Yeah, most of the time it's common sense so most people just skip it. And I don't think anyone ever asked you to memorize anything, just review if you forgot.

Not really, it was only that one point out of four that he made. There are also people who waltz in here scared of being "banned." Like, all the time...

Just so you know, that doesn't really improve your ratio all that much. Having adopted torrent A doesn't mean torrent A will be leeched more. Reasons for adopting as posted on the Wiki.
--- Quote from: ramezrh on July 08, 2010, 10:00:55 AM ---I see is there perhaps a customary time when they open or is it just blind luck lol ?
--- End quote ---
I think it's every three months, give or take a week or so, from the pattern. It is largely blind luck, though, to be able to donate in the small timeframe that donations are open. I was only ever able to donate back when donations were always open.
--- Quote from: ramezrh on July 08, 2010, 10:00:55 AM ---Is it really so bad to seek alternate contributions like this? Unless of course you meant that by downloading so much I didn't understand what I was doing. In which case see above for my opinion on snide remarks. If I did not understand that I was taking more than I was giving I would not be bothering with the post.

FYI most "ratio fixing" info can be found in the Wiki, though perhaps a bit hidden. That includes seedboxes, reseeding downloaded stuff, donating, etc.

Not that I mind but I was just thinking blimey it's good I am not an arachnophobe or I would be scarred for life.

Nasty... I was eating while reading, and when I read that I felt a little less appetized... Thankfully I don't completely lose my appetite easily.

you may have to invest in a seed-box. before doing so make sure the host country is pirate friendly. ;)
otherwise i suggest downloading free-leeech (F) contraband and seed the fuck out of em. ::)
good luck, dude.

Seedbox -> PFCorner. Problem solved.
jaybug:
The seeded torrents that are boosting up my ratio are Dennou Coil, Valkyria Chronicles, K-On!, Toradora, and a bit to Queen's Blade. Also I try not to seed everything, but pause some torrents, in order to have more ability to have higher upload rates. I prefer to do that as the smallest of those torrents is 7.63 GB.
I am downloading one torrent, which is not terribly popular at present, and so I expect it will take up to two weeks to down load. Now if others did as I am, this could go a lot quicker. And they would boost their ratio quicker.

BBT is a public tracker, so they must do
--- End quote ---
public torrents are considered to be from sites that don't track your uploads and downloads
--- Quote from: http://mybox.pfcorner.eu/ ---Public torrents: not allowed on our servers! Including torrents without key or with weird tracking behaviour.

Can use BBT without it tracking your uploads and downloads, sure it has some characteristics of a private tracker....but it's public.
