    Exactly.

    By the time I've finished downloading off public trackers I've uploaded enough to be able to delete the torrent as soon as it's finished without feeling too guilty. But I don't use them unless I have to

    I always try to seed back to 1:1 at least, but there are exceptions. But then again there are also exceptions where I seed to 20:1 if I have bandwidth available.

    I do set preference to the Private sites though and will rather pause or throttle a public torrent, so I can seed private ones.

    I don't like freeloaders, so I try to not be one myself.

    Nowadays, there are more trackers than there are members, so if your tracker misbehaves, they get bookmark removed, or worse, URL deleted.

    I feel the same way. I seed what I download, even if it's a public tracker. The thing is, I don't seed as much as I do on private trackers.

    I used too but since my upload speed is limited, I disconnect to allow my torrents from private trackers to seed.

    I never really use public trackers anymore. I seed to a 1:1 ratio when I do use them though.

    yes, when I'm forced to use a public tracker for something I can't find elsewhere, I always keep it seeding for a day or two.
