Don't ever move a torrent from done to download and start over write it!

Hi,

Yes that can easily happen if you temporarily loose a drive where you have your torrents. I "lost" 3TB of torrents and qB was kind enough to move then to incomplete and start overwrite them. That was perfectly fine files, downloaded and checked and actively seeding, now about 10% of them are affected some of them maybe permanently since i was about the only seed. Yes,  I put this as constructive critic in an other part of the forum but sorry the behavior is idiotic (read brain dead), since I do know how to program (mainly C) I will try to look in to it.  I tried to be nice before in my writing never email when your angry kind of rule but this is just too much about 300GB of torrents been f..ed with. Guess I will make some sort of cron job making files in the done dir readonly owned by root and immutable.

Cheers

About 1.5TB of date is absolutely f....d up, it even still continue to again say a files missing and then overwrite again, maybe I should just cut my losses redownload 1.5TB again, what a disaster due to a major design flaw.
