Joined yesterday and now my ratio is at rock bottom...?

[Facesforce]

Alright, I'm a new member here and yes, I've already read the rules and ect and I do plan to seed. Now, I was intrested in the code geass torrents, which I am a fan of, so I began downloading the 1080 release. Browsing through the comments revealed that it would not work on my lapto, so I was forced to cancel theent 1 gb in. Now I've started the 720 release, only to find my ratio reading this: 0.026. Now I have an 8.42 gb torrent running, which I do plan to seed whenever I am at a hotspot, but I'm concerned with the ratio number being so low. I wish to finish my currant torrent, and then seed it accordingly, but will this be enough to raise my ratio above the cut? Also, what is the starting ratio start at, for those whom may know?

Initially, you can download about 20 GB without any need to worry. Just don't forget to seed them back later.

Okay. The FAQs and Rules were very vauge on the subject, if not for others, but mayhaps in my mind alone. I thank you, my dear sir for helping me reach a level of understanding.

The Ratio at start is 0. So you can download ~25GB at the beginning without really worrying, you should think already about getting your ratio back to 0.5 at least to be on the safe side.

Also, 1080p torrents are freeleech. Meaning the gig or so you downloaded from that one won't count against you.

This is actually covered in the FAQ, afaik.
