What is the hardest tracker to seed back to 1:1?

[Ligeia]

Which trackers do you find particularly challenging to seed back any file to a 1:1 ratio? Lately, I find OiNK extremely hard to do so on, unless I happen to catch a popular torrent in the first 30 minutes.

Any others you experience difficulty with?

[Rollin84]

they all are possible to seed to 1:1 its just how long its gonna take... i have a torrent on oink still tryin to get 1.0 been 2w5d its at .28 :)

[TYPE R]

the hardest is sct. a lot of ppl on there hav got seedboxs, but u can still hav a good ratio on there, i havnt got a seedbox my sct ratio is good. hehe

[Dr_Green_Thumb]

why do people keep saying that about sct its not hard. I did 500 gigs in 20 weeks at 128kBps. OiNK that is a challenge so is BmTV

i did 350 gigs in 2 days :P

[saulin]

And your ISP did not suspend your account?

What kind of limits does ur ISP offer a month?

haha from my seedbox friend... i have a 4TB limit :rolleyes:

[Dr_Green_Thumb]

now limit it to 128kB and so what you can do

[eLucid]

scc is the hardest that i know of. i have a 10Mbit connection and I can barely maintain a ratio of 1.

[Bucktoof]

I'm not at ScT so I cannot comment for its speeds, but at 128kbps, 500 gigs in 20 weeks is mathematically impossible.
128kbps = 16kb/s
16kb/s x 3600s/hr x 24hr/day x 140days = 193536000kb
divide that by 1000 --> 193536mb --> close to the 200gb range. :P Or please tell me my math is wrong! :D

If you mean you have a 128kb/s upload rate you could've easily done that, but then that's better than what most people have for uploading speed ;)

Or if you're including your download stat in the total of 500gigs, you must have a faster download and must've maintained a < 1.0 ratio.

[saulin]

scc has very few leechers... I would think it's hard on the bigger stuff. Not so much on TV shows

i could be wrong but he said kBps not kbps (notice the big B). kbps and kb/s are the same thing, while small b indicates bits and big B indicates bytes. so multiply what you got by 8 (1600GB) and it's definitely possible.

[Backslash]

sct is incredibly hard without a seedbox.
karagarga, fsc, and oink just take time
if you grab something old from bitmetv, it could also take a while.
i personally have trouble with wildbytes sometimes.

basically 1mbit up + x-mas bonus

[Bucktoof]

Ok, missed that, it just seems to similar to me.

But yeah, 1mbit up in my dreams :lol: I'm supposed to be getting 640kbps or 80kb/s, but I'm lucky to get 60kb/s upload

[darkseekers]

vote for bitmetv

[shyman]

there was a free leech few moth ago + double upload... still missing at least 100GB :)

[22ji]

none :)

[znik]

bitmeTV is the hardest of all the trackers I have got so for. :wacko:

[slau]

oink bitmetv and sct...

[shayelbaz]

onik & sct thats sure ......<<<

[Melvinmeow]

I havent really seen any that werent fairly easy to maintain a descent ratio. Then again I ussually grab mostly new content if I even bother dl anything off any sites.

[Skiz]

OinK was just impossible for me as I was downloading country music. While it's a predominant style of music where I live, it isn't easy to seed it on an international tracker. :dabs:

These days, I don't have a hard time seeding since I only use torrents for my new TV shows. Newsgroups for everything else.

[mestari]

OiNK is definitely the hardest one.
It needs much hard work uploading your own torrents and seeding everything almost forever...:P
But if you do that you can maintain quite good ratio at there anyway.

ScT isn't so hard because I don't even download much from there.
Only from free leech weekends and seeding 24/7.

[Shalafi]

oink
IT
fsc
sct

[torrentslave]

czone
oink

i have all the others but those seem toughest of the all

[terrorize]

bitmetv too.

[SHUVT]

Czone is easy now with the freeleech torrents they have started.
Oink of course is hard unless you upload your own material. I found e-learning stuff works great for a little boost.
SCC is a tuff one. Hardly any leechers even on the new torrents. Pron is the best bet to keep ratios up there.

[ABOUD]

i had some difficulties with oink in the past but not anymore ....

[greken24]

[lapa221]

guys
oink or bitmetv are nothing comparing to indietorrents
the only way to dl sth there is to use their freelech times to build up a decent ratio or to upload your own music

[monk3y]

sct or ftn i guess

[mestari]

sct or ftn i guess

FTN is piece of cake because they have their awesome freebie system :happy:

Forgot about indie... It is ruff on that one as well. People Czone is easy now with the freelech torrents up and running. It was bad up until a few weeks ago. :blink:

[walczanin]

Rsr, Iplay

[dawsonkm]

SCC was hard but worked the pron angle and it helps with the ratio

[maxehhh]

the trackers where im in the hardest for me were BitmeTV, my acc got disabled in less than a week, offcourse in that time i knew almost nothing about seeding and leeching... and after they ban me from there i realised that is not only Downloading and Uploading...

[Kruger]

Well, I guess for me the hardest one is bitmetv, I've got a ratio of 1.6 over there, but that's only because I've uploaded many torrents, I can raise my ratio much easier on other sites :-/

[Army]

oink

[djkamikaze]

oink is actually easy, all you gotta do at oinks is jump on some sacrificial torrents that you can seed teh hell out of:
1: browse all torrents, but only scan the first 5 pages for new uploads that have 1 seeder and at least 3 leechers already
2: download those torrents, but only DL 1 or 2 tracks from it (I usually grab track 1 and the last track on the album), set all other tracks to "do not DL"
3: leave it seeding for at least 24 hours, I've gottent as much as 300mb of UL in 24 hours from just seeding 1 little 5mb track.
4: when that torrent gets too many seeders, or popularity dies down, delete that torrent + data, and repeat steps 1-3.

this enables me to grab anything I want at oinks and my ratio never goes below 1.000. no worry about hit& run, as long as there are plenty of other seeders, and the more obscure stuff that is hard to seed can be downloaded at will.

yeah, bitmetv can be hard to seed to 1:1 sometimes, but I usually manage to do it in 24-48 hours on new episodes, and hell, they only require you to keep a 0.500 ratio on bitmetv...

I typically find the hardest sites to maintain 1:1 are the smaller ones with fewer members

[import_fighter]

Bmtv

[REVTTtorrent]

czone $ fsc

[fortunefaded]

The problem with uploading to bitmetv is that you have to get to 5gb before you can actually upload anything of your own. That's proving to be the hard part for me.

[ExT]

OiNK..

[greymatter]

:yup:
OiNK..

[ilya28071992]

oink the hardest
suprtorrents for me the easiest

[doda32]

Why guys is oink that hard to seed..:cry: :cry:
I don't get it. I currently have 5 popular torrents with more leechers than seeders and I upload only with 2-4kBytes. My upload is 512kbps, and I'm not downloading or uploading anything else. I don't have any problem with firewall, settings and stuff etc. I upload maximum to other trackers like bitme and bitmetv.
I'm sick of this ratio hunting, most people try to get power users and above with having extraordinary ratios like 3 and above. Some cause they want to get invites, some because they think is cool. So I don't think is cool....
Not at all. I need this tracker very much, but I can't maintain a good ratio. So now you will say upload sth. Well I uploaded, but I can't upload an album for every 2 to 4 albums I'm downloading. Despite that you got to have a large collection of albums to find sth to upload that is not uploaded yet. And you can't donate for upload gigabytes..:frusty:
My point guys is that, as there is a minimum ratio so to prevent leechers there must be a maximum ratio also. Of course the staff and elite members (with seedboxes) they will have free of ratio. But think that a little. You can't maintain a good ratio, because some users are uploading very much, or they have seedboxes. The alternative is to be some kind of bonus upload or sth.
What's your opinion guys?

[perastikos]

BitmeTv for me...
But i have experience only from TB and TL ;)

Power user to all of them thought :P

[r77]

oink is really hard yes

[Digital01]

OiNK
I'm seeding for a mohth, 10 files and I'm only upl 300MB. :frusty:

[caldus]

oink

[Helena]

Definatly Oink caus Torrents time out too soon...

Ya I agree. You can't have seeders without leechers. I don't think there should be a maximum ratio as that would just slow down a site. The minimum ratio should just be eliminated instead. In extreme cases some users should still be banned, but not for the value of their ratio alone.

[sorkis]

oink id say

[Galva]

OiNK was easy when discographies used to be accepted, now you either need methods as mentioned in this thread or a bit of luck on good timing. I do feel for the slower uploaders on the site, just work at it :)

[eric]

I would say OiNK too.. It's ashame though. Cuz I really like it. :)

[Buggyme]

OiNK. Even if you have a box, it can be pretty hard to pick the right torrents to seed on, unless you upload your own stuff that is.

[iraverde]

Oink, Bitmetv, SCT
