So long as they're installed properly, they shouldn't leak at all.
Typically the source of most remote leaks is within the QD (quick-disconnect) or the slide-check (if it has one). Both easily fixed by replacing an o-ring.
I ran remote for years when I first started out. Never had any real problems aside from slide-check leaks. Keep the slide check well oiled, and have a couple spare tank o-rings handy in case they need replacing... and should be all set.

Shorty BP is right the don't leak when they are properly set up. The person that told you they leak probebly turned on the co2 before he fully connected it to his gun.
