THC applaudes Sharon. Far to much for me to read but from what I skimmed I get the just. The link to the Codeen/PL hosts is all the info you need, no sense arguing, for this board to admit it and impliment it would diminish the "huge" (or percieved) lists by 1/2. Then even the knuckleheads who have not taken the time to look into where the proxies really come from, why the links work sometimes and don't others, why fpl leeches 0 and I can go to the site and leech 100, why the default fpl format always starts @ 0|1 when there are many targets that their current listings start @ 800 leeching 799 useless pages, not to mention who really runs 3/4 of the boards that are defaults in the fpl list would see something was fishy. Glance sometime at the big contributors @ alive, stayinvisible, proxyheaven and here to name a few. Better yet don't look at names look at posted ip:ports, a search easily puts an org chart together.
But more power to 'em, fpl is a great little tool that could be amazing, with some coding focused on flexibility instead of profit. Thanks god someone is rustlin up the lazy and unknowing that would rather buy a $100 tool than spend time understanding what they are doing and why, not just for free, but at the payment of knowledge they would gain. Keeps them out of the real forums asking silly questions and killing lists.
Dammmm though, any fact about Charon was dodged like a fighter pilot!! Impressive I must say, to bad this thread is longer than 95% of the people here would bother to read, or investigate to see which of you too were not wearing you @$$ for a hat.
@ any rate the 2 tools target 2 completely different users, fpl is for the idiots that are button pushers who do not want to think or even know what is occurring, if it is working and why or how it does. To lazy to burden themselves with even so much as adding or better yet removing so much that one should from the default list. I almost fell out of my chair when I saw the custom list actually worked and was offered, I wonder what reason we will hear when, like the proxy dump, it is taken away. While Charon caters to the idiots that are cheap enough, proud enough, or interested enough in how everything works to actually have a tool that you must understand how everything works and configure it all to your own specifications at every level as the creator intended.
You hit it on the nose Sharon, your only limitation with Charon is yourself, Anyone disagree's is an ars, its free, you can see and change how EVERYTHING works (unlike fpl you cannot see anything but a quick ressetting text box keeps ya dumb that way, can't record data or look at history, can't filter or focus on anything specific, can't alter on the fly, use more than 1 judge, sort, pause and resume and costs you money) proof is easily found to these statements by going to the boards in which you leech. The creator has spent years at the most known boards everywhere, answering the USERS questions and requests, and implimenting the logical ones that added functionality without removing thought process, all for free, thats why it is what it is, and not what it was made. Do a search for fpl tutorial, guide, tips, tricks, there are none, except here. Now do one on Charon, or APL, or proxyhunter, there are hundreds and then look for every other cracker tool you might ever wish to use, and see Charon not only in those guides, but integrated into 1/2 of the BEST tools crackers and hackers use (C-Force, Sentry, form@ to name a few) When people build there tools to fit your tool into them, thats not an accident, its either marketing for profits or its free and just a testiment to the importance and usefulness of that tool.
The day Terry or this board honestly answers the concerns and takes responsibility for answering there users questions honestly and on paper is the day i'll stop showing people that they can easily and more effeciently do the job of FPL with 1/2 a brain, APL OR ProxyGrab OR proxessor with Opera, Charon OR accessDiver to name a few, and they ALL leech forums, just about how you format the url's which is much simpler than FPL format. Look to the mothership and spider your way to the sources.
Keep em dumb and uneducated guys, but now that your closing the dump maybe give em a discount, huh? 89.99 +shipping and handling (ps morons you do not need to pay s+h on a downloadable tool :-)
