The client whitelist allows us to filter out disruptive and dishonest clients that may hurt the performance of either the tracker or individual peers. If your preferred client/version is not in this list you can appeal here.

Modification of clients to bypass our client requirements (spoofing) is explicitly forbidden.
People caught doing this will be instantly and permanently banned. This is your only warning.
The use of clients or proxies which have been modified to report incorrect stats to the tracker (cheating) is not allowed, and will result in a permanent ban.
Additionally, your information will be passed on to representatives of other trackers, where you are liable to be banned as well.
The testing of unstable clients by developers is not allowed.
