Ares P2p stopped development /Support moves to IRC

hello
id like let ppl know Ares pretty much OVER there has not been ANY development in over a year
this doesn't meen its 100% over but most ppl moved on
we moved the support rooms to IRC
due to dead rooms and room list not working
if you want to continue ares u on your own or move to irc rooms or ares forums
we are located on frostwire servers

Thank you
Ares Support Team

I heard they (Ares) moved operations last year or previous, but thought they had pretty much died already. User-base i heard was also becoming very small.

Phex seems to be one of the wiser gnutella clients out there at present. Not falling under the basic LimeWire design umbrella which is rather faulty in recent times.

correct
as a peer evolutions moderator
and support room admin i got ins outs\
NO one comes in support rooms
and other rooms sex spanish idiots
room list doesnt work
and its gone to crap
so we moved to irc
and combined w support w frost
YES i also op fw support and fw forum

I was aware of your modding cootmaster :) High respects ;)

Pity the devs have got it wrong ... makes you wonder why.

true but going irc
there BETTER BENIFITS
24 hr room- even computer goes
Secure no hacking
24 hr support irc room
ban off server
access from ANY client or web
easy list
ares- room closes if computer goes off
lots hackiing
no support
no ban perm
rooms never work/list

So it seems that some took my (and possibly others) posts about ares being dead the wrong way.
I didn't mean that the ares network was 'dead' at all.
My point was, that it seems ares is no longer being developed, since there has been no word from the devs in over a year.
That means any bugs found will probably not be fixed.
Attacks and fake file floods of the network will probably not be dealt with.
In turn that means rogue builds will slowly take over the network, since they are still being developed. At least thats how i see it. Older and more experienced users are leaving the network, and ares is left to new users trying to deal with the problems. Often that will result in bad advice, and further degrading the state of the network.
A lot of people are getting frustrated over the fact, that problems aren't getting dealt with. Of course the most dedicated users gets frustrated the most, and ultimately they will be moving on to other programs and networks.
A lot of them already has.
Now, Ares is by no means dead (yet at least) - meaning the network is still operational. You CAN get the files you're after. You CAN get the answers to your problems - unless its a new bug found.
Read the FAQ seems to be the best advice right now.

It seems this post got a bit longer than i intended, but i hope you guys get my point. Now lets al hope that the devs will come out of hiding soon, and continue working on Ares.

this might help
