Stop seed at ratio removes downloaded data?!

I set deluge 1.1.9 to "stop seed at ratio" (and I'm not 100% whether or not I selected "remove at ratio") - It deleted all of the downloaded data! If that was supposed to happen, it should have been made clear, as I have a transfer limit imposed by my ISP. I thought that the "remove at ratio" option would just remove the torrent from deluge's window only.
I don't mean to gripe about free software, but AGGHHHHH!!
And thanks for the hard work that went into an otherwise great program =)

I'm pretty sure it isn't supposed to delete the data when it is selected to remove the torrent at ratio.
I just tested it out with a torrent and it removed the torrent but kept the data. Are you sure it is deleted and not just saved in a different folder? And just to be sure you didn't have move on completed enabled as well?

Thanks for the response. It turns out, for some weird reason, my system (at least through KDE 3.5.10) wasn't showing the download folder. I did several searches, and nothing turned up. So I finally did a search from / and let it run, low & behold, it showed up right where I had downloaded it to. I don't know what caused the quirk, but it was definitely not deluge's fault.
Maybe I confused it with a different file, I don't know... Sorry for the false alarm.
