    convince people that they can trust you. that's much more important than how much or how fast you seed.

    As long as you can show good ratios over 1 and there is enuf traffic to show you
    actually download and not just try to buffer the account for other reasons then
    you shouldnt have a problem depending on the tracker you have in mind and are not
    a trader, trust is the key.

    Just look around the giveaway section you can get alot without any proof

    Yeah make sure you photoshop those screens really well and you'll be fine.
    Now go away.

    the best thing is to keep your ratio upbove the danger zone

    a serious seeder is something like download 100gb and upload 350gb

    nowadays everybody has 100mbit... to be serious you need at least 1gbit.

    You seem to have a lot of questions bud. This is what, your 4th thread in an hour?

    A good plan would have been to start a thread like "hai, i'm new to this", and keep all your (similar) questions in that one thread so people can help you out properly.

    My feeling exactly.
    Anyone with a seedbox can have a big upload ratio,it doesn't mean that you care anything for the site.

    Just as important is how much you download .It is a much clearer picture (barring freeleech of course) of how much you actually use the tracker.

    Any ratio over 1 with 100's of Gigs downloaded is more impressive than a >10 ratio with little (downloaded).

    Get a good ratio on a few lower sites and link your profile up.... not just a screenshot. Most of the bigger guys have accounts on smaller sites.

    speedtest.net always helps too

    Eh, if the person doing the giveaway has any sense than he's going to not even care about screen shots. Just be active and friendly around your forums trackers, and irc's and keep up your ratio up and don't HnR, you'll be alright.
    See ya in another life, brother.
