I’ll admit, when I first started torrent I was not really familiar with how it worked and how important seeding was. I would just use magnet links without configuration to save the torrent and seed after completion. Well… I have finally, got myself back to 1.00 after a couple months and working to try to always seed double what I get for each torrent.
Often times I was one of the few random seeders available for some of these torrents. Friendly reminder to give back because you never know when you’re one of the rare cases that can complete someones long lost file download!
Hoping to hit 400 TB uploaded this year :3
pretty proud of my ratio of 6 yrs
I mean have you really only downloaded less than 500gb or is almost everything free seed and doesn’t count on your download stats.
Eitherway nice seeding, good job
yeah, I mostly download free seeds and I don’t think that adds to the download count, I’ve definitely downloaded more than 500gb
Normal ratio on private sites with free seed torrents because your download is heavily distorted
Mines alright seed just long enough to stay afloat
Wow I didnt realize I was this close…
Those are rookie numbers. You need to pump those numbers up.
It’s been at the same ratio for the last 3 years… Never managed to get more…
Da good stuff
We thank you for your service
Yay! Good job. Keep going!
My seed ratio is 1.2. I’d seed more, but I download a lot of different things and my home server is limited on space at the moment.
pretty proud of my TL ratio
Good work! Love seeing a fellow seeder on here!
Way to go, keep it up!
Took me a while to find the stats tab, I didnt know it was available lol
I’m such a leech :( stupid ISP data cap. I’ll make it up someday
You can always get a seedbox (if you’re able and willing to spend a few bucks a month on a seedbox)
I’m doing my part.png
I always lose my seeds because I like to rename my files. Any workarounds?
Hardlinking files to their new destination and your normalized naming schema. Using symlinks would be madness.
Change the file name in the torrent client :)
This is what I do as well
I change the directory in my client. This moves the download to my preferred location for plex, etc. And it seeds from there instead
Keep the files in a dedicated torrents folder then make symlinks to where you actually want them?
I miss eMule though. I always loved to share some rare exotic stuff and see someone decided they want that and I provided it. It’s not just about bandwidth, though I had pretty big numbers there. Torrents just don’t hit the same.
Ed2k/kad network still have good health with new and old stuff
Problem is how most networks are configured today that prevent HighID on eMule, severely crippling it. It used to be annoying to have LowID in the past and reconnecting usually fixes it, now it’s a given and you can’t get out of it. It’s so hard to get uploads going and it makes me sad :(
The problem with HighID/LowID on eMule is the same on bittorrent or any other p2p, you need someone with port forwarding to upload/download content. In my case I am out of cg-nat and sharing 24/7.
It’s not. Bittorrent uses newer methods to connect that work with current network configurations where eMule devs stubbornly refused because it would create some overhead like we’re still stuck on 56k or ISDN era and never improved it.
Apparently there is a way using VPN with P2P, but I’m not gonna pay for it just to run eMule…
Nope, it is the same. Bittorrent have a lot more users than eMule and then you have more possibilities to find a peer with ports forwarded. 2 peers Without port forwarded can not share content.
