Why?
Re: Gamefront bans half of the world
Ouch, this is very unfortunate since Gamefront is one of the best hosts out there. Well at least they were up until this very recent change.

Supposedly because Gamefront had trouble selling ads there and was faced with heavy traffic at the same time. So basically they pulled out for financial reasons.

Not only that but it's not as secure now that they delete things after 60 days without a download.

Anyway, no worries, I'm sure there's a workaround.

Which isn't exactly new. They follow their 60 day policy since July and had a 90 days policy before that for a while iirc.
