Good, it was well over due.

Don't let the door smack yer arse on the way out.

[Skillian]

Is there anyone left that supports BitComet?

[Tempestv]

my bit Comet was running great before spring break, came back afterwords, and now it is running shity.

Bye-bye SuperTorrents.

i think not
it was a good decision
the only ppl who think it wasnt, are bitcomet users(obviouslt they're not gonna like it).
but why should the rest of us suffer?
i point out bitcomets faults time and time again, yet its users still defend it.
for downloading for public trackers, fine, use it.
i dont see why any private community would want such a client though.

bitcomet favours other bitcomet users. if 2 clients request a connection, and 1 is bitcomet, and the other isnt, then the bitcomet user would get priority.
fair? - no

bitcomet hammers the tracker, over and over
good for the tracker? - no

bitcomet 0.60 had the ability to enable dht on private torrents. this defeats the purpose of private trackers.

rather than changing to a fairer client, or wanting these issues resolved, many bitcomet users used a patch to fake the client version, to stop trackers/clients knowing they were using bitcomet. each of these reasons on their own, is enough to ban bitcomet from private trackers. all of these together, is madness not to.

the only good thing ive ever seen bitcomet do is use the same encryption as azureus/µtorrent. thats my 2 cents

I think it's time most people take a look at utorrent anyways. Uses much less system resources, and has a nifty search feature on the upper right hand corner.

Azureus is good, but using it hogs system resources.

^^^agreed. uTorrent is much better than Azureus. I've used both extensively and uTorrent is the clear winner.

[j0hn]

personally ive never tried azureus, although i hear good things about it
but i run my bittorrent client 24/7, constantly seeding.
so having a client thats low in system resources is my top priority.
and µtorrent does this for me.
i like the fact azureus is open source though, says alot in itself.
