Thank you so much Jazzy for implementing the 30 post D/l rule for the proxies. Although I feel it should be a little higher since a person could literally throw 30 thank you's out there in under 15 minutes and then begin leeching away, it's still definitely a move in the right direction. I really hate to see someone like dany's threads that have been downloaded 30 and 40 times and it has 2 or 3 thank you's in it. He is, in my opinion, a great source of proxies for the site and should be thanked for his efforts. Proxy searching takes up a lot of time and the people that keep us fed for proxies deserve every bit as much respect as those of us that use them to get everyone else their passes. I just hope that with the new rule, some of the leeching slacks up and the proxies stay alive a little longer for those of us feeding the passes out there instead of going to other sites and being credited to other people. Thanks dany and everyone else who generates the proxies, wordlists, and other tools necessary to keep the general population of this site happy.

Which happens. And always will happen regardless of how high we set the mark.
However, 30 thanx in 15 minutes is quite often spotted by one of our well-trained and highly skilled sentinels or mods and discipline is generally swift.

even I'm seen as LURKER, I have an offer to you, there are several way to kick lamers/lurkers/sucker/copy-paster..(whatever u call them). I'm member of several forums (softwarez, proxy
...etc) You can disable POST NUMBER COUNTING FOR REPLIES.
Only script counts NEW POSTS. That means replies to all posts
does not give anything to lurkers.
Another way is awarding the members depends on acitivities on forum ( the best xxx poster of week or month)... ( the best proxy poster ....meeeeeeee ) ... the best lurker of the week = BANNN as award ..... I dont know POINT are usable or not here.
Or may be you give statues members as RPG or FRP games.
... levels or statues (.... wizard... paladin.... etc).... these type of
cookies make happy the newbies and lurkers.
HARSH way is going PRIVATE...that should be THE LAST HOLE...
