The secret to soulseek is to get people to add u to their buddies list, then u get priority over people who arnt. Also people with BIG amounts shared only usually share with people on their lists to avoid leeches.
Another tip is, when you do a search, the results in black should start straight away, the grey ones you will be queued

WinMX
Kazaa
Shareaza
iMesh
Bit Torrents

Really struggle these days though, hardly any of the downloads actually start despite being available + I seem to be getting loads of dodgy blank files. Not like the good old Napster days I am actually going to PAY for a download soon as I'm proper pissed off with trying to get it via the top sources!

To add a user on soulseek right click in the big window with "user" in the title, then choose add user!
It usually appears above the list of chatrooms.
When you recieve a message it will have its own box at the top just under the search buttons etc
