Question about seeding
-
Can I give files (via usb) I have previously downloaded to someone else so they can seed them and help improve their ratio? Do they need to re-download the .torrent file or will giving them my .torrent file work as long as it's from their IP address?

First off, I highly suggest you do more reading on torrents, it's really important since mistakes can get you into all kinds of trouble. Yes, you can give your friend the files, both the raw and the torrent file, so that he has something to start the initiation seed. But, honestly, he should be finding his own stuff to upload. It will be a burden if they constantly do this.

Why don't your friend just download a newly freeleech torrent with a bigger file and lots of leechers much easier to recoup the ratio they needed.
Or as AnythingOld says, just upload his own.

Fucked that!! If both of them don't have a full grasp on how to use torrents, then they both need to donate to the tracker and get upload points. And Seeeeed!!!

Give them the video files only and they can put them in their torrent download folder. They have to download the .torrent file logged into their own account. When they add them to the tracker it will read the file and seed if you have done it correctly. I did this to help someone out and I have also done it myself with videos from other sites when I didn't want to keep seeding there and the same video was here. I will tell you the person I helped by setting him up with an account and making it easy for him to get off to a good start with his ratio didn't really appreciate the trouble I went to.
Be careful NOT to share your .torrent files with your key and also make sure that person is not using the same IP address that you are using.
