Once again, the discussion is all about numbers and not about sharing music. I share obscure stuff here because I like being nice to music lovers. I own a lot of obscure stuff, so my ratio quickly ended up in bulgy-eyes territory, which means that somewhere out there are people with ratio holes that are 'my fault'. Should I feel bad about this? No.

Do I want someone on 0.51 to be able to get something they have been looking for for years from me? Yes!
Do I want someone on 0.49 to be able to get something they have been looking for for years from me? Yes!
Do I want someone on 0.49 downloading something they don't intend listening to from me just because seeding it might get them to 0.51? Not really.

Hey, here's a user who would prefer that you DIDN'T raise your ratio if your HEART isn't in it. I bet you wish your moral compass was also pointing at magnetic nerd.


I think you're misreading this one. I think he's saying that he would prefer people not download stuff they won't listen to just to game the ratio system. Which I agree with, and I'm pretty sure you do too.

            I will forgive him if this is so, but he should've said "don't care" instead. NT by Fussbett 02/05/2007, 3:06pm PST NEW
