Your fake upload settings seems fine.
You should never have the same torrent running in more than one client or tool, specially in WCD.

You chose 3.1 in the drop down list but your custom ID is from 3.3, you should fix that, and more importantly edit this picture and hide the portion that comes after "-UT3300-", this can be linked to you and have you disabled in case there's anyone from the tracker watching this post.

Yes but I want it to read as 3.3.1 and I don't know how to do that and there in no 3.3.1 spoof at the program

At this moment it seems that uT 3.3.x versions use a different type of peer_ID string, making it random at every announce, so for now it's best to downgrade until the coders from here come up with a workaround.

I think i did it
I checked the peer list in two different trackers and it seem like that
imgur: the simple image sharer
So everything is fine and I can go for WCD ?

Guys... dear Anon? So, there is a seedbox dude who uploaded lots of cool stuff lately... so that would be a nice idea downloading from him and keeping what.cd in the dark, if you know what I mean:)) Yeah, one particular uploader with a seedbox. So, should I get his IP and install DHT-modded client utorrent...right? Is this the right way or no chances?:)

Possible workaround: Go to utorrent preferences -> advanced -> and set "bt.randomize_peer_id" to false

Is it possible that they would match torrents with excess upload credit, indicating that someone has cheated, to a member who has downloaded said torrent files, but has never announced them to the tracker? There is no way to obtain the exact torrent files without actually downloading from a valid account, putting that account into jeopardy. them It seems too easy to gather peer addresses of a couple dozen Elite TM seedboxers, Karamanolev, users seeding other albums of the same artist, and just try them out in sequence.

We're still waiting for anon's method to tear w.cd a new one.
Till then no more new acc.s for me.

Yes, and I'd be surprised if they didn't log that

Although there may be a couple of workarounds.

Go on! Don't stop now!

Maybe in our supersecret member section, where chances of tracker staff reading the information are -20%

I want to test a few things, but that will have to wait until I fire up my desktop computer this weekend. If my surge protector has been repaired by then, anyway.

I successfully cheated approx. double my real upload during the last staff picks. I downloaded all of them and cheated on around two 3rds while the overall traffic was heavy within 4-15 hours since the torrents were announced. I made about 50 gb that way. The free torrents became useless for seeding in a week or so, and I've deleted them. I now have enough buffer to not worry about it much. My speed is reasonably fast, but the number and speed of seedboxes is also growing. They're so much faster that seeding freeleech after the first surge is pointless.

Regarding ghostleeching from seedboxes, I have downloaded two batches of FLAC albums one time from Karamanolev and the other time from a few regular users. This did not result in a ban for them because they still appeared on peer lists later. I avoided visiting their profiles so I can't be certain that they were not disabled. I used a different IP address for downloading.

I reckon, since Karamanolev (145.255.200.106:51413 .. 51440) is such a prominent seed of popular torrents, he might be keeping logs and might provide them to staff upon request. This didn't happen last December, but might be happening now. It might be an idea for staff if ghostleeching becomes more frequent. I've been thinking about it. Since torrent retention on the site is high, it might be possible to re-use torrents downloaded years earlier for ghostleeching from these known IPs. I stopped and removed these torrents from my client immediately after they were done. I wouldn't be providing their peer list over DHT for other people, as was suggested earlier, cos what if later (after looking at logs) staff suspects my peer and decides to probe it for some of the tracker's torrents.

Fucking fucking fuck I just been banned

using mRatio 5.0.3, 5 Mo/s down and up on a 30 GB torrent. Plus I just did this account it lasted just a few hours :(

Quick question, if I get another account, can I download torrents with the same IP? Or I 100% must use another IP? Do they link the IP that download? Thanks.
