This is EXACTLY my issue… i've contacted the helpguys about this, and im afraid they pinpointed to my torrent client as the culprit (specifically the NAT). Ive checked my torrent client and the settings, and everything seems fine (i.e. IP filter disabled, max uploading set as reasonably high as possible). But sadly, the files i was seeding were not being picked up.
Mind you, the first 3 ones got seeded SO quickly, so i never had a problem before. And i never consciously picked those files with high leechers/low seeders... But since i started downloading more than 3 files, then the seeding problem started.
So the solution? Its either i download only 1 every time so as to have enough time to offset the download with the seldom seeding. Or change my taste in videos entirely and download popular vids people like which do not turn me onir at all, just to get my seeding ratio high.
Like you, i could pinpoint a chokepoint in the credit system here, and i could see that the donation option was put in place for those who are really conscientious with their ratios. But that's a system we just have to live with, i guess. :blownose: :blownose: :blownose:
Btw, i havent been downloading for 2 weeks now, just because i decided to join the noble cause of downloading and hopefully seeding a rare 51GB Island Caprice collection... So im afraid im "stuck" at the moment... :cry2: :cry2: :cry2:
The reply i got from our dear friend Ajax...
_*Why am I listed as not connectable? (And why should I care?)
The tracker has determined that you are firewalled or NATed and cannot accept incoming connections.
Although you are still able to download from others, anyone who attempts to download from you is not able to 'see' you and is therefore connecting with others whose client is readily available. This could be a simple firewall exception issue or, more likely, a NAT port forwarding issue:
(from Wiki>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_address_translation
*Network address translation (NAT) is a methodology of modifying network address information in Internet Protocol (IP) datagram packet headers while they are in transit across a traffic routing device for the purpose of remapping one IP address space into another. The term NAT44 is sometimes used to more specifically indicate mapping between two IPv4 addresses; this is the typical case while IPv4 is the majority of traffic on the Internet. NAT64 refers to the mapping of an IPv4 address to an IPv6 address, or vice versa.
I'm not totally familiar with the Tixati Client that you use, but I do know it offers an IP Filter feature which could be affecting your connectability.
I use a VPN (Virtual Private Network) which specifies I turn OFF my IPv6 address (see WIKI reference above) to be able to maintain connectability, (you can find this in our SETTINGS in Tixati) Not sure if your issue is the same (I also use uTorrent v2.2.1 which is considered the most stable of the torrent clients).
Hope this helps a little but also check your client settings and reading their forums related to torrent traffic. I've done a little research and found this> http://download.cnet.com/Tixati/3640-2196_4-11466492.html?v=1 (which is an OLDER version of your client but maybe similar issues)_
