With all due respect, we?re talking a criminal enterprise. I?m sure they?ll just open their money-laundering world right up to me
And to be honest, I have no desire being a part of the problem I?m trying to fight. Why should I work with them as they continue to rip other sites and sell content that is not theirs?
If they want to do things legit, then let them make the move to only allow copyright holders post material on their servers. I?ll be happy to upload material every week, allow a few signups to the filelocker in exchange for advertising, and then take my content down or replace it. My guess though is that doesn?t pay them as much as allowing several thousand signups before they take the content down.
Filelockers know what their doing. They work with the boards and the pirates to maximize profits. They are the top of the chain.

Nice little enterprise they have going. All paid for by other peoples work and stolen CC?s provided to the pirates. It?s so big and profitable; I wouldn?t be surprised to see someone very big in this business at the top of the food chain.
I have approached them very nicely, very politely and very respectfully and asked them to not allow my content on their service. Unfortunately it falls on deaf ears. I?m usually very polite and respectful in my emails. I?m only an asshole sometimes in forums
