Agozer Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 (edited) is there any way to disable sharing on bittorrent while you are downloading something? thanks *** oh yea that Bram Cohen dude looks like a crook.Doing so would defeat the whole purpose of BitTorrent. Well, in ABC you can stop the sharing as soon as the download is complete even though ABC would still like to continue sharing the file(s).

Gryph Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 What are you a selfish asshole? Downloading and uploading at the same time is what makes Bit torrent so great. If you're not going to upload, please don't download. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLasticSlug Posted July 7, 2004 Author Share Posted July 7, 2004 (edited) dude i dont mind uploading, but the ratios are all fuked upits always like downloaded 200mb, uploaded 827 mb, or downloaded 100mb, uploaded 400mb. Is this one person uploading or many, if its many i don’t mind, it doesn’t seem right to have such a slow ass download rate and a quicker upload rate, and if the upload rate is killing my download rate then fuk all of you, i dont need to keep my computer on for a few extra days for your benefit.

Weirdy Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 you do know that if you're on dsl you have to limit your upload rate by at least 5kb/s to get a propper download rate right? If you lower it down by 6kb/s or more more, then that's just dirty leeching. I have my max rate set to about 25kb/s out of 30kb/s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
