Thumbs down

Those limiters were put there for a reason. More and more people are getting tired of freeloaders, not to mention their damaging to the network. LW is one of the few if not the only clients that let you have this kind of control and for that I salute the programers. I admit, I do lower the bandwith setting every once and a while when I need it for other things. But even though I do that I still leave it at a reasonable level. If you are recieving at 0KBs it's more likely that they have very little bandwith free or you just have a bad connection to them. The upload limiter cannot be lowered so low as to cut you off like that. Anyways there are better ways to screw downloaders like lowering or completely cutting off the download slots.
