Share Ratio

[supamanjon]

yes i've read rules and wiki and I know that you need ratio i'm guessing 50% at least to download. Problem is I haven't used this since boxtorrents like 6 years ago before they moved to this bakabt. My ratio is .005 which is 4gb to 80gb downloaded. I don't believe boxtorrents ever cared about ratio or if they did how did i download 80 gb without any warnings?

Anyways what's the solution to this problem? I feel it's a bit unfair as i use this other torrent place...and my ratio is like 1.5 there 50 download 80 uploaded "Because i knew about the ratio" .

We did, but our warning system was broken. Now it works. Hooray.

Stop being a retard and seed?

I'm trying to understand the problem here.

You came back to a website 6 years later and complain about the fact that you didn't know you needed to get a good ratio? :S Its been 6 years, a lot of stuff can change in that time anyway. Or did you expect the website to sit around and wait for you to come back?

Just seed. You already said you know how to do it from other sites. Implement that here.

My brains. You hurt them.

Doesn't a account get pruned after like 6months of inactivity?

Ok i guess I'm a retard , please explain to me how to seed. Seeding requires that you either downloaded the files and leave it on or you've had the files from before and reseed them am i correct? Again I've been gone for a while so obviously i don't have those files so how do you expect me to seed?

It's nice to know the moderators are so friendly. Let me press the magic button that works through that system and instantly get my ratio back so i can download more files to seed.

Anyways back to the REAL PROBLEM IS how do i seed things without downloading? And I don't have ANY of the files from 5 years ago so that's not an option. I mean i guess i could have a friend download files then burn it on a cd for me THEN give to me THEN i can reseed something.

Did you know it's stated in the wiki how to get ratio back up? You shouldn't have asked that question if you actually read the Wiki as you stated at the beginning.
Because I'm so nice I can link it to you: http://wiki.bakabt.me/index.php/For_First_Timers#Fixing_Your_Ratio

[supamanjon]

Yes i already read that

Download something that's recent and in demand, and seed it here to fix your ratio.
Can't upload a torrent if your ratio is .005. Only power users can upload torrents right?

The only other option is to pay money. So  is there any solutions?

It's not that I'm complaining that it was buggy. It's that I'm in a deadlock where i can't download files to up my ratio OR upload new torrents to seed. And yea logging to see my ratio is .005% not 5% really sucks. If I had an OPTION to seed i would.

[Penthero]

Why is that so hard? Just go download something like Kurokami and seed it, with a 293 / 409 seed/leech ratio you can upload at quite a decent speed.

[supamanjon]

So how exactly do i link that? If i download files on another torrent site. How do i get it to seed and count here? Because i don't think leaving the torrent on will just up my ratio here. Unless you meant download on bakabt which i can't because my ratio is 2 low.

I suggest you actually go and read the Wiki, because you obviously haven't, as the wiki has so far answered all your questions without trouble.
