Tired of your bullshit, utorrent

[trumpet-205]

I stopped using uTorrent a long time ago.

These days I use qBittorent.

I remember using Azureus. Then I found uTorrent and never turned back.

I haven't had any problems, so I see no reason to change it.

 

[Dork]

Use uTorrent 2.2 (Stable)

This guy gets it.

This proves that people complain because of ignorance, you can disable all adware on uTorrent, the advanced options are there for you to use. But Still i recommend maximum 3.3.1 because other superior versions are banned on some anime websites.

Hey, don't be too harsh. I mean, a torrent client stopping working all of a sudden as a torrent client, with the ads obstructing its basic functionnality, is pretty unexpected.. and unpleasant.
Please Understand.
(your remark about sites banning the ulterior versions is spot-on, might be the reason, but that would be not just the anime sites)

Like Costy said, Transmission.
Or use the original Bittorrent, it's pretty good.

Transmission-QT seems pretty interesting. I'll give it a try

So are ads the modern equivalent of scurvy for today's pirates?

Well, I'm not sure. To fight scurvy, you eat fruits, but in a lot of ads out there, you see fruits being eaten. Just... not nearly as pleasant as you would think.

So why does no one use BitTorrent anyway?

There's nothing wrong with uTorrent.
My version of uTorrent (3.4.1 beta) runs better than the supposed 'ultimate' version 2.2.
A little configuration and all the problems are solved.

I use 3.4.1 on private trackers despite the client being frowned upon. I've never had an issue with seeding or downloading.

The only issue is youTorrent.

Edit

 

[Hells Malice]

I have 3.2.3 and the ONLY "ad" on my screen is in the bottom left corner just saying "upgrade to utorrent pro". I stopped upgrading mainly because I have never found a need to, I get fantastic download rates as is.

utorrent, like many programs, are often hindered the most by incompetence of the user, not the program itself. If you set utorrent up properly it works just peachy perfect. I've never had a problem with it and I use it very, very, very often.

 

[calmwaters]

People still download torrents? Wow. I haven't used my program in ages. I've got great access to physical items for great prices. But I love the Metroid Prime Trilogy so (and that Ben 10 game is pretty cool too). And I won't forget the Power Rangers; see, there's some good stuff available.

 

[DJPlace]

i found this torrent client called BitLord it's the best torrent thing i have ever found in my life!! try it once and see if you like it or not.

 

[enarky]

rtorrent4lyfe!

I kind of miss utorrents tagging functionality, though.

 

[Depravo]

I'm still on 1.8.2. Apparently it was all downhill after this release.

 

[Jiehfeng]

I use bittorrent, I get very few ads, but not that big thingy. o.o

 

[Tom Bombadildo]

OMG UTORRENT WORST PROGRAM EVER LOOK AT ALL THOSE ADS

 

[duffmmann]

I've never seen an ad or any of the like on utorrent, maybe something else already on your computer made that stuff pop up to begin with within the utorrent client.

When uTorrent updated to 3.0 (or whatever it was that included the ads) they were on by default for me. Thanks to some fiddling around I did from instructions I found through google, I don't have any ads.

 

[JoostinOnline]

I'm still on 2.2.1

 

[Arras]

This guy gets it.

I don't really see your point.
