It's ok, pirating supports the piracy industry.

I can't seed :(
Like really, my router is supplied through my job, and for security reasons it's locked down completely, and apparently it blocks p2p outbound traffic. I get like 10 kbps up tops, across all torrents combined. So i just leech off of public shit and cry because i feel guilty.

>>56018630
>it blocks p2p outbound traffic
>get like 10 kbps up
Sure does block it.

>>56018651
idk man, i should be getting like 250 kbps up, which still isn't much, but it can't go over 10, i've tried different pc's, clients and connecting to people directly.

Until I delete the file. My upload bandwidth is more than good enough to handle seeding a few dozen torrents.

>>56018745
how much is your upload?

>>56018033
Depends on current amount of seeds, file size, demand and so on.

Always at least until 1.0 ratio. After that it really depends.

>>56018033
Popular / trendy shit gets pulled right away because there are tons of seeds already.

I seed niche torrents for as long as I can, at least until 2.0. But my upload is shit and doing so takes forever.

Move to where peoples privacy is respected

For private trackers, 1:1 since large releases usually have a 50% discount.

Public trackers gets nothing.

3k ratio or bust

>>56024358
And that's why my ping is through the roof.

i seed ubtil i need to reclaim the space, so if its something im keeping it gets seeded forever.

my internet connection allows me to seed around 10 torrents at a time, so i need to choose which torrent to keep alive. Dont care about ratio, just the average seedcount and keep them living as long as i can.
In general im stopping seeding every torrent with 30+ seeds after 1d seeding.


how much fucked am i using ip-torrents?

>>56018033

I seed to a 3.0 ratio standard. Stuff I found difficult to obtain or torrents I made my self get seeded until the end of the universe.

>>56018033
Depends on what I am torrenting. If it is acquired legally, then I'll seed for a few hours.

There was one hard to find JAV that had 1 seeder that was only online occasionally that it took me literally over a month to download.

Just get a seedbox in Romania. I pay 3$ for 50 Mbps and this is my connection to NY, which is still slower than most connections in here. It already beats whatever Comcast offers for $44.

Yes, I know we have to take in count how much the average salary is in the US compared to the third world, but come on guys, start making your own micro-ISPs already and bring some competition, this shit can't go on forever. At least 10 million people in the US should have a 1Gbps connection for $50 granted Comcast doesn't fuck said company up who wishes to do this.

imo you should seed until you reach at least 2.0 ratio. and that's the minimum.

>>56020267

>>56018033
I seed double what I download at minimum, and for a few thing I find important I seed till I have a reason not to (~weeks). However I use torrents so rarely as I really only use them for OS downloads and open source research papers.

When my ISP slapped me with a pirating claim, I slapped them back with my seed logs and file tracks, all legal. They then throttled my internet anyway, which I could have sued over, but didn't have the time or money and given how little bandwidth I use I hardly noticed anyway.

If you brag about seeding on a public tracker you are a retard.

>Do you know what would happen if everyone
you could put almost any scenario after that phrase and it wouldn't be good
otherwise i agree

i actively deny uploading anything when torrenting. i dont share during the download and stop as soon as its done not to seed.
additionally i made a script to not connect to certain countries, not for security reasons, but because i hate them.
i also deny any connections to people that have less than 100% of a file downloaded.

i made a few plugins for qbittorrent to do this for me.
additionally upload speed does not matter at all since i block outgoing torrent protocol traffic on my router. only ingoing is allowed.

i know i am a horrible person but thats just who i am.
