Transmission should not announce torrents paused by user.

Manually paused means (for me) to be inactive.

@gthreepw00d You mean a notification?

No. It was torrent which was paused (manually, for a long time), i accidentally checked its info and it showed that some peers were found. Very strange.
Cant reproduce reliably.

Clients get the number of peers from scraping, which is different from announcing.

Anyway, scraping is also unnecessary for paused torrents.

Well, that's your opnion. Others may want to see the number of peers for paused torrents.

Why don't you want paused torrents to scrape anyway?

Can be chosen
