How would you know if a password was needed but not included in the post?
Lately I've downloaded a number or "rar file" vids that didn't show up after decoding them after the download.

Yeah ... that seems so simple.
How come then ... do you think ... it is when after I "un-rar" a dozen or so files they don't show up anywhere? It's aggravating as all get-out.

I wonder why so many people rar or zip their files.
It is just one more time consuming step to un rar them, and its not as if we need to save file size space these days.

Because RARing/ZIPping files makes them harder for the filehosts to detect when doing a DMCA takedown sweep. Same reason people change the filename to something totally undecipherable... which makes it real fun after downloading to try and figure out what it was, especially when they don't include the cover image. That's why you see garbage text files zipped into the archive, it changes the checksum. Plus, for image archives, it's a pain in the keyboard to download and save them one at a time. |

I don't get the latest uprise in watersports-vids. Why?
I see the name of some of my favorites in a list (Tina Kay, Alexis Crystal etc.) and it turns out to be a pissing-vid. I hate it :P |

That's why they have menus at restaurants. Everyone gets their choice. If something gets popular ... for whatever reason ... more is produced. Chase the $$$.
