Liz81 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 I got the torrent file from torrenthound and they show 25 seeds (and 5 leechers). So I tried to download it and nothing's happening. Under the trackers, there are 0 seeds but a few peers. So I don't know if I really have some seeds or not. Torrenthound says 25 seeds but under trackers, there's 0 seeds. Does that mean the seeders are just not online or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 That torrent doesn't actually have seeds on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz81 Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Great. Now it's going to be really hard to tell whether a torrent really has seeds or not. Torrenthound had the torrent file and had 25 seeds. This is what it looked like and led me to believe it actually had seeds. I also don't get why they have a bunch of files at piratebay if both seeds and leechers are 0. What's the point of downloading it if there's no seeds or leechers at all?

Harold Feit Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 torrenthound apparently uses cached peer info with no indication on how old the data is. Don't rely on the site numbers to make your decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
