Thanks for all your help. Issue resolved but I just don't understand the rules. It turned out I was in error. I had downloaded and fell below the necessary ratio. However, I seeded for 80 consecutive hours. I'm new to this torrent thing but if the tracker rules says you must seed 72 hours and you do, why would they have closed the account? After all, it's not my fault nobody else wanted the torrent. Anyhow, I was given some time to try to fix my ratio.
