earle1112 Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 I just the read the following which I believe is crap... But anyone care to comment ??I am banning all uTorrent users from any of my torrents as it disconnects from the swarm a lot like Bitcomet / Bitlord does, this is slowing down the whole seeding process of torrents and is making the seeders have to upload a lot more data even in normal seeding mode I have noticed this problem with both Bitcomet / Bitlord and uTorrent.From http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=402355&r=6148379#r6148379 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earle1112 Posted October 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Well he read it and responded...I am one of the seeders of a torrent and noticed that the only users that were disconnecting and reconnecting from me were Bitcomet / Bitlord and other users that were showing as Unknown 0UT1140--"-XP<----( , Unknown 0UT1150-xl7---|,--r and Unknown 0UT1150-G--O-B-~-F-.I asked the users what client they were using and they said uTorrent.Since banning these clients the % of data in the swarm has risen a lot compared to the most complete user, where before it was hovering around the amount that the most completed user had.Note that between the other seeder and I we have uploaded over 2.5 times the total amount of the size of the torrent.I hope that uTorrent is not a problem like Bitcomet's are as it could be a good replacement for Azureus, and hopfully get all these bitcomet users out of swarms.If the developer is made aware of problem and fixes them all the better.http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=402355&p=-1#bottom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverfire Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 BitTorrent clients need to have a profile provided for the client string for it to be able to properly display what it is, which probably means that the client he's using only displays as the raw data that it recieves.
