  1. Hi there. Sorry about this! You shouldn't have to wait for a reply e-mail. When you enter the forum, you should just be able to download the product and license key (says steps 1, 2 and 3). Please try again and let me know if it works.
  2. I guess it will take a video. You call this stable? I call it garbage. Sorry, we didn't explain this change well. I'll try to explain here and we'll make a word change for this setting as well. Under Preferences/General there's a box called Minimize at system start that we will now call Minimize at Windows start. The change in wording reflects the respective change in function.
  3. Naw...actually Firon is just on a well-earned vacation and I (his stand-in) am not nearly as thorough as he is. But he will be back soon to make all okay again.
  4. µTorrent 3.0 (32-bit) Release Candidate 5 - Build 25377 Okay, I've now moved the changelog to the first post in this thread where it belongs so I'm deleting this one.
  5. Hi rrrrrrrrG - what do you mean by mandatory? You are always welcome to NOT upgrade to the latest version - we have no desire to dictate which version you use (though we aim to make new versions that you WANT to upgrade to).
  6. It has been 15 months now, and I'm still waiting for the RSS downloader to be attended to and renovated... A complete list of RSS feature bugs/improvements is here: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=44903 Maybe in v 3.1 ? Good point! I don't have a firm answer so I won't make a specific version commitment now. But it is on our roadmap and we do want to make progress on it.
  7. Thanks! I and everyone who contributes to this product, especially the dev team, appreciate that.
  8. I totally agree... as I said in my previous comment' date=' please bring back the ability to play unfinished torrent by double-clicking. Please please please.....[/quote'] Thanks for the head's up, guys. I think this one is easily fixable, and rather quickly. Dev will find out for sure.
  9. Hey cheeseISgood (and everyone worried we're turning into Vuze), I know you don't want us to turn into something unrecognizable to what's made us a good home for you over the past many years - speed, light weight, no frills, etc. I also don't take you all for granted - I know we can lose you, we talk about you and users like you *a lot*, and we're all very happy to have you. I want to say that: - We read and we hear what you're saying. That's evidenced by changes we make specifically in response to your wants. - Obviously we screw up sometimes. Sorry. :/ Part of this is inevitable in the alpha/beta process, and I *really* appreciate you all telling us about our errors so we can fix them. - We will continue to change the product in ways our power users have asked for (or we think will like), such as in maintaining fast speed and light weight, solving stability issues and building some features from the idea bank and forums. - It's my belief that power users understand we'll make changes for other reasons as well, and that as long as we 1) do so in ways that keep the core product experience intact and 2) listen to feedback and make adjustments and fixes along the way, that this is acceptable. For example, it's NOT wrong to assist new users by trying to make the first user experience easier as long as we keep the existing user model intact and selected by default for returning users (users with previous settings). And it's okay to experiment with new features and technologies as long as we listen to user feedback and make necessary changes. And it's even okay to operate like a business and make money as long as we do so in an honest, open way and we don't cross any lines of respect or do anything ethically wrong. Please let me know if I'm wrong about my beliefs here - you or anybody. And thanks for donating your time to help us keep a correct course. By the way, about those icons: We had a simple goal of differentiating the "torrent action" icons from universal playback options. Because some new users were getting confused. I know we won't please everybody here. We DID send the icons to the forum for feedback many weeks back in hopes of pleasing more of you (http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=96984). But icons and aesthetics are troubling because they're so subjective. I think the best thing we can do is stop messing with them every release, and to continue to allow users to create their own icons or revert to icon sets they like from the past using skins.

  10. Thanks for taking the time to enumerate all of this. - On making changes without informing users...you're right, this should not happen. - We are logging all performance issues from you and others - We are looking into the ability to hide "send files" - We are looking into restoring exact detail for "torrent added" - Torrent renaming has been bugged Thanks, Jordy
  11. Hi Blastyrant, I read all of your post and I understand your concerns. You and others like you are good at making sure we remember what users like about uTorrent, and I really appreciate that. So thank you. Now...what we are doing is adding use cases we think most users will like in what I hope is a very respectful way. This means that for the most part you can decide whether or not you want new features; that you can customize the interface to be how you've always liked it; and that we retain the speed and lightness we know everybody likes. For example, in the "top area" of the torrents view you can right-click and add/remove columns and left-click to change the position of columns. I hope that helps. Thanks, Jordy
  12. Okay, Chem, I've elected #1 and #2 for fixing. Item #3 will be fixed in the next build. Items 4 and 5 will probably be later. We appreciate your feedback. :/
  13. Hi DKT, I like your icon. So what do you think about these options for minimizing to tray? Alt (spacebar) Alt n Alt F4
