    Yes exactly, most of my recent postings I bought myself. Moreover, then gfx and the others make money with it by selling filesharing accounts to download them which is for me a no-go.
    Might have been discussed before, maybe separate to a gold flag a flag you need xxx trophy points before getting access? But again difficult to control around leaks.
    Then one shares at times less or just exchanges exclusive/rare stuff on a personal basis through private chat.

    Unfortunately, as long as it is open for sign-up there will be leakers.
    This happens not only here, but on every community.
    But you can help: if you find that your posts were leaked, please message me with the details(which posts were leaked and where).

    That's ridiculous. Most people give likes to the same kind of posts, like things for lightroom or Photoshop, this doesn't mean people will leak them. sometimes, not always, I give a like to posts just to say thank you to the member and reward him with points that will allow him to get gold membership and I don't even download the files.

    Maybe a higher level membership (for members of 1.000 likes or higher [non-paid] , for example) can protect some precious stuff, here

    Everything we have published here has been put up for sale by other parties, there is nothing we can do about it.

    There is something we can do. If you find that your content was leaked send me a message with the leaked thread.
    This way, by joining multiple messages I can pinpoint the leaker.

    Absolutely everything I published here was immediately posted elsewhere within 48 hours

    That is unfortunate, but several leakers have been banned already.
    But messaging me about leaks for new threads is important because we can catch the leaker asap.

    wow yes (did not know the site), some of the stuff I just posted I can see there, and I take they did not buy it themselves.

    Thank you for your reports.
    Due to your reports I was able to identify and ban several accounts.

    I doubt it matters, bc they can easily open another account most likely with a different name..
    It is really hard to avoid leakers, I personally paid for many things and posted them here and they were leaked with in hours..
    But at the same time I have downloaded many good shares on other "Paid" or membership sites that share great things that cannot be found in other "free" sites.. So it is what it is..
    Not sure if it is possible but there should be a private membership here where we can chip in to "purchase" good shares that are from other sites or Telegram that sell good things for a very low low prices, But that might be risky for the owners of this site. Instead of group buys, we could do chip ins to purchase things and share them in a private membership level here... Instead of the minimal 100.00 group buys. @george ? Or is that out of the equation?
