Re: Firewall, ratio not accurate

It is OK to be firewalled - it seems about 30% of users are. The problem with being firewalled is that you may only connect to non-firewalled users. This isn't a big issue if you are on a very active torrent. But, it can be a problem is there are only a couple of users on a torrent and you are firewalled. Actually, if you are all firewalled, it's a huge problem because no one will connect to anyone else.
