@asipenner: I have done a reset of a sort on your account. You should now be able to download no problem. I was not seeing any reason why the system was restricting you, so I did the reset to see if I can override that function in the system to put your account back where it belongs.
@grecodesk The "Official" one can be found here
It is clean. I think I Like it, I'll give it a go. One thing is bothersome: in Browse view, when I mouseover "i" to see info, the popup box sometimes is very wide and goes off the left side of the page. This is only happening in Safari (which I prefer to use). It looks fine in Chrome. Also, under my profile I do not see an option to choose the old layout, although like I said I think I'll get used to the new layout. Nice work
This issue should now be fixed.
@duncanlem You can send me a DM and I can look into this for you as well.
If the fix that I applied worked, without the need to change anything on your end, then I suspect that there was a system glitch that I cleared when I did the account reset.
@Gaylmah-0 There is no such thing as port forwarding in IPv6 due to the nature of the way that its subnets work. Simply put, there isn't a need for it on IPv6.
The short version is you need to set a static IPv4 address for your computer on your network (preferably on the DHCP settings of your router), then set the port that your torrent client uses to be forwarded through your router to that IP address bothi in TCP and UDP.
Since our tracker is only IPv4, you won't really see any IPv6 traffic from our systems.
I am having the same problem as ja32….
it just seems like there are tons of seeders and not enough leechers... i left my client on for 3-4 hours last night and barely got any upload... now im just trolling the recently uploaded to maybe get some seeding in but it seems like once i get something downloaded there is a million seeders and no leechers... none of the older torrents im seeding have any leechers...
The only thing that I could suggest to both of you (short of donating to the website) would be be to keep seeding torrents as often as possible, and see if you are able to perhaps find other content that is not on the website to upload. Although the website does not require payment of any kind, you obtain seed bonus points from seeding torrents, regardless of whether or not they're being downloaded. If you click on your seed bonus points in the top right corner, you will be brought to a screen where you can exchange said points for upload. Perhaps this may be a way of helping you in your goal to get enough of a share ratio to be able to download again, without having to donate.
@ianfontinell This is not necessarily true. Many sites and studios that have user accounts watermark their videos for each user account. The result is that by obtaining a copy of the torrent in question, they can look at the invisible watermark on the video and trace it back to the user account in their system that actually downloaded the content from them in the first place......
So... If they have a paid account with a site and share something they downloaded, it MAY be possible to track down their user account with that site/studio to track down the source of the leak. If you're uploading something you downloaded elsewhere on the internet, this risk is not possible, as the video was not downloaded from the site/studio from YOUR account with them.
Try now… If you still get the same error, then you need to check to make sure you downloaded ALL the files in ALL the torrents, otherwise the system will only register that you are LEECHING the torrent, rather than SEEDING the torrent.
@john32123666 The short answer is that it IS allowed here, but should be placed in the Trans category. I have moved it to said category for that very reason.
i think the user is only suggesting this because hes uploaded less then 10% of what hes downloaded
I have been seeding all of my torrents all the time. It's not my fault no one's downloading them.
Even if you're not successfully uploading from files you're seeding, you obtain seed bonus points by having them seeded. If you click your seed bonus points in the top right corner of just about every window, you will be automatically directed to the area of the website where these points can be exchanged for a number of things. This includes upload, which will bring your upload up, without the need to donate to the website. Alternatively, you also have the option of uploading a torrent, which should help resolve the issue more quickly.
@cornholio67 If you need it, I can look up the email address associated with your account. If it has changed, I can also arrange to update the email address as well. Just shoot me a DM or chat message to get this started.
FWIW: I can start taking requests for more hardware specific port forwarding instructions that go into step by step detail. I just need to know what hardware people want to be supported so that I can get working on that.
@BKisalive This sounds like a combination of two things..
100+ other seeders helping seed the torrent
Port Forwarding issues.
With #2, you need to make sure that the port your torrent client uses is forwarded through your home router/network to your computer, both in TCP and UDP. This is a necessary step to being able to get proper upload traffic.
Is there currently an open source version of the current app that can be made available?
This would allow the open source community to help collectively collaberate and adapt it to fit any operating system and submit the code, etc for approval, or as a "beta" release for the community to post some sort of forum on in order to support it's progress and development?
If such a thing does exist, how would one go about acquiring it to help adapt it to various platforms and submit the end result as a release cantidate. Ultimately, for open source support, a forum specific to operating system could be created as they become available.
@masterskinsx This is because of doing away with torrent promotions. Since the beginning, torrents need to be at least 7 days old to make them freeleech. When you would see supposedly newer torrents on freeleech, it was because a mod would freeleech it, then promote it. Since there is no promotion of torrents anymore, this prevents this illusion from being possible any longer.
@fickle-0 The issue in your case seems to be a combination of two things...
There are no leechers actively downloading any of the torrents you have recently finished... At least not the ones that appear in your profile
You may not have your port forwarding settings correctly configured on your home network. By default, Transmission uses port 51413. This port (or the port you have changed it to use) needs to be forwarded through your home network to your computer, both in TCP and UDP in order to get proper upload traffic.
@tnar That will usually throw you an error the moment you open the .torrent file in the torrent client. It won't get as far as checking the contents if this is the case.
I'll give you a good example. Microsoft Office has a Windows Version and a Mac Version. They LOOK very much alike.
I don't mean to sound offensive, however Microsoft is a multi-billion dollar corporation that spands its offices throughout the world. Although GT is even more awesome than Microsoft ever could be (for so many wonderful reasons), due to the sheer difference in size, resources, and funding, it is not always possible to support more than the average mainstreem user's typical configuration.
That being said however, I'm sure that a lot of that also has to do with the little known fact that Microsoft owns 51% of Apple.
@NeoStrada This likely means that the torrent is in the ModsOnly category, pending deletion because it is a collection of videos with no common theme as per the rules.
