yeah...

Wow, 53 petabytes of seeding in 13 days.

This should be an auto ban! *wonders to himself if you can get that connection*

Any need to be suspicious due to him hiding his statistics?

Not really. He/she's from sweden, 8TB in 9 months is nothing to be surprised about. We'll keep an eye on it anyway, thanks.

Well, to be honest, my comments are almost always irrelevant, but once I type about three to four words of a post, my mind just kind of meanders around until I type the last sentence.  And lo, this is that sentence.

He doesn't look suspicious to me 6 months and 900 something doesn't really set any alarms off for me yet...

Stats is a real mess.. but the weirdest is:
Escaflowne TV+Movie Soundtrack Collection [FLAC]    size 1.53GB
with 818.52gb up and 1372.33GB down ???

looks like they shared their passkey.  but might be a problem with the tracker, i dunno.

Forgat about that possibility - that too can be the cause other than a tracker error....

Not that I know the exact mechanics behind the stats
but not a single torrent in the Seeded tab belongs there
since none of them are above 0.2 in ratio.

And yes, indeed, the Escaflowne OST torrent I had as
an example can be found on mininova with the private
key and everything  :-\

I learned of boxtorrents thru a torrent on another site and the torrent file had the boxtorrents tracker listed in it with a specific user's pass key. I can easily imagine if outsiders are using someone else's passkey that the dl/ul stats become ridiculously oversized.

Is there a feasibility of associating an IP range with each passkey to prevent unwarranted tracker abuse?

there is no need. passkey privacy is up to the user. if he or she reveals their passkey (whether intentional or not) then it is his/her loss.

the passkey you saw was probably one of our public passkeys that had expired.
