IÃ‚Â´m just interested in it because i found some hubs wich have 1000+ users in the hublist and in the hub are only about 100 users

So, I will answer your question : Yes it is possible, and I hope you won't learn how in this forum.

dreamland hublist takes so long to update so it will show more or less than whats in the hub at that time

actuly the reason to do so woudl be to make it look like theres 1000 users and when they try to connect there told it's full and redirected to a diffrent hub

and personaly i dont think there will be away to stop them from doing it

theres a few diffrent ways

a script can be made to show 1000 users how can you stop that?

theres other ways to but alot harder editing the program

Well, the hublist will have to login into the hub, and check it. Not very hard. It will detect fake hubs in the same way you do.

Take a sheet of paper, write "Hub" on it, pin it on your forehead

Sandos: Will the Dreamland list be 'cleaned up' anytime soon ?

It's almost to the point that the first page of hubs listed is totally useless.

I'd recommend banning the fake hubs and those that are being redirected to. Then see how long the faking continues....

Thanks,
Just

The only problem is, that hubs will attempt to cheat that one particular client (hublist) using forged userlist. While everyone else will be redirected to some lame hub.
Maybe we should consider similar rating system for hubs as user rating system or integrate them together. The goal is that faking hubs will never get so high in lists, because they'll be missing appropriate rating.
