    FTN, as always, looks concerned by the issue and besides the ratioless thing and now the timeless thing staff seems worried and looking for solutions.
    I thought that new rules in SCT could help, but for me at least, every day is becoming harder and harder to seedback.
    Somebody else thinks the same?
    Porn always work for me....LMAO, just seeded one at F*N, more then 1:1 ..in 1 day, without Seedbox....

    It's simply imposible to seed every torrent 1:1 at just about any tracker except public ones and the whole ratio thing well throws me off. That's whay I preffer usenet. I do like trackers that have nice bonus systems or low ratio requierements.

    Like Enlightened said though. If you have problems getting your ratio up, usually porn seems to help a lot since everyone loves porn.

    But do not expect to seed very torrent 1:1. It won't happen and I do use my system for more than torrenting to have my system seeding a hundred torrents 24/7 till I get 1:1 ratio on every torrent.

    As far as SCT goes, I decided not to use it cause it's almost impossible to seed at all there plus it's just a general tarcker. That place really needs more free leech torrents, not just packs and a bonus system.

    Nemrod my old buddy, yes with seedbox it's quite easy to seed on both trackers providing you have some free time to jump on new torrents, but if you ain't got the free time to jump on the new torrents then regardlees of seedbox or not your not makin good seeding.

    I was made redundant from my job going back last year and I had some free time so I was able to keep up a good ratio and make good buffer, these days I gave up my seedbox and with my home connection it's difficult enough to keep a 1:1 on Sct or FTN but leave them seeding long enough and nealy always someone seems to grab the torrent even if it is 2-5 weeks later

    All in all, these day's yes unless you have a seedbox it can be difficult to maintain a good ratio if you download a lot, but to a moderate user it shoud be no probs... my view anyway

    Hi my good friend!

    Yes, youīre right, I understand what you say, the thing is that even having plenty of time I am not used -and I wonīt- to be hunting releases as soon as they are published... I download what Iīm going to use, downloading something just for buffering my account, even when Iīve done it, itīs something I donīt like so much... canīt find the sense, honestly.
    A good friend lent me his seedbox, Iīve used boxes in some others few opportunities and I noticed that now itīs much more difficult to seedback. With my home connections I have no problems reggardless my slow speeds... I have some torrents seeding for more than 6 months, and there they will remain until my PC burns on fire.

    Anyway, it was only a comment, I have very good ratios and itīs not a big problem or something immediate like that.

    Thanks Fisherman, and to others mates as well for your advices and suggestions.

    I've been having no problem hitting 1:1 on most my torrents at FTN. The ones that I haven't hit 1:1 are older ones though(a few weeks old), everything new has pretty much hit it. Not that I'm worried about each torrent breaking even there.

    My vote is for retarded.
    Please do not randomly PM asking for invites as I have none to give out. Have a nice day.

    honestly i found it quite easy to get an insane buffer on sct by just downloading the packs since they are freeleech. i would never be able to download enough to keep up with the amount i was uploading from those and even users without a seedbox can get a few GB's of upload out of each of those and then do their best with the torrents that arent freeleech. its really not that hard to keep a good ratio even for users with crappy upload.
