Yep, but you will only know the difference if someone pushes the annoying to its limits.

There's also the case of an immature poster being annoying, like it was with the famous KD at HC :P

But then there are some people who are naturally talented and don't need to make much of an effort. :tongue:

Really, beeing sarcastic makes kids crazy. They don't think over there, they ask the most stupid questions (google has INSTANT hits), and that is what I do. I tell people to use their brains...

The hangman threat made me crazy, over 4 minutes waiting after I cliked on submit and didn-t submit :disagree:
I ended with 3 posts, but I deleted two of them :)
It's surely doomed :mad:

I have this theory, that in order to please the Hangman-ghost, you must'nt post your letter too soon after clicking "post reply"....
I used to always get stuck there. As if one letter is a hard one to post :rolleyes:

No comment. I think that is easy to spot my two P. The Hangman went mad..

And in general I have a slight impression that we're slower now. For the reason unknown.

If I may, there's one that I liked a bit, more than these two, which was the flickr - related to Yahoo! I found it had less restrictions and such for that sort of website.

Same here, for some reason I never could get the hang of ImageShack. :P

ImageShack sucks because it allows you to upload without an account, in effect expiring after a period :P

Not really, I always prefer Media Fire over others like Rapid Share because you can create your account and the files won't get deleted after 30 days (provided you log in once every 30 days, of course)

I mean, you create the account only once, compared with uploading the same files multiple times because they expire...

Rapidshare sucks but everyone uses it for some reason :tsdown:

You'll have to wait 15 minutes between downloads and the download itself goes really slow as well. Sucky.


btw: I think you can have an account at rapidshare as well, not sure about the expiring stuff.

Good time to launchin my vacations. :D

Now, rapidshare is a payed service - if you don't pay you are slow with a downloading - that's the measure. Also if people download a lot from your free accout, you will be promoted to a payed account for the advertising.

And as well I'm using ImageShack, with the ImageBot (firefox plugin) interface and for my purposes it's quite splendid.

PS I have no idea what's wrong with Hangman or how to fix it and I'm going on vacations, so probably not a big help from me. If someone want to that, he may try to check the logs (Huh G.C.?). It's pretty looking like a sort of database error.

Did you try to compare it to mediafire? That's paid too (for the Pro version) but the free one is MUCH better (faster, no need to wait between downloads, etc...)
