Ok.. now I'll ask a stupid question. What makes you ASSUME that people are leeching off you? I say ASSUME because there is NO way that you could possibly know.. what if they are simply using the "privacy patch"?? Does that automatically relegate them to this rank??Originally posted by freshfighter17@1 May 2003 - 11:29
Any way at all to block leeches who refuse to share online but will gratefully rip from my broadband tinted hands???
Hey, I share EVERYTHING I have.. with WHOEVER wants it.. but you're not going to see my list of shares either, I feel that as long as I'm sharing my files, then I did my part.. you type in what your looking for, and wallah..its yours, if I have it, "no questions asked."
However, I'll be damned if I'm going to show a list of all my shares so that some $#!*bag can come along and copy it to send to my ISP as "evidence".
.. its just not gonna happen. Over the past couple of months I have read countless posts on "leeching".. and have seen the definition of the word twisted and distorted to suit whatever the authors opinion happens to be,everything from "I cant see his list" to "he's not allocating enough bandwidth".. I've been cut off many times because I dont show my list.. I just move on, and recommend that everyone do likewise.
If you're going to sit there and monitor every upload.. its not the "leechers" that you should be worrying about.
