How does a private torrent tracker associate the downloader with my account? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hi, I was wondering how they do this and if there is a way to "cheat" the amount of data you are downloading or seeding.

Filelist org while it no longer exists was a private tracker and I can absolutely say the cheating ratio client completely worked.

While I'm not proud of keeping myself ratio balanced that way (I had a very tiny upload compared to download) I can absolutely say a hacked uttorrent client kept me well above ratio at the time.

It worked well although I kinda glad I haven't seen similar mods sinxe

They still exist, just look up ratio cheaters. The SBI forums have some more info. Here’s a link: http://www.sb-innovation.de/showthread.php?35592-qBittorrent-4-5-4

Worked back then. Would not recommend today.
