Marky Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 (edited) Right, well im downloading a huge fuck off folder of Puddle Of Mudd stuff ( How cool am I?!)And basically the torrent was pottering along, downloading nicely, and then suddenly stopped. This is the printscreen.I can guess that someone will say 'It stopped downlaoding because it thinks POM are shite; or something like that But yes, back on topic. Point 1. Why is the download speed so slow?Point 2. Why does it say it's not downloading at all?Point 3. Why is it uploading that slowly? It varies between 15 weeks to 3 and a half years Will I have to wait for it to all upload before I get the rest? There are still some files that aren't fully downloaded yet.Is there anything I have to do, or do I just wait?Thankyou Edited September 18, 2008 by markyboy101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky Posted September 18, 2008 Author Share Posted September 18, 2008 Now the torrent is neither downloading or uploading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Try pausing it, then remove it. Reboot and go onto the site again and start downloading it. After it is done rechecking everything it's already downloaded, it should continue after a few minutes. That always works for me.Make sure it's got seeders too.

Marky Posted September 18, 2008 Author Share Posted September 18, 2008 Right, I'll do that. ATM there's no seeders, but it says that there are 10 (15) 'Peers', whatever they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I still don't know what peers are, but if there are no seeders, that is probably why it t stopped. Any probably the reason it won't continue if you tried what I told you to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsguy Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 you can never finish if there is no seeders, seeders = people with 100% of the pieces in the downloadleechers = people with pieces (like you) of the file not completewithout seeders there is no downloading at allGunsguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Satanisk_Slakt Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 (edited) you can never finish if there is no seeders, seeders = people with 100% of the pieces in the downloadleechers = people with pieces (like you) of the file not completewithout seeders there is no downloading at allGunsguyHypothesis it can, if there are other leechers who have got the files you don't, and you have got the ones they haven't. That way, you can help each other to become seeders. :xmassrudolph: Or well, I don't know anything about it, I'm just guessing.

Hypothetically maybe but unfortunately that does not give you a seed, and without a seed you will stay stuck on a download for ever or untill a seed returns, I would leave it up if you really want it sometimes people only seed at certain times but they do seedGunsguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunsguy Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 What's a peer?R.a peer is a leecher, a leecher means the person does not have the file, and is downloading pieces of it.Peer(Leecher) = someone who does not have all the pieces of the file yetSeeder(seeds) = someone who has the entire 100% filehope this helpsGunsguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
