OS4Depot, email verification

It's been a little over a year since I introduced the email verification procedure on OS4Depot.

The reason for adding it was because files were being uploaded anonymously and OS4Depot got a lot of complaints about files that was uploaded without permission from the original author.

The current mechanism means that every upload must have a valid and verified email address. With the verification having to be renewed every year.

I was just wondering what people think about this solution. Both uploaders, downloaders and those who no longer gets their files uploaded without permission.

In short:

What are your thoughts about the email verification so far.

I uploaded only once and I don't remember anything related to my email address so I guess it was so transparent that I don't remember it. So it's ok for me

@orgin

I'm fine with that.

@orgin

Works for me.

No problems here too.

I think its a good idea.

@orgin
I don't remember email verification when I uploaded eNewsReader, so either it was very easy, or it's not active . No problems from my POV, although I don't know what "Uploader" thinks about it...

@ChrisH

I still have your verification and reply email on my gmail account.

@orgin

I believe i never uploaded anything after your switch to the email verification.

But i also think it's a good thing, so keep it
