Freeloaders?? I Don't Think So..

Now that I am comfortable with LimeWire, I have set my "no stinkin' freeloaders" to a number higher than one, but less than 100...

Since I have a large and complete library, if you don't share yours, I don't share mine....

Can't we all just get along and share and share alike??

No, we're capitalists.
We only take but not give.
Life's a competition.

but

What if I am only sharing 2 large avi files? Share a movie on Gnutella and see how many requests you get.
Thanks for marking me a freeloader as I allow someone to take 10 hours to get a file they want from me.

Exactly!!!! nobody seems to share movies on Gnutella, but they sure want to download them....

hey, I never said what the number between 1 and 100 was -- it may be two, or 20, or 75 ..

Personally, I am set up to let 20 uploads at a time go thru..:confused:

I don't have a T-1 line - I am with AT&T Cable. However, I have set my bandwidth throttle to 50% for me, and 50% for the uploads, so it seems to work fairly well.

I am more interested in sharing music files, which move quickly.;)

Note that ATTBI also has an upload limit of 256Kbps or 30KB/sec roughly, 20 uploads is insane if that is your upload speed.

since I don't know what the hell I am doing, it seems to work fine -- like not studying the laws of gravity, bees can fly...
