    Leeching at lans

    Do people still leech at lans these days or what? Don't get me wrong I like games as well but leeching was half the point why i and many other people used to go.

    ADLS pretty much negated the general need for leeching.
    That said, it still occurs.

    To answer, yes, leeching still goes on. Of course DGA doesn't condone pirated material, but there's often a lot of file transfers going through the network. Gigabit networks have improved much of everything though.

    Caus that was pretty much the case when I was attending DGA religiously, years ago, and I don't imagine it's changed.
