Note:
We are only a small new site so there are not many rules currently and I hope it stays like this. As time goes on problems will occur and we have to create new rules and enforce them. Can all usrs be sure they read this thread regular as failing to follow these few simple rules will risk in your accounts being warned or worse case deleted/banned from system.


Rule 1: No Multiply Accounts
The system is set up so a user can register and download files via their account. Each account is givne a certain ammount of bandwidth to download each day because we only have a certain ammount of bandwidth to use each month. If users are found with multiply accounts all accounts will be deleted straight away.

The reason for this rule is that we are a non-profit website supported by our users. If we let everyone have unlimited downloads we would be closed down or pennyless within a week and this is why we have to cap how much everyone can download daily. The people with more than one account are risking this sites uptime and so don't belong here.

If you want accounts with unlimited download bandwidth then please either support the site/servers with a donation or help our here by uploading files to us.

Rule 2: File upload types
When uploading files to the website we ask you try to only upload files with the following extensions: .rar/.cbr, .zip/.cbz, jpg

The reason we ask this is that we DO NOT support PDF files as they are normally lower quality images compared to cbr/cbz files. CBz/r files can be opened straight away with a comic book reader software and display high quality images. Users are then able to unzip/rar the files and use the images for their own personal use, unlike PDF files where they are protected.

If you require any help making digital comics please ask for help in the support room.

Rule 3 Mailinator.com accounts
The download site we provide is totally free and by using it you agree to follow our small account of rules and use the site as we have set it out. Due to this I have decided delete all download accounts that were registered using the email addy: mailinator.com

The reason? Well since we are a free site and we DO NOT spam there is no need for you to set up fake accounts to register one or more accounts. First the user who today registered 7 accounts under different email addy's is the small group of people who are using too much of our bandwidth and risking the future of this account.

The reason we ask you provide a valid email addy is so we can try and control how many accounts you have and also if we ever have problems or change url's etc its useful to have a valid email addy to send you one email to inform you. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to access this great site.
