Help avoiding TL wait times

[Ghostbusters]

fs wrong thread I'm such a noob sometime

[SgtMajor]

im trying the grab from another tracker and upload on TL but it's not seeding at all and still says "access denied - wait time in effect." any suggestions?

Grab a torrent that is not wait time restricted, you still can't seed a new torrent if you are on wait times, as suggested - go back a page or 2, if it was me I would look for older & popular DVDRs or XBOX 360 games - they always seed & seed for ever, try getting 2 or 3 or as many as you can handle, within 24 hourts you will have seeded the 4GB needed easy.

I just can't stand wait times. I checked out TL and let the account vanish because I wasn't going to deal with that plus the ads. The site is too big and insecure anyway.

What ads? Ever heard of adblock plus?



Also TL allows for a little grace period. I think it's 4GB but don't quote me on that. Stay away from whole DVD releases as you will pass that benchmark.

thats what i use - adblock plus

what do u mean by grace period? i know you have to seed to .4 or 24 hours or you'll get a HnR warning.

[Night0wl]

HnR warning and low ratio warning are two very different things. No matter what your ratio/uploaded amount is, you should not HnR any torrent.

Lowest acceptable ratio for members is 0.4, but until you have downloaded... like I said I'm not sure, but 4GB I think, that ratio requirement is nonexistent.

You could just search or ask in their forum, then you should get a definite answer.

It's to help new users.

download a stg xvid when he releases them

Still wait time restricted

Older files with leechers are what is needed

TL is sooo easy to seed back on. any popular torrent you can easily seed 2.0 in 24hrs (of course depending on your ul speed)

[tknaught]

Just download the most recent version of Windows Vista, Windows XP, or Mac OSX. Those torrents always consistently get new leechers and generate traffic for many months.

download stuff from somewhere else, join the seed pool on tl...

partial seed stuff like samples on tv season packs...

really, if you download something popular, even 48h after its release, you still would be able to seed it back due to tl large userbase.

[renwickftw]

Err, TL is like the easiest site to seed on. 2 days ago, I grabbed a movie released a month or two ago with around 150 seeds and 20 leechers. After these two days, I've seeded back half of the 1.4GB, with my crappy home connection. Just partial seed popular things, I find DVDRs and Games to be real good, and seed them forever.

i dont understand partial seeding till now, can anyone ellaborate on this.
