WTF with SCC

Failure to turn these options will cause µtorrent to misreport data to the tracker. This is not only a security risk, it is also a bannable offence as your client will report more data uploaded and less data downloaded from the tracker, thus falsely increasing your ratio. Also, if you are seeding to peers from outside the tracker, you won't be able to seed to SCC members as quickly as possible. Please disable these features as soon as possible.

???

my peer exchange and local peer discovery were enabled when i checked, i think they autoenable when you updated to 1.7.7

i just turned mine off now

In preferences we have:

Enable DHT Network
Enable DHT for new torrents
Enable Local Peer Discovery
Ask tracker for scarpe information
Enable Peer Exchange

And I need to uncheck the red one's? Any other options to check/uncheck?

If I uncheck these options will there affect me on other trackers than SCC? For example if I leave them uncheck for TL it will be okay, right?

Thanks!

u should knows by now that staff from SCC checking FST for every scc giveaway thread and they are disableing users if they find same username as there

that is also the reasone why no one from SCC staff havent had ex. community rep status here

ye u are so right about that.

Good thing you posted that T.S.O.L. I haven't seen their homepage in the last couple days, and Local Peer Discovery was enabled in mine. Never knew I had to turn it off.

Thanks again.
