The download database is not your personal file storage. The only thing that needs to be uploaded is publicly released maps or other content.

If I catch anyone uploading personal shit or using the download database as their personal file host, you will be banned on the fucking spot.

I can't fathom what kind of an attitude you must have to think that a free map hosting site like this would in any way be okay with you abusing our services and hosting your personal files. But I'll try to summarize it into a single sentence: Fuck you.

I can't believe that any person in this universe is dumb enough to do that. How on earth is it not possible to get, that this is a Portal forum and not a file host?
Man, such dumbness should be prohibited by the police.

Please say, this is a joke, everything else would be too sad.

Why do you care? I don't think that particularly matters.

Because we need to know who the person is so we can bully them out of this community.

On the entire subject... sums it up.

Just curious, what personal files did the moron upload?

It was me. I uploaded my hentai Moomin cosplay pictures. But I genuinely thought you guys would want to see them.

I know, I was just being sarcastic because... come on? Really? Using a Portal site as a personal file host?

Did you even read msleepers' post? It doesn't matter.

Clearly it doesn't matter, but I am allowed to be curious.

But we had the same situation just few posts ago. Do you really think that 1) there's that much difference between who missused the dd or what she uploaded and 2) msleeper would tell you, while he refused to tell another user.

I never saw anybody ask what the file was, and msleeper didn't say "no, it's secret" he said "does it matter?"

You don't wanna get it, right? Just forget it.

It doesn't fucking matter, who missused the dd or what he uploaded. You got it now? Because I won't explain it a third time.

You're allowed to be curious, and you're allowed to piss me right the fuck off for being so.

Just to be clear, WIP Portal/Portal 2-related stuff is still allowed to be hosted here for sharing, correct?

I hope you can understand the difference between "WIP maps" and "personal files".

It's not a matter of stupid, really. It's a matter of a total lack of respect. Specifically, towards this site and the services we provide. I realize how easy it is to take free file hosts for granted, there's about a dozen "free" ones I can think of off the top of my head. But the catch there is they aren't really free. Most of them offer a small volume to free users, and paid users get expanded features and more storage and so on.

But we don't have that. Maps and other content is stored here totally free for everyone who visits and uses it. Sure it's not a ton of space in the grand scheme or that we're low on hard drive space. I don't think anyone assume we're doing Google or Amazon levels of file storage. But just because we have a completely free to use file hosting space, doesn't mean you can use it for just whatever you want.

Not just this. It a lack of respect towards you, who set up this site, its download database and so on.
