If you are having trouble receiving upload traffic with the torrents that you have seeding, this is likely not because of a "flaw" in the tracker, but rather, is caused by not forwarding the correct port in TCP and UDP from your router through to your computer. See, without the port that your torrent client uses being forwarded through to your computer, you will end up with the EXACT issue that you are describing, where seeding becomes incredibly difficult.

Also, if you are using a VPN, you need to be sure that you are either using the port that they are forwarding (as a number of providers/servers only forward ONE port), or that you are using a server that forwards ALL ports. This is a very critical part to being able to seed.

@aszxdcfv:

Wouldn't the client report the "stop" behavior to the tracker so it can remove the user from the seeding list? How could it not report the upload traffic also?

Just my guess. I'm not an expert of it.

You would think so, however it seems that this does not happen and that any data transferred from the last up to 30 minutes before stopping the torrent gets lost for some reason.

It should also be noted that you need to have made at least three forum posts anywhere in the forum to be able to see this section of the forum.

There are two things that can cause this. One of them is the @ symbol in the file or folder name. This causes big problems with creating torrents because of how it affect the bencoding of the .torrent file. The second possibility is you may have exceeded the number of files that you can handle in a single torrent. This is most common with picture sets. If you have picture sets, it may help to roll only the pictures of the set into a single ZIP file but make sure to NOT put the videos themselves into the ZIP file.

In your torrent client, you are using an IP Filtering list. Either the address or possibly one of the subnet ranges that our tracker uses is on your list. Please ensure that the following IP address and subnets are NOT found within your IP Filter list:

77.247.179.58
77.247.179.58/32
77.247.179.32/27
77.247.176.0/21

If you find ANY of the above in your IP Filter list, the connection to the tracker simply will NOT work until they are removed from the list, or the actual IP address itself is whitelisted and verified BEFORE looking through the hosts to block.

I've never been too worried, especially now that I've had to settle down with only having ONE partner.

Stalled usually means that there has been no activity on the torrent due to no leechers. If you start seeding them again, I can help you get some upload traffic from it.

I usually skirt around the issue by doing the force start/resume to force the torrents to keep seeding/leeching.

Generally, the images category is reserved for torrents that only contain images, with the exception of the comics & yaoi category, or the books and magazines category. Also, the search engine I do not believe is yet programmed to look for the additional categories, and only searches in the main category. I think this is where the problem is coming in.

This depends on a number of factors. I will be looking into these and seeing what may or may not need to be done.

@neony:

seeds are peers that have completed downloading the contents of the torrent (or a subset they selected) and are therefore offering uploads only. This contrasts with leachers, which are peers that are still downloading.

Not quite… In order for the system to acknowledge you as a seeder, you must have downloaded 100% of ALL the files, not just the ones you have selected.

A leecher on the other hand generally is in the process of downloading the torrent's contents. Simply put, they have not yet downloaded 100% of ALL of the contents. This count will include people who have for example downloaded the video file, but not the pictures, or users who have only downloaded some of the videos in a collection.

This error happens when you have a large number of files in the torrent. This is most common with picture sets, or extremely large video collections. If you have any photo sets in the torrent, I would suggest combining the photos into a ZIP or RAR format to reduce the number of files. Just be sure that any actual videos are NOT in a ZIP or RAR format.

There are two ways to seed content. The first is pretty simple. When you are done downloading your torrent, leave it in your torrent client, leave your torrent client running, and your computer turned on and connected to the internet.

The second way to seed torrents is known as the re-seed process. It is explained in our upload guide here.

It should also be noted that you should click on the torrent, then click the "Trackers" tab. Often times, this will display a more specific message to let you know what the problem is.

Anyone can make a torrent freeleech if they have enough SBP to do it. Then there is me. I go about the site randomly and start doing mini freeleech marathons. There are a few general criteria that I use to decide what torrents are used.

On the most part, the torrent must be at least 4 or 5 months old, and it must have fewer than 10 seeders. This however is not an absolute, as I make the decision on a case by case basis for each torrent. Although torrents must be at least 7 days old to be made freeleech, there is a roundabout way for staff to get around this. If we put a freeleech on the torrent, THEN promote it to the top of the list, it will appear as a "new" freeleech torrent. Generally, when this is done, it is a 156 hour freeleech, but not always. This is usually done to revive a dead or dying torrent.

The Straight, Bisexual, and Scat categories are disabled by default. To turn them on/off click on "Profile" in the blue bar along the top of the page, and you will find the option to enable or disable them. Simply change the setting, then click "Submit Changes" at the bottom of the page.

Yes… Each .torrent file is assigned with a personal passkey that is unique to each user's account. This is how the system tells what user is seeding what, based on the announce URL that the torrent client uses for that torrent. If you are leaving multiple computers running across the same network using the same public facing IP address, it is critically important that both torrent clients are configured to use different ports, and that the router that you're using for your connection has the port your torrent client uses forwarded to those devices both in TCP and in UDP. This will ensure that you are able to get proper incoming connections.

As for your question about ratio, I will put it simply. No matter what device or connection you are using, any data that is transferred DOES count towards your ratio. Just be aware though that a torrent client will only update with the tracker once every 30 minutes, and as such, you may notice a delay in the overall stat totals updating. This is normal, and the stats do eventually update, as long as you do not close your torrent client, or reboot your computer.

There are one of a few contact points, depending on what it is you're looking for in particular.

Also, you may only need a moderator, depending on the nature of the request.

If I had more information on the nature of your request, I could point you to the right place, or possibly address and handle it for you.

No. They are technically considered not to be duplicates, given that they do not contain all the same content.

As much as I loathe Vuze on the computer completely, I find it does a pretty good job on an Android based device.
