I mostly use a seedbox so Deluge, ruTorrent and Transmission.

Some sites frown on seedbox use so I switch to utorrent 2.2.1. The best (IMO). It still works well with Windows 10 and is free of most of the ads and spyware which plagued later versions. Google utorrent 2.2.1 and a choice of download sites (AYOR) should come straight up.

I have gone ahead and reset your account for you. I have also gone one step further as to ensure that you shouldn't have this problem again.

In future, you may get a faster response in the helpdesk with this type of inquiry.

The search engine does not search for file contents in collections.

The ticked box of "Filename" is the File Name of the .TORRENT file only.

We (staff) are aware of the shortcomings of the search engine, and it's on our staff wishlist of site improvements.

Thanks for the update. I didn't realize that the announce url contained my passkey. I noticed that my torrents stopped working this morning and finally figured out that the announce url had changed by comparing a new downloaded torrent file that was working to the old ones. updated the hash in the existing torrents and they started working again. Good object lession, I should have used the torrent download page url instead.

Also, with the way the site is setup, some proxy systems choke on the site's security, which somehow causes the connection not to pass all the way through to the server.

It's the timing that is so strange - as soon as I had the file freeleeched. It wasn't a duplicate, and for it to be DCMA'd within a few minutes after I freeleeched it would be an extraordinary coincidence. It was, literally, searchable one minute, then vanished the next. A well, this is life. Wish I could get my seedpoints back, but then again, it wasn't a lot of 'em.

I just thought I'd point out that I just now noticed something a little off in some user profiles who are using BiglyBT. Namely, the program is not properly reporting a valid port number to the tracker. With the way our tracker is setup, this can be a BIG problem.

Also, this raises the question of what else it does not accurately report to the tracker. 😞

Just download all the files separately?

I have quite a few files show up as snatched but not downloaded, even though they are seeding. Not sure whats going on.

Thank you for the reply… I have done all 3 steps mentioned earlier before I started this thread...

When you're in a low ratio status, the system will only allow you to download two torrents at a time. This is to try to prevent you from digging your ratio hole so deep that you cannot recover.

I would suggest trying some freeleech torrents to improve your ratio. Downloading any other torrent will result in your ratio dropping even farther than it already has.

The other possibility is that some of these torrents may be getting flagged as duplicates. Generally, these torrents should be able to be downloaded to completion, but that is assuming that the uploader continues to seed the torrent to completion, as the PM instructs them to do.
