Very specific bug of qbit v4 onwards leading to bans on trackers

Post by Dstream »

Apparently qbit according to the forums can update the download / uploaded ratio / data twice to the tracker

System

Client Bans PM sent to all user groups
There have been a few reports of some clients incorrectly reporting data to our tracker. This issue seems to be centered around qBittorrent and affects v4.0.0 and up.

Several versions of qBittorrent have already been banned and the remaining v4.x is under review and will be banned.

Unsupported clients might appear to work properly as far as downloading and seeding.

However, if your client reports incorrect data to the tracker, your ratio can be affected. If the client you are using is NOT on the Supported List, you use it at your own risk.

Most Recently Bans

- qBittorrent - All 4.0 - 4.3.6 - Could dupe-submit final update to tracker (affects the ratio)
* Although all 4.x version has not been banned, we have evidence of the same behavior (use at own risk)
