In all my years, I’ve never been forced to donate to a private tracker. Most of them throw ratio at you, because you get it for seeding even if nobody is downloading from you. Shit, on MAM, I actually only have a 0.3 ratio, because everything is seeded so well. But I’ve been given credit for a 23.1 ratio.
If a person feels like they’re being forced to donate, it’s probably because they’re a leecher, and used to being able to just quit torrents whenever they want.
If you’re going to be forced to donate to a private tracker, just fucking buy a Usenet subscription instead.

MAM economy is actually so easy. I’m at 10 TiB of upload and still have bp left over. I think my actual upload is something like 700 GiB.
