How to improve your Ratio

sgmusuk

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.

you suck up

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.

thanks for the reply to my 'lack of information' post. At http://tracker.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=14198&dllist=1#seeders when i look at all seeders I am now showing as having uploaded 788.23 MB when in fact my utorrrent says i have uploaded 3.59GB This is the confusion i have….

Hi derfm,

the peerlist shows the amounts of your (and/or your peers) last session since you started utoorent the last time whereas utorrent shows the cumulated amount of all sessions of your upload. There is no comparable figure to that amount utorrent shows on our database.

It's either the detaiul figures of your last session (peers list) or all accumulated up-/downloads in your profile - which uT doesn't show likewise. the accumulated amount uT shows in U:xxx and D:xxx are only the accumulated amounts of your last session.

nickvie

i need to improve my ratio.
i keep putting files up for seeding but no-one is downloading them.

currently you haven't uploaded any files, this explains why nobody has downloaded them

I understand I have been blocked for the ratio of 0.171 and all activity has been stopped but I cannot comprehend how that is possible since I have been seeding for a while now and actually have re-seed requests on seeds that are blocked at this moment.

I understand that you want to get rid of the leechers however, blocking me all together including my seeding?

How am I to get my ratio up now??????

You have downloaded 6 videos but they are all stopped. Four of those videos have leechers wanting the files.

So to ask the question, since I have completed torrents trying to seed, they cannot because of this ban (also I have been seeding for a while); since I cannot upload to even seed is the only option for me to "donate"??

You can still seed (and re-download) torrents that you've completed, in an attempt to increase your ratio.
My guess is that the torrents that you've been "seeding for a while" have had a low amount of leechers, which have barely made any difference to your ratio.

If you decide to upload a torrent. Then yes, you will be able to re-download the torrent-file to successfully seed the file.

@pdu4:

There are three ways to improve your Ratio:

1. Seed torrents with a lot of leechers, or torrents with very few or no other seeders.

2. Upload a new torrent ? make sure you use ?Search? to prevent duplicates, and make sure that you are not seeding or leeching anything else until 3 or 4 others have snatched the complete file. (Read the rules!)

3. The easiest way to improve you ratio is to click on the ?Donate? on the top blue stripe. Make a contribution to the site to help defray the hundreds of Euros (dollars) a month it costs to keep this site on the internet.

Im seeding like crazy, U32.67/D93.95 but my ratio keeps droping. When does it start to go up? And please tell me, what do I get for exchanging the bonus points when I reach 100, it says something about on the fly but I dont understand what that means. Also,how much of an increase in ratio would I get for $20 or so?

I just looked at your account. It shows that you are NOT seeding anything. Don't expect your account to get a better ratio unless you Seeding. You can leave your computer on all day, but if you are not Seeding, your ratio will not improve.

Im using azureus, when the movie has downloaded, it starts to seed. theres 25 and most of those show seeding, but to where? It shows uploaded amounts, in mb a few in gbs uploads speed and says its seeding, it shows number of seeds per file, but NO connected, so Im doing something wrong, please tell me what Im doing wrong so I can correct the problem.

Yes you are now seeding several torrents. BUT YOU ARE LEECHING 7 TORRENTS. The rate of kbs for Leeching/Downloading is about 5 times that of Seeding. As long as you continue to Leeching all those torrents your ratio will keep dropping. You are useing a large amout of your Bandwidth for Leeching! If you want your ratio to go up STOP LEECHING.

Hi
I am new to this site..
I would like to know.. what happens if you have downloaded a film but turns out no one is uploading from you.. does this affect your ratio? I do not want to be classed as someone who just takes a film without sharing but if no one is uploading from you.. what do you do? keep it still open or find something that there is lots of people leaching etc!
I would be greatful for any help
