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
Unfortunately with public trackers you're mostly helping leechers and debrid users who don't contribute back anything at all
And lets be honest, a lot of us were once in the boat of at least not being able to seed back. With the content I seed I see it more as a preservation service...
Family and friends requesting even couple years old shows that just arent available in this region or what be it like come on, its the digital age, I can message someone halfway around the world but I can't watch some movie because someone wants the most nickel and dime. /rant
I don't expect any of them to know what bittorrent is, if it brings them joy when there may be no other option, that is what this is for afterall
all you have to do is freeleech some stuff with a new account
To reach 10000 seed ratio? Not quite
yes quite. this happens to me every time I join a new tracker.
The screenshot is showing the ratio on a single torrent, not a tracker. The only time you'll see that is usually if you are the person that submitted the torrent.
