people people,


about sharing and stuff. If you don't share you shouldn' tbe punsihed. I'll explain why.

Here in belgium we have several broadband providers. Woow sounds cool , sounds fast.  Well to be honest it all is. But here's the catch.

If we download more then 10GB a month >>>>>> byebye connection for a whole month


if we upload more then 1.54gb a month >>>>>> byebye connection for  amonth.


You see it isn't always possible for people to share file seven if we want to, caus ei have great and lots of prgrams and game si wish to share.



So before jumping to cocnlsuions please think about it

Here in the Netherlands they have what is known as 'the fair use policy', above the set limits one just has to pay more.

Well if you reached that limit you can't participate filesharing.. simple as that...
filesharing is exchanging files..! If we don't do this all p2p will certainly die!
To continue the way you think people will say, i have a limit why not use it all for download, why upload that's bandwith i better use for myself..
Look for a provider that has a fair use policy or something like that...

WOW,I thought I had it bad with a limit of 30 gig down and 30 gig up.Last month they nailed me because I hit 45 down and 29 up load,I am almost there again this month.
What you should do is find a better provider(obviously) and then get download/upload meter and track your usage.This way you can share for at least a gig a month and you can also see how much you have downloaded so you can cut back as you reach your cap.This is what I do.

I let K.lite run 24/7 because I have broadband with no upload or download limits, and I am 100% behind the idea of sharing files for the enjoyment of everyone. I often check uploads to see if they are sharing, and only about 1 in 3 are. I understand some people have upload limits, but this does not explain the sheer number of people who upload from me in a 24 hour period who are not sharing. To my mind, there should be some kind of penalty for those who go month after month without sharing. They cause us all to suffer in lower download speeds and file availability. That this subject is brought up "again and again," should be a wake-up call for the developers of K.lite. Instead of bickering, if we put our collective minds together, I am sure we can find a workable solution.

well I started this topic (I guess for the millionth time), and after doing some resarch of prior threads and digetsting opinions from people who "hide" the folder... I think it is a mute topic. Since there are so many out there trying to "come get us filesharers", we have to protect ourselves. If disabling the ability to view the folder contents helps us out.. I am all for it. I, we, will just have to trust that people downloading from us are indeed sharing their files with others.

this seems like a good place to close this topic
