My biggest mistake
« on: November 26, 2012, 04:51:55 PM »
i'm new at bakabt and i already dled 500 gb but without seeding them now i got my punishment.Now i can't download animes.tried to find a solution at bakabt's wiki but it doesn't work well.It's because my bad english i guess.I i'm trying now to download the same file from a other site.Will the amount of seeded bytes automatically stored to my bakabt account ?
i'm using torrent 3.2.1
i just dled a file from a other site and checked start torrent and than ok now i'm downloading if my dl is done i just have to seed it for a long time ?
sorry for this bad english please try to understand what i'm saying
i got my punishment and i want to fix it by reseeding all my dled files from bakabt.

Why not reseed that '500 gb' you grabbed from us? That could work.

Use the wiki you are reading to re-add the torrents back into your client if you removed them.


For help please refer to the wiki and search the help forum!

PM is through my tracker profile only

Point your client to the folder containing what is in the torrent. Most torrents define a folder with a bunch of files in it - if you point it at that folder, it won't work. You have to point your client at the folder that contains that folder.

You'll also have to rename your files and folders to be the same as those in the torrent, or you will have to do some special work.

v Read the very first sentence of the OP...

The files from the 2 torrents have to match too. I have encounter some instances where the 2 torrents from different sources have the same name, but somehow have different hashes.

You'd be way better off figuring out how to reseed properly. You already have 500GB worth of data. Even if you wanted to get more stuff to seed, you still have to go through the proper reseeding procedure.

Point your client to the folder containing what is in the torrent. Most torrents define a folder with a bunch of files in it - if you point it at that folder, it won't work. You have to point your client at the folder that contains that folder.

This is most likely your problem. Let's say you downloaded Sailor Moon, and it downloads as a folder called Sailor_Moon with episodes 1-26 inside that folder. Let's say you told your client to download to "C:\Documents and Settings\Ryman\Downloads", and you find your episodes in "C:\Documents and Settings\Ryman\Downloads\Sailor_Moon". Now, you remove that torrent from your client, and a little while later you decide you want to reseed the torrent. When you do, you tell your client that the files are in "C:\Documents and Settings\Ryman\Downloads", the exact same place that you told it before. You do not tell your client to go to "C:\Documents and Settings\Ryman\Downloads\Sailor_Moon", because this will cause your client to download to "C:\Documents and Settings\Ryman\Downloads\Sailor_Moon", which will download your episodes to "C:\Documents and Settings\Ryman\Downloads\Sailor_Moon\Sailor_Moon".

And now you add all of your 500GB of data to your client and sit back and wait for a while. It could take a few months to seed back 500GB depending on your connection.
