Maybe to make it fair?  If this wasn't the case, I assume that you'd get everyone on the network being stingy.  Now go figure, if nobody on the network is giving enough upload bandwidth, then where will people download the files from?  There has to be an equal amount of upload/download allocated, so I guess you just have to give as much as you take.



I know. but I'm using a 3rd party program and the higher I up the kbps cap the higher my dwld rate is :P
