I would like to be able to control the minimum allowable upload speed: to prevent modem users (i wouldn't block them most times) and to prevent really slow connections from tying-up a slot.

wow. that's so effing nice of you. elitist bastage. Something like that would only be good if it didn't allow you to download from Modem users either. I can here you say now that you never would, but I bet on swarmed downloads aqualime finds you the occasional modem user. Blocking them from you would effectively be leeching.

You don't need to worry about modem users taking up a spot anyway, that is what the 'max upload slots' setting is for. 'start upload slots' is how many you have open, but if you have bandwidth to spare, the slots increase up to whatever your ax upload slots is.

Always nice to see broadband ruin someones sharing spirit.

sorry if it came out like that but you can calm down now, I swear.

The only time I would want a min upload speed is if I'm planning on taking down the program in a couple of hours and I'm trying to spare some modem user from cutting them off in the middle of download. Just about the only thing I share is videos see...
