bryank Posted December 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 Thats exactly whats happening. I'm using http://oink.me.uk for downloads. "Check Tracker Status on the General tab to see what the exact error message is." - where do I find this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1c3d0g Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 In the General tab you'll see tracker information (among them the status)... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryank Posted December 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 ok, I found that...now how do I reverse this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 Oh, that's Oinks then, because they limit the number of torrents you can run at once on their tracker. Raise your ratio to a high amount, and upload a whole lot, and they'll let you run more. This is common on basically all private trackers. Read THEIR FAQ and you'll see the limits imposed based on your ratio and whatnot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryank Posted December 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 My current ratio is the problem. I am currently at Ratio: 2.295 Uploaded: 65.89 GB Downloaded: 28.71 GB Any other ideas? I didnt have this problem with BitComet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 µTorrent isn't limiting you, the tracker is. Read what Tracker Status says.And BitComet bypasses the private flag set in the torrents to keep running the torrent with DHT when the tracker is down or inaccessible for whatever reason (ie limit reached, banned and whatnot) . That's why it got banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tumu Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 Sidenote: The tracker should just return empty peer list to BitComet to prevent it bypassing the torrent private flag instead of banning it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryank Posted December 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 is there any way that I can avoid this limit of 6 uploads?would a different client such as Azurus work/allow multi uploads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 No. Like I said, the tracker limits you, not the client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 is there any way that I can avoid this limit of 6 uploads?Yes, quit using http://oink.me.uk6 torrents at once (you do mean TORRENTS not UPLOADS, right?) would need alot of upload bandwidth to be giving a reasonable speed for each upload slot.(6 torrents with a default of 4 upload slots + 1 optimistic unchoke upload slot = uploading to 30 people at once...you'd need over 800 kilobits/sec upload bandwidth just to upload to 3 KB/sec to each person.)

splintax Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 maybe he has over 800kbit upload but yes, it is the tracker's fault... gah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
