Locked torrent status is downloading

[MIAN MUZAMMAL]

Hi guys, I have an issue I download a torrent file of Zorin os 16.1 torrent it contains its all versions but I choose pro only and I skip others. but the website is showing that I'm still downloading that torrent it's because of the files I skip, I just want to make sure if it's good or not. I download it from a few weeks ago and it's still in leeching section

That is normal behavior! Tracker counts only Fully downloaded torrents as completed

If you download full torrent you will see it on your seeding section, not half or some of the torrent .. so it's normal..

does it effect my ratio

Practically No. But You don't earn seed-bonus points because they arrive only for fully downloaded torrents which are on seed!

does it effect my ratio

Answer is Yes & no ...
No : if it's a freeleech then it will not add to your download data ..
Yes : if you upload something for others then it will add to your uploaded data .. also you will get seedbonus ..

It's normal.
What you did is known as partial leeching or partial download.

In order to get seeding status, you must download 100%.
Other wise you'll get leeching status on tracker stat.

And yes. It will affect your ratio if that torrent isn't freeleech.
