What is good SoulSeek etiquette? - eviltoast

I’m new to Soulseek. Got my Nicotine+ docker set up w/ VPN through gluetun. I’m good to go. Port forwarding is working correctly and I’m sharing a little over 100GB of flacs that I have ripped personally with EAC and a couple people have downloaded some of my stuff, which is really cool. I don’t have privileges rn.

But I there are a lot of albums that I’ve lost over the years that I see on SoulSeek. I want them. But I want to make sure I don’t get blocked or banned. So, say a person has 3-5 whole albums that I want. Is it proper to just download them all at once? I’ve seen things like this on one person’s profile page:

If you start browsing my share like it is a shop and queueing everything you come across e.g. whole artist folders, I will just remove you.

So a little guidance from this community would make me feel a little more confident?

    It would be amazing if lidarr could also interface with soulless. Id use it again but I’m way too lazy to go back to running randomly downloaded albums through whatever automated fingerprinting gui that went against musicbrainz I was using at the time
