Hey mjmacky, your response to skiz is the reason most if not all online forums end up turning into useless random parts of good imformation. By posting a non suportive, non challenging or even a hint of a better solution, you have actually avoided the basic definition of what a forum is and have neither added to or taken away from the orignal post by skiz. So do this noob a favor and quit posting here.
Now to do what forums are meant to be used for. (watch and read carefully mj). The guidelines you have provided skiz are direct and easy to understand. By asking posters to think about how the forum works by asking questions to oneself before adding a new thread say, or posting an off topic post are good solutions. The thing i noticed as a noob is there isnt really a in your face read this first before you post anything kind of attention getter on the home page. Also repition of steering people to more than one place to read the simple guidelines would help i believe.
sorry repetition

Sometimes discussions get separated. Macky (also known as 'Mary') also had considerably more to say on the subject: https://filesharingtalk.com/threads/4...28#post3746528
He's actually quite articulate, and stands his ground with the best of 'em.
Once again my apologies mega. mj does present a vast assortment of spot on points about this forum. I actually came here to research filesharing of all things. I have been in chat rooms back when 14.4 modems were all the rage and making money on anything to do with the internet was undiscovered sans dial up fee. So I see now that there are two sides to this coin and will try to refrain from correcting those who only appear to be assholes but know the true ins and outs of this forum. I Thank you again sir
There is a history here that predates me by close to a decade. A LOT of people have come and gone. The culture of this site has been in place for quite some time. If you are interested, keep diving in. Today is probably a bit more scattered (threadwise) due to discussion of the policy change.
I, too, have experience with 14.4 modems. I have very fond memories of swapping copies of C64 discs back before the internet. Had pirate in my blood as a wee lad...
You say "research". Is this personal, or for school? Do you use torrents, Usenet, or other?
