Warning about downloading full folders of pictures

Post by carl0s » 2004-08-19 22:14

i got banned last night from 2 major hubs

Spankingpower
and
KristianLand

because i left dc++ on all night downloading an entire folder of what i thought was wallpapers

BUT there was one file called UnderageIllegal(2).jpg
i didnt know it was there and you guessed it
i wake up this morning with perm bans in those hubs


anyone know how i can get unbanned at all?
i couldnt any forums for these 2 hubs

i wasnt even connected to Spankingpower at the time
Kristian passed my IP i guess to them and it's going to get worse until i can fix this
i tried SP this morning to find i was banned

i didnt aim to get this file i didnt want it i deleted it immediately

Why are you downloading things to shared folders, and without first reviewing them?

Ironically 90% of my downloads are reviewed but wallpapers are my exception :( they go straight to my wallpaper directory

everything else goes to an unshared folder (\downloads\)
where i check them then move them manually later :(

My illogical nature has punished me

Ive spent today checking through my download list to see if anything else was added in the same manner but i didnt find anything ,
it's like winning the lottery 1 in a million chance only not getting something good from it
