On the last show you uploaded, DHT is allowed. Can that be the reason?

Yes, that could be a very good reason. Always disable DHT in your client and when you create torrents! When creating a torrent in uTorrent, click the Make Private check box.

DHT (Distributed Hash Table, technical explanation) is an addition to certain BitTorrent clients that allows them to work without a tracker. What this means is that your client will be able to find peers even when the tracker is down, or doesn't even exist anymore. It allows the swarm to continue as normal without a tracker. You can also host torrents without a tracker.

This means, your ratio wont get updated if you enable DHT from your torrent client (ie: BitComet, uTorrent, Azureus) when downloading from trackers. Nowdays, new torrent client comes with DHT, so please disable it unless u are downloading from other websites that do not implement a ratio method.

So this whole time, I have been sharing/seeding on metpage, with DHT enabled, I have been ripping my own ratio off?
I wish I had known about this before....I will disable it when I get home, all the trackers I usually use are private so whats the point on leaving that option enabled?

Bob,


Thes following settings are the good ones, to get a proper ratio credit.

1991-1992-1993
Touring for two years was more than my body could take.
You're there and your head tells you that you have to go on,
but your body is close to giving out. Five to six days a week,
i was on stage for about two and a half hours every night.
Doing that for over two years, my larynx didn't feel great,
it felt like my vocal cords were just falling apart
