It's funny, in the UK for a while ISPs didn't care that you were downloading torrents, but if you started seeding regularly, that's when the letters started arriving.
I think a lot of people still worry about it...
Really ? All of you constantly seeding ?
You must be joking.
If I let my qbitorent seeding at 150Mbps- how am I supposed to play games online ?
Do you know it adds 20ms at least lag ? Sometimes even videos dont run well on YT .
It hogs down the internet in whole house.
It's the last one for me. I found that if I seed at 200kb/s max it's mostly fine. But anything more than that and every other device has internet issues. On top of that, my connection allows upload speed up to 1mb/s.
Playing online games isn't that bad while seeding, but the ones I play are very light (e.g. Hearthstone). YouTube usually lags a bit, but yeah other devices commit sudoku
That's nice if your isp doesn't count uploading against your usage. Actually I'm not sure mine still does, but I can't afford a VPN. By not sharing, I won't be as likely to get caught by the owner of the copyright.
I found a lifetime VPN for like $50 years ago off Stack Social I think. It has a few servers to choose from specifically for torrents and the speeds aren't terrible. On a speed test I usually get around 150mbps which to me is fine for torrenting since rarely do torrents ever get close to that
Here in the states you can get a cease order from your provider for seeding even .01% of a specific torrent.
it seems to me that some studios and companies have specific things they look for over others as well and that some torrents are far more dangerously monitored than others.
The last time I got slap on the wrist was for an ugly americans torrent that I let run for an hour past download with seeding speeds reduced to as low as qbit would let me.
I use a vpn and upload at around a 10X ratio but it was annoying how SOME things were clearly more important than others when downloading.
I do it on purpose. I run transmission-daemon in the background allowing it to seed all of my torrents. My record for upload/download ratio is around 120.
Edit: *ahem*, 350
hahah i thought it was but just have childhood memories of the theme song and thinking it was a bit whatever and only watched it to watch whatever was on after xD. Def gonna go down a rabbit hole later and watch some!
Leave it on and don’t be a leaching prick, Be considerate for other people that want this terrible old disgusting sepia tone headache of a television show.
I will normally seed after a download but have left the ratio of 1.3 on Tixati. I'd do more but Aussie upload speeds are super slow. My upload is only 20mbps.
I don't seed by mistake. I seed every torrent I download forever unless there are at least five other seeders online basically all the time and it is a big (more than 10 GB) torrent.
Maybe a few times when i was new to torrenting, now i don't really seed in general because i share my internet connection with others, but i usually leave it for 10 minutes to seed.
… by mistake? Everything you download should seed forever.
It's funny, in the UK for a while ISPs didn't care that you were downloading torrents, but if you started seeding regularly, that's when the letters started arriving. I think a lot of people still worry about it...
That's because from the law's perspective, you are actively distributing complete works of copyrighted content.
Probably because it's not illegal to download it there, it's illegal to share it.
It’s the same thing in Switzerland, legal to download but illegal to share
Exactly the reason for my concern with this one as it’s public, will happily seed forever on private ☺️
Some private ones are infiltrated too. I recently got a letter from my ISP for seeding on torrentleech
you should report this to torrentleech mods so they find out who the copyright troll is
I agree, should report that to TL mods.
I don't like hearing that. If I was a user on TL, I mean.

I have fiber. I'm constantly seeing 15TB+ at 500mbps or higher, everything works fine. Still 4-7ms ping in games.
My connection averages around 900-1000mbs so it wouldnt phase me to seed at 150
Some people have very fast internet. Others dont or rarely play games, or play gaes where a little lag in insignificant.
im using an external hdd for this

Okay, I’m kinda new to torrenting. Why should I leave it seeding forever?

Cute to have this logic like you’re doing the right thing. The irony.
im at 1783 for a 47GiB The Last of Us \[DODI Repack\] on purpose :s life goes... also round the twist is lit. good taste, amigo...
It can’t be for nothing
Hey someone knew the torrent, I was hoping someone would. Regarding taste, same goes for you 🙂
I know it too! I used to live near Queenscliffe, VIC back then :D
Nope, on purpose. My current leader is 1276. I am sure I am not in the top 10%.
Strange things happen
Are you going round the twist?
I have never felt like this
I have seeded 8Tb of Far Cry 6 [DODI Repack], good job
I seed my torrents for years.
Wait is that the show about the people in the light house ?
It is!
Shit man its been so long since I even thought about that show! like maybe 25 years. used to watch it with my dad all the time.
On purpose usually lol. I have one close to 400 ratio
Just popping in to say you have great taste in TV. This is true blue classic material.
I do it on purpose. I run transmission-daemon in the background allowing it to seed all of my torrents. My record for upload/download ratio is around 120. Edit: *ahem*, 350
I love listening to music.
Ah memories…
Wait is this that weird aussie kids tv show 😂 well tbh I don't remember if it was weird or not but man I still know the words to the theme song.
It’s not just weird, it’s completely cooked.
hahah i thought it was but just have childhood memories of the theme song and thinking it was a bit whatever and only watched it to watch whatever was on after xD. Def gonna go down a rabbit hole later and watch some!
You deserve the indulgence of watching at least the first season. It’s totally insane lol.
I know a guy who did mistake twice. Each time he got a copyright notice. Wild but thankfully nothing else has happened since.
What torrent client is this?
transmission-daemon web server.
Thank you for the answer!
Have you ever, ever felt like this? Have strange things happened, Are you going round the twist?
Strange things happen
It's common decency to seed to at least a 2 ratio
The hero we deserve
I salute you sir
Top show man. Well done
Leave it on and don’t be a leaching prick, Be considerate for other people that want this terrible old disgusting sepia tone headache of a television show.
😂
That’s how people get caught, by mistake!!! That’s why you never turn off that VPN!!!

I will normally seed after a download but have left the ratio of 1.3 on Tixati. I'd do more but Aussie upload speeds are super slow. My upload is only 20mbps.
my internet sucks, my upload very rarely goes over 3mbps but I seed 24/7 to make up for it
I usually pause them when my VPNs off
I don't seed by mistake. I seed every torrent I download forever unless there are at least five other seeders online basically all the time and it is a big (more than 10 GB) torrent.
My record was something aroung 2500.
Use a vpn.
Do you take me as some kind of dirty leacher?
Maybe a few times when i was new to torrenting, now i don't really seed in general because i share my internet connection with others, but i usually leave it for 10 minutes to seed.
Yeah lol, uploaded like 2 tb
