today, which states:

Porn: Pornographic material is not strictly banned on pixeldrain. But in order to comply with international regulations I have to prevent it from spreading too far. For this reason pornographic videos and images can be reported through the file reporting form. Once reported the file will be removed from public viewing. The IP address of the uploader will not be banned, and if the file was uploaded with an account, the owner of the file will still be able to download their files. This

Basically, uploading it isn't against the rules, but if it's reported then it's deleted (just with no punishment to the uploader). This is effectively a ban - why would we promote a host that bans porn given that's pretty much the entire point of this site?

Otherwise, should Pixeldrain be added to the "unreliable hosts" list in the Mirroring Policy? I'd say a host that deletes porn as soon as it's reported is pretty unreliable for the purposes of this site, and we all know that there'll be at least one asshole who goes around reporting Pixeldrain links.

I have been saying this the week the put the 5gb limit then your download speed is dropped to like 600kbps for 24hrs. Worst file host allowed on this forum.

IMO the reason why porn is now banned 80% of the files uploaded is porn and 80% that is uploaded is from the users of this forum.

Thing is, Pixeldrain doesn't delete the content once reported.

Once your link is down, you (uploader) can still access it and download it. That makes it more reliable than Gofile, which isn't blacklisted.

I do think the Unreliable Hosts should be updated though, as Mega requires that you pay to download files more than 5 GB in one sitting, and is known to purge accounts over DMCA'd material.

All that said, Pixeldrain let's you (user) keep the file, so it's still bearable compared to worse hosts.

*Update:

They're fully committing to IP bans preventing uploads if you get 5 files DMCA'd and they are working to start blocking accounts entirely, which may have other effects when implemented.

Account blocking hasn't been set in motion yet, but IP bans prevent the download of a DMCA'd file by anyone other than yourself, as well as the upload of any file that's been DMCA'd on anyone's account.

I have seen a decent amount of adult content deleted in the last 2 weeks IMO #1 that should be banned from this forum

If it is not gonna be banned any time soon the max size should be for this file host on this forum 2gb. I hate seeing 6gb and 8gb file upload to this garbage you download 5gb then the rest of the download you get 600kbps your IP is reset after 30 to 32 hrs that so annoying.

It would be better to ban it now then have 1k to 2500 links all dead at the same time when the finally ban adult content for good it is coming in 3 to 5 weeks.

If you want to upload 4gb+ files upload them to Cyberfile or 1Fichier.

As someone who has 2tb worth of Pixeldrain storage being used for files shared here, I'd rather ban Gofile instead of PD. Plus I estiimate I've had 1-2% of my content removed over the last 3 years or so.

You should move everything else where it will be deleted sooner than later

Gofile is amazing I can download 35gb+ in a day only thing I do not like about this file host 80% of files stay up for 2 or 3 weeks max then they are deleted
