@sidneejmas said: anyhoo I wont be uploading fresh content anymore Ill just keep it to myself....no thanks for it anyway only strife.... Nooo what will be of this place without your money AND your content? It's gonna shutdown for sure

@Chaser18 it's because this site is out to make money they reduce ur upload uptake so ur ratio drops and you donate....have you donated in past I have...

@bstar97 said: Hello I know this is kind of a stupid question but like the title says, would downloading my own uploaded torrents affect my ratios/download limits etc. etc. I'm trying to upload my porn here as backup and to free up storage (to download more porn of course haha) and I'm wondering if I could do that. There's always old porn you wanna come back to and this site is very great as archive. Thanks for answering. Suppose you upload 300 GB from your collection. You get at least 300 GB of upload traffic for that. When you come back and want to download your own torrents again, it will use 300 GB of download traffic, taking you to exactly where your ratio was before you uploaded it. The Problems: 1 - If you use the site to download other people's torrents, there's no guarantee that you will have enough buffer to download your own torrents. 2 - If you ever need to re-download your torrents a second time, it will require an additional 300 GB that you might be unable to afford. 3 - There is no guarantee whatsoever that the torrents you make will stay online, they can be removed for copyright or die because everyone who downloaded it stopped seeding, leaving you with no way of recovering the files. Torrent is not a good backup medium, because once you don't have the files anymore, you're completely out of control.

@ianfontinell ty im not worried i have good ratio hehe , hanks for this info on freeleech, luckily I asked the question wish you a nice week

@ianfontinell i see thanks for the info

No ... you risk yourself downloading huge torrent that will trigger your ratio ''' Once you downloaded a file, whatever you downloaded may impact your ratio ... So your best option is to finish and seed or to stop @ your point ...

sorry to hear you ran into issues that happen to us recently ... there is nothing you can do once it didn't registered from your account ... Main causes : Tracker Issues/Error Failure/Unregistered Torrent Seeding while interrupted from your client, before it reaches the right time ... ( give @least 1hr to update)

@Diegodiegui You can also partake in this program: https://community.gaytor.rent/topic/68141/at-risk-torrent-thread-official?page=1 You find some torrents that need to be revived, post them in that thread, and if they qualify, they will be made Freeleech. This lets you be an early person on the Freeleech, giving you the most benefit.

Just because I was working on the tracker doesn’t magically make upload/download credits disappear. For a while, it simply wasn’t counting anything at all. Nobody’s really going to be able to trace that precisely anyway, since we get around 4.5 million announces per hour. They’re not logged just because of the sheer volume alone.

@frostycab That's what I have been doing in the past, and if you're starting out it could be a good way to build up gigabytes but 10 gigs aren't that much. Assuming you don't have issues with port forwarding (and you know this if you download say a torrent from the pirate bay or other open tracker and look for a I in the peer's flags), just that this tracker incentivizes seeding, and so it's not unusual to download gigabytes but upload kilobytes. It's why I said you would be better off looking at freeleech torrents, and sort them by leechers. Right now the 240G Sketchy Sex collection is freeleech and it seems to have lots of leechers. It's got some good models in it if you love creampies. But downloading a bunch of active freeleech torrents and seeding them is the best way to get started. Doesn't matter if you have to end up downloading stuff you don't particularly care about (like solos and stuff) but the whole point is to get your ratios up and grabbing freelech with lots of leechers is the best way to go about this.

@Lancej Unless the file on your hard drive is a perfect match for the file already being seeded, it won't help anyway, as the torrent won't 'recognize' your file as legitimate for the swarm.

@ianfontinell-0 Thank you!!!

Proton VPN with port forwarding*

@frostycab Are you saying I should just seed to 1 instead of 1.25? And after it's reached the appropriate ratio I shouldn't seed if there are no leechers? My ratio is insane because I've been uploading these collection torrents for the last year and frankly I will never exceed it, so I am happy to let others seed honestly. My SB torrent client is ruTorrent. Do you know how to set up that "AND" condition? But forgive me I'm still confused about what that is supposed to do.

@frostycab OK thanks.

@ianfontinell-0 said in Ratio falling even though I mostly do FreeLeech only: @cowboyjim99x you should definitely go to your Details & Stats page, scroll the page down and check the completed torrents list. Check if you recognize all torrents in that list, and if you are sure you have downloaded them yourself. ================= Great suggestion. If there are downloads being made on your account that you did not do, someone else must be on your user ID.

@ianfontinell-0 This is actually very useful. If the maximum is indeed 10, then there's no point in trying to get 200 or even 20.
