Low Ratio - lets help ourselves !

popgap

How I can do it? I don't understand .

Not sure if I should start a new thread or what???

I am desperately trying to up my ratio but every large leaching torrent nearly ends after I upload it.

The current vid I am trying to seed - "{SX Video} Double Fuck My Ass 2" shows 4 leachers but I am not seeding to any of them???

I am using TRANSMISSION on a MacBookPro and GT.ru is the only site I have any problem seeding to. I picked this vid because when I downloaded it it had a zillion leachers and I was sure I could improve my ratio but TRANSMISSION only shows a ratio of (0.10%) since downloading.

Since I am successful on other sites I am wondering if there is something I should be doing different on GT.ru?

Thanks for any suggestions,
frank

btw, TRANSMISSION also shows the 4 leachers in the "Inspector" but it doesnt want to seed!

That torrent got as well more than 240 seeder, so the 4 leecher don't need to download from you.

You should try to seed torrents you've completed with less seeder per leecher, for example "Chaosmen - Heath & Jasper : Labor Day - FLIP .." the ratio is 10x better

Then you Transmission is not connectible for our tracker.
-You need to open the port it uses (see the Transmission connection settings yo know the number) in your firewall for incoming connections.

The portforwarding or Network Adress Translation (NAT) from your router (or WiFi access point which includes the router function) to your Mac must be as well configured correctly for your Mac's local IP and that port. Alternatively you can use UPnP (if your modem/router/AP supports it) and/or NAT-PMT (Apple Airport) to get it setup automatically

Being connectible eases the upload (and download). Without it isn't impossible, but works less well.

find new torrents with 1 seed and pref single digit leech.
chances are others will join in after you and you get to seed to them.
preference of cos will be if u actually wanna watch the vid.

even if theres alot of leech you most likely get to upload, just not as much as you will be able to.
it's even better if you can leave your torrent overnight, since your completed files will continue to seed to other people who hopped onto the train late.

another way (not as good) is to throttle your download so that your uploads can keep up with the ratio. The downside is that it will take longer to finish the vid for watching.

nothing beats actually uploading a non-duplicated vid/file though! You're guaranteed to at least upload 100% of the file size (usually more).
not to mention people get to send you gift seed bonus that you can change for uploaded traffic. 350 for 5gb uploaded.

good luck!

Thanks for the replies.

Right now I have to rush out to visit the parents and will try to see if I can follow both these instructions.

Thanks again!

I have donated to this site, more than once. But 50 Euros currently translates close to 70 U.S. Dollars. To a student like myself, that can make the difference between buying all my books this semester or not. One of the reasons P2P is such a great option. That said, I do very much advocate supporting the site -based on individual ability.

… tried to research my issues and discovered my "Network: Peer listening port:" is CLOSED!!! I have followed the easy steps to try to remedy it all but failed :cry2: the next step is going onto TRANSMISSIONS forum and sending them some data file to see if they can figure out what the issue is... then try to follow their instructions and :cheesy2:

At this moment in time I got a year of two very sick parents to take care of... a 40 year old fridge trying to die on me and what looks like a very very very cold winter!

I might try looking thru my large library for a new HOT HOT HOT vid that isnt on here already (but you guys have absolutely E V E R Y T H I N G :blind: ) to upload (or just take a break :hug: and figure it all out laterz...

thanks again (and happy holidays)

Try utorrent instead.

I just changed from Vuse to uTorrent (Mac) because Vuse randomly drops seeds. I want to re-seed the files I've downloaded but not sure if the mod will allow since they are duplicate. How do I re-seed them so I can get my ratio back up?

mgr

Let me say it again:

re-seed does not mean re-upload!!!

re-seeding means to just actively seed the old torrent in your client. If you don't have the old torrent file any longer - just re-download the torrent file again from our tracker (you can re-download your already completely snatched torrents even if your download rights are taken away). There is no upload involved in re-seeding an existing torrent thus the question of duplicate uploads is not relevant. There is no difference in your upload traffic if you re-seed an existing torrent or upload a new torrent.

How are you liking uTorrent(Mac)? I have always and only used Transmission as that was recommended on another gay torrent site years ago.

Thanks for the input,
