DRShroyer Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Greetings: Can a knowledgable person elaborate on the technical differences, if any, between pausing and stopping a torrent? Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Pause is good for when you'd like a torrent to resume quickly but only need to 'stop' it for about 5-10 minutes at most. Any other situation, stop is better.Honestly, pause is a bit unnecessary in terms of functionality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n3m4c Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Thank you for removing the clutter that was Pause button from the toolbar. Now we have all this empty space that we were praying for for so long...Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 ... and I do not appreciate that my Pause Button comment in Feature Requests has been locked.And we don't appreciate that you opened it in the first place.What are you afraid of, someone will have the nerve to agree with me? Whoever you are, you are a coward. Are you gonna lock this one, too?We aren't afraid of anything other than having to waste our own time on attempting to beat stupidity out of users.

DreadWingKnight Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Pause attempts to hold the peer connections open where stop closes them.If you're going to be pausing for 5 minutes or more, you get identical effect as stopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
