Why require level 5 to download scans?

Minitokyo

Minitokyo » Minitokyo Fora » Minitokyo  Why require level 5 to download scans?

page 1 of 2

I think that asking for level five to download scans is a cheap move, if someone is interested in minitokyo thy will just post, but require participation is not fair play...
Please tell me the reason of this because i need to reach level 5 :P

the reason for this of course (and which should be obvious) is because of MiniTokyo's bandwidth...i mean would you like it to only have leechers gettin all the bandwidth while the "true" members of MT which are really active can't get any or have bad experiences due to leechers ? No i guess you wouldn't like that.

That move is not cheap it's just to scare leechers off because MT lives from the members and not from leechers...hope ye understand

*Leecher = somebody getting something, but never gives something back

yeah...that's why we had a little discussion yesterday about uping that level a little higher. XD it's a possibility that Sheqel might even do it.

Plus, if we require people to actually level up, it'll weed out the leechers, and make them dedicated members of MT for life (hopefully). After all, it's worth it.

dedicated members ... ? wasn't the correct term .. minions of evil ... or MT Paper Slaves ?? <grin>

MT love dolls perhaps XD

lol....isn't it obvious the level constraint is to prevent leechers? XD itz already good that MT doesn't require email authentication during sign-ups ...so there must be some barrier to prevent mass leechers...... up the level i'll say! XD hehehe....or at least limit like 10 d/ls /24h from scan gallery for those below lvl 10 XD *evil grin*

awww cmon...participating in a great community like this is a small price to pay for ALL the amazing scans we get! i promise you, this IS the largest scan database on the net. besides, i dont think it's really fair that we contribute so much, but someone can just waltz in, leech the scans, and never come back. not very cool.

sammo is a trivia monster, dont listen to him lol

well, lets see, level 5 is easily reachable, if u do a bit of comment, reply and uploads

see, theres even a person (noctum) who manages to reach up to level 88 for a months time, lol

C'mon lvl 5 isnt that hard to reach... make some posts, upload 2 things and ure there. Might as well put it up to 10. Or make the Male/Female section 5, and the Ecchi/Hentai section 10 ^_^

I was also thinking that posibility, since the Ecchi/Hentai scans are very nice, but i'll rather keep my mouth shut untill i can reach level 10.
And ofcourse you agree with the idea...!
YOU ARE LEVEL 10!!!

Hentai section will be gone soon.

so true and sad...XD anyways the idea to increase that level to lvl. 10 isn't a bad idea hehehe :D

how do you increase in lv. do you just post at the forum's?

yes that's one of the various ways, comment on wallpapers and scans, post in forums write in guestbooks....

I think that the 10dl/24h for those with low level is a working idea. It really should be implemented, I believe.

And I would also add my own idea:
Let the respondents vote for the originality of a thread. If the thread is beneficial, the author will go up. But if people vote that it's spam, uh, oh. Worse level. I suggest this, because many people create unoriginal threads just to gain popularity.

Level 5 isn't hard to reach, but Level 10 is a different matter. It would be very difficult for non-waller like myself. I'm sure most members are active on the minitokyo network; it's just that not everyone is looking for scans to wall and wallpapers for their desktops. I like the scan section just for the sheer delight of having the image.
