Hi Phantom!
Yes this is the bearshare reality!
bearshare prefer his own nodes and wants now to use the other nodes as a safety, you should read this post:
http://www.bearshare.net/forum/showt...threadid=10411
They are all denying until Vinnie confirms that his hostcaches only supports "OWN" nodes!
Funny is that Vinnie discussed in the public, that he want to block "Xolox" because is unhealthy for the net... later "ALL" 0.4 clients - and "NOW" he is blocking all clients!?!? So "ALL" non-bearshare clients are unhealthy for the net? Which net? The "NEW" vinnie.net???
I should mention here Limewire does the same with "THEIR" router.limewire.com...
