I’ll admit, when I first started torrent I was not really familiar with how it worked and how important seeding was. I would just use magnet links without configuration to save the torrent and seed after completion. Well… I have finally, got myself back to 1.00 after a couple months and working to try to always seed double what I get for each torrent.
Often times I was one of the few random seeders available for some of these torrents. Friendly reminder to give back because you never know when you’re one of the rare cases that can complete someones long lost file download!
Private trackers enforce ratios, and good private trackers reward long-term seeding, which is part of why I like private trackers.
I’m very proud of my CG account that turns seventeen next month.
EDIT: No I don’t have invites, before anyone asks.
Yeah, this is also a problem though. I’d love to be on a private tracker as I was in the past, but once you’re out it’s just too much of a hassle to get back in.
