fix or abolish torrent activity indicators
#1
lately there has been a lot of active torrents that show 0 seeders and leechers in the search results.

take http://uj3wazyk5u4hnvtk.onion/torrent/12...64-KILLERS[EtHD] for example it is 0 on the activity but yet it downloaded very fast for me but still shows 0 on leechers and seeders.

i am using onion version of tpb so i dont know if it is a problem with the script that gets the info and sends it to the onion page but not the normal page or something.

TPB doesn't have accurate stats, but that doesn't mean that a torrent is still alive or not. Fixing the stats is not going to happen soon/ever, and abolishing it is just stupid. You can literally see just how many seeders/leechers there are with just a click of a button. Rely on your torrent client for updated stats.

Brilliant idea. Thank you so much. If we don't leave them as they are we will definitely fix or abolish them.

Well, i really dont care about inaccurate statistics, but 0/0 makes it harder to find torrents. I personally dont care since i search on uploaders. But most ppl just search for example the movie name. And then it shows 0/0 on every new torrent for the last couple of weeks.

Maybe change default to newest torrents first?

Edit:
I really am not complaining, and i know u are all doing this in ur free time. And i really respect that. So i can understand fixing this isnt and wont be top priority. Just saying what i think what might work

i figure why waste bandwidth on displaying non functional stuff?

of course if they wanted to conserve bandwidth they would convert over to cell phone compliant pages consisting of just text ( no images, no divider bars) just text or even go rss only

nah not really i click 0/0 all the time just to see whats up and so far i have only had about 1/4 of the zeros come up empty most have 1 or 2 seeds left . ok ok so there slow seeds took weeks for one to connect on a heart concert and left me @ .01% but hes there and im still waiting and as of last night theres 2 so just try em and see . you could end up being the savior of the torrent and thats never a bad thing ....Smile

Wow, look for example at yifys torrents all saying 0/0 and trust me those torrents have lots of seeders. This topic isnt about slow torrents...... next time take the time to read what this is about <3
