I read a few of the comments on Tunebully, and they are saying that your torrents contained additional trackers in them besides tunebully. And they say that by adding those additional trackers, non-tunebully members were leaching off of tunebully members and slowing the downloads for them.
I will go to bat for you at the site, but is it true that your torrents intentionally contained stacked trackers?

SAME TORRENT EXACTLY except for the stacked trackers. Dogbolters swarm had 100 Bitcomet users that he felt should enjoy the speeds that are available here.
Dogbolter will no longer be making his release available here by our request"
i put the show up on mini nova per request by someone on here and that somehow screwed me with "stacked trackers" which i have no clue what that is and i didn't do it intentionally, again all i did was put the show up at mininova too as a request to somebody on this blog, im not mad just explaining what i did
From the message boards at Tunebully regarding stacked trackers:
"i think the problem is that mininova is not actually a tracker, it is more a search engine type of thing.. when you click on a torrent in mininova, it actually downloads the .torrent file that points you to an actual tracker (eg tunebully, tpb, etc).
tunebully is a private tracker meaning that if you connect to it, you need to have registered and logged in before it will start giving you the file. TPB is a public tracker meaning no login necessary.
the point of uploading the tunebully .torrent file to mininova is so that people who search mininova (via the website or the search bar in utorrent) will find a hit to our site when looking for music.. they then come here and register and see what else we have to offer and stay and seed their butts off (best case scenario i know).
if you add TPB tracker to the .torrent file that you create that you then upload to mininova, it will give the user 2 trackers to connect to when downloading their files which sort of defeats the purpose of having a private tracker listed on there because they will then get the file from the public tracker.."
I understand he wants to stack our tracker and the TPB tracker. It's easy to do. Seperate each tracker by a blank line when creating the torrent.
However if the tunebully tracker is not in first place it will not upload here and vice versa I think.
Your best bet would be to create two seperate torrents and upload them accordingly. Then stack as you seed them. Your client will do that for you. Should you create two seperate torrents you can get credited correctly from both trackers.

This was the one of the funniest shows I have ever heard, well mainly the conversation between Artie and George. I was F-Ing rolling.
