I'm a little confused. Is that not a good thing? I'm still trying to learn.
Without port forwarding you can only connect to those who do have it set up. Doing so yourself allows you to be a better citizen of the internet and share with people who don't know what it is.
(Caveat: I am one of those people who don't understand it and am just parroting what was explained to me when I asked about this)
Probably the port forwarding was automatically set up by UPnP, which is also something that can't be done on a vpn without port forwarding. If you have a tracker, the torrent might also work, but then the tracker itself would have to be port forwarded.
