I Need A Way To Block People Who Don't Share!

[Tonkatsu]

I'm getting highly pissed at a couple of users.

Every time I need a file from them I get Q'd. They refuse to share with me.
They won't accept messages and they won't let me browse their shared files.

Yet, they keep trying to grab files from me!

In other words, they're freaking leeches!

I don't want to share my files with someone who won;t share with me. But aside from manually cancelling the upload every time they try to grab from me, I can;t find any way to prevent it without blocking all downloads.

If someone's being a dick and not sharing they should be blocked. Hell, they should be blacklisted, if you ask me.

Is there a way to block speciffic users? If not, then why not?

Block them in your firewall if you have one - it's that simple!

Exactly. In the K++ options you can check "Users can't get a list of all your shared files."

Well even though they dont share, share anyways thats why its called a PEER TO PEER PROGRAM.

If you get queued it means only that thoes users have their upload slots full.
In other word: They share "so much" that you just have to wait in line.

Ah, but if they're not sharing with ME then why the hell should I share with them?

And they've got messages turned off so I can't ask them nicely about it.

If they don't weant to share or be neighborly then why should I do the same?

Anyhow, as to blocking with my firewall...what if they don't have a static IP?

Dude, change that attitude. As Spock4 said

PEER TO PEER

There are no users with more or less rights to files, we're all equall. So if you just wait in line or jump SuperNodes you'll get that files. Peace.

Nobody forced you to install kazaa lite on your computer...
Nobody forces you to share.
Nobody forces you to cry about it on this forum
NOBODY GIVES A FUCK!!!!
have you got the message yet?

[Tonkatsu]

I get the message that you;re a rude, mentally impaired fucktard.

All I asked is if I can ban certain people from DLing off me.
This asshole, for instance, would be banned for being such a colossal dick.
