    Some members post in the video forums, not to interact with other members, but to generate income. They do this by uploading the content to a file host that has a cash sharing scheme. A cash sharing scheme allows the uploader to collect a small commission each time the file is downloaded. Generally, the use of such services is not allowed by forum rules, but two cash share file hosts were exempted (I don't know why).

    These posts do not financially benefit the forum and require staff time to monitor.
    They also tend to earn few "likes" and have lower "views" so they don't appear to be very popular.

    Effective immediately download links to FileBoom (fboom) and FileJoker are not allowed.

    Existing threads using these filehosts will be locked and the posters will be notified. To give members a last chance to download videos the threads will not be deleted for a month or two.

    Posts by FunShareUsa will continue to use the cash sharing host of his choice.These posts DO financially benefit the forum. You may help support the forum by downloading these videos.
