well, might be. but in case i'll make it updateable, i'll rather use the system from good ol' Xman!

Prefere his solution.

Does that mean that we get an Ionix-style updateable leecher list?
I like this Idea

but there is a problem with that.

In my opinion you should add the next features to the new version :
1. Boost Friends this is realy good thing.
2. posibility to choose how many slots I want to open ( 5 is enough)
If you can so pleaze cancell R/r .
1.: My whole thread got cleared to the very first point because I left this feature in my mod under certain circumstances. You gotta know, I really liked it the way it was before so I'm trying my very best to come to this point again! *lmao*
Just kidding. The point is, it is indeed forbidden and the devs won't change their mind about this feature on adding some restrictions (like ratio activation) because of the friend boost. So it'll be removed from my mod until the devs change their mind about the feature (which probably will never happen!).
2.: It will work in the next version. Since the original eMule offers 3 kbps to every client I think there is no need to focus this any more if the usual system doesn't work. It's more likely a safety check preventing the UL from getting worse but the original system. I added another limiting option that enables the user to limit his slots to a number between 60 and 256. You might wonder about this limitation but it's quiet simple! This is just for users with high upload speed like that guy in the feature request thread (sry, forgot ur name!). The upper limit is due to the data type of the variable. I used a 8 Bit unsigned integer that can take 2^8 possible combinations of Bits. Equals 256. Thought that should be enough... in case it ain't, I'll invest another byte (8 Bit equals 1 byte) so we'll have 2^16 possibilities!

Quiet confusing, huh¿

Some more words about me using the average UL as a reference for the ul speed. In case I set my max UL to like 50 kbps and ant a ping value that equals the best possible ping the avg ul will be far below those 50 kbps. Let's say it is at 38 kbps. This is a difference of 12 kbps. 12/3 equals 4! So there would be 4 slots opened, though there's no bandwith for 'em.
About the ratio. Won't be changed, it's great like this!

No one needs to upload more but 3kbps to friends and powershare on partfiles is kinda gay! *lmao* The other 2 restrictions are more likely for security issues. In case one of those borders is violated the user is doing something teribly wrong and this shouldn't happen in any way! So none of my users is able to leech the network at all. That's the way I like it!

PS: Equals equals my own equals equal! *lmao* I dunno y i used that word so often!
I am an emule-web.de member and fan!
Hate me or people will get suspicious about you! Ever wondered if it's all worth the trouble?
No, there will not be a new version of my mods. No, I do not want your PM. No, I am certain, use the board and quit sending PMs. No, I am not kidding, there will not be a new version of my mods just because of YOU asking for it!
