<![CDATA[Failure: Bad ratio]]>Hi,

Recently, I have been experiencing a Failure Bad Ration Error when downloading even thou I am only downloading one or 2 at a time and I have an 8 limit. I have not exceeded my 150+ download limit for the day. It doesn't make sense - does seeding affect this ratio?

Any solution or suggestions? Thanks.

if i completed some torrents that are just partially downloaded and seed it ... it will count as leeching too?

NO ...
Once file is 100% completed you will become a seeder...
There are 2 types of seeding, A 100% files [you're a seeder or co-seeder] ...
seeder - 100% who have own the files ...
co-seeder - 100% who have the exact same copy ...

A partial downloaded files, youre a seeder and a leecher ...
In most cases a leecher is a downloader sharing files or not sharing upon completion ...

So stop unfinished leeching torrent while downloading to prevent bad ratio warning if your ratio is low ...

When this happens, the tracker will only register you as leeching the torrent, which counts towards your maximum number of simultaneous downloads, which is a separate number from the number of .torrent files you can download in a day.

To get around this, you need to either stop these torrents, or finish downloading ALL the files.

These happens w/ multiple downloads finding peers ...
it will update once active download is completed,
if not stop stalled torrents [finding peers] to free slot ...
