Only 5 months ago I was on dial-up, but soon, VDSL will arrive. ****ing amazing.

Yeah, although it wasn't originally supposed to be that great, but some persuasion and the weirdness of my ISP got me to have it

We were lagging behind, too, but in a couple of months we had an EXPLOSION. 400k new home broadband users!
Ok, so I downloaded that bit torrent thingee. What now? I cannot find a link.

Try "the file I want" + torrent on google, and you may have found it.
My brother is a big bit torrent fan and has told me about a great resource to find torrent links. Unfortunately, I can't remember the name

I'm not sure that I'm allowed to post this link on Apolyton, but torrenter.de is a good site for Bittorrent stuff."Paul Hanson, you should give Gibraltar back to the Spanish" - Paiktis, dramatically over-estimating my influence in diplomatic circles.

Azazel, you have a PM
I use bittorrent to download TV series usually and emule for everything else.
I stopped using DC++ because of all the "Share +30GB or go away" stupidity
Is it still the same?

It is still the same. More the limit, better it is. The best public hub I have found has a limit of 90GB share and 2000 users, and has almost 300 TB of stuff. I don't understand why you think it's stupidity? You can work your way up you know, with kazaa or hubs that have only 5GB share limit.Comment

My HD is only 20 GB and only 8GB for DL/UL and no, I can´t buy a new one, they are waaay too expensive now
I don´t know, maybe it´s because I don´t like that kind of limits in sharing.The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness: only power, pure power.

i use kazaalite. only good p2p i've found that works good on my ****ty connection 26.4k. i've actually managed to download 700+ mb files even if it takes a week. kazaalite really pisses me off sometimes though. once i left it on for a day without checking back and i only managed to download like 10mb while uploading 100mb. that's just SOO painful to see when you have a 26.4kb connection!

That's indeed stupid. OK, the best local hub has 30 GB minimal share. About a thousand unders in at all times, total share around 40-55 TB. Great. Now, for me, the problem is sharing 30 GB. I have a hard drive large enough. But, I don't even have 30 gigabytes of content! Besides, most of what I have, are programs and such, stuff useless to share.
Any videos I burn to disks shortly after downloading - seeing how a disk costs half a dollar, no reason for videos to waste HDD space. Music, I don't have gigabytes of it, like some people do, and again, most is on CD. I'd love to share, but I don't have anything to!Solver, WePlayCiv Co-Administrator

Tips:
The more you upload, the faster you move up into queues.
Adjust the max connections/20 seconds to something like 40 rather than 20
Set the maximum number of connections to something like 500
Set the maximum number of sources per file to 1000
Never set your upload limit or capacity below 10KB

If you want instant gratification, then eMule's not your bag. Go to Bittorent. eMule is highly effective if you can wait a couple of days for the file.
Cumulative UL: ~ 1 terabyte
Cumulative DL: ~ 250 gigabytesI came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

Point is... why use eMule and wait a couple of days, if you can get the same file in a few hours via BitTorrent, DC++ or Kazaa?Solver, WePlayCiv Co-Administrator

But can you get the same file? A half year ago you couldn't. At least the ones for which I was looking.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.
