View Full Version : Random Torrent Question

I was seeding Rob's Vessels show yesterday and the forum page below showed zero leechers, just the three seeders (I did refresh the page several times), but I was seeding (on utorrent)) to someone who was close to completing. After they completed, there was still no change in the torrent stats (no extra seeder showing, or extra complete). I have noticed this on the odd occasion before. Why does this happen.

Most likely a seeder reached his 100+% share ratio and closed his seed before the tracker updated. Not sure why the leecher didn't show.

It wasn't showing on the webpage at all, even well before completion. Weird.

i get this all the time. i believe it's the result of people giving out the .torrent file to people who aren't members of TTD. of course i could be wrong.

I thought it might be that, though there were only two or three of us on it at the time, so short list of "offenders".

Interesting that I see it happening on my client now with a single leecher. He/she is connected to me but is not in the swarm, and TTD shows no leecher. On the FMMR 1979 torrent.

Was DHT off?

I think mods also can download & not show up on the tracker stats.

Maybe wait for the tracker to update?

Always have dht off. I know in my case the user was from Japan.

Leecher was on for like 3 days and not once did the tracker see him/her.
