Start reading through the last five to ten pages of this help forum.  Your exact same problem and your exact same question have been answered in great detail many times.  As you read, pay attention to the vocabulary used so that you can perform searches.

Go back and read the bakaBT wiki carefully, also.  It has basic advice you need to follow.  That advice has been greatly expanded in about 50 or even 100 topics in this forum.


[ EDIT: @Dhruv - click through to his tracker profile.  89.33 GB downloaded vs. 367.48 MB uploaded.  All the power to you for taking pity on the fool, but there's no excuse for a ratio like that. 

@havsa -- Seriously, do some homework before posting again.  Just even a little bit.  Demonstrate you can put even a small effort into getting a clue on your own.  Ah, shit.  you've gone and made me cranky.  Time to get some beauty rest and see if I can come back here feeling civilized and charitable ... ]

1. Open the .torrent file of the torrents you have already downloaded.
2. Select the download location to where you have downloaded the files earlier.
3. Your client will recheck the files and add it to the library.
4. You are ready to seed.

May take 3-4 days in your situation since you need to seed something like 20GB to lift the warning. Rest depends upon your connection speed.

i have readed the wiki and faq, and i have the files in the library now and it sais it's seeding but aint seeding anyway som some reason.

[Dhruv]

Vuze usually shows the upload speed associated with every torrent separately. If you mean that every torrent is showing seeding and there is no upload speed in any of them.. Then just be patient. You have leeched a lot so it will take some time for you to get back up on that ratio.

Remember to seed all your torrents you have downloaded so far from this site.

[havsa]

this is just 2 off the torrents, as u see they have been like that for many hours now.
and now they just say waiting even tho there's nothing to wait for.

''sprer = seeding''
''ventende = Waiting''

I see 21 torrents in your tracker profile. Then why have you only added 2 of them to vuze? Add all of them and then maybe you'll start seeding.

Obviously, they were removed from the client queue.
Just re-queue the torrents and that should take care of it.

Those 2 torrents that he gave the screenshot for aren't seeding. I also use Vuze so i know.
If there are no leechers for a particular torrent Vuze automatically takes it off seeding to save slots(i think).

[ConsiderPhlebas]

To begin with, if you really want something to seed for a long time, set it to "Forced Seeding".

[Dhruv]

But force start isn't much of a help if there are no leechers. If a torrent is a bonus torrent without any leechers... force start is useful for seeding it and accumulating bonus points.

[megido-rev.M]

It depends on how the client implements the feature.
As far as torrents in the queue go, generally idle ones seem to get treated differently from seeding ones.

[ConsiderPhlebas]

And, at least in Azureus/Vuze, concerning how you configure things related to number of torrents allowed to run simultaneously, etc., if you want to maximize UL and avoid going "Forced", you have to be pretty careful in configuring how you handle torrents with a certain number of seeds/leeches, etc.

If your aim is to improve quota, or just serve as many torrents as possible, I recommend setting them to forced and set the number of allowed connections totally and per torrent to something reasonable to your network connection quality and speed. Otherwise the client will shut many of them down when it have started to serve a certain number, regardless of scrape results.

Many props to the community for the attempt, but this seems to be an awful lot of effort for a low probability of return.  I know it seems harsh, but maybe we just need to stop responding to people like this.  FFS, why make an account on a public tracker and then abuse it, when you could just do the same without an account, and never feel any repercussions?

I know, many of us try to help, and not *all* are so bad, but damn...
