@ianfontinell I appreciate you taking the time to respond. That said, you are not correct.
I have used P2P clients as recently as the past few years, but not in a torrent environment. And, as such, I appreciate that (a) to play in that environment you need to bring a share, (b) your share needs to hash out to make it worthwhile, (c) and comparable aspects of that. This particular place has their own little rules that don't reflect a common P2P experience, and just because they are familiar to you, and you can work within them, doesn't mean anything more than those two sentences.
And I've downloaded torrents as well as files uploaded to torrents using FDM as recently as this month. I have excellent sources for a lot of things many people on the planet use for torrents, such as music, software, entertainment, books, etc., that using torrents isn't a huge need for me.
I appreciate, as well, your comments about Qbit, if you were a Mac user, I might put more stock into them. Since you are not, apparently, I'm going to trust in my own research and use Transmission, since that the suggestion I received, based on my OS and current machine set up, that Mac users made to me on various subreddits.
But thank you for playing, pal.
