Is it safe to update to 1.8.2 now? Do most sites allow it now?
Tell me which sites it works on for you?
Mostly wondering about the popular ones like scc, revtt, what, etc

Works on pretty much everywhere i've tried it..
Only place i couldnt use it is BCG, but hopefully they will allow it soon :)
thanks for replies.
i gave it a go and works everywhere for me, except bcg, like ninjaX said
are you too lazy to check forums/faq by yourself ?Quote:

Lighten up C not a huge deal really
All the major trackers allow it and imo it's always better to use the latest version of the client, there are a lot of less bugs than previous versions. Plus it seems I get a lot more peers connecting with this version.
i've been using it since it came out , no problem with it
mooooo
bcg dont have this client yet.. but if you are on bmtv you must do update.. cos previous are banned and they can bann you if you use it
so is there alternative to use example 1.6.1 and 1.8.2 cos 1.6.1 are on the most trackers
BCG was really annoying and didn't add it to their whitelist for like a week, but now all is well and I can't say anything bad. :D
ye my bad.. didnt checkQuote:

Everyone said its fine, a day later a bug, next one was released, again its fine, a day later another bug, so released a new version.
That is why we dont just jump in head first and allow them straight away, it will always take a week or 2 for a new client to be allowed on BCG.
I totally agree with you. Rather be safe than sorrow.
A lot of time, newer version has bug and still in beta.

and we have a white list because when we had a blacklist and seen the amount of clients that we had never heard of being used, it was silly.
You obviously know more details first hand. As an administrator or system operator, there are a lot of thing running in the background we usu don't see.
i ve just update day ago,and no problems for me...it runs fine
It's a tough choice right now. Using BMTV or seeding on BCG :O
Easy choice....Do whatever is best for you?
Seeding may be a must, so that your acct will not be jeopardized.:D
