A hide Hide with a difference. ( not like lockdown)
 

I don't know if there has already been made.

A few people on our board spend a lot of their own time making walkthroughs for DVD ripping, Making Multi-CD games that fit on DVDr and so on.

then they attach the txt file to their post, but when i go and look at the post it's got something like the ratio of 20 downloads to 2 replies.

what i need is to give these peeps some credit for their hard work.

so is their a hack that will make someone reply before they can download the file ??

or when they click the Attachment. it wont download unless they say thanks.

I know there are hacks out there that you may have to have so many points to download a file.
i didn't want to go down that road if possible. i'm not bothered if the member has made 15000 posts or 1 post or has been a member for 2 years or two days. i just need em to say thanx. and i've tried the tatic of telling peeps to say thanx for download but i think it falls on deaf ears sometimes...

Thanx for any help on this...

That still sounds like the lockdown hack yo.

Sorry but I'm confused. Are you admitting that your forums engage in Intellectual Property violations? :confused:

No, i know what a lock down hack is.
i'm not asking for that as i can get plenty of those.

As for illegal that is an argument that can go on for decades.
if you have lets say 6 games may it be PC, Xbox or what ever and they are very small in size Megs wise.
don't you agree fitting 3 or more games on a CD/DVDr with a menu saves a lot of discs changing ??

But i'm not asking for a debate on the morals of making menus or
dvd ripping.

Cos if that was the case no doubt 95% of the members of this board will join in on the FOR's against maybe 3% of peeps who don't and the other 2% oh say they don't but do.

But seems as a simple request is going to turn into one of those sunday morning Moral boosting debates, i'll give it a miss....

Mate, We arent having a go or anything dont worry, what your asking is EXACTLY the hackdown.

Do you mean "Who downloaded the attachment" hack?

No, he means the lockdown hack, there was a thread (which is sticked) by wluke

More like violations of the all-godly DMCA, but either way, this really is a lockdown hack (requiring a reply before accessing information), so thread closed. If people are not doing what you want, then disipline them by a banning. It's your board. :)
