Freeloaders
 

I'd like to see the number of files I'm currently sharing be reflected as the value someone would need to share to not be a freeloader. And I think the choice of words for the rarely/often slider is a bit vague. What exactly are the determining factors?

Salut EllisD, that preference is only there as cosmetic (it was used in the LW 1.X series I believe), it doesn't do anything as there are no 100% sure way to tell if someone is a freeloader. Someone could not have files in his shared folder but still share his partials, and he could be helping the network by being an ultrapeer. Blocking freeloaders is great in theory but look at WinMX, many left because some were cutting downloads even if the downloaders shared gigs of files (the uploaders couldn't see them because of bugs, firewall, etc).
