UPDATE ON RATIO SYSTEM

The ratio system has been finalized, keeping in mind the best interests of all members. As planned earlier, it will come into effect from Nov 21, 2006. Till November 20, 2006 you will be able to download files without maintaining the ratio, but on Nov 21, the 0.5 ratio needs be maintained to further download files.

The good news is that you will not lose your precious upload bytes after 31 days, as announced earlier. The ratio system for all members(except Angels) would be that they have to maintain a ratio of 0.5. Though the bytes meter has started ticking from from Oct 10, 2006, and we have made the uploads and downloads bytes (of only Files that are in the format of .RAR and .ZIP) not to fluctuate based on the period(no. of days). The data that would be projected under the Attachment Zone would be the cumulative record of your total bytes uploaded and downloaded from Oct 10, 2006 - the start date, on which the statistics have been taken into consideration for calculating the ratio to an infinite date (unless there is any change in the policy of the ratio system at a later date). The meter will NOT be zeroed of both Uploads/downloads after 31 days.

For eg.
