THE STATISTICS ARE WRONG STOP BITCHING ABOUT THEM People, the statistics you see when connected to an ultrapeer are wrong. So stop being ****ed off because you are relying on them.
1. Once you are connected to an ultrapeer, you drop all other connections.
2. The statistics reported back are considered broken once you are connected to an ultrapeer.
a. The hosts number you get is believed to be the number of ultrapeers that peer is connected to. That isn't the total connections the peer has. It also has up to 50 other leaves that work just as you do.
b. The 'files shared and size shared' are likewise screwed up.
So STOP complaining about stuff that ISN'T really happening. PLEASE.
The biggest scewup the developers did in this release wasn't code related; it was not documenting this proccess completely and shoving the info into every new user's face.
But that isn't an excuse for people who post here to be complete twits, esp when this info has been repeated and repeated over and over again in these forums.
I was confused too when I first started using this new version. But you know what? After about 5 minutes of reading these forums, I actually had a handle on what was happening.
Instead of creating BS posts about how this version sucks which show exactly how little you really understand about what is going on. Try actually reading the forum first. |
