had the possibility (which i dont have atm)
tough what does gets me evil and sad at the same time is if ppl are exploiting the always persistant need for warez (it has always been there) to get financial gain of it
and i dont care it are sysops/owners (torrentsites/communities)
or siteops (topsites) that try to get a financial gain of it that is bigger than the actual costs (with a small percentage of extra costs calculated fo future upgrades)
the only thing it will attract is bad karma and unnecesary risks fo all our uploading friends that do their best to get the files as fast as possible after PRE to everyones personal site
and fo those who are interested : operation site down (2005)
