I honestly think it would be a good idea (and maybe lighetn things up) if we had a thread for jokes (within the usual bounds of decency). Anyone else interested?

I wouldn't worry about the port mapping - mine 'fails' if I run a VPN but works if I don't (it doesn't seem to make any difference to operation) Upload speed - there are two possible reasons here: first (and most obvious) is that nobody is downloading from you. The other would be that your total bandwidth is tied up with long termn seeding. Try reducing that to, say, 100 KB/s.

Never EVER post your ip address online (it leaves you wide open to an attack) Regarding the upload, the figure you gave us typical of a probe of trackers for seeds/peers - your upload, however, seems to be high in the long term seeding and it's possible that has reduced your bandwidth for 'ordinary' uploads

Please don't ask the same question more than once

Usually if you log in from BitComet ('Forum') at the top menu, it will open in your default language. You can also log in by using http://bitcomet.com/en

There's no way to find out what anyone seeding a torrent has on their hard drive (it would be a bad security risk to allow a complete stranger to have access).

All I can think of now is to re-run the .torrent files and open them with BC - and set the folder to wherever you have it and then start. It's not a problem I've ever had to be honest, so it's sort of guess work on my end

Double check the folders - right click on any download and look in 'properties' It's possible that there is a different folder name

Please do NOT post links in this forum. If you are worried about malware, run a scan on the file

I would like to think things have improved in the TWELVE YEARS since the last post

Did you run a manual hash check on the downloaded files in the specified folder?

You'd need to invest in a laser etcher to be able to do that (presuming by 'digital files' you mean graphics)

Not only do I not use it - I don't even know what it is (or what it has to do with Bit Comet)

Set hidden files to 'view', go to C:\Users\<user name>\Roaming\Bitcomet and they're all in there

Hi right back

Please do NOT post links for files

Please don't post links to torrent sites. Also, we can't recommend any third party app

That can happen occasionally due to something interrupting it. In general, if you just leave it for a while it will settle down and then continue running.

It's possible that you are being throttled - it's equally possible that nobody wants to download (happens with some of my files - it shows zero peers and a collection of seeds but nothing happens). Other files work

Guys, PLEASE listen carefully: We KNOW there's a fault on the server None of the forum staff have access and we can't DO anything about it The server crew are voluntary, unpaid and do it in their spare time - they will look into it WHEN they get the time do do so Repeated demands here won't make it happen any faster. In the short term, let the app run for a couple of hours and try to sign in again (it works for me - if not the first time, then later) Apart from anything else, the ONLY thing affected is the points score (and those won't even buy you a sniff of a beer)

The guys who run the server do it in their spare time (unpaid). We just have to wait until they get a chance. byw, it will 'log in' if you leave it running for a few hors (it's just very slow)

soffa - read the earlier posts please

Guys, we know it's down and it has been reported. The people who operate the server don't work at qweekends so nothing will be donew until they get a chance to look at it

It has been reported (it's probably a failure in the database)

It's been reported
