Did not get credit for download
« on: January 03, 2011, 10:36:46 PM »
Okay basically I downloaded a new anime from the site, and it downloaded fine. The problem is when I go to my list (I check to make sure it's seeding for others) is that it doesn't have a number on the down section, so no ratio comes up.

I seem to be seeding fine. And it downloaded completely just fine. But it never identified it on my bakabt account. I tried searching for this on the wiki, but couldn't find it. What's wrong with it? I didn't get any download raise from it either.

site-wide holiday freeleech?

http://forums.bakabt.me/index.php?topic=27926

But I have other free leeches and still got credit. This is the only one where I didn't get credit for it.

the freeleech is a temporary freeleech for all torrents you download over the christmas/new year holidays - everything you downloaded before obviously counts towards your download if it wasn't freeleech at that time.
did you download anything aside from this torrent during the holiday freeleech period?

and just to clear up any odd ideas: you do understand that downloading something ("download raise") makes your ratio worse, not better, right? ... because you make it sound like you lost something.

What is this "credit" you speak of? I don't think anyone else considers download stat as "credit" in the conventional sense.

Anyway, yes, please do list the torrents that you have received "credit" for downloading... Also, I don't think anything you have downloaded is normally freeleech. BTW, just in case you still haven't caught on, the current site-wide freeleech is temporary and only for the holidays. Anything you have downloaded before this started (about a week from the end of December) would have been subject to normal freeleech rules.

And one more thing, what you think is "no ratio" is a green infinity sign. Look more carefully.

If the torrent's file size is quite short and your download rate was quite fast, the tracker might not have noticed your download.
I've noticed this kind of thing has happened with a few short, fast downloads though usually the file size was small enough to be a regular freeleech anyhow.
