Some Questions.
« on: May 10, 2013, 05:15:50 AM »
So I seeded back to 10%  :-\
Approx: 25gb down & 2.5gb up.
Double this would be 5%-50gb

I have 25gb more ready to download,but I have to wait for the evaluation in 2 days.
No way to have it early or is this an automatic site function?

I might limit my download speeds.
One thing I notice is that private torrents seed a lot more when actually downloading.
Once I'm done,it stop seeding as much.

250kbs down-400kbs up.
This should in theory keep my seeding ratio growing as I download.

The R in the right corner is the ratio correct?
It seems a bit odd to me.
so 0.999 is 99.9% ratio.
Then once it's 1.000 that 100%

It would be easier for an option to have only 2 number instead of 3.
So 0.45 not 0.459,just something I thought of.
Most of the time the extra number is not needed.

Evaluation is automatic.

Keep seeding. IIRC, warning removal threshold is about 0.12 or 0.15.

So if I go back below?
I am at 0.103 atm

Will I go back on evaluation on 0.12-0.15 or do I have to go back to 0.001 to be evaluated again?

No, just keep seeding. IIRC, evaluation is performed automatically once a week.

There is no set number, it varies depending on several factors.
Keeping above 0.5 ratio however, you will never be warned.

I might direct your attention to this post if you need help understanding ratio, but you seem okay for the time being.

Going to download around 75gbs,which would make my total a little below 100gb.
I only have 3.3gbs uploaded.
So I must get to at least 10gb upload to continue to be able to download.

Still 1-2 days left on evaluation,will seed until then.
Hope to have 5gb+ uploaded by then.

You can download freeleech torrents freely because they do not worsen your ratio.
All 1080p torrents are freeleech. However, you have to wait until you are unwarned.

1080p seems like a waste of space imo.
480p looks fine,720p is a plus.

But you can download it without it affecting your ratio and then seed it for higher ratio...

Yeah,but I still need to wait until I am off evaluation/warning.
---
I am at around 20% seeding.
It seems to be letting me seed more these last couple of hours.

Tomorrow I should be able to download again and keep my ratio below red :)
---
Okay are 1080p torrent faster at seeding?
What I mean is, is overs-seeding going to be the same as in any torrent.


No double/triple posting... -Staff

Ooh boy. You just triple-posted. Someone is gonna yell at you for that, especially when two of them were not asking or clarifying any questions.

You can get your answer to the last question by using some common sense and some intuition. If you can download something without it affecting your ratio, would you be more compelled to download it? And do you think other people would think the same way?

What was meant, was that the 'freeleech' torrents are more likely to attract leeches in the future for you to upload/seed to.

Also, other freeleech if you don't want 1080p include the likes of anything under 100MB, all music videos, and art books:

Unless you have limited capacity on your hard drive(s) or a monthly bandwidth cap why not just get the 1080p freeleech stuff? Sure, they're huge but they help a whole lot in the seeding department.

Want a better ratio? Download the freeleech stuff. There's always a trade-off.

Sort of am limited in space  :laugh:
I have a 750gb hard drive.(Actually 680gb)
100gb free.

I have a 250gb external drive that has mostly my game installers.
Just in case I need to re-install some games again.
The rest is the rest of the homes to use.

1080P seems to be very good,but for a 15.6 inch screen I don't see the point.
720P looks clear enough for me.
Maybe If I used HDMI,I would use 1080P.

I might replace my hard drive in the coming months.
How much for a 2tb hard drive roughly?Have not checked prices.
If it's not too expensive I will consider one.
