Downloads ADF wiki page needs update

Anubis · 22 March 2007, 16:06

One of the sites is 'pay only' downloads. (Amiga Power)

I think that should be added into list as well.

I tried to edit it but I can't figure it out.

MethodGit · 22 March 2007, 23:10

Yeah, I discovered last night that the site was now asking people to register and pay a small price for it.

What's worse is that it's done through the phone.... I haven't done this sort of thing before and I just don't know if I can trust it somehow.

It's a shame as they host a good deal of old HDFs too!

You'll have to pay 0.47 GBP for a lifetime membership... This is really dangerous

Come on this small amount can't be the problem, go ahead an call them if you wanna download.

MethodGit · 23 March 2007, 01:17

Well, so long as there aren't any hidden charges or anything...... the bit where it mentioned 20 minutes or summat kinda irked me a tad.

I'd just stay well clear if I was you

It can all be found elsewhere!

Anubis · 23 March 2007, 02:50

All it can be find elsewere and fee for programs made by others is just wrong IMHO.

MethodGit · 25 March 2007, 03:05

Well, it seems I can't register anyway - as I just remembered that 09 numbers are blocked on our phone system here at home!

They appear to be the only site to house those HDFs as well. Their "forum" link leads to nowhere either! And I can't seem to find any way to contact them otherwise. They're bloody useless!

MethodGit · 31 March 2007, 21:15

Well, it wasn't actually too hard in the end. Registered through my mobile (after unlocking premium access on it of course)!

From what I've learnt, the process is very quick, they don't make you stay on the phone for 20 minutes or whatever, the overall cost was literally less than 50p, and the rest of the registration process was done online.

I wonder whether I should grab all the downloads and mirror them elsewhere to make everyone else happy though.........

You could make me happy by changing your signature.

MethodGit · 01 April 2007, 00:57

What's wrong with it? It's been like that for five years or so, haha.

Duke · 01 April 2007, 01:33

Well it's very annoying. And yes, it's been bugging me for years

You done this yet methodgit?

MethodGit · 06 April 2007, 08:40

Haven't had time, been busy and whatnot! And I'll be out for most of today.

killergorilla · 06 April 2007, 14:04

It's a 4 day weekend, you'll find time

We´ve got only 3 day weekend. Disadvantage of an atheist country

Anubis · 10 April 2007, 14:13

Shit, I had only 1 day weekend?! (had to work on Saturday?!)

I'll try to edit it again.

Now I can't open wiki.
