AnonTrackerAdmin Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 I just banned a user whose client was reporting upload stats but not reporting download stats. Unfortunately, I did not take note of the clientID when doing so, but he subsequently claimed that he was using utorrent beta 2.2.1 and attributed it to a client bug. Any possible truth to that?I don't normally offer second chances to people falsely reporting stats, but OTOH don't want to be unfair if it was just due to a utorrent beta bug.TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Highly doubtful that it was 2.2.1, but if you want to check, wireshark can check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 A missed tracker update and/or a badly-timed uTorrent (or windows!) crash could have the same results as "hostile" ratio hacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 To answer the question in the topic title, no, I haven't seen any reports about the betas specifically. As I recall, there were sporadic reports about 2.2, but they were not too much unlike the reports about 2.0 or 1.8.5 (all unsubstantiated claims), leading me to believe it's just people being paranoid as usual, or incorrectly (maliciously or otherwise) placing blame as your user appears to be doing.
