Dr Bee

can you please pin a post to this thread not to post any direct links rather just paste the links like /folder/ABC or ./photo or ./video/? At least let us bound our members to follow this?

That was my observation and I gave the same suggestion to some other board and link's taken down time decreased drastically. Why dont we just give it a try

I think it has something to do with the redirectURL. Whenever you post direct links on the forum and someone clicks on the link, there is a redirectURL that is being forwarded to the 4shared that from which site the user has navigated. That way, they can set up a parameter to automatically block links which has this forum's redirectURL. In my opinion, it would be good to only paste links like /folder/ABCXYZ or /photo/ABCXYZ or /video/ABCXYZ. Maybe we'd be able to keep the links alive for a little longer. This way, they will have to scroll the forum or each post in order to block the links.
