How come seeders are more than registered users?

[Giorgi]

I see this on many private trackers, stats show that there are lets say 29 000 registered users and at the same time 35 700 seeders...

how came? :ermm:

Probably beacuse it counts every seeder on a torrent, so if there are 3570 torrents with 10 seeders on each you have 35 700 seeders.

[fOrUmAs]

because many people seeding 10-50-100 torrent pre one acc so that is why :)

[ScreaminJay]

Well, many trackers even have 10x more seeders than there is users... Good example of that is big music trackers...

[pandabear]

Or SCT :P, before the user limit increase that is. Crazy peers to users ratio.

[grimms]

Yup many users have like 50 torrents seeding.

[VIZFX]

50 torrents seeding? Now that's some serious ratio build up.

[filonome]

yeah id say

[Giveaway]

i think they're counted per every torrent

[stoi]

it is every torrent they have going.

if it was unique peers i think you will be surprised (not every torrent just 1 for each user on any torrents)

when we had 70,000 members we only had 13,000 unique peers but 100,000 peers on the tracker.
