I’m very skeptical about this: 
      * Transmission is very fast and has a low memory footprint, which
        is something I wouldn’t expect from a Python client. 
      * The transmission UI fits well into GNOME, and on first sight the
        deluge one doesn’t look as light and polished.

I’m using transmission regularly and I have yet to see this happen. It
is actively developed and I wonder whether those bugs are still here in
the latest version.
OTOH I saw such bans happen with e.g. rtorrent.
