The version of Ktorrent I'm using is 2.0.3 (using KDE 3.5.5) - anyone have any ideas how this could happen before I get banned from this tracker ?

I don't know if this is related to your problem or not (I thought all the tracker reporting issues were resolved in the 2.x series), but you are running an old version of ktorrent. Try upgrading to the latest 2.2.2 and hopefully that will fix your problem.

Good Luck

Looking at the number's involved and having read up on the bittorrent protocol some I'm wondering if it's possible that I had issued a stopall / startall too close together ? Could the tracker have received some start events before receiving the stop events which it should have received a few seconds previously ? i.e for the 1st one the tracker receives a stop event with a reported upload of 7.8M 1 second after it's received a start event for the same torrent on a different session ?

Code: Select all

session 1:
<----uploaded 7.8M ----->
session 2:
                        <-----uploaded blah ----->

I was seeding 143 torrents at this particular tracker at the time if that helps.

Thanks in advance,
Q

Just upgrade to 2.2.2, in the past it could be possible that the order was not correct all the time, but these bugs have been fixed.

I can upgrade sure, but the problem is I'm trying to convince the tracker admin that the upload results shown here are a genuine mistake and not from the use of a cheat program to improve my overall share ratio on the tracker

If the tracker admin is wise, he should not have let you used an older version then 2.1.
