A better way to promote sharing

guido i think your idea would be better off on a propierty network. To implement such an idea it has to be supported by every servent on gnutella which is impossible. Because people will use old servents and theres no guarentee that every developer would add it anyways.

Your idea would be biased towards what you share. What if a user was sharing 2 gigs of polka music and only uploaded 2 songs in a day. Even though they are sharing an enormus amount they wouldnt matter to their rating. On the contrary a user could share one small and popular file like an ebook thats about 800k big upload it a hundred times and get a high rating for sharing just one file.
