Hey all, I know a lot of people are migrating to private torrent sites, and OK, that’s a choice. However there are still a lot of people on the public torrents who are just leeching and not seeding.
I have several popular (old/classic) movies in my feed that I have uploaded (literally) 1000x the original and many more in the several hundred times. That’s fine, I choose to support the community, but it’s pretty depressing when I look at the seeders count and those movies have 2 or 3 other seeders.
This only works if you share. Please don’t cut off as soon as you’ve downloaded.
And on a personal note, if anyone has audio or video files for “Machine Gun Fellatio” also listed as MGF could you please start seeding in particular
“MGF Pack 1”
“MGF+Pack+2”
“MGF+Pack+3”
If I can get the download completed I’ll keep them up permanently, but unfortunately as they are obscure/rare I’m getting nowhere.
Rules don’t permit me showing the torrent link of course. DM if that would help
After I’ve gotten 1gbit fiber I tend to try and hit ratio 1000:1 on anything I seed. Back when I was on xDSL connections before fiber, I tried to hit 1.1:1 because my thinking was if everyone tried to do that, there’d literally never be data loss.
I recently tried getting “The Sinking of the Laconia” miniseries and it took 8 days to get it. But I’m not member of a private tracker where it was available anyway, so sometimes public is better as long as one is patient.
I’ve been seeding for over 3 years. I only have a torrent that got up to 980 of ratio, if I remember correctly
It doesn't take too long with smaller <1GB releases.
EDIT: I am pretty happy about the one at 755 ratio. 78GB * 755 = 57TB. That alone is 35% of everything I’ve uploaded since I installed qBittorrent in February.
