Default if it is broke, don't break it more

I wasn't holding a grudge against LimeWire for the latest version. As best as I can tell, you guys honestly thought it would help the network.
However, what we now know is that it DOESN'T.

And now, although it should be clear that this is punishing everyone on the network, from freeloaders to UltraPeers, the fine folks at LimeWire have decided to make it WORSE.

My experience has echoed everyone else's - I was using 5 connections and usually had 800 - 1200 hosts. The highest I've seen it since I "upgraded" was around 650, and I haven't had a download connect in over a week.

If LimeWire continues to "improve" by taking ideas that failed and implementing them harder, my 2-3 gigs are definitely leaving the software, maybe the network. The 30+ people who downloaded from me today will have to go elsewhere.
