UPDATE: (11th March, 2010).. We bought a new account to add to the Public, yesterday. It was closed earlier today. We figure they’ve flagged our server IP address and don’t want us to leech bandwidth from them. They’re the most ‘retarded’ host we’ve come across, yet.
Alright.. this is a serious post. And a very short one, at that.
Over the past 2 months, Hotfile has closed at least 3 different legitimate accounts that we purchased off their website. Their apparent reason for having done so are:
- Sharing premium account information
- Cheating Hotfile downloads
- Multiple IP downloads
Point is, none of the above is true. As of right now, we’re simply throwing money to support Hotfile, and in return, we get our account(s) canceled every 2-3 days. Not really the best or the most feasible option.
I’m considering dropping support for hotfile, entirely. However, I’ve yet to discuss it with Dman. I need comments, though, from everyone else, on this.
Cheers,
Hamza
P.S: Hotfile will still be supported on Premium RP, though.

damn so it all makes sense now.
to be honest it’d suck if your guys’ hotfile service for public got killed though.
the only reason I use the link generator is for hotfile, cause hotfile…
fucking sucks. everybody’s using it now since they can make money if people download their links using hotfile.
and hotfile’s waittimes are fucking overboard gay. 30 minutes? nigga please. download speed from hotfile is generally average to below average as well, compared to megaupload and mediafire.
i really fucking love the hotfile link generator on this website though, i hope it doesnt go down for the public accounts.
however, if you guys are basically purchasing an account, and then it gets closed within a few days, then you guys basically give them money, (i donno, what, 5 bucks for a week or something), use it for 2 days, get it closed, and lose the 5 days left you should have.
i’m hoping hotfile has something like a one day service thing, so even if they did close your account it wouldn’t matter, the service only lasts for a day anyway.
so buy the shortest term prem account for the public login.
but that’s just wishful thinking. chances are you guys are gonna close down the public hotfile link generator for good, and I guess it’s just something that might have to be done.
it was great while it lasted though. thanks for everything =)

ps, the other significant reason why hotfile is gay is because randomly they’ll implement their antidetectable captcha, rendering programs like j-downloader useless.
hotfile wouldnt be as painful if jdownloader could recognize it’s captcha, but jdownloader doesnt.
i mean, rapidshit gives me shitty speed, AND it’s wait times are pretty bad (15 minutes).
but it has 0 captcha, so i can just auto download it using jdownloader and im good to go.
but motherfucking hotfile is like DERP NO CAN DOOOO SIRRRR.
IMMA ANTI RECOGNIZABLE CAPTCHA YO NIGGA ASS.

lastly:
if the public demands it enough will you guys still consider trying to keep the hotfile link generator working for the public account? *crosses fingers*
no seriously, all other hotfile prem link generators are either fucked up by those “DO THIS SURVEY AND ENTER ALL OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION, RANGING FROM EMAIL, TO CELL NUMBER, TO SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER, AND THEN YOU CAN USE THIS WEBSITE”
or they never have open slots.

Nope we’re back
Damn was sad to hear this.
I came for this site just for the hotfile though =/ but thanks anyway.
It would be good if you guys continue supporting hotfile for public generator.
[Reply]
I think that is not a good idea for dropping hotfile and leave it dead because many people do prefer hot file as specially with no money to buy premium account. for me its doesnt matter but think about the other…
but by the time as far as i know rapidpremium.net still the best for me
[Reply]
Hello guys,
U have been putting up a gr8 job here. I wud hate to see HF not being supported in future.
All the scorp uploads are on HF and RS, to which RapidPremium has been a gr8 rescue.
Thanks again for the splendid service u guys have put up here.
[Reply]

Hotfile has been fixed.
[Reply]
well i use this site mainly for hofile (as public don’t have RS and MU is resumable for all…other host doesn’t matter)….but the the stuff hotfile is doing is just annoying …i fully support your decision from dropping it (even though i just happened to download a load of files from there) and plzz if hotfile becomes better (that means remove all the shit) you’ll pick it up….good luck…

Hotfile is back
[Reply]
Guys temporarily Hotfile is back. We don’t know till how long will we be able to support it. We have filed disputes we will see how that goes. We are paying for all accounts/servers out of our pockets.

[Reply]
Just as Hotfile started to gain more prominence while Rapidshare started to suck even more (damn Swiss-Germans!), they’re going to the dogs…
Now that it’s fixed, let’s hope for the better
[Reply]
Please repair and keep it working… a lot of stuff is served by HOTFILE.
[Reply]
May be you guys can use mediafire instead of hotfile in your download links so that would be easy for us and you too, also you can use redirector ads in those links to earn, i m just saying
[Reply]
i love this RP WS only 4 generating links to direct
&
frankly speaking i use 95% link of Hotfile
so we want Hotfile anyway 4 free….
by the way we also want RS link generator 4 free
thnx to site admin
[Reply]
Guys start using megaupload instead of hotfile and ask scorp if he also stops it.Most of the download from hotfile is whtever scorp gives them
[Reply]
lol sue them
[Reply]
i apriciate your efforts a lot. how about scorp and rony start to upload their releases in other hosts(other than rapidshare) supported by RP. in that way you can kick hotfile’s ass goodbye….
[Reply]
yeah right.. this change would probably render this site useless since you dont allow RS downloads.
[Reply]
plzzz don’t end supprt for hotfile in public zone
[Reply]
Pls don’t stop hotfile for Public.
They are the only links we can find since RS not not supported now.
[Reply]
yes please, drop the hotfile. I like megaupload.

too bad greedy bastards don’t make money if they upload using mediafire/megaupload.
[Reply]
I hate HF links, but rapidpremium.net make me love HF bcoz you guys make me job easier, but if rapidpremium.net want to drop HF, then I hate using HF again.. and basically, maybe I don’t use rapidpremium again…
[Reply]
Pls don’t close hf for public, where i can find the best free hf generator again
[Reply]
I’d be screwed if HF support is dropped from the public account. 99% of the files I download are stored on HF. Plus, I don’t have a credit card and can’t buy a premium account. Also, I share my external IP address (have no idea why, ask my isp) so the downloading times are infinite on HF and other filehosting sites:(
Finally my connection speeds are at average 10k/s… RP saves my life by allowing me to resume dwlds.
Thanks anyways for providing us RP guys:)
[Reply]
better switch to sumthin else which doesnt creates troubles like these very often…coz it pays a very huge cost to us.leaving the PC on,the IDM keeps on downloading the faulty HOTFILE links, but actually nothing happns.wastage of electricity…damn…need sumthing much better than this.! i will go for putting down the HOTFILE..
[Reply]
in thiz case , allow RS for public userz… As all the moviez of http://www.300mbunited.com/ are hosted on RS n HF….

I don’t think that’s possible because as we all know, there’s daily quota limit and to support the public users means RP will have to provide a lot of RS accounts (which I don’t think it’ll be feasible).

I don’t think they really could put RS back up on the public since they have to continuously buy bandwidth for the accounts, due to RS’s limits that they impose. But at least RS is honest to the public and doesn’t falsely advertise unlimited bandwidth per day and then cancel peoples accounts who go over a certain bandwidth (like HF).
[Reply]
Dman most of the peoples are using hotfile in this site…..so plz….get back it soon…..i think hot file is using 90% in this RP server…..so get back soon.
[Reply]
yeah use megaupload .. hotfile suck !!!!!!!!
[Reply]
hotfile sucks ass
[Reply]
I hate HotFile. I sometimes upload some stuffs on hotfile but when i make my payment, i will start with uploading on RS
HF sucks!
[Reply]
Hotfile are thieves! If you buy a account and DL too much they will change your pass, say you were hacked and then ban you for “illegal activity”. If you upload to them they will suspend you for no reason if you don’t bring them enough sign ups and then not pay up. And there is a string rumour floating around that they are selling your IPs and emails to the Feds to avoid being shut down.
[Reply]
drop it, hotfile is just too damn annoying.
[Reply]
they are scams , i am an uploader and they banned me just before getting paid!
[Reply]
u people out there dont purchase hotfile accounts no more, u pay for premium account, but there is nothing to download using hotfile, anything u want to d/load, is either removed or it returns 404 error. it is now a con spread the word hotfile is taking money from u fraud, and yes they are selling ur info to the feds, i iknow cause i`ve hadd a visit from them but i dont do my activities at my place so sucked in shit heads. KEEP AWAY FROM HOTFILE PREMIUM ACCOUNTS ITS A SCAM
