I have to agree, I'm about to just leave that room entirely.

but this is not the only one
i've tried it for over 5 torrents
full focus on here
Roland Taylor
Roland Taylor
I'm trying it in transmission and getting errors too
I think that torrent might either be faulty, or dead
Explorer

k k
let's try another one
Roland Taylor
Roland Taylor
Every single tracker (and there are many) claims that it's dead :(

That one is mostly working
a few trackers don't have the file though
(so stupid - why do they list the file if they don't have it :P)
Explorer

doesn't work for me
Roland Taylor
Roland Taylor
right-click the torrent and click ask for more peers
Does that help at all?

Oh I had a similar situation
Some of the trackers do work
but the others are showing as red cause they no longer have the torrent or have no peers
It's pretty normal, but I guess Transmission shows it poorly :(

it doesn't start to download?
k i guess i should talk about mc book air so everyone will go here
Roland Taylor
Roland Taylor
lolol
sorry :P
@Explorer it started to download for me
but if it is not downloading for you then the peers you have are being selfish
a lot of peers do that - they just announce that they have a torrent but they limit their sharing to nothing :(
Explorer
Explorer
is there any solution?
Roland Taylor
Roland Taylor
in all honesty - nope :(
it sucks, but if the peers don't share there is nothing we can do :(
And the other problem is a lot of movie producers are cracking down on file sharing
especially from thepiratebay
Explorer
Explorer
oboy, that means I should live the rest of my file without downloading movies?
Roland Taylor
Roland Taylor
LOL
No, it just may mean trying a program like Vuze
those programs have dedicated communities, so they get a better download rate and the peers actually share

I don't use Vuze cause I hate java programs :P - but it might be awesome for you :D
There's that and also there is frostwire, and utorrent
Explorer
Explorer
yeah I saw a question about it there
but i was thinking i don't need that while transmission works well
Roland Taylor
Roland Taylor
Transmission is great when you're downloading torrents with good peers, otherwise, use Vuze :P
I'm like you though - I prefer tranmission :D
it "just works"
