What is Share Faking?
This is where you falsely inflate your projected file size being shared on Direct Connect. Basically, the reasoning behind doing this is that the large and elite hubs require users to share in the range of 80+ GB to even enter their hub. Many people do not have the hard drive capacity to share that much. They feel that the 400 other hubs out there, that dont have these high requirements, are not good enough for them. So they fake their fileshare to enter these better than average hubs. Here is what the creator of the sharefaking tool says about this: first off, i don’t think my share fakers are killing dc because there are 100,000 other people who don’t use my share faker. second, if you are very smart when using your faker, you hardly get banned. lol i get banned off oh 5 hubs out of the 400 i connect to when i need some thing off dc. and this sharing ‘ideology’, you are bullshitting when u say if every body share faked and there would be no share to downloading from, thats a lame sta
