Safe Ghost Leeching

June 30, 2007

I made this post on a forum about cheating… i though i would put it up here as well :)

i don’t know whether this is well know or not but…. WHAT IF:

i have a friend called A who is a member of oink. and i am B. user B does not have a account on oink.
A download a torrent called supermusic. and then he starts leeching/seeding it in the legit way. he doesn’t do any cheating or anything, except giving me(user B) the peer list! Tongue he do this by saving the peer list and then emailing it to me. and then i use something like Azureze or utorrent… modified or not…. and i import the peer list that user A gave me. and then i start to leech from the peers in the peer list.

so how is that? as far as i can think(or i have thinked rather Wink) there is no way oink is gonna ban me! because i don’t have a oink account in the first place. and oink is not going to find out that user A(the legit user gave me the peer list, as everyone downloading the torrent have the peer list). the only thing that the users could do to block me is to ban my ip from there clients…. that would be effective in the long run… and for the tracker… they will have no clue! or even if they see that there peers have been uploading to some ghost peer!, they can’t ban or do anything about it… they may even think that the ghost peer got the peer list throgh some user who have DHT enabled….

if the ‘ghost peer’(user B/me) manages to stay low… he will be undetected…. and he will be able of leeching/seeding from the swarm with out borthering aobut the nazi big brother oink! Cheesy

what do you say people? do anyone see any hole in this method? i am sure that the tracker admins are aware of this… i just wanna hear your comments on this… cause i am thinking of trying this out… hehe and you know where i am gonna try this out! Wink
