They sure would...then they'd come here and complain that it doesn't work.

As good an idea as that might be (deleting or correctly naming fake files), I don't think that will ever happen, but one thing that ppl can easily do, is to write in the comments of a fake file, that it's a fake, and write the real name.

That helps, because when U search for GTA 3 ,for example, and find a file with, say, 70 sources, but then U see one source that says the file is a fake, U can be sure (almost) that all those 69 other's are also fakes.....but if U had re-named or deleted that fake file, the unfoutunate searcher would not know that the file is a fake

So in theory, both ways eliminate fake files, but I think that it's a lot more feasible for, like 10 ppl who have a fake file just say that it's a fake, the have ALL ppl who have the fake file delete it from theys comps

Who mentioned fake files.

The thread is about files that don't work.

Have you ever thought that reading the previous posts may be a good idea

WTF are U talking about??!! This post IS about fake files:

good tip, if everybody do that the fake downloads will disappear (in long time) and the real downloads will stay  

I just wanted to tell you sharers that if you download a game that dosnt work dont share it just delete it so other people dont waste there time downloading it.

Unless I suddenly stopped being able to read english, the above quotes are talking about fake files, and how to eliminate them from kazaa....maby U should know that files that don't work and fake files are the same thing

What would you rename it to "Championship Manager 4 That doesn't work"

Actually I am convinced people would download a file with that name.

I am aflutter with anticipation.

Could you post a hash please?

[ooo]

games has a gameworld section.... pandaman stop trying to get posts counts like this..... if u are

put it in gameworld >> verified lol

If its a fake, delete it or change the Integrity to "Poor".

When you do a search on Kazaa, it automatically averages the integrity rating out, so if enough people are honest about the file integrity, then it comes up as "Poor".

If you delete the file, then there are less fakes around globally - if you do a search for something, its best to download the file that has the most sources - fakes will have either less sources or a low integrity rating.

Yes I totally agree, also people should name fake files as the correct file. I see some files with a cetain name as the title but something completely different as the file name. These pricks who do this are just as well as the fake files are just a waste of a life!
