Revision of membership

Maybe we need revision of hub membership before new tour. The reason for it is that we have people that tape shows and share them, we have people that do lots of trades and share new stuff in the hub, then we have people that help sharing stuff or share many requests, we have people that do all of these things mentioned before and finally we have people that come on daily basis or from time to time and download what they need and go away. Should I use word "leech"?

We know very well who is bringing stuff in bigger or smaller amount to the hub. What we will do about others?

I know it's hard to get new stuff now because a lot of old bootlegs are already shared and last tour has finished one year ago, but now new tour will come and same thing will happen again. Same people will tape and trade and others will just watch.

What do you think about revision?
 
Revision

I suppose that would be a good idea.Im having to redowload stuff as my boots were stored on a external hard drive.Not sure what happened to it but i lost them all.Its a long process having to redownload them :-(.
I agree it is difficult to share anything thats not already on the hub apart from when someone may ask for a request.
 
Thanx for talking about this Bob.
I really think that the hub needs a revision of memberships.
About the word "leech" or "leecher", i don't know if it is the good word to use, but that's a fact that there are hubbers who don't do anything for the hub and just download everything they can. Like Bob mentionned it, there are several ways to make the hub live : bringing new bootlegs (from trades or masters in case of tapers), writing stuffs on Maiden-World Live, talking into the main chat, release new stuffs (VHS=> dvd, etc...)
Unfortunately, i think that few members don't do anything of things i mentionned above.

About the fact that almost all old boots were already shared, i don't share the same point of view with you Bob. There are plenty of our old boots which are from high gen, or are incompleted and which need upgrade.
Since the last autumn, i work of finding this kind of stuff... and i do think that some other hubbers (who don't work very much for the hub) could also do this and bring these upgrade to the hub.
Same thing for the DVDs, there are tons of DVD which exist and which were never shared to the hub ...

And with the new tour, i am very sure that we will see the come back of plenty of hubbers we didn't see for a long time ....

That's not how the thing must be IMO ... We have the great chance to have the hub .... and if we want to see it lives, everybody must be involved and must work for it ... It is not a place just for downloading (leeching ?) ...it is also a place to share our passion for Maiden, to communicate etc....
Hubbers who only want to download can do it with torrent ...
 
Hello.

Good points Bobo and Seb. As speaking for myself, I have been very quiet due to authorities problems here in my country. But I think now I can do little more for hub. There are fe. many dvd's on the incoming list which are very old adds. Is it okay to realese them? Many of members maybe already have them but they haven't realesed or shared.

I saw one time list about who have realesed shows. Bobo, can you maybe post it again here or in main chat?

I have been part of lossless hub from it's start and what can I say, I have got awesome friends and of course many many shows from band that I love very much. Hope we can keep this together for many years on :)


Sorry about my bad english......
 
I havent been very active the last couple of months, since i've away from my computer, which runs my DC++. I'm am however back, and should help sharing all the new boots as soon as i get them.
 
well, im one of the oldest members of the hub and ill stay there leeching :D
but seriously, as im not trading that much anymore i only shared some other bands DVDs in the past few months.. and actually i didnt grab much stuff from the hub anyways but i intend to tape and share stuff at the hub ASAP 8)

and i think a revision would be good, long time you dont clean up the hub !
 
I too was one of the first people in the hub in fact i was one of the staff members before it all changed.I ended up working away from home for a long time and have only just moved back home a few months ago.Because of work commitments etc i had to stop trading as before that i was a regular trader.I remember bringing a few new shows to the hub.All i can do now is share what i have and hopefully anything of the new tour too
 
Some Hubbers seem to go from one extreme to another, I did not manage to share very much when I first joined, hopefully that has changed now, I think a long term review of what hubbers bring to the hub and also a short term review, see why things have changed. A ratio of Downloads to uploads maybe useful, establish ration as an acceptance criteria . if the hubbers does not meet that criteria than a viability review should be undertaken. as you said Bobo certian hubbers may not bring alot the hub but benefit it in other ways.

I am assuming you are not happy with the present situation, I only use the Hub for Maiden stuff as I am not really interested in collecting bootlegs by other bands,
 
What criteria do you use? Number of boots supplied, number of boots you help share? etc.

I have been away a fair bit over last 6 months so have used this time to catch up in the holes in my shows as i could leave the computer on auto... and have been having some down time during the "off season", but I am sure once the tour starts again people will become more active again.

I have also been re-building machine recently which will allow me hard disc space to now put up online all the maiden audio shows.

With most of the shows in the hub that are circulating it is harder lately to bring new stuff to the hub, and as most people have it I dare say that a lot of people have fallen into a bit of a lull as there is little need to stay online to spread the shows around as there isn't a lot for people to download.

I would expect that would change in approx 2 weeks...
 
Bobo, If you have any ideas of a web based system to track users / show what's been added etc by which users I definitely think Jon would be up for producing it as a reference point.

If you have any ideas, shoot over a PM

That's true John. But i don't think that Bob (and me) was thinking about that, but rather to hubbers who don't do anything for the hub since they were accepted to come into the hub. Like i have mentionned it, there are plenty ways to make the hub lives : share boots, dvd, working for the Maiden-Workd Live reviews, making dvd and for sure talking in main chat.

About the fact that the hub has plenty of bootlegs and so that it is hard to find new, it is wrong... When i see that maybe 10 dvds were shared since the beginning of the year (while by far more were shared the previous years), i don't understand ... There are so much dvds out there to share.
About audio, i have also mentionned it, there are tons of upgrades available (if you take the time to look for) we need (plenty of old shows .we have are high gen or incomplete ....)
IMO, the problem is not with people who always work for the hub (like all the ones who replied to this thread :D ), but with some hubbers who NEVER did anything, never bring new stuff but download all the audio & DVD bootlegs shared by other on the hub... and just come here from time to time just to leech, without taking the time to say an "hello", a "thanx"..

I can assume you that these people don't make want me to share so much stuff like i did these last years ...
 
Hi men...

I think it shouldn't be a bad idea. I'm agree with all of you. Always is good to get things above a little control, and more when there are people working hard in this hub (thank you to all of you men).

As Bobo says all we know who is who...or not? In this case this idea helps to know.
So awaiting news. And sorry for my poor english.

P.D.: MaidenTeeside...you too!!! I know what yout talking about...I lost all on a "windows" attack. Good job Bill.
 
i think revision is a good idea and probably we can invite some big traders/tapers also who are not member of the hub yet.. just to make the hub stronger.
 
Members and their releases. First number is Maiden related and second is other bands. I don't have time to check how many masters have been shared by members which is also important.

Not that I am not honoured to be in the top 10 but I think that your list in order should be made on base of Iron Maiden bootlegs.

Anyone can share lots of other bands (Dime for example is a unlimited source for lots of bands)

:roll: :x

Instead of still asking for more from others, why not finding more bootlegs by yourself in trading and sharing these to to hub ....

The problem is not finding more traders you know ... the problem is to make understand to some actual hubbers that they could bring new stuffs here and not just leeching hundreds of bootlegs that other hubbers brang there after having spent a lot of time and money to get and share ...

If you want to know, i have at least 300 Maiden audio bootlegs (upgrade, alternate versions etc..) and at least 200 Maiden DVD
that the hub don't have ... BUT .... i won't share any of these if people who still ask for more won't do their part of the job

Got it ??
