its occasionaly dispiriting isn't it the whiney rants of the 'gimmie gimmie' set - limewire is a very good p2p client that just does provide good returns for anyone with a minute quotient of patience - yes the 'requery' message is a pain and long ago should've been replaced with the "you're doomed" message but limewire (along with shareaza I reckon) provides a really good way to progress from someone with no files to share to someone with a store of little treasures to share all over the world -

when I first discovered mp3 files it was back in the days of "mp3filter" which for those of us unable to access napster was a godsend - gradually you learn that good rippers exist (yay audiograbber !!) and that its possible to participate more fully in the p2p community and for my money limewire has always been an 'honourable player' in the educative process (I do so hope the 'skimming' accusations are groundless)

dumping on limewire strikes me as cheap shots at easy targets by the lazy and impatient

Dude upgrade your computer or get a Mac.
This free program is the ****. I don't have to jump through all kinds of hoop like I did when I first got on IRC.
Now, all I do is put in the artist and....boom....200 jams for the hell of it.
You ever think it's not the program or the puter....maybe it's the cpu at the keyboard!

I have to agree with Unreg on one thing:thats requery sent waiting is the most annoying thing ive ever come across. Otherwise It's great. I can't find the KH theme Simple And Clean anywhere but LimeWire! One other thing thats just strange is that when I click connect under file,if Im at the search page,it will disconnect before I can do anything I might be on grass but I think its LimeWire^^'

HI ALL

Errr.... where do I start....

Ok. This thread has become something useless, and may be breaking some forum rules. All this "Limewire-sucks-'cause-it-just-does" posts are completely out of place here. Say something constructive or don't say anything at all. I think you have all misunderstood this Open Discussion thing. I don't want to start editing all your posts. Just re-read them and see what I mean. Even the very title of this thread proves what I'm saying.

agree completely - this thread is getting (got) silly - limewire IS a good p2p client and limewire ultrapeers are appreciated by folks using other clients such as shareaza

I've offered my share of criticisms (pleeeeese give up on the requery message - its just so annoying and misleading) but hey - lets get real - there's not many good gnutella options and LW is unquestionably one of the best

just lately this forum seems to have attracted a disproportionate share of disgruntled (but vocal) users that maybe says something about the latest version (that I tried and then deleted in favour of the preceding version) but even so its hard to not get a tad irked - it all smacks of "I want it all and I want it now"
