Just wanted to add, due to my ISP’s craptastic router (FIOS MW) the NAT table is too small and hasnt allowed any of my torrent programs to run at full speed or upload at all. With this new 2.0 release it seems as though I do not have this problem anymore and although some people might disagree.. im just glad to see that it works without having to configure two routers to bypass this issue. If you dont know what im talking about then google fios router nat table and see what comes up. THX :D

I don’t know where to start…
Are you warez kids fucked up by drinking the municipal water or there just that many eating lead paint and living under power lines?! Seriously though so many stupid and truly ignorant comments it boggles the mind. Also all torrents are spied upon by MPAA, RIAA and governments if of interest if you don’t use a blocklist/blacklist or firewall/iptables your even more vulnerable but how many here actually ever monitored and traced IP to their true respective owners. My guess is very few if any in the list of posters. This majority w. a few exceptions reads like a retard fest on Youtube and/or Facebook, Twitter [Twats], or Myspace all of which ARE monitored by multiple governments not just USA as tards seem to think. The idea that the software is backdoored is laughable because it’s totally unnecessary. Think I’m a tin-foil hat type? Doesn’t matter as I am speaking of known and personally verified facts right now. Those last few comments were not opinions. Even TOR had it’s share of issues of rogue unblockable govt nodes but I digress… The throttle control can be turned off in uTorrent so it’s a moot point and has been hammered into ignorant trolls heads in many comments but obviously some kids have ADD/ADHD or cannot be bothered to read posts of others. This is like trainwreck of confusion and misinformation on this page is making my head hurt. Private Trackers who just don’t get it or feel snubbed go to hell and count your ad revenue when you get there. Average P2P users posting here and elsewhere probably have a dozenb toolbars in their browsers from forgetting to uncheck a box during multitudes of software installs and we can also assume they have so much spyware/adware on their boxes that they can only shrug their shoulders because they think the interwebz are stealing their megahertz. Other P2P developers stop bitching if it’s really open source and update your sh*t w/ the times. I’m sure this will be seen as a troll post but I can only take so many dumb comments before I want to snap a neck of a baby seal and rip it’s entrails out. =p For those who posted something here to be the voice of reason and set people straight I thank you for herding these poor lost sheep. I knew how ridiculous the premiss of banning uTorrent users was based on over a decade of application testing and ‘looking under the hood’ of things in the this dismal virtual world. Good luck to the muppets who just don’t get it!

These private tracker owners that are so concerned about it being bad, did you check them out?

Usually they’re what we call the ‘lunatic fringe’ – the kind that think every version of utorrent after 1.6.1 is spying on you for the MPAA, the kind that think you HAVE to increase the net.max_halfopen else it doesn’t work, that bitcomet (and others like bitlord) leak across DHT so you must disable DHT or else.

All these things have something in common with the basis of the article – they’re all claimed by some private tracker admins. They have something else in common too, they’re all baloney.

It takes no knowledge of bittorrent to run a tracker, especially a private tracker. Instead it’s running a few well documented install instructions, and then go hang around in idiot echo-chambers (such as http://thepiratesociety.org ) where you get stupid settings, and attempts to micromanage.

Thats what it comes down to, their basic knowledge of bittorrent fails to allow them to understand the zero-sum game that is bittorrent transfer in a closed peerfield (such as a private tracker). What they’re mostly upset at though, is their cash-cow donors being dropped down the priority queue, meaning they’re less likely to hand over the cash the admins like to see coming in.

Thats all this is, ‘admins’ worried they might have to get a real job to pay for their pot, or school books, trying to manufacture a situation so they can keep their easy income, without people realizing how clueless they really are”

YOU ARE QUITE POSSIBLY THE STUPIDEST MOTHERFUKER I’VE EVER SEEN POST ON THE TF COMMENTS.

@139 Hey dumbass its been mentioned like 10 times:

Options -> Preferences -> Bittorrent -> Uncheck Enable Bandwidth Management

That said, uTorrent 2.0 isn’t banned on What, Waffles, bG, IPT, Goem, AB etc. so I am just fine with uTP disabled.
