I keep seeding man, but nobody is downloading...I'm seeding everything I've downloaded 24/7/365, but my ratio is still only 0.4...y'all MF'ers aren't downloading the right stuff.

Did you configure port forwarding properly? Otherwise it might be that leechers can't contact you.

I mean, I've seeded just short of 7tb over the past 6months, so I'm sending a decent amount of data out, it's just less than I'm downloading.

You probably aren't connectable from the outside. You need to port forward to support the network.

I do port forward, I can also seed at maximum upload bandwidth (1gbit)

It’s funny to me, but one of my highest ratios was on a torrent that never even finished. It was active for many months stuck at 98%, and the seed never came back. So many people started that one, downloaded what was available, then scrapped the whole thing and found another option..

I’d uploaded ~500gb of a 6gb torrent.

That’s the joy/pain of wanting stuff nobody has available..
