Something bothers me

Something bothers me for a long time now and maybe someone can tell me why.

I see some threads from download patterns with multiple rar files, but most of the rar files are not bigger than 2 Mb.
I just saw a thread with 3 rar files, one with 1,8 Mb, one with 939.32 Kb and one with 1.07 Mb
Not only we have to pay 90 coins for download, the up-loader asks also for each rar 50 coins (total 150 coins).
Fortunately for me I have that pattern already for a long time, but there are more patterns like this one.

And therefore my question, who allows this kind of up-loads.
Maybe Im not the only one who is thinking this, but in case of this kind of threads I feel a bit like ripped off (sorry, I dont know how to call it else).
Everyone can up-load till 10 Mb.

I think those were older patterns and at that time they couldnt do 10MB per file. Did you notice the year of the upload?

This evening I downloaded a pattern from March 2013 and it was 12.25 Mb and in one rar. So I dont think its what you wrote.  Post time 2017-8-20 05:29
The pattern from my example is from july 2012. Maybe your right, but 3 rars of totaly 4 Mb?  Post time 2017-8-19 23:11

i too think it must have been an older thread.. but on a sidenote, i think 50 gc just for the download is rather "expensive" anyway... i mean sure take 5 or 10 coins, but since the "price" of patterns has steadily gone up, the inflation rate of pindiy currency is phenomenal :D One reason i refuse to pay for membership..

What annoys me is that there could be 3 or 4 rar files and a couple are duplicates. I dont need 2 of the same page but I have to download, and pay coins, because I dont know what is on the download pages before downloading it.
