Dead Torrent
-
@ikpooo A dead torrent is a torrent that no longer has any seeders. It's possible that you MAY be able to bring life back to it by requesting a re-seed using the button at the bottom of the page, but it's hit or miss as to whether or not it will come back to life.
The only difference between martyrdom and suicide is press coverage! -
By all means use the "request reseed" button,
but also download the torrent, where it will sit idle on your machine until someone reseeds it.Will someone in fact reseed the torrent? That depends on how many people snatched the material, and how long ago it was active. In my experience, about one-third of such requests are fruitful, so it's worth a try. If you haven't had luck finding a seeder within a week, it's probably not going to happen and you can delete the torrent from your client.

Thank you so much for the tips!!
Yeh, I don't think it's gonna happen, the torrent is almost two years old, but do you recommend I put all the files on the bittorrent first for it to stalled while waiting for a seeder? Will it affect my ratio? -
@ikpooo When the torrent file is downloaded and running in your client (such as uTorrent or whatever you use), you can select some or all of the files that you want to download--just make sure it's in your torrent list, and it will probably say something like "connecting to peers" and show zero seeders.
It will not affect your ratio until someone responds to your reseed request. Once they do, the system will record how much you've downloaded from them. You won't get any upload credit, though, because those people who connected already have the files and it's unlikely that other people will hook up to an old torrent.
Downloading the torrent file and loading in your client will count against your limit for how many torrents you can download in a given day, as well as how many torrents you can have downloading at a time. (It counts as "downloading" even if there's nobody sending you data.) You can find the limits that apply to your account by going to https://www.gaytor.rent/rationator.php
Don't be discouraged: People do sometimes respond to reseed requests. If you're not having luck, though, I recommend against sending additional requests. If somebody got a request once and didn't respond, getting another one likely won't work.
Good luck!

copy & paste the torrent link and address to helpdesk:

That way they can send PM who originally posted and from those who downloaded in case re-seed fails ... -
