Someone who shares 2 files may still have a file I can't find anywhere else... and to dicourage them from using the network woud just be a loss for me and everyoe else. SOme people jsut simply don't have that many files to share, that doesn't make them a freeloader. Now, someone who is sharing no files is a little different, but still as said earlier, they all glue the network together, so let's keep this all open.
