FileJoker.net Issues

[linkmail2]

Just between you and me, Filejoker can go file itself.

120 seconds for a super-slow download? And you have to keep the page on top for the whole countdown?

File that shizz.

[Fallon]

120 second countdown, having to keep the tab open, for a 25 kb/s download. I don't get it:

People all over PS are complaining about Filejoker the most, no other filehost comes close in terms of complains FOR YEARS now. But it's still allowed here?

May I ask why?

I don't actually KNOW but...

...probably because it's actually a very small number of people who are complaining about FJ compared, for example, to the complaints about Rapidgator which really have been going on FOR YEARS!

And it's probably not just me who can live with a 120 second countdown where I have to stay on the page without being absolutely OUTRAGED about it.

And it's probably not just me who gets 120 kb/sec day in, day out and can have multiple downloads running as a free user - yes a FREE USER.

If they weren't getting lots of downloads, uploaders wouldn't use FJ. Even posting here at the Planet wouldn't make it worthwhile if nobody can download your stuff because FJ is such a PILE OF STEAMING SHIT.

I don't see anyone who's outraged about it. Perhaps your outrage meter needs to be recalibrated?

In any case, it's hard to overlook the ridiculous requirement that users stay-on-the-page for two minutes. In 35+ years online in various formats, I've never seen any other site that makes the same demand.

Granted, it's better than those fucked up captchas that make me click on bicycle wheels 20 times, but it's still pretty annoying.

I'll leave others to read your last 2 posts and make up their own minds

Wow 35+ years online? That means the net existed since 1983

ARPAnet went online in 1969. In 1983, ARPAnet went to TCP/IP protocol, the modern Internet. True story.

Only 120 seconds now?

It used to be 240 seconds!

They must be improving trying not to live up to their name.

In 1982 I was graduating from High School and my brother was already in college doing his Engineering degree and working part time for Schlumberger in Houston.

He worked the night shifts sometimes and he would take me with you and let me sit in the computer room and play with a computer, playing chess or Star Trek against someone somewhere and responses from the other person are shown on the screen and simultaenously printed out on a printer with perforated edges green and white paper.

I think I still get the occasional 180 seconds, but you're right. A lot of the times it's 120 seconds. Never stopped to think about it. haha

Even as a premium member I had nothing but trouble with filejoker.
Complaints to them were simply ignored.

I refuse to download anything from them now and can usually locate & download the file via other forums using K2s or FB because the PS mods wont ban FJ.

May I respectfully suggest that you consider taking the same action.
