very likely to be the case of preventing ghost leeching, if it is so then warning shud have been described as "dont worry editing the passkey, u've dlownloaded the torrent means u've downloaded the data,f*ck the tracker and seed it back, thats it no arguments"

but even that wont stop ghost leeching, wont go into details and give anyone ideas, but there is a way to even get around that (and i would guess most ghost leech cheaters do it anyway).

Looking at the first post again, it does look like they meant "downloading the .torrent metadata means you have to download the torrent". The thing is, since the text looks like made by a machine translator, we can't really know unless someone asks the PT staff.Originally Posted by whatcdfan
True.
"I just remembered something that happened a long time ago."
Looks like a case of
..or translation :p

So what if I just want to check filelist? And that option dont work on site. Or if they hide peer list and I dont know how much will take to download 100%? What if I start to download and I see it will take much more to download then expected? I will quit and get hnr instead od downloading it for whole month...

Good points. You should discuss them with their staff.
Though I'm sure they considered that also, yet saw the current system as the best choice. And about speeds, new torrents on most sites tend to be hosted by seedboxes.

PT has so many rules they try so hard to invent new ones that make any sense.
This is pretty much what I was thinking when I read this rule. For some reason, I think I've seen this somewhere else, some small site that ended up failing anyway.
Well, I think PT did implement this rule. I download a .torrent file without putting it in my client. and it did show a HnR in my unseed list. This rule is not too reasonable.
