I’m new to Soulseek. Got my Nicotine+ docker set up w/ VPN through gluetun. I’m good to go. Port forwarding is working correctly and I’m sharing a little over 100GB of flacs that I have ripped personally with EAC and a couple people have downloaded some of my stuff, which is really cool. I don’t have privileges rn.
But I there are a lot of albums that I’ve lost over the years that I see on SoulSeek. I want them. But I want to make sure I don’t get blocked or banned. So, say a person has 3-5 whole albums that I want. Is it proper to just download them all at once? I’ve seen things like this on one person’s profile page:
If you start browsing my share like it is a shop and queueing everything you come across e.g. whole artist folders, I will just remove you.
So a little guidance from this community would make me feel a little more confident?
Sadly yes, I see a lot of people (although it may be more isolated to the kinds of music I search out) who have wishlists of releases they are willing to swap some files with and I have also seen a lot of people saying they will unlock files in exchange for bandcamp vouchers and the like.
