I'm sure it won't work...first of all, my connection is not good enough to upload almost 2 hundred 50 mb files to everyone who requests, i hardly can upload at 15 kb =P , second there are almost no requests...you know how many requests i had?2...and none of em had an ftp ready for me to upload...well in one of the requests there was an ftp but he gave me his lan ip (y'know, 192.168.0.**, that doesn't works -.- )
This was a bad idea, and will only make more 'how do i make an ftp' topics than actually bring requests...so for now i'll edit my post 'till i think of something better...which i doubt i do, i already tried http downloads (files got deleted and the ones that didn't got deleted couldn't uncompress), streamload (worked...then again, we had to try for 2 days plus i think if i want to use streamload the way it's meant to be [streambeam to people] i need to pay...i'm not going to pay just so that some peeps that also have to pay to download can download episodes, i'm not rich =P sorry) i tried kazaa (just got 2 episodes shared...and i've shared for months...i'm still sharing but don't get your hopes up too high since my firewall will probably block you ), i also tried FTP (guess what happend ) and i tried irc (worked perfectly, it was the solution to my problem...untill i installed wingate, that is.) and imesh (It crashes).
well there is limewire/gnutella, but it will be the same as kazaa since i need to share a lot before a file gets shared, and there is winmx, same as kazaa i'll need to share a lot, but i can't even connect to winmx, i haven't tried those 2 but i have reasons for not trying them.
I can't think of anything else, but IMO, irc is fine, it's just not as newbie friendly as most filesharing applications, but then again, irc was not really meant to be a filesharing application.
