Why is my application for ftp permission not approved?

Post by Spz2022 »

I uploaded a file name
DOSRDP 1.09 (2002-10-12) [English].zip
I found that the file was deleted on the 3rd or 4th day
after I uploaded it, what went wrong?

Dude, this site is very resource-demanding, and it is not recommended for you to come.

This site has a high chance of rejection, I have uploaded resources before, but they have all been rejected. (i.e. the resources are gone on the FTP server)

I've tried to negotiate with their guys many times before, and to no avail.

I'm worried that once abandonware and beta are all
found and uploaded here, others will not be able to
obtain ftp permission to download
no.1 Well, I was thinking too much.

It was rejected because you didn't read the guidelines on what's acceptable to upload and how to prepare it. Uploading some random archive file won't do for archive access.

Read the guidelines! It's in my signature and in the tutorials section, as well as the top of the page. It's not difficult to miss. If you had read it then you would have also known why the uploads disappear from the upload folder.



SOXPENY, you still keep ignoring the rules and the guidelines. You have been warned before and given more chances than you deserved to make it right, but enough is enough. Goodbye.

People, read the guidelines and contribution requirements for archive access. A lot of new members get access every week, and clearly they manage to read them without much effort.

FTP works fine as people keep uploading to it. If you have issues you need to check your connection details and see what's mismatching, or ask on the forums if you think you did everything right.

But...But,it does not work.It says "connection failed".
Also I find that i can upload nothing.Where could I find the resources that this website does not have.
Might be the website is blocked?(Refer to the first sentence)

We can't help you as "connection failed" is generic and unhelpful. You will have to check your settings and be sure they match what's instructed on our FTP page.

And it works, others upload just fine. And it's not blocked as you wouldn't be able to post on this forum if it was. Unless your ISP blocks FTP on the port we're using, something that is out of control.

The issue is on your side and not ours.
