Misbehaving torrent tracker in list #353

Description

@joepie91

Hi, the tracker https://torrent.tracker.durukanbal.com:443/announce regularly returns implausible peer counts; for example, I am observing it claiming to have 14 seeds and 1 peer for a torrent that's deader-than-dead (even the metadata doesn't download!), and no other tracker on the list has any seeds for it at all. It seems that I'm not the only one to encounter this either, and that linked post was a while ago already.

So it seems like the tracker is just not working correctly; whether that's intentional or accidental I have no idea, and I don't think it matters, but it probably shouldn't be in the list. I figured I'd file a bug here rather than just e-mailing, because perhaps it's possible to add a check to the software for detecting implausible responses from trackers, to automatically prevent such issues in the future?
