he uses torrent sites to fold for your team
see these torrent links for evidence - i hope you ban him
i was looking for a no dvd for a game i just bought and found his upload then i discovered it installed a F@H client with his details.
i then searched further, this guy is a public menace.

i reported him to mininova and all his torrents have been removed by the moderators there.
i have reported him to bittorrentmonster hopefully the admins remove him from there too.
heck knows how many other torrent sites he has hit.
shame trivolve shame
F@H is done for good reason and you have used it too boost your ego through faking stats maliciously you are the opposite of what F@H stands for.
