qb not reporting all seeding torrents to trackers

Anyone else experienced this?
Notably on Gazelle-based trackers, when you have a large number of torrents, qb seems to report only part of the torrents (most gazelle-trackers reward users just for seeding). For instance, out of 1000 torrents, only 30, 40 are reported as active on the client. Then I do this: pause all of them. After doing that, all of them go "errored" at the trackers side panel. Then I resume all and rapidly they start leaving out the errored status on tracker panel - one can actually see the number of errored "announces" gradually decreasing to some number, say 600. So this is not enough to fix their status, because hundreds of them still appear errored. So I have to do this pause/resume routine again and again...
Problem is not losing "seeding bonus", it's that the number of peers and the upload rate consequently decrease, because the torrents they are interested in, albeit being displayed as SEEDING on your client, are not seen by the tracker.
