Title: Photobucket back to normal ?
Post by: Migv6 le Frog Fan on 28 May 2018, 21:06:29

Just been reading a thread on another forum which says the geezer who decided to charge a small fortune for third party hosting has been given the elbow by PB, and normal service has resumed.
Anyone here know about this ?

Even if true, it's unlikely to change anything. I mean who's going to go back

Corporate thinking has a lot to answer for

Guessing they have realised (rather late) they threw the baby out with the bath water.  ;D

I got a pleading email from them too, despite having nuked my account the day they did it.

I think too many have got the arse with it by now, me included.

To stop Public hosting was one thing but not allowing people to download there own Photos in there Original Format Quality without paying ransom money to get them back was taking the piss.

Never having used PB the issue either way didn't bother me,I did read something on another forum about this though and everyone who responded to the thread agreed that they wouldn't return to using PB under any circumstances.
