I thank you for that. Already tried to install it on ubuntu 9.10 a couple of times and always had some problems. Can't remember now, but I suppose they were related to permissions or sth like that.Quote:

Ok little oftopic but plz help
My frn few hrs ago invited me 2 what. a invite is in my mailbox (have not created acc)
the problem is I m using mainly uT 1.6.1 and Delgu (where uT161 is not allowed :dry:) And NOT WILLING 2 CHANGE or UPGRADE.
So can any one tell me if what allows uT 1.6.1
I can definitely understand that. Putting aside whether you agree with them or not, it may well influence other sites to almost blindly (or not so blindly, but just as readily) follow suit.Quote:

Thanks for the suggestion m8 but I'm talking about 6 HDDs with sharing material all of them organized with the same structure something likeQuote:

- copy all non yet rehashed torrents to watch folder again
etc etc
I share the same things in DC so it has to be organized. A lot of the nonscene are also renamed in order to catalogue them to my media center. I'm not going to spent a week changing all these just because staff think that 2 GB of memory is something I can't affordQuote:

I never modded 1.6.1 or 1.7.7. I started with 1.9, mostly to make it emulate 1.8 after discovering the wonderful uTP and how it magically speeded my downloads up.

You are a plague for the private tracker scene. You're not only a cheater yourself but also teach people how to do it.
I can't use my favourite client on the best music trackers now because cheaters like YOU exploit open source software.
What he said - not sure what the hoopla is about switching clients and moving directories. Why would you move them? utorrent (at least on windows) has the option to set download location er torrent.. of course if you have 1000 torrents you'll have to do it manually for each but I've done it before for 700+ (when my windows crashed, purging the utorrent .dat files - back up EVERYTHING on windows lol). Of course i have tried utoorent for mac and it sucks - rtorrent is good though if cumbersome with cmd lines. And there is always rutorrent GUI...Quote:

I don't know but it would be best if this uTP thingamajig could be and is mandated to be turned off on private trackers - use it on demonoid!
Well apparently for the few that have their files organized across categorized folders, spanning many hard drives, etc. etc. it could be a giant pain in the ass for them.Quote:

If he in anyway promotes cheating at FST, or if you feel any of his other posts strongly encouraged people to do so, you can report it if you wish.Quote:

I still haven't seen anyone come with any proof (real and reproduceable) that shows uTP enabled clients prefering one over the other. all of that hoopla started on bitmetv and they still haven't showed any proof of thier statements. as the news announcement on what.cd states:Quote:

Failing to find evidence of this unfairness ourselves, and seeing significant benefits to the adoption of uTP, we have decided to make uTorrent 2.0 our #1 recommended client - however, be aware that you may not be able to use this client on other trackers.
since it was first implemented, it's always been possible to disable it. in the advanced options of utorrent, set the bt.transp_disposition to 5. that completely disables all of the uTP stuff in the client.Quote:

yea well i'm going on what has been said at various sites as are most ppl. And i think if the first statement is correct then like msot private trackers require DHT to be turned off, the same should be implemented for uTP IF it does behave in that manner. I use DHT when going public hunting and it would be the same for that new protocol.Quote:

Preferably in a seedbox. They are promoting the use of a client that no other site think is safe with many reported connection problems.Quote:

The way I see it , anon has been nothing short of resourceful(technically) and also helped a lot of members here. I don't recall seeing any posts of his which encouraged fsters to cheat. As far as I'm concerned he can do what he likes in his private/professional life as long as it causes no harm to fsters. Heck I don't even know the guy, just judging from his posts.Quote:

Maybe it's just the liberal in me but I have personally always felt that the best way to solve problems and resolve our differences is through dialogue .Quote:

My first knee-jerk reaction when anon-sbi started posting here was an immediate ban but seeing as little except making myopic people such as yourself feel better what purpose does that really serve?
A statement? I honestly I'd much rather make the statement that people are allowed a chance to give an opinion here and leave it up to the intelligence ( or lack thereof) of our members to determine for themselves what to make of that opinion.
As for the analogy here's another .Non-acceptable behavior like fungi require the dark to grow . Expose either to the light of day and they tend to wither.
Other than that all I will say is that anon knows what is and isn't permissible here and up to this point has lived up to his word and never promoted either his personal philosophy or his site at FST.
Now if that is not good enough for you you are welcome to again scurry off .

UPDATE
On another relevant note: We will NOT be banning Azureus/Vuze as some other sites have just done. :)
uTorrent devs themselves have acknowledged there are problems associated with uTP and promised that they will be addressed in 2.0.1; this announcement was run by a uTorrent dev himself on a couple of private trackers I'm on.Quote:

A month back a bug was found, and the devs were alerted and they said they would fix it, but I am yet to see it happen.Quote:

People are so concerned about cheating the economical system, that they forget about the people trying to cheat them. No matter what system is made, it will be cheated, and there will be more cheaters cheating the cheaters. The whole thing just goes on and on to invite more cheaters to the hive. Do people actually think there's no holes/problems with uTorrent? On the contrary. If someone wants to really cheat using uTorrent, I'm sure they will do it eventually.
EDIT: Being a uTorrent user myself, I'm not affected by most decisions, and yet I see the fact that uTorrent is gaining market share, at the least, unnerving. People are forgetting that it remains closed source, which means that when the time comes, corporate schemes can and will come into the picture in the way with which we interact with torrents, either through DRM or through other annoying features that none of us will be able to complain about, since at this rate, we're bringing it on ourselves.
I'm on a shaped line so I rarely, if almost never, use the Vuze mod nowadays. There are lots of other ways to do the same, anyway. Hell, Notepad, Telnet and a calculator are enough.Quote:

Other clients or even standalone tools that don't connect to the peers but pose as uTorrent as a different deal.

For me utorrent is enough... looking topics like this looks like I am the only who is looking to download something, not worring about client or any conspiratory theory envolved as long i get good speed.
Ignorance is bliss? :P
The way i see it, there's a lot of hypocrisy in here. (regarding the whole anon-sbi story)
I mean, it's not even a second chance. You all know anon is involved in cheating activities in one way or another at the moment. Besides, if you gave him a "second chance", why not give a "second chance" to all the other cheaters? It would be fair that way... right? :huh:
And no, nice and intelligent posts do not define someone. Actions do.
Who talked about a second chance here? It's not like FST is a tracker and I've been banned for cheating it in the past...Quote:

I've put second chance between " for a reason.
The thing is, cheaters usually get banned around here. I'm just curious why some of them deserve special treatment.
Not that i care much anyways.

FST policies are worse that i thought then :pinch:
As far as opinions go, I have no problem with Anon being here (the more opinions the better and I have seen him help people). I remember that he used to be DPed and if it were up to me he still would be.
Why? He is a cheater and he does help other people cheat (not directly, but still). The way things are atm, he really doesn't need the cheating forum, he can handle all the questions through PMs here. I'm not saying that he does, but he could. I'm sure he's a nice guy IRL, but as far as BT goes I wouldn't trust him.
Just my 2 cents.
Helping FST users to cheat through PM? You must be wanting to be made fun of. :happy:Quote:

And I have to lol at the fact that you have a split internet personality; the anon at the cheating forum and the ultra moral one here. I guess everything is possible online.
And don't worry about making fun of me, I can take. Just ask your Idols, to them it's a habit. :lol:
Sorry for the delay, my proxy often pukes when submitting forms.
How can you compare my would-be double personalities when you don't even know "the anon at the cheating forum"? One would think you can't compare things when you don't know one of them, but I guess everything is indeed possible online.Quote:

Only when the topic springs up. Which obviously isn't as often.
The fun has already begun - I'm laughing at how fast you're to make assumptions. :lol: Oh, and that was a nice word game :)Quote:

on the new topic i could say that cheaters themselves aren't the only guys to blame in what they're doing. the whole ratio system is screwed so it encourage cheating, seedbox buffering with hit'n'running and other strange things... but first of all, it is the way in which the announce between client and tracker works that make relatively comfort space for all this cheating business. how much real nasty cheating can be done when there is one seeder and one leecher except for fake announcing of the transfer to rise stats?... in perfect world imo, client has to report to server transferred amount for every peer, of course it would meant more cpu load for the tracker but i'm sure there could be some workarounds to make this work okay...
You don't need experience to avoid cheating on that kind of torrents, just common sense.Quote:

Anyway, I think that if you were a tracker admin and the amount of cheating on your site grew to such proportions, you should lower the river (i.e. check what's the real reason for it, and how you can fix that) instead of raising the bridge (coding every time tighter scripts).
