Re - Up's of deaad links on Vibes (Site News)

 


* A few days ago someone requested a re up of the second cd in a two cd set, there was no name, the comment was anonymous. Anyway I looked at the post and saw it was not my post, but another member of the Vibes team (who is temporally without access to a working computer). So I checked my folder and didn't have a copy, I know another team member downloaded a copy, but as they are away on vacations at the moment, didn't want to ask them to upload it.

Well it turn out I had a 320 version, the original post was in 256. So I uploaded it, but spent my time looking for it and uploading it and then sharing it on the post. And who ever request it, has not even downloaded it!! Why do people do this? Please don't request a re up, if you have no plans to return and collect a copy. Well the link will stay on the post until Monday, if nobody returns, the new link will be deleted from the post and it won't be added again, unless it requested by someone who makes many comments here and adds a name to their comments or it's someone I know!! And they were getting an upgrade from 256 to 320, go figure.

Each member is responsible to re up the links for their posts, and as that team member, is unable to do it at this time, I thought I would try to sort it, just for someone not to collect it! Can't have wanted it very badly, or just messing about, who knows!

I have no problem sharing another link for any thing I have shared on Vibes, apart from the Flac I share here, but I have had a rethink about that as well, if someone I know or someone how adds a name to their comments (and have made many comments here) Then I will send them a copy, if they add their email address in the comment, which we won't publish, I will upload it and email them a new link, but the link won't be published on the post. I only keep Flac files of Reggae or Soul, any other genre is converted into 320 and I keep that. 

We have also been getting a few nasty comments submitted to the site once again, but as all comments have to be approved, they don't appear unless I publish them, I was thinking about changing it back to automatic posting, but the system works and stops the internet idiots from post shite in the comments. 

One thing is would be great if your posting an anonymous comment if you could be so kind to add a name or nickname to the comment, then we have an idea who we are getting the comment from and if you require a Flac update it could mean the difference between you getting a copy via email or not *
