Hello,
Using the laptop that way will impact your battery life slowly over time. I did the same to mine and after 1 year, battery life was cut in half. After 2-3 years the battery was kaput.
In your case, I recommend removing the battery if you're not using it and just keeping the laptop plugged in over night for torrenting purposes.
Only put it back in if you plan ti actually use it, you're lucky you purchased a model with a removable battery.
Cheers
