upload limit reached- What??
 

What does this mean. I checked out the FAQ's and its not telling me there. Would someone please explain, and could limewire please add some explination in the FAQ's about this.

limeysailor,

From the Limewire options menu you can set the number of simultaneous uploads and or downloads you can have. This is to better handle the resources you want to devote and what you are capable of handling depending on your connection speed.

still confused
 

i dont get it. I have refined those search fields.

Does it mean, that the user who was attempting to upload was attempted to upload beyond my allocated slots per user? So If I allow two per user, that would mean that user could upload two files at any given time. Well that was not happening when I got the message. So I dont really understand.

It seems to be a strange message to receive. It might be that they were attempting to dwnld at or above your max upld rate (whatever that might be, ltd/unlimited). And there might also have been others attempting to dwnld from you but were unable to despite a slot being open, there was not enough bandwidth left for them. Another option is both your upld (& maybe) dwnld bandwidths were taken up & your searches/forced resumes conflicted with your upld bandwidth. This seems to be more likely a reason. This is only a suggestion & I might be wrong.

still not sure
 

Well that sounds like what I thought it would have meant, except I have at least 30KB/s for users to consume, and at the time there was no one using any of them. But I think you may have been right about the too many requests that were the cause of me being out of upload space. I also wasnt downloading at a high KB for my connection.
Thanks for the reply.
