Restricting number of torrents someone can leech

Hi

Is there anything in settings that can stop someone leeching lots of torrents at one time from you - other than asking them politely?

I've currently got one user leeching 30 and another about 15. Not an issue sharing, but they're taking all my upload bandwidth which means uploading anything new is difficult.

using utorrent 3.5.5

Just 'pause' the torrents while you're seeding a new show.

You can also restrict the upload speed per torrent through your torrent client.

Thanks. That's what I've done in this case - not ideal but it works if I'm around to control it at least and the best thought I'd had too

There is no setting on the site to restrict it, but Daniel had good suggestions.
