Posted June 12, 2008 And that is why I ban these kind of leechers in my hub who have a hub ratio of 20 hubs and 1 open slot (that is all in all, not 1 per hub...). Yes! It's the hub's responsibility, the user should not take law onto him/herself. Yeah but I need to make the plugin first Thanks mate. I await in anticipation :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 13, 2008 Why you guys add this parts to apexdc if you don't want users to block others. What is your goal from adding ip guard to client? has it any other usage? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2008 Why you guys add this parts to apexdc if you don't want users to block others. What is your goal from adding ip guard to client? has it any other usage? To stop unwanted organisations looking at the files you share I guess. Apparently some people use the DC network to share material that is under copyright.

Posted June 14, 2008 it was intended for stopping antip2p companies it was a replacement for peerguardian plugin that had to many memleaks not to block slow users by ignorant users... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2008 stop this. iranmaster is noob. p2p is for sharing. he's not sharing. 1 slot isn't sharing. he thinks that p2p is only for him to download and to play god with who gonna dl from him. the Q that I ask is WHY THE HELL IGNORING USERS STILL DOESN'T WORK. in diablo hub there is one user that pops up with some stupid spam and is in ignore list but still pops up why is this. how much time is needed for this function to work I posted report for this like 2 months before and still no answer old versions has it working Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2008 You ignore a user, messages are ignored if and only if that user is not an op ie. does not have a key in that hub... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 20, 2008 You ignore a user, messages are ignored if and only if that user is not an op ie. does not have a key in that hub... Can ignoring OP's be over-ridden? It's the OP bot's that annoy me with all the adverts. Obviously PM me an answer if so, I can understand you wouldn't want all user's to be able to use this.

Posted June 20, 2008 Can ignoring OP's be over-ridden? It's the OP bot's that annoy me with all the adverts. Sort of, there are two on/off options for bot messages (doesn't work for every bot but it is rather effective still).

Posted July 11, 2008 Look guys the problem is that i can't give others more than one slot. because i'm using a 256k adsl connection and when some user downloads from me my speed becomes near zero and others can't download. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 11, 2008 Look guys the problem is that i can't give others more than one slot. because i'm using a 256k adsl connection and when some user downloads from me my speed becomes near zero and others can't download. Limit your upload then to about 16kb/s :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 13, 2008 Limit your upload then to about 16kb/s By doing this i can add one more slot and this solves nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 13, 2008 By doing this i can add one more slot and this solves nothing. Iranmaster, even with a 16 kb/s upstream connection 2 slots are ok with each 8 kb/s, this is enough for good downloading and remember, if someones loading an 800 MB movie from you, you can always give an extra slot to someone who wants to download one single MP3 so stop complaining. And one more point, if you feel like using the IP feature to block single users, then do it and stop spamming the forum!! I don't even get your problem. You have an option there too, named: 'Open new slot if speed is below ...' This is how DC++ works ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 13, 2008 well let's get to the topic. why ignore user still don't work i placed a nick in the list and he still pops up with a spam You use /ignore nick then you shouldn't get anymore PM's from this user. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 13, 2008 it was intended for stopping antip2p companies it was a replacement for peerguardian plugin that had to many memleaks not to block slow users by ignorant users... but I must say too, the peerguardian plugin with a predefined list of blocked IP ranges was a better solution for this imho.

Posted July 13, 2008 well im starting to think that the feature should be removed at all since the purpose is lost Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 13, 2008 Also i block slow users because i think a fast connection is not so expensive in any country. I cant see some one is downloading a 800MB movie from me with a 56k dialup connection and another user is waiting for a simple mp3 download. i block slow users and i think i'm right. No, the truth is you are very wrong. Learn to traffic shape to save bandwidth. Look guys the problem is that i can't give others more than one slot. because i'm using a 256k adsl connection and when some user downloads from me my speed becomes near zero and others can't download. Interesting you have what is considered a "slow" connection yet you state that it is inexpensive in any country for a fast connection. AGAIN you are wrong in any country it can cost a great deal for what is considered "fast". So with that being said, Im with toast and BM on this one. Leave dc and never come back.

Posted July 14, 2008 So with that being said, Im with toast and BM on this one. Leave dc and never come back. You can't urge him to leave DC++, but he has to obey basic rules, preventing users from downloading is simply not the purpose of DC++ If you (Iranmaster) feel like your internet connection is too slow for uploading you should consider reducing your sharesize or getting a faster internet connection That's my personal opinion about it It's not a problem of ApexDC++ P.S.: and take that right big toe out of my nose @Iranmaster :thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leave dc and never come back. i said it not expensive and i say again. i don't need a very high speed internet access. that's why i dont get it. but a user that wanna download a huge file from anothers must have a good connection.

Posted July 31, 2008 Iranmaster - you know what the horrible flaw in your logic is? True, a high-speed Internet connection is indeed affordable... however is it available? In my case, it isn't. I only have the option of my current ISP, and they (the people there) refuse to install me a faster line because of "their policy" (which kind of means that as long as you don't live in a block of flats, you're not going to have a T1/fiber from them). I could, of course, have a connection half the speed of a T1 brought in for 200$ per month, but, at that cost, I'd rather pay for a dedicated server somewhere and host my own online TV show. I'd be much better off. If you are worried that slow users download from you and there's no more room for fater users, there's a very simple sollution: more upload slots!

Posted August 27, 2008 If you are worried that slow users download from you and there's no more room for fater users, there's a very simple sollution: more upload slots! More upload slots!! Please read what i said in previous posts, I said my connection is slow and so if i increase slots my speed becomes zero kbps for users. with one slot a user can download from me at 40 KB/s but more slots = more downloaders = less speed for them. well guys let's end this discussion, i decreased my share size and it solved my problem.:) wdc likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 28, 2008 Ehm....not really, if you have 2 slots open and 1 user is downloading then the other user can use the rest of the bandwidth or vice versa....if you dont want them using all your KB, use the in-built limiter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 28, 2008 there is an option to open more slots if speed is below a threshold on the sharing tab in settings. I have never tried it myself but I assume it works as I have never heard anyone say it doesnt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
