Seeding problem
« on: September 18, 2010, 02:02:21 AM »
So Ive download a few torrents from Bakabt so far and have been able to seed one or two perfectly fine but i seem to have trouble with a couple different torrents from this site.
Ive read the bakabtwiki and Ive looked at the trouble shooting but two of my torrents wont seed. I would like to be able to seed all my torrent not just the ones that work.
I read that they might just be slow but there not seeding at all. Is this normal or is there something i should do?

Thanks, and sorry if this has already been written somewhere, i looked for a few before posting.

you cant seed if no one leechers want it.
Looking at the torrents you pointed to, there are very few leechers meaning very few are gonna be after you.
and In that pic 3 of the 4 torrents you pointed out have zero leeches connected to you... the only one you have with connected leechers you are seeding.

It may seem like common knowledge, but if you want to get a steady seed rate, you need a steady supply of leechers. so find torrents (1080p torrents work well) that have alot of them, without an overload of seeders.

Taking into account that you cannot seed overseeded torrents with no leechers, it's quite natural.

That said, I'm surprised you claim to be able to seed the second torrent of the two that you claim to be able to seed...

BTW your background looks interesting. Care to post it? Or link to it? :P

haha, that was actually suggested some time ago in the form of an additional checkbox below "Don't use smileys" like "I'm a newcomer and I swear I searched the forums for similar threads"  :)

or here is an alternative

I could swear his passkey wasn't showing, but maybe I was just tired ???

Edit: ... On second thought, I think you're right, after seeing a screenshot someone else posted...

haha, i didnt even think about that when he posted that pic. If it was showing, which I dunno cuz I wasnt looking for it, I hope he changes it now.
I am assuming it was visible since Newy removed it.
Always wondered why someone would wanna steal a passkey anyway since you dont even need one to DL... unless its hentai.

I'm having a similar issue.  This place has SO many seeds it's ridiculous.  There is usually like 24 seeds 2 leechs and you can't seed much at all.  At nyaa there is usually like 4 seeds and 50 leeches

You obviously have not been a member of a private tracker if you think it is difficult to seed here, but that has been discussed to death, so let's not go there, por favor?

Leaving this open for the time being in case the OP eventually posts back.
