another great idea from easy!!!

i think it would help get rid of "leeches" if in the program, their was no option to unshare the incoming files folder, cause i really hate it when i share something with someone and they dont share it. that is rude and is in my opinion against the philosophy of file sharing. i understand that some peopel dl xxx films, but that was a great addition to 3.54 that i can individually unshare a file, as to not offend anyone in a chat room i may be in

Wel, no one has the source code for winmx. So you can't really make any modifications like that.
But of course, you can use Mxmoniter, that can allow you to block people with less than a certain number of files to be automaticially cut off.

3.54 does nag you every time you start it if you have an empty library (although not if you unshare)
i think the best way to get rid of leeches is if they have an incentive to share files - which basically means discriminating against those that don't (for example a lot of users auto ignoring) - unfortunately the side effect with doing that too much (for example putting it in to the winmxgroup patch or some extra program bundled with the installer or whatever) is that it would also discriminate against new users
trying to block leeches without causing problems for new users is the biggest problem

Yeah, nobody can ever write a program that can effectively be used to differentiate between new users and leeches
[Of course this is my opinion]
You can't always get good all the time... Best block leeches but keep clearing the ignore list...

I think even new users have something to share. I've been on mx for a while now and I have downloaded lots of music, vids, and some programs. But I would say at least 1/3 of my music files, programs, and pics are files that I got from web sources, ripped cds, or ripped program discs. Even when I first started downloading I had what should be considered more than enough to share.

I'm no programmer, but wouldn't it be possible using some kind of "free trial" script? Users could have 30 days to download and share files, and if they fail to share any files within that time period, their permission to download could be revoked.

Problem: no one has the source code of winmx...
Problem 2: you think that a bunch of halfwit cheaters are worth that?
I mean there are loads of users who dont' share as they are scared to do so or like I was, when I started out with winmx, have no files to share in the first place?

because that would work so well, their client sends out "i'm allowed to leech" and you let them, their client sends out "i'm not allowed to leech" and you don't... i'm sure that would work extremely well and we can really rely on the same people who currently fake their statuses to pretend they are sharing when they aren't to suddenly start sending out the real status as a leech
