Nope, seeders are people whom downloaded or are downloading the file, and keep it in there list to be downloaded from they're machine by others. If they delete, move, replace a torrent, you lose a seeder. can't influence it.

torrents are p2p, which means peer-to-peer

peers are the seeders (content providers) and the leechers (content downloaders), whom share content.

a peer can be a seeder, or a leecher.
