There have been way too many threads about this. Files with an apostrophe in them don't work when you click them. Below is the explanation of the problem AND HOW TO GET AROUND IT from other threads on the matter.
Please DO NOT make a new thread for this. I am now closing all threads related to this problem.
Please DO NOT PM an admin about this, the explanation is right here.
For the record, I (and this goes for udo and Ndi as well) am NOT an administrator on the main web site, only the forums. I cannot fix broken links or do anything else on the main site. Only Sarah can do that. But, don't PM her about this because she knows about it and this thread right here explains things:
This has been covered in 50% of the threads in this forum. Sudario has the right idea -- they do cut off at apostrophes. The solution to this is simple. Copy/paste the link in it's entirety.
It would be smart to sticky this message somewhere - I was about to post on the same problem, and without a doubt there will be about 50 more people too incompetent and/or don't feel assed to look and see if there were others who already found the solution
For people who need confirmation, you can see here the ' mark will remove the text behind it in the link, so you'll have to put in the text yourself on the URL bar for a proper download
IMPORTANT NOTE: (that should be stickied or somethin'...)
ALL files with an ' in them are not working if you directly click on them. However, every file has its complete filename in the download page. You can copy the part from the ' and add it to the incomplete URL in your adress line and then get the mp3.
Example: Filename "sherlock's_theme.mp3"
The URL looks like that: "gh.ffshrine.org/randomnumbers/sherlock".
Add the missing "'s_theme.mp3" and vo�la.
Thanks for your attention.
Please DO NOT act like a dick about this. Guess what? The services provided by this web site are free, and nobody is obligated to put their own time and effort in to fix anything for you just because you want free soundtracks and comics or whatever. To quote Cassie one more time:
Sarah is probably doing more than you know. Just because it's not written as an update on the main site, doesn't mean something isn't being fixed.
Plus, this isn't a full time job. This isn't her responsibility. This is something she does on her own time and pays for out of pocket. She has no obligation to give serve you an endless supply of free crap. Neither do the admins, neither do the mods, neither do the people who upload music on the forums.
and maybe you missed the part where she had a loss in the family recently and the whole identity theft and subsequent loss of a serious amount of money? You've posted in the latter thread so obviously you know about that. Yeah, it would definitely be my top priority to put more and more hours into a website that was costing me thousands of dollars a month, just to satisfy the entitled dicks on the forums who are upset they can't access their free manga.
asshole
also like 99% of the broken link problems can be solved by reading through 50% of the threads on the first page of this forum :smrt:
