I'm doing my part!
I'm doing my part!
Was recovering an old virtual machine onto a new box and was shocked to see 9,999, I presume thats an upper limit in the UI. Dune (2021) for those curious
Now wheres my crossbones flag?
Sir, are you the Pirate Bay? I feel like you're single-handedly keeping a tracker alive.
I think you're doing my part too
What a guy!
Makes you cry...
Und I did.
this must be something I'm too usenet to understand
kidding of course, well done and thank you for your service
Actually if you would be so kind, what is the rundown of Usenet? I've searched a bit but been busy to really sit down on it, should I consider it being just a side thing (for now)?
Usenet is here to stay, it is similar as if you pay for vip in order to be able to leech without seeding. This makes automated pirating legal in some countries (like mine) since only doing direct downloads from your usenet provider. The usenet provider have servers which exchange bits of data with IDs similar like we do with torrenting. As a user, you now go to a indexer, who gives you a map, with which bits of data you can construct your file. So you then download each bit directly and put everything together and are rewarded with a normal file. Until now I have found every release which is also in predb using the private indexers I have.
Fight club rules. Yeah, I'm old school
Its pay to pirate.
Don't bother. Just sign up for a Debrid service. It's torrents but direct downloads, which means no needing to worry about seeding. It replaces your torrent client entirely.
There's honor amoung thieves and you have most of it.
Nice!
My highest isn't nearly that large - Dark souls remastered at 1143 ratio.
Kudos ☠️☠️☠️
I can't get over 0.00 most of the time because no one's leeching 😭
Idk how I'm even supposed to get a good ratio
Download a popular movie and keep your computer on for a while 🤷♂️
Although, seeding stuff that isn't popular is also important. I don't know what you're seeding but if no one is leeching maybe there aren't a whole lot of other people seeding either. When someone does leech, they might be very happy that you're there keeping that one torrent alive.
I have a Raspberry Pi with the *arr stuff and Jellyfin that's seeding 24/7. I tried looking for popular stuff on the private trackers I'm on but they always have so many seeders in comparison to leechers that I don't know if it would actually help or worsen my ratio.
You don't even have to download the whole thing. Anything downloaded will be shared with other downloaders.
Same, but it's because I am not connectable (CG-NAT).
But when they do leach you'll be thanked.
I have one tracker I am twice as long active with versus another one and I almst catched up the uploaded data with less torrents active. Sometimes I wonder if I am just not the primary target for that tracker or I just don't like the popular stuff.
I would imagine, and namely the reason I raise the sails again, content thats being migrated across different subscriptions will become a real hot token item
I build ratio on private trackers by getting as much freeleech stuff as I can, even though I might not be into it. Timing is key also, I’ll snatch anything I think will blow up. If you get in early you can get lots of upload. This worked great to get my initial ratio built up on what.cd and redacted.
A private tracker I use actually bases their ratios off the time you seed something for rather than the amount you seed. I use a seedbox, which means people are able to leech from me pretty much 100% of the time. Most of the stuff I've seeded so far is freeleech. Those three factors combined have given me about +10.0 on my ratio over the course of maybe a week. (I just recently joined it.)
That's pretty interesting. I wish more trackers did it like this.
I don't sweat it. My connection is crap anyway. I'd rather somebody have a drive full of rare treasure that barely gets asked for than be one of a thousand seeding the latest Marvel rubbish.
It's over nine thousand!
Must be from a public tracker
Yessir, and frankly I'm caring a lot more for the torrents that are barely breathing on public trackers, its made me a little sad seeing how inaccessible some content can tend to get, but to be fair I haven't sailed the deep end with private trackers or anything yet
When I was able to seed relentlessly, I aimed for 3.0. Typically, popular things got into the tens or twenties, while rare stuff would get lucky to cross the 1.0 threshold.
Thieves and beggars, never shall we die and all that.
When I downloaded The Last Of Us it would shoot to 4-5 and get stuck there. Meanwhile, I downloaded Madagascar on a random Monday and a week or so later that thing is at 36.0.
It's totally random.
What's your upload amount? Ratio isn't vs the total size of the torrent, so this can happen if you remove a readd a torrent to the client for a file that's already in the hard drive. Say you download 1kb of a 1gb file, but then upload 10mb you can get some insane ratios.
Most unfortunately overall statistics aren't exported, the VM had been sitting active on a PC for a while before I turned it off for a few months and wiped it recently
I can say those top ratios were movies I had first acquired, and never had set a seed limit so I'm certain I've been seeding the entire file
I2P would love to have you
you store all that in the Homework folder?
Ahem thats a Proxmox powered homework folder to you
It's the bare minimum if you care about your homework and Linux ISOs
Insane, my highest is around 100 ratio.
That's almost certainly a partial cross seed, but if it isn't, that's one hell of an accomplishment.
Yo ho ho and two bottles of rum for you 🏴☠️
Thank you ❤️
please excuse my stupidity but what does this mean? i know it's something with torrenting but i don't know what exactly
They have really high seeding ratios.
0.5 would mean they uploaded half the filesize. 1 means whole filesize. 2 means twice. You get the idea.
Actually relative to what they downloaded. You import a file you already downloaded but it's missing 10kb, you download 10kb, you upload 100kb, your ratio is 10, not impressive.
okay damn that's impressive
Thanks Captain 🫡
Well done.
I generally drop torrents out of seeding if there are >100 seeders so I have nothing as high as your top 10
Maybe like twenty years ago my Demonoid account had a glitch where it showed my download as a few bytes, regardless of how much I was actually downloading. The number definitely should have been way way higher. Every time I would log on the digits for my ratio would run off the side of the screen.
would you like to know more?
Hahaha such funny memes on the pirate group funny memes post the picture I want to see the picture posted please I want to see it again look at it I want to hear the phrase and see the picture together at once
edit: please someone has the gif from the movie where this phrase comes from I need to see it because I love memes and I need to see it again I haven't seen it in a long time and it needs to be posted right now I need to look at it I love it I think it's really good and funny every time I see it it gets funnier please help me out just post it right here post it again and again and again
