122 torrents in 24 hours?
-
I usually download just a few a day, but system is telling me I am close to my 124 per 24hour limit? How would that be?
-
I got the same message, even though I personally only downloaded a dozen or so torrents.
However the last couple of days when I search/browse for torrents, random torrents will be highlighted in green and/or as downloaded. These torrents I did not download, in fact most of them I hadn't even looked at.
I thought this was just a visual glitch/bug, but if the system actually thinks I downloaded all these torrents, I can understand why it would warn me I'm almost reaching the limit.
-
Come to think of it, the green highlights have been showing for me too.

In a case like this, I strongly recommend you change both your password and your passkey. This sounds like either someone has gotten ahold of your account password, or possibly has even gotten ahold of your passkey directly. Changing both your password and passkey will ensure that your account is secure and that no such activity can continue.
-
Okay, cheers. Have reset password and passkey. Doesn't seem to be any shaded in green in torrent listing today.
-
Changed passwords and passkey, but still getting torrents showing as downloaded in list.
Is it possible there is another glitch?
-
If your password was compromised, it can take up to 6 hours for the person who got in to be forcefully logged back out. For this reason, changing your passkey one more time should now finish securing your account and stop this problem once and for all.
-
Have done that again, but am not convinced it is the issue.
The torrents don't show as having been downloaded or are not completed and none of my ratios seem to be affected.
What would someone be achieving to be logging into my account? Surely they would be able to do more damage?
And also why can I not change the email linked to the account?
-
Any further feedback to this?
Am still getting torrents in green on the search that I am definitely not downloading….?
-
Anyone?
-
There have been some updates to the system, however we cannot confirm as of yet whether or not these issues were addressed with the latest round of updates. We know that the issue with pictures not loading has been resolved, but there is no information at this time about this particular issue. Has anyone experienced it in the last few days?
-
I've been seeing things tagged as downloaded and not snatched over the past few months, I after seeing his post I a week ago reset my password and passkey.
I was out of town until last night, and this morning was notified that I only had 3 downloads remaining.
I'll change my password and passkey again. But not sure what's going on.
-
It has to be a glitch in the forum/site and user accounts as I have now changed password and passkey at least 6 times and the issue remains.
-
FWIW, the system will automatically keep you logged in for your session for up to 6 hours. For this reason, it is recommended that you change you password, wait 6 hours for the new password to be forced into effect, THEN change your passkey.
In the perfect world, there would be a way to go into your account and click a button to FORCE all of your active login sessions to be immediately terminated. This would really make the account security take over process MUCH faster and more immediately effective.

Have now done this several times, I am of the opinion now someone isn't logging into my account but rather there is an issue where someone is using my account either through a userid clash or database issue….
-
This happened to me too, I've changed and reset my password and passkey like 3 times now and still now working
-
This is still happening, and seems to happen on a refresh of a screen. Surely no one is downloading torrents that quickly, so has to be a glitch if several people are reporting it.
-
YES, it seems to be an error on the site, and the sysop is aware of this issue.
Take care,

This issue seems to be happening again, multiple torrents apparently downloaded and marked in green.. Am showing 62 downloaded in 24hrs, which definitely wasn't me…..
-
I have also just had this issue saying I have downloaded 43 torrents in the last 24 hours, as well as many green highlighted torrents.
I have never downloaded more than half a dozen torrents in a single day.
It has also not affected my ratio so can't be someone using my account.
