Do you Hit n' Run on public trackers
After reading various threads about how much people seed or don't seed I though it could be fun to know if people Hit n' Run or if they stay to seed when they grab something from a public tracker.
So what do you do outside the private trackers, and why? And when you're at it what would you download from the public trackers, if anything?

i never use Public sites..
Re: Do you Hit n' Run on public trackers
Used public in the very beginning but not anymore. So. . . I guess I 2 can't answer this question
Re: Do you Hit n' Run on public trackers
I used public trackers a lot in the past
The speed were so bad that by the time I finished download I had already uploaded 1:1

The upload speed is usually maxed out and the download speed is about 5kB/s if its even downloading at all. :pinch:

I sometimes use public torrent sites, i try to upload about 1:1 always i use it.

Well I think that it matters in some way, because if no one seeds on the public trackers the torrents will die very quick! Personally I download many linux distros, and stay to seed thinking if everybody hit and runs nobody else is going to get it at a decent speed or even get it at all.

Sometimes I use public trackers on very rare files now that Demonoid is down. I seed for the courtesy of the other people who are leeching the same file as me. As I know it's rare to find.
Re: Do you Hit n' Run on public trackers
^ what he said. Anything thats rare, i will grab off publics, and just seed since it usually only has 1 seeder or something. tho i usually hit 1:1 (that is i have uploaded total torrent size) before the torrent finishes
