Looks like the drives decided to take nap today.

We do not backup gallery data so i suggest people please keep a copy of your galleries in case something like this happens. We have enough backing up to do with real critical data like member areas and so forth.

Please contact techs on http://chat.adultbouncer.com/ so they make re-init your account so you can reupload your files.

I apologize for the inconvenience, this server was very old and again not raid5 as all our new machines are.

Sorry again.

We post this news here, if members are less important to people than galleries then we can make galleries higher priority.

Let me know.

u aren't paying for adultbouncerhost so dun complain
No where else can u find a free movie host giving u a 2MB filesize limit.

If u are serious about getting recognised by MGP owners,
then consider a dedicated server.

members area should be given higher priority than adultbouncerhost.
Uploading >50GB is no joke.
Besides rebilling matters.

IMO, i think both members area and the free host are somewhat equal. most of us need the free host to get new members. at the same time we also need our members area up and running to keep our valued members.

If a members area is down, the member can just go to another AB site if they know about any. Or go to the adultbouncer site to get a list of other sites they can go to.

If the gallery host is down, then the hard work that we took to get listed on the hun and whoever gets wasted. And blacklists start occuring, and partner accounts get revoked and so on and so on.

The gallery servers are far more important in my opinion.

Yeah, thats no fucking joke. Getting traffic to your archive and obtaining signups is by far more important after you've spent countless hours submitting, designing, cutting clips and etc to get your partner accounts and trusted by mgps. The AB hosting subdomain has already been rapidly blacklisted because of various problems. Thankfully I have my own dedicated but I can understand how people could be upset, its not that one is ungrateful its the principle of the hardwork gone down the drain. But shit happens, hopefully AB will do what they can to remedy such in the future.

WARNING:

If your site is offline then you have way to many files in your account, please contact techies once you clear your account up.

The large amount of files slows down the machine and creates lags in caching.

Please keep your files below 500 maximum.

Some people have over 1000 files.

We've also noticed people with movies above 2mb limitiation, we will suspend your account without warniung and you will be turned off for 2 weeks at a time with no consideration. You will never be able to use abhost again, so please follow our TOS.

Please follow the 2mb file limit. 4 vidoes per page maximum.

Nobody died, it wasn't an emergency.

Change.

Maximum files are 1000.

That should be more than plenty, please keep it below that. We are adding check, any sites that go above this will be suspended automatically.

Is this 2 mb each movie?

Yes. That's what "per file" means :D
