@fresh2death8-0 pause all your other torrents, even the ones that are seeding.
sometimes you don't download all files from a torrent, so you never become a seeder. you finish downloading the files you picked and are able to seed it, but in the system still count as a leecher. when you keep the torrent active in this circumstance, it consumes one download slot. pausing everything else and waiting up to 30 minutes will reset your download slots and the torrent will start.
