83545 2002-09-26 12:41:00 ok, now that there are participation levels. I dont want people downloading from me who dont share themselves, the problem being that the downloads are very persistant... if I cancel someone, they start up again 2 seconds later....

is there a way to block a user?

83546 2002-09-26 13:05:00 I don't see how you can tell if someone uploading off you, isn't sharing.

If you go to Tools > Traffic, you can tick "Disable Sharing Of Files with Other Users" But I am not sure if that stops you from downloading.

Personally, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you are getting what you want and the others are getting what they want, everyone is happy.

83547 2002-09-26 13:10:00 previously that was my position, but I would prefer people who dont have something in return not have access to what I share.

the participation level is like a scale, you download lots the participation goes down, you have lots shared & uploaded the participation goes up. I left my PC running today & came home to a participation of 179... was quite happy, then I saw all these people uploading off me with participation of zero & was kinda annoyed

83548 2002-09-26 14:53:00 think positive!
leave it on for those who share, and let those who don't look somewhere else when you have what you want.

83549 2002-09-26 23:01:00 You are wasting your time worrying about those with low participation. There is a rather successful hack that bumps your particiation to whatever level you want (mine is currently on the maximum of 1000, but I can set it to what I want). So, those with high ratings are not guaranteed to afctually have earned them.

Tough luck aye!
