good questions, BR!
i have wondered the same about the "instant messaging".
question answered.


Quote:
For example, some people have the instant messages set up like answering machines, so that if you message them, an automatic reply comes back, saying they are away.

Another example: certain people ALWAYS have 30 people queued up, 24 hours 7 days a week, even though they have maybe 200 songs - how likely is this to be a genuine queue?

A third example: seeing a 'connection refused' come back to me the micro-second my song-download is received by the other side - this must be set up to refuse automatically [why list songs for share and then refuse? Beats me.
i am also curious about your other 2 questions as well.
and what gets me, on the same note, is why this queue of 10031???
it gives me no accurate sense of how many are in queue or how long it will be.
of course i clear them right away, but the opennap server users are mainly the ones with queue numbers like that.

and also, are only certain servers using the "busy" message?
it will look as if the download is going to connect, but then it goes to "busy". it won't even allow u to queue........
