Hey Baphomet. Fancy meeting you here :)

I just want to say I was on StrongDC++ and browsing user lists worked fine. Then about a week ago - nuffin. (so I am sugegsting it may be server side) Installed Apex then but 1.4.2 so still have the issue. I'll roll back when I have time :) Work around is to download user list instead of browsing. Takes a little longer but what the hey.

I recommend people joining the Hub - many many goodies to be had.
 
Apexdc 1.4.2 is the problem, there is a bug that doesn't allow browsing of lists, so for now please Stay on 1.4.1 ... or if u are on 1.4.2 just install over your 1.4.2. Everything should work as normal again,,

Thanks to everyone for their contribution and all the op's and user's that make the hub one word " AWESOME "

Competition is still on,, you can win oodles of adsl cap

Reff, to Post above for details

ENDS , END OF APRIL... :)
 
The countdown is almost on its way as the Circle of Fire team is working against the clock to get the latest version of their website up and running. Be sure to keep your eyes on the site as we are planning some interesting and exciting new features to the site
 
In some case very good speeds, Torrents rely on seeds, however it isn't as controlled in terms of how many seeds a person has on their line, A lot of time users will just seed as much as possible, therefore giving a very slow speed in order to get a good ratio or points. The hub is ratio free, so you can download as much data as you like...
:) Just a Minimum of 40gbs Shared is asked for

PLEASE NOTE,,, SPEEDS OF THE HUB ARE NOT CONTROLLED BY THE STAFF OR ANY HUB MEMBERS.
DETERMINING FACTORS ARE :-

1. The line speed, which telkom graces upon us !!!
2. The Amount of slots a user has on their line speed
3. The Amount of slots in use uploading at the time from that user
4. The Amount of "The Same Files" that are shared on the hub.
5. Isp Shaping, And Problem with Local peering between mweb and telkom

IF EVERYONE INVITED MORE PEOPLE, THE HUB WOULD BE FASTER, SO PLEASE INVITE,

I joined the CoF server today. I registered my nick, and I've shared 50 gigs, with 3 upload slots.... but I still can't download or search. Did I miss a step? I've been trying to get ahold of an op for the past few hours, but I haven't received a response yet.

Thanks
 
Why when i join hehub.activedns.co.za:3074, does it keep asking me for the password? I cant find the password anywhere?
