background; i had all my torrents seeding forever and i never set a limit mostly because when i set up qbittorrent i was new and never really went into options.

i want to be able to control and limit the bandwidth i use but is 50kb/s during the day/10kb/s at night unreasonable? i dont want to be rude or make it hard for people to get things but i also just don't want thinks to balloon out of control (before i just keep everything in seeding perpetually just because i never bothered to look).

am i being unreasonable with limits? i obviously dont want to download and just stop; i always want to at least share back to at least 1.

these are mostly public trackers btw

thanks <3

I do 4x or 1 month whichever comes first. Unless I notice it's some really hard to come by thing and I may leave it up for a year or more.

    i usually leave mine going until i have to unplug my drive (my media pc is a busted old laptop that cant be unplugged, if im travelling i take my drive with me). that means theyre usually going for a month or two
