 Hi, the man page for the quiet flag says:
 "Do not start Tor with a console log unless explicitly requested to do
 so."

 however this doesn't work...
 23:58 < atagar> hm, tor's --quiet flag doesn't seem to work (running "tor
 --quiet -f /path/to/torrc" with http://pastebin.com/LfAbHG4i still logs to
 the terminal)
 05:45 < Sebastian> atagar: --quiet only works if you specify an
 alternative location for the log
 05:45 < Sebastian> like a file
 05:45 < Sebastian> atagar: file a bug if you care

 I don't care about this too much (found it on accident) but probably
 something we should fix.
