BullFrog Wraith Posted: 27 May 2003 16:36 GMT Total Posts: 623 | My point exactly. Since many of the files on the site have thousands of downloads to go until they're even up there, and by that time those programs will have even more, there's no point in having them up there since they'll stay up there. Unless the admins have some strange reason for doing so...
