I've now officially chosen filetopia as my fav client and I really wish for more people to use it. Please make this program become what it deserves to be. It has yet to get much content but the only way it ever will become great is if people use it. It has even more potential than blubster! Join the revolution of p2p evolution! FILETOPIA!:shy :cross :devil :black :wings

can you tell me if it allows you to make your own group and chat rooms?
I may try it soon.
can you explain the features?

Well you can make make you're own chatroom and it has very nice features (ie voice chat, smilies, chatroom's look, etc.) and they have their very own little message board for each room!:devil It has safety features like encryption, bouncer (safety thing) and super-fast speeds! It also has a nice messaging system! Download it at www.filetopia.org

I agree, it's great! the community is great and it the client runs very smoothly, speed is great, and content availablilty isn't too bad anymore, still room to grow though! I personally prefer it over Blubster (obviously).

Cool =D but I'm having a wierd problem and whenever I do a search it can't find ANYTHING! Maybe I can browse you if you let me know you're name on it :D And it reminds me a lot of DC for some reason but I'm Rob-Z and hope to see ya round! (on filetopia)

yeah filetopia is good
Nothingface5384
August 29th, 2002, 06:35 PM
yea fiiletopia is awsome..i'm using ver.3.02 and it also reminds me of dc w/ the hubs..but i hope when the userbase grows that certain chat channels dont require you to share X amount of files to get in like dc.i'm really looking 4ward to this netowrk to grow..and hopfully have enough media and still have great speeds for file transfers...that would make this my permanet p2p prog..no more using certain clients for certain needs
evilmegaman
August 29th, 2002, 07:08 PM
yup! It doesn't allow channels with amount of files restrictions so it's great! And Animedood I saw you in filetopianewbies and you made a chinese man smilie then left...

Rickio
August 29th, 2002, 08:22 PM
why don't one of you guys make a chat room for zeropaid folks and we can all meet and chat their!
:-)
I haven't installed yet....I will tonight or tomorrow though..been waiting for it to come out of beta!
evilmegaman
August 29th, 2002, 08:29 PM
the beta isn't bad...
Rickio
August 29th, 2002, 08:41 PM
Beta's cool huh?
Well I used to jump on Betas all the time but it just seems programers were getting sloppy and lazy and making end users do all the work of finding and reporting bugs and all we got were messed up systems sometimes.
I will try it though...
Oh! not all programers :-)
some like EAC are very good.

yeah filetopia's cool. Ive been using it for awhile now. Not too shabby at all. It definitely has a future.
evilmegaman

hmm I'll make a zeropaid chatroom in general so meet me there!

I"ve always liked Filetopia just not enough people. I also agree with Rickio. I was also downloading betas all the time and paying for it later. I just got through rebuilding my puter (major crash). It may have been just age or it could have been all the reformatts from the bad programs I've used. I don't know... but I'm sure hesitant now to download anything that I haven't researched the crap out of. I used to be a beta tester for alot of programs and I don't think I will risk it now. I'll just have to be ..ugh... patient. I do like the idea of a ZP gathering place on Filetopia. I'll be there eventually - I've been on the bulletin boards for quite some time.

Hey Richard!
Been wondering about you bro!
glad to see you back...
yeah we all ought to get on filetopia and share some music!
I know exactly what your saying Richard. I been playing with new apps a long tome also, just got tired of the junk lot's of progammers throw at us.
You got to use a bit of discretion nowadays and what I do is browse the forums and check out the complaints. If it sounds cool I might give it a shot.
I just got to much stuff to easily replace now.
Oh gotta a copy of ghost if you want to ghost your drive man!
let me know!
evilmegaman
August 29th, 2002, 11:19 PM
Oh hey crazy horse! I was about to ask where you were! And The zeropaid chat is up so please drop by! I am Rob-Z! (I always call maself that) Seeya round!
Crazy Horse
August 29th, 2002, 11:37 PM
I missed you all too!!! I was about to go nuts. Like I said before I had a MAJOR crash. Landed up replacing My CPU, Motherboard & RAM. And just for giggles the video card and a couple of other goodies. So I should be good to go for a while.
Rickio - Definitely interested in that ghost. PM or E-mail me OK bro?
Damn - must have deleted a 1000 e-mails!!
Anyways.... Glad to be back & be able to add my 2 cents and especially "see" my great friends!!
Now.... Let's give em' HELL!!! Peace...

I tried FT (3.02) about a week ago and couldnīt find much stuff...and didnīt d/l anything with it.
It seemed like a very good program, but not much going on. When it does download, howīs the speed?
Nothingface5384
August 30th, 2002, 11:14 AM
any1 should feel free to open the zeropaid room in the general section anytime!!
Deep Thought
August 30th, 2002, 03:01 PM
General download speeds are VERY fast, i have dial-up and i usually get from 4kbs to 5kbs (very good from my crap connection) of course, it all depends on who you d/l from.
Deep Thought
August 30th, 2002, 03:56 PM
YAY! Today's average number of users on the network reached over 1,400, FT's growing!

Jabba I cannot be online all the time so I have to find a way to keep it up. In the meantime it will be at the bottom of the general list because it says 0 people are in it. But I should be there. Anyways that's great deep thought! has anyone been able to search the whole network lately?:hole
