Torrent question

Post by ganonbanned »

I dont know if I can ask this, but im not asking for links or anything so dont worry. If this is not allowed delete it.

I have a torrent that wont download. it starts and gets to 9.6%, and then stops. there are no errors. it was stuck on 9.6 for about 2 days. I just stopped downloading it. that was about a week ago, today i found the same torrent on a different site. I downloaded it, and its still stuck on 9.6. is there anything I can do about this? wtf?

This is a semi-common problem. Basically, no one on the torrent has a complete seed, so you'll just get the parts that the current seeders have. Until someone connects to the torrent with a full seed, you're going to be stuck at 9.6%.
