I don't understand why people are marking perfectly good files as junk.

I think some may have completely misunderstood what a junkfile is. Just because someone has a hard time getting the file it isn't junk.

Like right now I am reeeaaally slowly downloading a perfectly good videofile. The best one out there for sure of it's kind (I have previewed it) and junkrating says 20%.

When I right-click it I can not mark it as not junk, only as junk.

Do people mark a file as junk just because it says awaiting sources for a few days or because they don't have the right codec to play it ?

I am sure that was not the intension of the programmers when they made it part of Limewire

Default What I mean by JUNK

I sometimes download a file (which I think is okay, reading its title) and then after opening it, it appears to be a link to some sexprovider (of whatever you call this) with disgusting movies. For me that is JUNK ('cause I didn't ask for that, based on its title/name) and so I mark it as JUNK. When I want such a video I'll look for it. I don't want these type of files be forced upon me.
By the way, such a file often appears under a different title/name but with the same number of bits. Then I know enough......

I was talking about a perfectly good videofile that pretty much anyone would like to have. Nothing to do with porn. But it has taken a really long time to get. CD 1 was easy but it has taken me about a week to get CD 2

BTW use bitzi to look at the ratings for the file. Sure trust that a lot more than the socalled junkfilter.

right-click on searchresult choose advanced>lookup file with bitzi

By the way I have only used the filter for the 134.4 KB file so there is nothing from me that would make a 700+ MB file junk
