we tried to work without a 'credit system' for a long time now. unfortunately it seems to lead to leeching without sharing with the community. our hope was that ppl/ members are 'better than that' - the majority proofed us wrong
.
anyway, below a list of how you earn credits and what we charge credits for:
credits can only be earned by personal interaction - we do not provide an option to buy credits to enable you to download files! you participate to earn credits, do not ask to buy them!!!
the idea behind the credits is not to create a way of revenue for us, hence you can't buy them! basically the idea is to force active participation in the forums and reduce the leeching seen by many members after having 5 posts accomplished. call it (i know its old) 'sharing is caring'. DS is not a 'we provide and you get what you need' platform!
the only way to 'circumvent' the credits for downloads will be to become a VIP member (which will cost you money!). some adjustment was made to the VIP level downloads per day as well. restricting your daily maximum downloads a little more than they used to be. however, we added some extra benefits at each level to increase the VIP value. they will mainly be useful for members that plan to become an active part of the forum.
if you just want to d/l what you need you have the options to pay and ignore options offered or simply look somewhere else for the files you need
.
