I'd Like To Report Stuff I'm Not Seeding =/
« on: November 27, 2009, 05:01:13 PM »
I'm not sure for how long, But it currently says that i'm seeding 76 things, which is fine, i have much more than that downloaded and seeding when possible, But the thing is, and, again, i'm not sure for how long, But I don't have utorrent open..>_> So the site thinks i'm seeding and i'm getting unfair bonus points =/ Unless i really am seeding, from like a buddies house or something (only know one buddy it could be, and furthermore his internet is far too slow to download 76 things in just a few hours), i'd like to report this error and have my bonus points reverted back to what they originally were when this issue occurred..I'm sorry if i really am seeding somehow, but my computer has been off for at least what i'm guessing 7+ hours..DX

(edit) Yeah..Utorrent isn't open in the process list..DX
(edit, again) I really don't want to open utorrent, In case this was just a tracker problem and opening it and such would just "fix the problem" and let me get away scott free with BP =/ Not to mention, if it really was that simple, what if someone figured out how the heck i did this? =/ =/

That's a known bug.
Happens when you close your torrent-client without reporting to the tracker.
One way to solve this is to stop all your torrents and wait for a minute before you close your client.
Just start it again and close it like this and the torrents will no longer be shown as active for you.

So..In my attempt to not accept unfair BP, I have to accept them? =/ And okay.. Thank you, i guess (I guess cause i wanted to turn myself in for this, but if it's common i guess i just lucked out..)

this happens to me basically all the time.
i don't care, and neither should you. at best you could get some gbs of upload with that evil "hack", but overall it is a negligible issue.
if you feel like you don't deserve the extra bonus points, don't trade them in ;)

You can enable graceful shutdown in
µTorrent which helps a little with this
issue of reporting back to the tracker.

Options -> Preferences -> Advanced -> bt.graceful_shutdow n
Set the value to true.

I don't really think it'd be worth the effort to cheat your way into extra bonus points.

Thanks for your honesty.

Sorry to bring up the same thing again, but is there a way aside graceful shutdown that'll prevent it from doing this? =/ I have GS enabled, but i guess it doesn't work since i have it running in the background on Admin, while user B is on..She usually reboots the computer when i'm not around to close it..It's fine and all if this really is okay..It's just, that was another double digit at least of hours where i was "seeding" but not seeding.. I'm using Windows XP Pro 64-bit, if that helps any..Perhaps there's a way to slow down the shutdown of the computer so utorrent could close connections? DX If you haven't guessed, the whole household doesn't know i torrent, and they really don't mind the lag (honesty, right? Makin' me feel bad..=/) So if need be..I guess i could just seed a crapload less of the time, But to be honest i can seed 24/7 as long as she doesn't restart DX

I'm running Windows XP 32bit and the
graceful shutdown option enabled. When
I shutdown or restart Windows it always
waits for µTorrent to stop first before it
exits. It has been working like this for as
long as I can remember and still does
in 1.8.4, at least for me ;)

Huh..I'm using 2.0, so perhaps that's doing something, But i also have the "close automatically after x seconds" on verses "wait for program to shut down" if that makes any sense.. Also, it closes just fine if i restart under Admin, just, when i log in under the other user and restart, while having it open under Admin, it doesn't shutdown gracefully..DX

It's enabled default here on the newest µTorrent (17414) with Windows 7, but then again, I always close down µTorrent before closing the system.
