There has been a lot of questions lately about what is going on with the downloads. We are in the process of setting up a new system for the downloads. 

Details after the jump. 

dlsOur downloads will be in two sections. The first is the 'public' downloads that all registered users can access, which includes all our hacks and our extensive line of zMedia, made exclusively by members of ZuneBoards.com.

However some of our downloads are now going to be 'exclusive' downloads available only to those who have contributed to the site. These downloads include movies and music for your Zune, as well as our selection of tools to make your Zuning experience easier. You can access our 'exclusive' downloads a couple of ways. The first is to be a member for 3 months, to have 50 or more posts, and to become (and remain) an active, contributing member. The second way is to give something back to our community in some other way, such as by using your awesome abilities on our Graphics Crew or one of our Hacking Teams, or by contributing to the site through more conventional means. If you feel you have contributed in some large way to the site but you do not have access to the downloads, feel free to send ONE PM to one of our administrators (in dark green).

If you harass any member of the staff, spam, or disturb anyone in regards to the downloads, you WILL be locked out of the downloads indefinitely.

Now, we are still working to get this service perfected. The download manager is still down as we work on several bugs we are experiencing. However, we have a selection of downloads available in the forum, be aware the selection is limited until we work out the bugs we are having. Once we get the download manager online, you will see just the sections you are allowed to see in the download manager. If you are not a member of the 'exclusive' downloads, you will only see the 'public' downloads.

cool! even though i have been a member for more than 3 months, i always lurk and occasionally answer questions. I guess this will help get me active?

Great idea, probably help keep out the apple fanboys

So do people need to have 50 posts and have been here for 3 months, or just one or the other? If it is one or the other, there should be something like at least 20 posts if they have only been here for the 3 months, otherwise there are some people that have been here for 3 months already and they are already and will be able to continue to leech.

Very nice, though I was wondering something. For the exclusive downloads, what if we donated to the site?

Is the advertising money you boys get suddenly not enough anymore?
JawaKing   | 67.186.195.xxx | 2007-12-03 22:59:46
I should be in the clear for downloads, may have to make a couple extra posts and visit a little bit more though.
Diazari   | 72.188.142.xxx | 2007-12-03 23:10:08
Hmm, I may need to start spamming some posts. =)

Would uploading other movies and such give us access?
Surkit   | 72.193.194.xxx | 2007-12-03 23:50:55
Well please hurry up with it

If I was in the admins position I would make more stuff on this site public, lots of people come here try to read the forums and can't even do that w/o registering, it's just bad business imo [smiley=laugh]
alek   | 67.160.231.xxx | 2007-12-04 02:46:09
dont like this, ur gona lose people like me. going to a site about a mp3 player to talk is kinda scary.
Guest User   | 71.233.182.xxx | 2007-12-04 03:55:12
Agreed my friend, you don't run a community by bribing people with stuff to join, just provide a friendly environment and people will be happy to join...this isn't nazi germenay...is it?[smiley=wink]

Yeah and it ain't communism either where everyone is the same in some utopian society. It's a democracy, and last time I checked, free downloads ain't in the Bill of Rights....

Yes, it's true there are certain areas not accessible without proper permissions/status. But much of the site is open to most members...[/color]

"Yeah and it ain't communism either where everyone is the same in some utopian society. It's a democracy, and last time I checked, free downloads ain't in the Bill of Rights...." I was going for more of a soup nazi, "no download for you" type thing but thats cool too[smiley=happy]

I think it will drive some member of the site away, for not being able to access the downloads anymore. but you guys are the bosses.[smiley=think]
Guest User   | 67.182.54.xxx | 2007-12-04 15:57:53
if they're leechers, then that's the point......[smiley=laugh]
Guest User   | 76.225.188.xxx | 2007-12-06 01:32:04
If you have to pay why come to this site instead of the many others. This idea is as brilliant as a screen door on a submarine. Using the old bait and switch is devilishly clever and I am not paying you snakes.

Who said anything about paying? If you can't stick around and join in on a conversation or two then why are you coming to a forum? To download? Then go to a download site instead....
