Usernames in Limewire???
 
Hi, I was just using the best p2p program (Limewire of course) and as I used to use other p2p apps such as WinMX and eMule,

I think a username system would be a good idea to go with the new jabber implemented chat system too.

Just a thought for the devs or anyone else...

Post your views please.

Limeplugged. :D

That could mean a lot of usernames. And where would the database of usernames be so they aren't repeated as in email names, etc. Actually it's not a bad idea. I recently read some comments about this concept in this section somewhere.

Found it! Responses to this are interspersed throughout this following thread: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...5&pagenumber=1

Thanks, I saw that it said "It would not work on the Gnutella Network. I mean if Gnutella does turn into an eDonkey kind of network with much much larger files...

I've changed my mind now :D

Usernames would just cause more problems with privacy issues and accounts being hacked etc...

A post needs to be though thoroughly through before being posted!

Lesson Learned! :cool:
