But very, very simply: Seeding means either you have uploaded your own torrent and are sharing it with other people or: You have completed a download of someone else's torrent and you have left your torrent client open to help others by sharing. Leeching means that you are downloading someone else's torrent and haven't completed it yet. Once you have got the complete file, you become a seeder if you let other people have a share of your completed download.

That is exactly what I think happened, because some downloads were finished this night/morning. The only way to compensate is to seed long times. Of course the selection of torrents influences a lot the ability to upload data after a download finished, too.

many clients allow manual announce. normally it's not needed to do it manually, unless you want to test if the function works properly.

thats right ares doesnt work for reseed so im gonna download utorrent thank you a lot  :hug:

Share ratio = Uploaded GBs divided by Downloaded GBs. Minimum ratio = the minimal Share ratio you need to have to be able to download. It happens because there is no data flow from you to other users, as there are to many seeders and too few leechers connected to your torrents.
