New candidate for most ill mannered client

it appears that we have a new candidate for the most ill mannered bittorrent client

it used to be bitcomet, for various reasons, but now, strangely enough, it looks like its bittorrent v5.0!

after checking logs for my tracker i found that bittorrent 5 tends to announce every minute to the tracker, and when it announces it does so about 4 or 5 times in a second, and then itd keep announcing at the same rate for hours while it receives nothing but failure messages because ive banned the ip!

ive never seen announcing that bad from any other client, i actually added over announce auto banning to my tracker because of it

every other client only announces once per announce time, and generally at least stick to min interval

the only loop in my announce code is when the tracker is actually gathering peers from the database, the point where it outputs to the log file isnt in one so that isnt getting looped
