i wonder how much is left from the very early sharing ideals from the dawn of the internet.
do you juat take or do you offer something?
upload stuff, contribute by seeding, rip, be part of a group …?

Try to seed as much as I can, usually around 2:1, though my ratio is only 1.57 on one of the sites I frequent, so I’m apparently just a leech.

I have deluge / sonarr / radarr set to seed to 2:1
i usually seed until it reaches seed factor 5. i am planning to set up my NAS to seed indefinetely with a limited bandwidth.
For my automated content I go by a factor of 4. Things that I download manually usually also gets ratio 4 but things that are hard to come by or that I really like get unlimited ratio.
This is me, except a ratio of 2. Hard to find things or if it’s taking a long time to download, I let it seed indefinitely
I always try to seed whenever I can, since I only have mobile connection
Are ye a pirate or are ye Robin Hood?
i am a thief like we all are, no need for euphemism.
but i’d rather be robin hood than stoertebeker.
where do you think your files come from?
i just think if everybody once in a while would just buy and upload one file there would be a lot of new or unusual stuff.
I dont upload but i do seed, im not gonna lie my ratio is below 1
On private trackers I seed until I delete the files(if I need space or the movie/tv-show is really bad)
On public trackers I don’t take too much risks and only seed one day or ratio up to 1.
And it’s setup on Radarr / Sonarr / Transmission, so I don’t have to do much anymore
I don’t use torrents all that much to be quite honest - I just download and forget about it with my qbittorrent running in the background pretty much 16 hours a day while I’m awake.
Think the highest seed ratio I accumulated doing this was 500 ratio on a 50gb file.

Absolutely. I used to rip movies myself for my favorite private tracker. It shut down a while ago though, so now I’m just back to regular seeding.
Private trackers I seed until Im running out of storage, public ones up to 1.2 ratio.
I used to upload some content, but dont have anything thats not already available anymore.
I did some donations to our fellow pirates tho
I don’t have a lot of stuff that’s not already uploaded. Niche books mostly. I offer x3 the upload on public torrents and indefinite on privates.
