that'd suk.. then there'd be less resources.. hey an extra 2kb/s or two isnt that bad when added to 100kb/s.

Yeah, OK. Then everyone on T3 could say No dsl, No 1mb cable, etc. We could make this real elitist and No one would get sources after a while.

Thats a stupid idea. Most 56K'ers don't share anyway.

Brent don t you relize that most of the user on kazaa are 56ker if you block them from downloading off of you because of their slow speed what would you think would happen if all the 56 ker had a program that can see what tpy connection you have and if it was a high speed connection block you from downloading off of them then you would have a really hard time finding file wouldn t you

every little bit counts

and if u download from enough people you will still get a good speed

Before i got my new computer i had aol dialup with 900 songs.

I left it on all weekend and mostly all weekdays while in school.

I had so many uploads that were completed, not aborted.

I shared 1 file, so thats 3Kb/s extra for some other cable user. It still counts :D

I have 56k and i share.


The more we share the more easyer people can get files.

This is an idea that belongs to places like IRC or DC++ which do not swarm files.
KaZaa = The more the better.

Whats wrong with 56kers, i'm one and i share.

if you want to cut them off because you are getting a slow download speed, that means that you are not connected to anyone with anything except 56k, therefore if you werent downloading from them, you wouldn't be downloading anything at all, you would have a 0% complete download.

so be happy, if the only person with the file you want is a 56k user, then download a bit slower, you'll get the file in the end.

so stop complaining about them, and be happy with what you've got.

Hugo.

I was a 56Ker who shared up until a week ago when I got cable, and I know how they feel. All 56Kers are not selfish. I had almost 1000 files and was glad to share. I also hated when idiotic bandwidth-happy monsters cut me off. Now I have BB. It wouldn't be right for me to cut other people off even though they are taking up only like 3% of my bandwidth. Now what would happen if you were desperately looking for 1 file, that noone else had except for a "lowly" 56Ker? What would you do?

Ok, sure k++ allows almost unlimited connections, it take up bandwidth to connect to these 2kb/s sources. So now, instead of a 100kb/s its like 99kb/s. soon, add 20 or 30 56ks'er you lose a lot of bandwidth from the fast people.

If you think about it, a 100kb/s alone is better than 102kb/s together.

maybe you should go think about it a LITTLE bit more...like 2kb more....if your in such a hurry to get a file 2kb will make it complete in that much less time...fafuksake...some ppl just need to get a life.....but thats just my opinion. :blink:

Download from 10 56k users at 2kB/s = 20kB/s total. Not too shabby.

Block those 56k&#39;ers and what do you think your download speed is now? That&#39;s right... nothing, zero, zilch..

i&#39;m a 56k connection and i share almost 12,000 files. That is over 55 gigs of data. Please don&#39;t apply a label to all 56k people because some of us can only use what is available in our area.

I´m a 56ker... and I share... even if my conection sucks I share... you m%&.. ejem.. well

Why don´t you just increase the number of sources permitted... ta dah&#33;.. ¬¬

About my only (minor) beef with 56k users is the handful that can only download from me at 0.5 KB/sec or less (in total) yet manage to get 2 or more downloads from me at once.

There are some people in these forums who&#39;ve suggested for 56k users who want to max out their connections to set downloads to 10 or more and number of sources per download equally high.

Being that there&#39;s probably still more 56k users on Kazaa than ALL broadband users combined, if many 56k users start doing that many broadband users will find they have lots of upload bandwidth left over and people downloading from them at <0.5 KB/sec each.

I am a former 56Ker and i say being prejudice against 56Kers sucks&#33; Most of my uploads ran a little above 2k, think it was 5K. Leave them alone and let the P2P network work like it is supposed to, with everybody sharing with each other indescriminantly&#33;

Exuse me I&#39;m a 56ker and sharing over 3000 mp3 files so don&#39;t give me that crap about 56kers not sharing sometimes I even not download anything so that some impatient person can suck up all my little bandwith ;)

The guy who started this thread has a point.... think of it....
I mean, really, that would be a good start.... then a bit further on, find someone with a superfast connection and let him/her download the entire load of files that&#39;s available on kazaa and make sure you&#39;re the only one who can connect to him/her when that&#39;s done.... that way, you get loads of bandwidth either way&#33;&#33;&#33;
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA hey, even better.... get everyone to get broadband, since he has a problem with 56k I&#39;m sure he won&#39;t mind chipping in for everyone that isn&#39;t on broadband yet...

Plz would you discourage or just delete threads like this. They are completely pointless and a waste of webspace. I am on highspeed and I don&#39;t want some dumbass scaring away all of the 56kers because he or she doesn&#39;t know what the hell they are talking about. Thank You

Maybe this is a silly idea, or the wrong place to post but...

What if there was an option to grant extra upload spots if they&#39;re not using an x amount of speed. My problem is my inet only uploads around 16kb/s, and if it goes full speed then my downloads slow down too ..... So i only have 2 spots open for upload, but then you see two people speeds going 1.20kb/s or something and feels like you could open more to share more. Anyway, I noticed DC ++ has that feature to open extra slots under set conditions. I think if the file is under 1mb then thats not gonna take long for them to get anyway.

Anyone know what I mean? lol

Good Idea ^.

Now, as for you assholes that are complaining about 56kers, stop whining about it. That&#39;s the stupidest fucking opinion I&#39;ve ever heard, without those little buggers, you wouldn&#39;t have half of the downloads you have now. So stop bitching. Assholes.

I had a 56k modem and it was a long wait for stuff but when I got it I was buzzin. So on my kazaa I stop people cutting in so who ever download from me can have the full file if they want it. I dont care who gets files from me and who i get files from all i care about is that its there to have and its labelled correctly.

I now have broadband and all my stuff is labelled right or deleted so some one who waits along time for a file is not disapointed when it arrives.

All tried and tested and labelled correct &#33; :D

Face it ... a lot of everyone once came from 56k, or slower (33.6, or even slower&#33;).

The world is getting faster, but that isn&#39;t happening everywhere, everytime and everyone.

A lot of people want to max out bandwidth, so they cut off these 56k&#39;ers who are downloading from them at, let&#39;s say (worst case scenario) 0.5kb/s . Think again - if you call 0.5kb/s is cutting into your bandwidth, say, a dsl connection, you better go do maths again.

It&#39;s like worrying ONE bird will fly over your head and thinking it blocks your view of the sky.

I think that my only issue with 56kilobaud users is that they can&#39;t get enough files in a quick manner, leaving us poor xDSL users to do all the work. :P

ha ha.........the 56ker&#39;s deserve respect. there&#39;s nothing better than fighting your way thru 1 or less kbs/s for 3 hours then getting cut off right b4 it&#39;s complete and loosing the whole file. but wat do we 56ker&#39;s do.....hahahah we do a search and start over&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; Determination baby&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; that&#39;s the kinda people we 56ker&#39;s are&#33;&#33;&#33;
