Ok i just downloaded this tornado deal, and the whole idea i guess is cool. but unless youve probably been doing this thing for a while, its a shitty program, or so it may seem. Before i got this, i used regular BT and would click a file to download, it would connect to peers, and would download no problem, except it was rather slow, so i wanted to be able to change the settings and allow it to go faster. I did the port forwarding thing, and that helped a bit. then i see this tornado thing. i download it, and start to try it out. i click the file i want to download, and its been 4 mins and its still trying to connect to peers. now I KNOW the problem is not that theres no one to download it from, becuase before i got this tornado thing, there were plenty of people. it cant be a problem with the ports, because everything was all good with the bittorent program.
also, WTF, you people speak of '% of upload rate and download rate'. well how the fuck do i figure out my connections max rate? when you help, sometimes u need to keep in mind that not all of us do this shit all the time. so please if you help, go into detail and use lamen terms.
