I am seeing a lot of imgchili cash link in JAV torrents these days. It looks like another version of linkbee. Is it approved? It is very annoying in that it takes you to a huge ad of theirs after every click then the delayed continue link.

I had the NoScript addon running so I didn't notice it though I've also noticed its been popular since we came back on. It will be banned.

I just listed the reason. If it didn't show users an ad first it would be fine.

The difference it that linkbee, now called http://lnk.co/ (update to the forbidden list ?), does not host anything. They just give a redirect and cash to the ppl using them.

imgchili is really hosting pictures, I don't see a reason to ban them. I could say almost the same about imageporter actually... :exhausted:

Even with javascript on for imgchili.com, the first thing I see is the picture itself.

imgChili is hosting pictures but the annoying ad before the picture is unnecessary. You didn't see it this time elgringo but it happens, I can't say how often but it was enough for a user to complain which prompted me to check it out and do what I did (I got the ad before the image as well).

There are so many other imagehosts out there that do not ever do anything except show you the picture you expect to see. I think the majority of the users here want a smooth, clean and enjoyable experience devoid of malware, pop-ups/unders and other crap and that's what we attempt to provide for everyone.

Also it should be pretty clear that we do not really cater to people who try to make money off the traffic this site generates (Exclusive Uploader's are an exception because they tend to contribute media that no one else does and they followed the rules before and after they became EU's).

The screenshot below is what I just got after clicking on an imageporter thumbnail, I don't even see a way to access the actual image! That's a good example as to why imageporter and all its clones are banned. But if my fellow mods disagree with the banning of imgChili then I will go with that.

Well, I don't see what's taking you so long. I PMed kbryc08 and he promised to revise the whole situation a week(!!!) ago.
You banned imgchili, while you allow the biggest advertising dumps of the Internet such as imagetwist and imagehyper.

This is imagehyper:

IMO all image hosts should be banned from AO!

Hello,
I see that imgchili still baned on this forum, but I dont see reason. When I click on the link imgchili, we have only one click to the image. Imgchili is very good image host. I respect the decision of the Administrator to prohibit imgchili, but I beg you to once again think about your decision, and if possible allow the use of imgchili.

Best Regards.

I have a curious feeling that you maybe be a bit biased on the subject of this imagehost

What won't people do to for a few fractions of a penny? Have some dignity... :notagain:

Actually, with this image hosting, you can easily earn more than 2$ daily.
That's more than with file hosting sites.

I know it's easy to assume everyone is here to make money, but I am not. :sigh:

A picture host is for displaying pictures. :vomit: Using it for any other purpose is abusive and should not be allowed.
