Filetrip was a fun site to work for many years ago and I will always be honored to have been one of the admins. Unfortunately, it also did become extremely stressful very fast after personal uploads were added and it didn't help that my life was falling apart. That being said, I am a little sad to see it go, but also rather happy because it there just no saving it and we got out Download section back on the Temp.
 
If i had a better upload speed i'd host you a file site on my own servers at home.
I already have a http file site up hosted from one of my servers. Its good for small files. I used to use it to host wii hacks/ios/cios when i was active on that iso site. Actually my entire wii hacking collection is still online.

In the first post, I quoted a response made by Costello. I forgot to include that it was also because of a lack of funding

Probably best to use the term "issues" rather than "errors". Errors indicate either functional problems or mismanagement, neither of which is the case here.
 
Good thing I backed up all the stuff I downloaded from there. Most of the stuff I got from there was NDS stuff which I'm going to throw on a website I've been working on with a colleague. I'm definitely going to miss filetrip.net though.
I'm also going to miss it. Though, good thing we have the Download section on GBATemp
 
i wonder how MEGA and co. survived, there are tons of dirty stuffs on those sites....
In the specific case of mega, the encryption is done client side and they (allegedly) can't even see what you uploaded

In general it is American law, part of the dmca (which for mysterious reasons is also generally accepted in at least half of the ~193 out of ~194 countries which didn't write the dmca) says that as long as you are not an actively moderated service (for examply by actively reviewing content that you store or transport), you are not responsible for infringement done by users as long as you agree to remove first and ask questions later in case of complaints (see: any youtube user victim of false reporting)
