For several years now, about 10-15% of my new torrents end up with zero seeders and leechers being indicated forever by TPB. In these cases, I have had to delete my torrent, and slightly change it (by for instance adding a text file comment) because I cannot re-upload an identical torrent. Then, the seeders and leechers statistics problem is usually solved (although I once had to re-upload a torrent twice). I know you are going to tell me that the seeders and leechers statistics are often inaccurate...blah, blah, blah. But that is not the same as when they always indicate zero!! Anybody wanting to download a torrent is going to be reluctant to do so when it looks like the torrent is dead. Thank you very much, but I don't want my torrents to appear dead! Is there any chance that some genius at TPB can fix this bug in your software?

It's happened to me quite a number of times. Not much I can do really I don't usually modify torrents once I've made them. I think the people that upload from me know that I always seed everything and that even if it shows 0 then it means that I'm still sharing it regardless. Don't forget though that most things also end up on limetorrents.info and on that page they usually show seeds compared to the TPB site. Like for example a while ago I made a Harry Potter torrent and it was very good but when I uploaded it, it showed 0 and 0. I was pretty gutted as I'd done all the audio for the movies and all kinds of things. Have also done several other things and spent time on them to discover that when uploaded it just appeared dead upon completion. I do get a lot of downloaders especially now. You can't always go with what you see on TPB, it might say one thing but it means another that's just how the whole TPB experience goes. I'd love to fix some of mine that have done that but I think that will never happen.

The answer is simply to ignore the numbers here, they are almost never right.
A simple check of the torrent in your client would show if there are seeders and leechers.
