Anti-Leeching

it's cruelty to leechers.

Cruelty to the leechers? There's nothing wrong with working your way up: the people who want to stay here will work, the people who don't want to stay will screw around with posting then leave. Theres no problem here because there's plenty of traffic coming into the site and you don't want it to become a mess.

QTF

Get over your self it's a suggestion box.

I think he was trying to say Quote for truth not QTF. but I still think the main idea is terrible. give the thread starter an option.

[Greed]

I like how most people who disagree are non-contributors, aka leechers and a little bit of "active- members"

Typo ftl?


Yes i did mean Quoted for Truth.

Bad rule...

Spamming would be increased, lame exploits posts would increase.

[Matador]

Leechers (aka people who aren't able to get 5 rep in a month) should be banned.

Mmowned is not a website for leechers.

Yes because you are an admin and you know exactly what mmowned is for and isnt for. if mmowned was not a website for leechers then matt would have deleted them all.

Sorry about that to many abbreviations for me to keep track of, lol. Yeah the people who are non-contributors are working on their best interests and as soon as I get my car fixed I'd love to start donating to this site.

w there are tons of leechers on this site. I think that leechers should not be able to click download links. This will increase posts and activity on forums.

This has Concerned me because i say my own emu pack being used on a "rival" server and that person hasnt posted once on mmowned.
(i no this is more of a personal problem, but this happens ALL the time and i think it needs to stop)

That is all thank you

I really dont think this is a good way to deal with the problem. once this happens, over time MMOwned will lose over 30,000 leecher members. after this, site activity will decline. leechers add to the overall population of the site, encouraging companies to support us.

In addition, this wont stop leechers in the exploits section, and the ones who did leave may try to get others to attack mmowned and/or try to hack members. Either way, some leechers eventually do come to be highly contributing members (like phase) and alot of them only leech s they dont make newb comments when they Do start posting. some people aren't apt with computers and cant steadily contribute via emu or ME, others have IRL problems. though leechers are a problem somewhat, they also are a boon to our cause. End of story

[Unholyshaman]

sounds awesome /signed, Not able to click links or downloads. This will limit their access to most guides which im sure alot of leechers are here for.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Perfect Suggestion.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I support that 100%.

Its okay, but its kinda hard to get rep as leecher -.-

[kreation]

I'll probably be marked as a leecher (and that's okay, since I'm new), but I very much disagree with this idea. Lowering the abilities of leechers truly will create less people in the community.

I think the better solution would be to create a higher rep section that only those of a certain amount of rep points should be allowed to view (or allowed to view the links).

[Matador]

My opinion.
I think that Matt made this site so people could share ideas, programs etc.

But better wait till he replies.

I do agree - even though I am a leecher myself.

I think SOMETHING should be required for a person to download or click links. You guys are providing knowledge and information for free, cheap, or it is even costing you. So, yeah, "something" should be required. What is the "leech limit" now? Five posts? I think I can do that... I'm working on it.

However, I have to say that the community doesn't want or need to see a lot of posts from me at the moment or anytime in the near future because I am... well, I am a total noob. I am just learning how to set up a server and add stuff and I am learning everything from reading (leeching) your posts. Thank you.

I haven't done ANYthing enough times yet to be able to make a guide or even give advice for it. Any advice from me on the subject of emu servers should be questioned because I don't know WTH I'm doing honestly. I do keep an eye out for someone asking a question that I've found the answer to and I will post them the link... if I can find it again :P.

Thanks again to everyone who contributes, helps out, and runs this site.

Sincerely,
The Leech
