Hey folks,

I have downloaded a few hundred torrents from this site and kept seeding them forever, but recently I started QBittorrent on Windows 10 seconds before my network storage was available and the software has quickly reset all seeding torrents to "missing data". I know I can select them and do "Force re-verification" and after scrubbing through them, they will start seeding again. The software tries to 're-download' them, until it notices the files are actually complete. I had to do that sometimes when torrent filenames contained special characters like "Porn Collection #2 (new!)". Now we're talking about a few hundred torrents, and obviously the tracker now says "Not operating", and re-verification doesn't make any progress…

Do I have to wait it out or better switch to another software? Am I missing an option?

Thanks in advance!

My torrent client says that I have a "strong" connection, and I have set up the NAT rules correctly. I think I have rather a very special interest. This morning someone else finally downloaded one of the torrents and my ratio just barely went above the threshold now

So basically I've heard all about the high-traffic freeleech torrents and such. But I'm not very interested in the contents of them, I'd only download them to get more upload traffic.
The interesting torrents have only a few seeders and no leechers. I've downloaded some of them just after redeeming my invite. But I seem to be the only one interested in them, for a very long time. So zero upload traffic for them.

Is downloading and uploading freeleech torrents really the only way for me to get more traffic, in this special case?
