Alright. I finally broke down and decided the fastest way to get anime music and such was to use Bit Torrent. After dodging some paranoid naysayers I decided to use it anyway but I'm totally a newbie at this and I have some questions. I've read the FAQ but it doesn't answer my question, perhaps a guide to torrent newbies is hidden somewhere and if not i suggest making one. XD Yay for stupid questions.
I've finally figured out that I don't need to upload any of my own stuff, as all of my own stuff comes from this place and seeding means 'uploading' already downloaded items.
Question 1: I've made the folders specifically for bit torrent files and a seperate for the torrents themselves, for seeding what is needed to be kept in the files, the torrents themselves or the files? I want to know if moving the completed files itself won't harm the seeding.
Question 2: I use the original Bit Torrent, and when a file finishes and says 100% it says 'seeding'. I wonder if it's okay to clear the file from the torrent menu itself, will it do anything wrong, or will it not harm the torrent itself?
I understand that I may sound stupid right now, but it's that whole total newbie thing. For bit torrents itself as well as bakabt. I just want to make sure I get a good enough ratio so I can still be a part of this place. XD Imma dork.
Reply get!
Takeshi:
Remove or stop a torrent in your client, and it'll stop seeding.
Moving your completed or incomplete torrent files (the ones you're downloading) to a different folder will stop leeching and seeding.

Thank you! I kinda wondered it so I been making copypasta of the files to the places I want them to be. <3
Takeshi:
You can always hash check them from the new location, and seed from there: http://wiki.bakabt.me/index.php/For_First_Timers#Official_BitTorrent_6
