The fight against hotlinkers is a never ending one. Hotlinking is the act of using links to gendou.com on your own private webiste or posting these links in a forum. Hotlinking is bad because 1) it drains the bandwidth that i pay for in order to share music with my members, NOT the members of some other site! and 2) Credit is not given to me for my hard work, and instead some theif gets praised for his wonderful collection of (stolen) links. Every minute, dumb people are born. The kind who think they are so cool just because they can copy-paste. Well, for them, it is time to wake up. It takes more than links to make a REAL website, and the fools who steal mine will soon learn a valuable lesson. In order to combat hotlinking, I have come up with many advanced security measures. This is so that YOU get my bandwidth, and not some people on some OTHER website. A new tactic I have just adapted works much like the fabled trojan hourse: The hotlinkers take links to my media files and post them on their free website. The terms of use on the website do not prevent them from ripping me off; what do the admins of website X care if the bandwidth of website Y is wasted? Well, they do care about their OWN website. More spacifically, the CONTENT the evil hotlinkers have posted. Once the links have long expired, they no longer point to music on my website. They eventually point your web browser to a pornography page instead! Because pornography is unacceptable content on many free websites like myspace.com or xanga.com, as soon as I let the staff know of the abuse, the hotlinker's website is deleted. LOOK OUT THEIVES, GENDOU IS WATCHING!

| Long live Gendou! Even though, as Gendou puts it, the fight against hotlinkers is a never ending one, I KNOW Gendou.com will still stand no matter what happens! |

| Nice One!! Not that I've been doing things like side "hotlinking" I honestly find no point in doing so. However, what I HAVE been doing, is letting your site get known so that you have more users willing to help with contributing to the anime media. |

I may not be one of the normal posters on the board, but isn't that a little extreme? After all, I know of sites that send hotlinking to a specific page saying it's hotlinking that caused you to be there, even when clicking on a link to media like MP3 files. But if this keeps the site up and going, I suppose I can deal with it... But what if it's an 8 year old who hotlinks and then decides to click on the link five months later?
Bad habits are hard to break. Good habits are hard to make. But unfortunately, neither usually involves swords...

i have to agree with BladeManEXE on this one. if they happen to see porn, their parents might sue someone.....

Die hotlinkers! There are other scripts out there on the net that restrict hotlinking as a side benefit. For example, explodingpanda.com offers an anti-leecher PHP script (RubberWaLL Antileech) that is known to cover the address of the source file while making protected content only available to a select few (or for gendou.com, registered users). I, for one, hope for a significant decrease in the number of hotlinkers very soon. :) |

BladeManEXE makes an interesting point. I am very careful to only "dirty" links which are HEAVILY linked to, and VERY old. This way, people who follow the rules will not "accidently" get sent to a porn site. In other words, malicious intent would be needed to be caught by this new security protocol. As for the 8 year olds, it clearly states in the rules you MUST be AT LEAST 13 years of age to register. Any 13 year old who decides to hotlink is threatening the freedom of ALL 80,000+ visitors of this site. I do not think this measure, nor any of my other security measures are "too harsh". Plus, if they dont like it, they can just leave! More bandwidth for the rest of us.
