on the torrent you're having a problem with,in Utorrent,highlight the torrent(leftclick),then right click and where you see bandwidth allocation put that to high and hit force start.this may help getting the seed going.

good one, thanks Hammer for that little tip

I just started using this tracker about a day ago and I'm having the exact same problem. Using utorrent 1.8.3, I can upload to other public and private sites fine, but can't connect to any peers on this tracker and therefor can't upload a damn byte. To make matters worse, the freeleech torrent I was going to use to get my upload ratio up(because it has very few seeders compared to leechers) is giving me the "Failure, Connection limit exceeded!" error. I have been warned about my ratio, and I'm hoping this problem will fix itself soon. I'm going to try re-setting my passkey and re-downloading my torrents. Now that I've seen there is a 3 page thread on this I know it isn't just me or on my end.

Update: Re-setting my passkey and re-downloading my torrents has fixed the "Failure, Connection limit exceeded!" error, as it always does. Now I just have to hope the tracker will let me connect to some peers soon, or my ratio will end up so bad I will get banned before I can fix it.

Thanks for the help!

Update#2: Well I gave up on being able to upload anything to this site's peers(even though I am seeding and it says I am connected to them, go figure) so I donated 10 USD even though I don't have the money to spare, I live off SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance, in other words I can't work).

Hopefully what is causing myself and multiple other new users not to be able to upload to peers/leechers will be corrected, it is a pain to start using a community site and not be able to contribute any upload data!

What is the weirdest thing of all is that I have never heard a word from any of the official uploaders about this problem. Whenever there is a scenerelease upped there seem to be no connection problems and hundreds of downloads. There are many normal users that seed and have excellent ratios. Larger parts of uploaders sys to have no problems uploading or connecting. I have made some tests myself and have not experienced any problems with connecting to the peers.

Why is it different for some people? I dont know. Is it or is it something else that is wrong? Does your ISP block your upload to only this site? Are your settings wrong, maybe you have a router and have not opened a port for your client... And other questions that can only be answered if you give me more exact details about your isp and location, I recommend you send those in private message, and I will continue to test and maybe change the tracker core if needed, but patience please..

As long as I see that most people dont have this problem I will tend to think it is a local problem not a direct tracker issue but I can be wrong.

I'm having the same problem, though 12 years later. Have paid twice to join (fair deal) because no matter how long I leave my seeds open, nothing is uploaded. Interesting change recently is that I somehow managed to upload 130MB of the recent BKFC but that's where it ended. Like the others, I have a very fast connection and can seed on public trackers without issue.

Was there a resolution for the users who commented above?

I think the solution might be on an individual basis most of the times.

But have you tried seeding behind a service like WARP? https://1.1.1.1/

Would be interesting to see if it helps!

Thank you for your response!

I'm trying WARP right now (seems like a VPN or VPN alternative?) and if anything it's made things worse. My BKFC torrent is stuck at the same 130MB uploaded, and all my public torrents have stopped seeding as well. Will go back to NordVPN and keep trying to figure it out I guess.

On this note, am I able to download freely until my DL exceeds my UL? Asking because after my VIP ran out the first time I couldn't seem to download anymore without donating again (torrent was "stalled"), even though my ratio was good.

Thanks again, and I hope to start seeding like crazy soon!!

You have all the details regarding ratio and how it works in the rules

https://mma-torrents.com/rules.php

What is ratio?

A user's share ratio for any individual torrent is a number determined by dividing the amount of data that user has uploaded by the amount of data they have downloaded. Final share ratios over 1.0 carry a positive connotation in the BitTorrent community, because they indicate that the user has sent more data to other users than they received. Likewise, share ratios under 1 have negative connotation.

This means that if you download 1 GB you must upload 1 GB to maintain a 1.0 ratio. Your over all ratio is calculated by dividing the amount of GB's you up and downloaded. Our rules allow you to maintain a slightly lower ratio and still remain active. You can see your current ratio on the HOME page just under "Welcome, yourusername".

When could I risk getting auto disabled?

When your ratio drops below 0.4 you will get a warning in a Private Message here on the tracker that will tell you that you have 2 weeks to improve your ratio. If you fail to do so in 2 weeks your account will be auto disabled. To get your ratio up over the minimum allowed again during those 2 weeks you can upload new torrents, add seed on old torrents with leechers and of course donate. If your account gets disabled, do not try to create a new account, instead please use the "Reactivate disabled account" function.

I would also recommend that you read the forum guides on the topic like this one for example:
