      As I said; you should be able to re-download the torrent-files for the movies that you've already completed.

          Hey. I am new here and i understand the that we are only allowed 3 active torrents if our ratio is below a certain level. My ratio is current 0.115, but i cant seem to download anymore stuff from this website. the tractor status says "bad ratio blah blah blah…. your current limit is 3 torrents at the same time"

          I have only 3 torrents but only one seems to be working

            That's because 1 file is 2 months old and the other is over 5 months old, both have only a few seeders. They tend to take longer to fully seed when they have a bit of age to them.

                Yes, you need at least 0.350 or 35% to download.

                  Greetings. Can anyone explain to me what a "POWER USER" is and how one attains such a status? Thanks!

                    Click on "Rules" on the top blue bar, then click on "Moderating rules - Whom to promote and why". I don't mean to be a 'smart ass' but you will find that if you read the "Rules" "FAQ" and the "Guides & How To's" in the Forum section there is hardly a question that is not covered.

                      Also read the condensed rules sticky thread in the general discussion section. 🙂

                        I am a bit dense; but I was unable to find "Moderating rules- Whom to promote and why" on the "Rules" page. However, there is a section for this on the "Rules" page of ST.ru–I was just wondering since Director97 or other Users may have trouble finding this section.

                          Is there any particular way to get beyond power user, or is it completely at staffs random discretion?

                            The rules for Power User are: "Automatically given to (and revoked from) users who have been members for at least 4 weeks, have uploaded at least 10 GB and have a share Ratio above 1.05. Moderator changes of status last only until the next execution of the script." In other words, the whole process is automated.

                            The other categories are VIP then Moderators. These are totally up to Joker. And by the way, anyone who applies for VIP status is will be automatically disqualified. You can apply for Moderator, but be aware that you have to be willing to work on the site, and you also must have certain capabilites that Joker feels the site needs (like a foreign language that we do not currently have).

                              Thanks for the info. I personally could never be a moderator - I just don't have the time to give to do the job.

                                Im kinda new at this. Not a techy person. I did read the rules and regulations and try visiting forums. The problem is im not really sure of the whole torrent terms. Like creating torrents or seeding them. Sorry im a noob. But im trying to understand. Another problem is, im using Utorrent. Lets say i want to make up ratio goes up and my connection here is bad. Do stop downloading and just let it upload? But then again, how do i do that with Utorrent. Sorta new to this whole torrent thing. Sorry.:(

                                  Hey Melvin13,

                                  It's a great to see other new users donating to such a well run site - one of the first things I myself done when I joined was to donate. The people here really do deserve a bit of help paying for what must be large costs to keep a site like this up to date and running smoothly.

                                        LOL, it does look like that, I admit. But I mean what I said without meaning to "suck up". I waited years for a site like this to come along, and I am very grateful to all involved.

                                            I just looked at your Member page and it shows you have 'Upload' 49.07 GB. I am replying to your post within 2 hours of your posting, so I don't see where you are getting the 43 MB (your message says 43 MB, but I am pretty sure you meant 43 GB!.) I have NEVER in almost a year that I have been a Mod, seen a case where a Member sees ANY different DL or UL numbers that we Mods see! It just can not happen! We see the same UL/DL numbers that you see.
