Hi gals and guys,

I sometimes notice that people have ratings/comments for a file that describe it as fake and tell me to "download hypermule pro" or other sh*t. I never really cared about those.

But today I noticed the following comment for a file I am currently downloading:
Quote:
Add comments to kill fake and damaged files!


It is clear that comments help to avoid fake (if they are not fakes themselves).
But do they kill damaged files? Is this true? Can someone confirm this?

Next release will be: La Cité Des Entfants Perdu (1995) + Making Of (Status: working on the subtitles)
Last release was: Svengali (1931)

My guess would be that a comment alone cannot kill a fake file. But when people would sincerely make comments on files, which means they would not write bullshit and only tag the files as fake which actually are fake, it would result in nobody downloading the file anymore, hence the file would die.

Reading this I suppose you understand why it isn't working ;)

Best way to kill a file is to delete it... or correct the name. Right? :wacky:

Ok. So I guess it must be people abusing the possibilty of adding comments to shared files. :prat:

I add comments all the time. Some people do actually use them properly and without malice. :jesus:
