You might want to read the big white notice at the top of all the forums. We switched to a passkey system yesterday. You need to redownload your personalized torrent. There are currently problems with bittorrent and bittornado as clients. But, uTorrent and Azureus are just fine.

We should've started a pool for all the Lounge/etc. regulars!

No, you dont' need to start over. You need to delete the torrent file from your bittorrent client and then put the new one (that you download today) into the bittorrent client and then point it at the files you have already downloaded. I show how to do it with Azureus here: http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/faq.php?faq=bittorrent#faq_window

Will we be able to use BitTornado in the future at all? Because I secretly despise Azureus :P .

There are several people using Bit Tornado just fine right now. Try it again and see if your torrents work.

Hey I was wondering...
Does the update add anything to torrent files when they're uploaded, or just during download? eg: Can I run an old torrent, or does the uploader have to re-upload first?

as I understand it, when you seed now you can't just use the torrent from your computer, you have to download it from the link in the new thread you create. like at dime, if you've ever seeded there. we haven't got it set up to automatically give you the new torrent yet, you have to download it.
