    Exactly! Please check the torrents page and you'll see that most of the torrents have only been snatched less than 5 times. A lot even have 0 snatches!



    Pr0n with ZERO snatches?!? Really? On a lot of sites, pr0n is a ratio booster since it's almost guaranteed to have a lot of snatches. You don't think FTN has a problem with leechers? Why do you think they increased the userbase? Come on, Corey...

    Seeding bonus it's a easy system that you can cheat - you can limited your upload speed.. or just put pause on torrents and so on.. anyway i think that are many disadvantages on this system.
    If you have FTN it's supposed that you already had a very high speed connection 100 Mbs or something like this in the case if you are there only for torrents and their pre's.
    FTN it's a 0day tracker so they don't need to have a large number of active torrents, if u are looking for old releases search them on a specific tracker.
    Also this problem it's a site related one.. so discus about it on their irc or forums.. here.. you only got some unnecessary posts.

    Thank you for pointing out to me what I already pointed out in my other post in the first page.

You don't want to overdo it and give a seeding bonus of 25MB or 50MB per hour because if you do, majority will cap their upload speed and just rely on the seeding bonus.

    You think no one wants to leech those "old" iMDB packs or any other "older" packs? What about new users who just joined FTN and wants to leech Family.Guy.Volumes.1-4.Boxsets.DVDr-FTN (1 seeder, 50GB) or Friday.The.13th.BOXSET.PAL.DVDR-NEOTERiC (1 seeder, 39GB) just two name two examples?

    We should just laugh at them because they joined too late? Seriously?


    EDIT: Some of the packs that would benefit from the seeding bonus:




    Some of the best stuff to download but with very few seeders on them, it'll take MONTHS to download those 30GB+ packs! I wonder what the speeds are on those torrents...

    100% agreed. FTN have freebies all the time, they do -not- need any form for bonuses, everyone are able to seed at the tracker with all those freebies if you just have some patience..

    Tiffany, you totally overlooked part with freebies, that's the most important part why seeding bonus doesn't need to be implemeneted.
