Thank you for a very informative answer greywizard! :o I feel I have to apologize for my sloppy language in my initial post now tho 
Actually, the most frequently updated support pages, nowadays, can be found on the Wiki pages. Nonetheless the forum staff tries its best to mirror the most important changes and additions on both sites. Still, the forum guides and FAQ hold some complementary info, to the Wiki. But the most recent updates in the program are found on Wiki first, usually.
I knew this. That is why i said I couldnt believe my eyes. When i left here, one could never ever get to know what a feature meant or anything like that. A “wiki” did not exist. Perhaps it was different for the chinese users. (it was well divided back then, east and west, and that is what i meant that things changed for the better here as the last time the west was left cold)
That feature is still present in BitComet, though I don’t think it’s a third party software anymore. It seems integrated in BitComet’s code. If clicked upon it merely checks for updates of the applications installed and opens a browser page of the apphit.com site which hosts all the Comet team’s applications, too. I’m guessing it a sort of partnership. Indeed, it can be disabled in the program options. If that bothers you, it means you’ll have to stick with the old versions. I don’t mind it. In fact I’ve used it a couple of times, since it showed me some update versions for Skype and something else which I don’t remember now.
I see. Well to be honest i do prefer it being part of the code rather than being a seperate application at least, so this can be looked over then for me. Thanks.
Last time I’ve checked the snapshots feature was working. I myself, barely use it, but I was testing it out of curiosity. LTseeding seems to work very well (at least for me :P) since in some cases I was getting as much as 140kB extra speed off LT seeds. Of course, many times you get nothing. But, hey, you loose nothing, isn’t it? The HTTP issue seems to have been fixed in v.1.05 as you can see in the changelog (if that’s what you were referring to). The peers sending corrupted pieces isue was addressed again and reportedly fixed in v.1.11.
Great information. Yes the LT seed is a very innovate feature, which could have helped me many times in the past. And what i meant with the HTTP transfer is just that when I used ~1.00, and tried it, it often corrupted the download, saying for example for an .exe that “the file is not a win32 application” error. And then when redownloaded, error did not occur. I read the changelog regarding 1.05 and I dont think such a thing is mentioned there. But I will experiment with this myself.
The EVENT_COMPLETE issue was revised, indeed, in v.1.02 to send the message only when all pieces of a torrent are downloaded; it was re-addressed in v.1.15, too. As for the STOP command at the stop of the task is implemented since v.0.49. I’m not sure to which issue you refer when mentioning the “correct up/down to tracker”. Other than allegations which lacked back up info I’m not aware of anything. If you do, elaborate please. But anyway what I can tell you is that many private trackers clearly allow the latest versions of BitComet along with all the other major BT clients. I’m using it myself on a couple of them with no problem at all. We have to thank for that to some elders of this forum too, who lobbied several tracker admins for BC, explaining them all the changes and improvements BC suffered in the last time.
What I meant with the STOP command is the fact that when you litterally “stop” the torrent (I dont mean when torrent completes) in many BitComet versions (even 0.70 which I use currently) it does not send the STOP command. This was an old issue that never seemed to go away but I will experiment with this myself (It doesnt matter much…Im used to manually connect the tracker before removing the torrent by now anyway hehe)
And what I meant with “correct up/down” (excuse the language will you please? ) was that some very few versions of earlier BitComet had problem with misreporting the stats to trackers. I got banned for it once very long ago. After the rewrite of BitComet, I was just asking to make sure it didnt arise again or something I am also a member of some serious private trackers, and that is why. But since you say it is no problem for you then I take your word for it
Although the dev team from China is doing all the hard work, most of the forum staff is not part of the dev team. Some of them are registered and visit certain sections of the forum, occasionally. Especially the Bug Reports section and the Admin section.
But we have sophia who is the usual liaison with the team and who passes both ways all the info, questions and answers and also, initially, updates the Wiki pages with all the info about the new features. There is The_Unusual_Suspect, too, who keeps more or less in touch with the team admin on the forum.
Yes. From a quick look around here, things here have improved massively since my last visit.
I have a few other questions too if I may?
First, I did read the wiki page for LT seeding here: http://wiki.bitcomet.com/Long-Time_Seeding
But it doesnt really clarify the feature completely. For example:
It is supposed to seed even if I stop/remove the torrent yes? (which I am fine with, I have a 100mbit line to spare) Then what if I complete the torrent, remove it from bitcomet, and then physicly move the file from its location to a completely different one? Optimally it should stop the seeding then. But does it? How does it work? It wont prevent me from moving the file at least right? And a somewhat unrealistic thought strikes me; it wont try continiue to seed the file from its new location somehow right?
Second, I noticed you can sign up for something, which you can tie the client too. Which promises better speed. What does this do? I tried look around for a description, excuse me if i missed it >.<
**[edit]Ignore this, I found it in the wiki ^^ I must be blind… **
Thirdly, the emule plugin. I understand its use. I have used emule before. it just seems, how do I put it? Odd? ..to use in paralell with a torrent program. Can the 2 applications at same time transfer seamlessly into the same file?? it seems impossible. Is the plugin really made that good so that it works smoothly? and most importantly, will it continiue to share the file I downloaded? And also, does it somehow hurt my normal emule use? (I just fire it up occasionally for rare files). Are there any details of theese things? Again I am sorry if I missed it somehow…
hope theese things can be answered sorry if am being persistant hehe
Thanks for many clarifications greywizard!
