Grauw Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Heya,I'm getting a client is banned message on one of my torrents. On the tracker's wiki, at http://wiki.depthstrike.com/index.php/Tracker_Information , it says:The Following Clients are currently banned from EAD's tracker network:[...]* µTorrent - Abusive Announcing, Poor announce implementation. Is that a problem which existed in an older client and that has now been fixed? Will it be fixed? Or is it not a problem at all?~Grauw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurlix Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 1.1.6 fixed that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grauw Posted October 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 <DWKnight> Grauw: the unban of uTorrent is pending<DWKnight> if you are using 1.1.5 or older, the ban will STAYSo that'll be resolved soon, I hope.~Grauw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosblade Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I talk to DWK daily. 1.1.5's behavior regarding multitrackers was abusive, and so it is banned. I dont think there's a reason to unban an older version anyway.v1.1.6+ should get unbanned soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grauw Posted October 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 It's unbanned now. Great . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grauw Posted October 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 Banned again. Wiki says same reason, although the tracker status contains a message that complains about the lack of support for a 'key' field?Sigh.~Grauw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanchez Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 Your in luck. key next version, which is coming soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurlix Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 As a workaround, you can edit the tracker url and add the key parameter manually, such that the tracker url would look something like this:http://tracker.net/announce?key=12345Where 12345 can be any random string, so you can leave it as 12345.EDIT: 1.1.8 supports key parameter builtin, so PLEASE UNDO after upgrading to 1.1.8 when it is released.

TRaSH Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 i use 1.1.6 and the tracker i use also has a passkey system and it works here without a problem.the reason why i still use 1.1.6 is because the new version has removed the options in seeding priority: numbers of seeders is less then: 5and i use this option to make sure non of our .torrents get 0 seeders.

ScubaSteve Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 i think adding that number of seeders option back in would be useful. not that i personally use it as i just set it to 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRaSH Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 i hope it will be put back so i can update with the latest versions again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosblade Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 Doesnt uTorrent prioritizie 0 seed torrents anyway ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRaSH Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 don't know but it's a nice option that you can keep seeding till there's enough seeders before stop seeding the .torrent and start seeding something else.but i think we're getting kind off offtopic now.

Smoovious Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Yes, seedless torrents are prioritized, after the Priority Seeding preferences.If you have a seedless torrent, that is prioritized by the preferences, then it will go first... once all of the torrents that were prioritized through preferences have satisfied their goals, then torrents without seeds at normal priority go first.-- Smoovious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grauw Posted November 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Fixed with the new 1.2 release, wonderful . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
