I removed the tracker URL by accident and didn't know what it was to re-add it.
But now I've gone and deleted the original torrent. I downloaded the torrent from this site and when I open it in uTorrent its downloading not uploading :cry2: :cry2: How do I get it to upload instead?
Thank you, that was super helpful and informative.
One other question. I deleted my tracker in uTorrent because it wouldn't update unless I manually shut down the client and restart it. How do I get my tracker back? My file won't seed.
Also, as it wasn't updating automatically, I missed out on a HUGE chunk of upload credit. Is there anything I can do to rectify this?
Any advice appreciated.
Firstly, what exactly is meant by upload credit? I uploaded a file and it increased the UL amount on my account. However, will the traffic each of my torrents receive be credited to my UL amount (i.e. if 50 people download my file causing 7 GB of data to be downloaded will that go towards my UL amount)?
Secondly, why does my file status on uTorrent status just say "Seeding"? Is it actually working/seeding? Because there is no upload speed. If there is no upload activity does that mean I'm not seeding? Is there something which indicates that I'm seeding other than the 'Seeding' status?
Thirdly, is it possible that users are seeding from other users instead of me? If they are, would I get upload credit still? Would that be credited to the UL amount or my bonus points? I'm confused.
My torrents have been downloaded several dozen times and I have not seen any difference in either my UL amount or my bonus points (other than maybe the usual per hour seeding credit - which I'm not even sure is happening).
Sorry for the basic questions but I'm new to this and I haven't found the answer to my questions elsewhere. Would really appreciate some advice.
