What A Joke

[TheRatt]

I recently ran across the eMule file sharing program and figured I would try it. What piece of crap!!!! It's almost as bad as ShareaZaa. It can find files when I search, but never finds a source. If it does find a source it only downloads a little bit and then stops, just like Shareaza. I thought Shareaza was the biggest joke for filesharing I mean who wants to wait two frickin weaks for a download. And that's probably being generous. I have been trying to use both Shareazaa and eMule for about 3 months now and have probably only finished 10 downloads.

Bye. Go back to FT. Don't let the door hit u in the ass on the way out.

Lets just say that Emule has lots of sources, but it ain't good for those who have low patience. Sometimes you might get lucky, sometimes you don't(well when it comes to getting things like right now)

your probalby behind a router or firewall and emule is kind of on the slow side of p2p programs but it has alot of files but if you want those files you have to get overnet and for shareza its only great for using torrents for it off of suprnova.org

amen
this is a help forum, not a freakin flame fest
dont like the program, dont use it
maybe you should ask for some advice on how to use it,
instead of bashing a tried and proven p2p app

or like guit said, go back to FT and d/l all the corruption you want


1st post and hes already made friends

eMule is great. Good speeds, stable and it doesn't suffer as much from things like fake / mislabeled files, screechy MP3's, viruses that are common on the FT network. However if its not for you, you could also try Overnet which has access to the emule network and address some of the speed problems some people experience with eMule itself (there are lite versions or Overnet posted in this forum for download)

the ed2k network is the 2nd largest for a reason. it isn't a piece of crap. don't use the search engine. use verified sites like sharereactor, download 30 files, upload at 80% capacity and let it run for a long time. while you are sleeping, at school or work. i have downloaded as much as 4 GB in 18 hours on a 1500/512 connection. i only run it overnight now and i usually complete 3 of my 30 downloads each night.

eMule is a lot faster on my XP than is was on my 98. then i switched from 98 to 2000 and im getting the same speeds i had on XP.

2.8 gig d/l in just about 36 hrs
no corruption

FT, maybe youll get that in under a day, maybe
but how good is the file gonna be?
packed with a virus?
so corrupted you cant extract it?
