Hi

 

The file of my table "Nemesis" is reported as broken.

 

I don't know who posted this message.

 

What does it mean ?

I've been getting a bunch too. Someone probably needs to restart their browser or clear their cache.

I've been worried about this happening to me. You'd think people would see other reviews and comments of the table working fine and realize "it's me. Hi. I'm the problem it's me."

There's an old poker saying ... if you look around the table and can't see who the fool is ... it's YOU!     :D

Not a problem ! it was just a question, when I click on your avatar, nothing happens, so I just wanted to know who reported this file as broken.

 

Did you try again ?

I had one of these a few weeks ago. On the download page up the top where it tells you its been reported broken it said why it was reported and somehow i found who reported it , i think it also sent me a pm or notification which led to who reported it.

Sometimes there may be a problem with the file, so it is worth checking, but most of the times it is just a bad download, so the person simply needs to download it again.

You would think a Report button would work better, as that would notify Admins of the persons problem, without adding a big sign that says BROKEN on the download, which is possibly discouraging others from downloading the file.

I am sure other uploaders do not like seeing their upload labeled as BROKEN.

Most people will write in Support topic if something is missing, or zip is corrupted, and if there was a problem with file, it was quickly remedied by the author.

Almost every time a file is labeled Broken, it is not.

As a matter of fact, I have never found a Broken file to be broken on this site.
