Stop using Morpheus!!!

[2001team]

Morpheus is destroying the Gnutella network!! Everybody who is using the Gnutella network should instead use Gnucleus, Shareaza and/or Xolox. Death to Morpheus!!

[Roamerick]

Whoever is using Morpheus is getting scammed. Wise up and use the original, and now more advanced version, Gnucleus.

no doubt, everyone should be useing Gnucleus or XoloX. Morpheus bites the big one.

That's old news dude. Morph dropped out of list of the proggies I use long time ago.

When people hear "Morpheus", they still think that is the good old version, when it was great. But now it's just a scam. There are better guntella clients instead of morpheus, so I agreed! we should stop using morpheus.

If you want a spyfree fasttrack client, use kazaalite (www.cleanclients.tk)

The reason I sort of posted that is because I was on Shareaza (which is good) and it has a feature where you can find which app your downloading from and I see half of them with Morpheus or other pure crap such as Limewire and Bearshare. We need to encourage the amateur file sharers to use Gnucleus, Xolox or Shareaza!!

"Morpheus is destroying the Gnutella network!! "
- Morpheus comprises over 50% of the network so if they wanted to destroy it, it would have been gone a long time ago. and secondly, every body loves gnucleus and I doubt that the people over at morpheus and company changed the basic routing mechanisms from gnucleus (from the looks of it, they didn't change anything at all except adding on spyware and such).

They have added no spyware with 1.9

How can it be destroying the network? It has rather grown the network quite considerably

[johoja]

morpheus isnt really destorying the network its thes ame thing as gnucleus 1.8.2 i think..thats what the source code was based on..morhpheus has really helped gnutella grow from 50,000 to about 150,000 ... the only thing thats hurtying the network it oudated clients that dont support the newer techonlogies...like hashing...and barely anyone supports the browse host only shareaza and the limewire beta... the only thing that i can think of thats hurting the network is bearshare blocking other clients.. they download from us but they dot upload thats pretty bitchy. oh and that qtrax or something the one that hammers never tried it though

[evilmegaman]

The new morpheus has no spyware?Can somebody prove this

[Peerless]

No spyware??? Ok, right, just a hell of a lot of adware.

As far as destroying the network, well they are. For whatever reason, when connected to morpheus hosts, my search results go WAY down, and I have even seen indications that when a Morpheus ultrapeer tries to connect to me, which they seem to do in droves, I lose a good download connection at the same time. This is what I call messing up the network. 1.9 comes with the default setting as being an ultrapeer, which we all know most users don't have a good enough connection to qualify for.

[slacker52]

the best reason to stop using morpheus is 1.9 has the most god-awful-piece-of-shte installer

The reason why we dont like morpheus and say it is destroying the network is because everyone who is using it is an ultrapeer, even when they shouldnt be. most morpheus users dont even know what an ultrappeer is. So in general Gnucleus and morpheus ultrapeers suck. But Gnucleus is still much better than morpheus

[evilmegaman]

does morpheus make ppl be ultrapeers?

[jabba|xtra]

No, its just that most of its users are not very well informed and wouldnt know the differrnce between an ultrapeer and a peer so they just leave the default settings, which is to be an ultrapeer.

[123_kid]

um...i don't want to burst any ones bubble but an ultrapeer is an ultrapeer. some morpheus ultrapeers are awesome, for example, i remember seeing one which was routing 50kbs of messages. the only reason people think morpheus ultrapeers are so bad is because in shareaza, the host counts are typically very low. that is the way gnucleus (and later on morpheus) was designed, to save bandwidth. using morpheus ultrapeers, i got over 2900 results on a search for a certain shadowy DJ (i wasn't using morpheus but all but one of my 8 ultrapeers was morpheus, the other one being gnucleus). i'm not defending morpheus because i like it (i don't), but i'm defending it because those who are attacking it are misinformed.
