    Wouldn't think so...esp if your seeding. Most trackers give you 42 days..some are much more strict, so I guess it depends on which tracker and what their rules are for inactive accts.
    "It's not what ya got, it's what you give."
    Please do not PM me for invites. Thx.

    You normally have 42 days to do both, some a bit longer, some a bit shorter, depending upon your user level.

    Read the FAQ for specifics, but generally whatever the time frame is, you really should do both within that time.
    Yes Sir, I'm Right On It!!

    There are trackers which disable your account if you do not download a minimum of X mb per month even if you seed what you have downloaded. This also depends on your rank.

    But all these are written in the FAQ or Rules of the tracker. So, if you read them and do exactly what they say you shouldn't have a problem.

    Cheers!

    Yes i would read the FAQ and rules to what ever specific tracker you got questions about. To play it safe though i would both seed and log in within 30 days regardless if it's 42 days or more, just to play it safe. Better safe then sorry, but if your sorry next time it will be best to play it safe.

    Excuse Me?
    Didn't Think So!

    YES. Even if you seed, your accounts will be disabled after a specific period, say 3-4 weeks. Its always better to log in to your trackers once in every 2 weeks. Thats what i do, so to be safe.

    I say no. I seed to all my accounts, and have yet to be disabled for one, despite sometimes going weeks without axxing an account. BUt i am PU on most sites, so i suspect i may have more tolerance.


    Someone invite me to fsc please

    just seeding might not be enough

    The very active trackers with 100% ppl USING THEM ban the users NOT USING them (downloading)... a perfect example is hdbits
