Default RS happy hour

17. April 2008 - Captcha stories, happy hours

As every free user should have noticed, we are experimenting once again with the CAPTCHA system. The reason is that RapidShare is popular enough for people to create tools to download from RapidShare as a free user as if they were a premium user. This has a negative impact for our paying premium users, since they expect a fast download. On the other hand we are also experimenting with happy hours again. When our servers have enough spare bandwidth, we will make it easier for free users to download from RapidShare, knowing that this also makes it possible again to automatically download files with those tools. Right now the RapidShare Happy Hours will disable the download tickets and the captchas completely.

Why can't I download? - "leeching forbidden you are only allowed to seed"

If you have downloaded over 2GB and your ratio has dropped below 0.50 you will not be able to download.

Solutions

1) Leave a completed torrent in your client until you have uploaded enough data to bring your ratio up to 0.75
2) Upload a torrent of your own and seed until your ratio is 0.75 or higher.
3) Donate to the site and gain Premium membership


Please let me know if my torrent or links are dead

Are the "Happy Hours" published or not? I will admit that I have seen roughly the same numbers as a free vs a premium member, but it all depends on with host you elect to download from at any given time.

It's not worth the trouble to get it free. Buy the RS account and save the time, pays for itself really, 150GB a month is a fair amount of transfer for your $.
