problem been, if someone was to download said torrent.. they cant.. because nobody would have it..

spend 10 euro, buy a dedicated server from kimsufi and just have a seedbox..
looks better with your reputation especially when starting out..

XBTT is pretty much hard coded, (and in the sql it has its cleanup command time)

Thanks Snipe,

I know, thats the funny part. We don't want them to be able to download We want them to freak out when they cannot. We are just targeting a local group of "frienemies"
The thing is we don't want fake seeders we want fake leechers. You can seet the numbers in the config file but like you said when the tracker updates it resets it back to 0.
Ithink the relevant function is here:

buffer += Csql_query(m_database, "(?,?,?,?),")(file.leechers)(file.seeders)(file.completed)(file.fid).read();
                file.dirty = false;
                if (buffer.size() > 255 << 10)
                    break;
            }
            if (buffer.empty())
                break;
            buffer.erase(buffer.size() - 1);
            async_query("insert into " + db_name("files") + " (" + db_name("leechers") + ", " + db_name("seeders") + ", " + db_name("completed") + ", " + db_name("fid") + ") values "
                + buffer
                + " on duplicate key update"
                + "  " + db_name("leechers") + " = values(" + db_name("leechers") + "),"
                + "  " + db_name("seeders") + " = values(" + db_name("seeders") + "),"
                + "  " + db_name("completed") + " = values(" + db_name("completed") + "),"
                + "  mtime = unix_timestamp()");
            
             buffer.clear();
        }

But I do not know how to prevent this.
