IMPROVE YOUR RATIO BY CAREFULLY SELECTING YOUR DOWNLOADS!! NEW POINTERS!!!
-
A couple things to keep in mind here at GTRU:
Torrent popularity here is VERY SHORT LIVED; usually not more than a few days. If you REALLY want to take a competitive approach to try and improve your ratio, you'd constantly REFRESH the Torrent Search function, and find only BRAND NEW torrents that have JUST BEEN UPLOADED, that you think will become popular torrents… and download only THOSE torrents in the first minutes of being offered here.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
CONCERNS about FreeLeech torrents that you should keep in mind:
- freeleech torrents have limited time to which they stay "freeleech", and it's a common problem that members will download a freeleech torrent, then have the freeleech time expire prior to completion of the download, spoiling their ratio
- freeleech torrents have a LOT of members downloading and thus seeding IE this presents a LOT of competition to you managing to actually be able to seed much back.
Happy Torrenting!! :love:

Also, I've found that if there's a very new torrent containing many files, and I download just a few of them, my upload ratio on that torrent will be very large. I was in "ratio basement" a while back after a disk crash, and this saved me.

YES, but this torrent, being only partially downloaded (IE FILES SKIPPED) will FOREVER stay in your "Leeching Torrents" list, tying up one more of your download slots… forever.
Here's the link to the forum topic that explains WHY this is, and how to remedy it:

Quite true…but once the torrent withers and nobody is downloading the material, I can delete the torrent and free up that slot. I suppose having a free slot is a good thing, but I digress....
