qBittorrent has been banned from the private tracker http://thevault.bz/ for the following reason:

qBittorrent (Does not identify its version correctly.)

Can that problem be resolved?

That would likely be seriously ancient versions, ask them to lift the ban at least for new versions.

Reason being... way back in the day had a "feature" that could spoof the client which is 1. no longer available and 2. is quite frowned upon especially on private trackers.

Just tell them that this happened in the early days of qbittorrent. We don't support spoofing anymore. At least these series are clean: 2.9.x, 3.0.x and 3.1.x

Yeah that was like a decade ago. Just message them, send them the link, and let them know that this is not true anymore.
