This is something that I have been wondering about for a long time,
How is it that there are A LOT of people out there who have a que status of say : example --- 33 in queue ( -2 of 3 ) available
notice the negative value of the first num How is this possible? has this been taken care of with ver 3.2,,,,,,,,,,,, just wondering.
sorry bout this double post I just read Dingo's post from june 17 but this is a somewhat frustrating problem considering the amount of leeching that stills persists

I believe, based on what I've seen on this, for the example you've listed, that person has 33 people in queue and they have winmx uploads set for 3. The "-2" comes into play when they currently have 5 uploads in progress.

well guy same her I have no idea what you are speaking of
because there is no possible way to have negative numbers in the queue only positive because it is speaking of the number of
slots available versus the amount of total slots....it might be possible through a hack or so not sure
but good luck..

Hey gang,
Origin I don't understand your post...I get the feeling you interpreted psychotronic420's post as indicating that the "xxx in queue" number was negative but that's not how I read it.
I ALWAYS find users with "xxx in queue (-xxx of xxx available)"
I believe the negative number is as Brewrock has stated, due to the user manually starting more users than the maximum they set the "Queueing" settings.
What I'd REALLY like to know is the REAL answer to my post of June 18...please read it.
But thats just my opinion...

Thanks Brewrock I can see why that would occur now,
Dingo, I wish I could answer your previous post, it is most likely either some creative firewall port blocking or there is a hack available somewhere I've seen what you described, on winmx for a long time you just have to keep on searching until you find a kind user that will share.
I think Winmx is a GREAT p2p proggie I have been using it for quite a while

I was thinking the same thing, TheDingo..I always thought the negative number meant that the user was manually starting those files themselves in addition the amount of files that the user is sharing.
