Is this legit and possible ? HELP
« on: November 09, 2013, 12:06:02 PM »
Hi ! Im new at bakaBT and yes I have read the Wiki and still a lil bit confuse, so Im here to ask if is it legit if after I downloaded a file and seed it, is it legit to download that file once again on a different computer/device but same internet connection ? The deal is, I want to have good ratio even if I just start BakaBT and me and my cousins uses only 1 wifi/internet connection so is it possible to make my ratio up if I seed and he download/leech it without logging in my account ? (I read that it is NOT recommend to have 2 accounts) Tho we are using the same internet connection but different device and all of our flashdrives are broken so yea I dont want to waste my money just to buy an 8 gig Flashdrive  :-| So is letting him download it manually legit ? Im just like, advertising files ;D , so is it good ?  :yes:

THANKS IN ADVANCE ! :)
Sorry for my English.

You can't seed the same torrent in two locations at the same time.
You are welcome to seed something else, elsewhere though.

However I can't see the point in this case if you are using the same internet connection, it won't be any faster.
I advise you not to login to your account using your cousins PC.

Then by doing that it's possible to make my ratio up ? We don't have much problem at internet speed tho.
Anyways thanks for the fast reply !  :)

Imagine your internet connection is a pie, and you divide it in two to share... You'll see you don't gain any more pie, so you won't actually get a faster result in improving your ratio.

Just seed a good selection of torrents and it will improve with time.

In addition to the "pie" quote, you can actually imagine a slight decrease in speeds as having two clients open will create a small amount of overhead, thus decreasing your maximum potential speed. Having two clients going at the same time creates twice as much.

I learnt this the hard way when I used to run utorrent for one hundred torrents, and bittorrent for the other hundred or so. It's not worth it.
I'll do the flipping on webcam so people know it's legit.
