Prospero Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Hello I am having a problem trying to download pinball x front end. There is no download link - it says sorry you don't have permission to download this file. I have not downloaded anything from this site so I know I have not taken more than my allotted amount. Am I missing something here? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kh39540 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 I'm pretty new here myself. But, if I remember right, it wouldn't let me download anything until I logged in and I think I had to verify my email address... but, obviously you're logged in.

Prospero Posted September 21, 2019 Author Share Posted September 21, 2019 Hi kh Yep all logged in and email verified. Some files I can download but not the pinball x file for some reason. Of course that's the one I really need. I'll have to just keep trying. Thanks tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Hi, The control panel is telling me you joined a month ago and have downloaded 16 files (775mb) and 86mb today. Including PinballX that may well exceed the limit for a non contributing person. Otherwise has your account been hacked? Are you using a shared proxy server or VPN? As you said initially you have downloaded nothing from this site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 PS: There is nothing in the license that prohibits another site hosting or sharing the file if you want to download it eleswhere or host it yourself for others. PS 2: Im not hiding the fact either that by providing a good product for free I am hoping users will sign up and contribute something. I am well aware of the attitude that everythig on the internet should be free though despite the time and cost for some. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prospero Posted September 23, 2019 Author Share Posted September 23, 2019 Hi Mike No not yet. I am going to wait a week and see if i can when my allotted download limit resets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospero Posted September 23, 2019 Author Share Posted September 23, 2019 Hi Tom Thanks for getting back to me. When I click on a download link, it opens and then tells me I have exceeded my download limit, which is fine. I understand and appreciate that. However for pinball x download it never has a download option. It always says i dont have permission. Sorry for the confusion. I had forgotten that I did download the 86mb file. I am happy to wait and see if the download becomes available after my limit resets. I hope you realise that I never for one second thought that my not being able to download it was to try and make me contribute. That thought never crossed my mind. I appreciate that you offer a superb program free of charge and that says a lot about you. I really do apologise if what i wrote upset you in some way. Your second post seemed a tad tense.

Tom Speirs Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Thanks buddy. Plenty who don't agree with you though and are not too keen. I keep going because of people like you and new people who agree. Cheers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
