Does anyone know of a way to do this.

Which hub software is the best? Where can I find script XXX? Discuss it here...(no, this is not for advertising your hub...)

Does anyone know of a way to block none hub members from getting a users filelist or downloading untill they have become a hub member. Im thinking blocking the filelist would be the easier option as downloads dont seem to send commands to the hub.

The reason this is needed is for a private hub that has opendays to allow new people to join so we dont want people coming in on these days just to download stuff and leave without sharing.

We already have a search block sorted and running and if we can find a way to bloke the filelist that should stop them from been able to add files and hence stop them from downloading.

Any help would be great.

In LUA format would be even better but I can convert.

they'll be glad to help

blocking all p2p connections from non-members is the only option (drop all $ConnectToMe and $RevConnectToMe)

I've been speculating along the same lines... I 'just' wanted people to end up with a PM from a bot on arrival, requiring them to answer 'yes' to having read the rules. But I'm hopeless at scripting, so I figured it could be done with 2 hubs running on the machine, 1 'arrival-hub' where ppl were required to write the bot (could be register i guess) before being redirected to the same address, other port (actual hub). But damn that'll 1) require well-written bots 2) how to handle it relative to public lists? So I just dumped the idea of a public hub - it's not that there aren't enough of'em ;)

The dropping thingy sounds like the thing that could ensure proper use of the axdc, I guess - I like it, anyway. :D

*argh*
I fixed a PtokaX script that should do it,
but then I remembered a post by aMutex stating that CTM and rCTM are not sent to DataArrival due to performance issues...
