When You FreeLeech, Do You Seed Back as Much as You Leeched?

[Bionic]

Hey there,

Well, lately I've been downloading many movie/TV series all FREELEECH and over 50GB(!), so I was wondering, are we supposed to seed back as much as we freeleeched from them? I'll be able to do it, but I wonder what others says here.

[kondrae]

ill seed for a couple of weeks, then delete, good ratio or not

[spybot229]

just keep it seeding for as ling as you can and watch your ratio go up as more and more people stop seeding the pack until your the only one seeding it and be score some major gb's.

Any who thats what i do cuz i have really shitty bandwidth

[helpme]

always do my best in seeding
free leech or not (no problem)

[Tsvetanov]

Usually i don't, because most of free leech torrents are big packs and it's hard for me to seed to 1:1. But i don't hit n run of course, i'm seeding couple of days.

[bilkenter]

it depends on where you freeleech, if it is a music tracker, i certainly seed half of what i leech but not all since the hd i have isnt enough... but for movies and other things, i generally do

+1 :D
me too

[thebazzla]

i usually keep them seeding for about a week

[jars]

I forever.

[TP635]

With my slow connection,that is the only time I have chance to get some positive ratio. I seed until I have have no space in my HD. then I remove those torrents that have ration above 1.

[fcoo]

I try my best to seed back,but the result always not satisfactory.

[NPAX1]

I always use freeleech packs as an opportunity to get good boosts in ratio, so yes I seed back as much as I leeched, and even more :D

[Stabber]

I always seed back as much as i leeched :)

[Bionic]

If you've a seedbox, for sure you'd seed back in 1day a x4 of the leeched amount. lol. People like me with home connection about 25kb per second up, is just way too slow, and we've just take our luck towards it. Stick to rules and all are safe! Everything is fair at the end.

[slimdogp]

Oh hell no. I blatantly hnr on all freeleech torrents. Sometimes I cheat real quick before I HNR though.. it just depends.

:slap:

[amiga500]

I seed free leech torrents for at least 24 hours (or longer if the tracker requires it), and then delete it if no one is leeching any longer.

[LoKaLiRi]

seed as u can

[Bionic]

Do you think it would count as Hit n' Run when you close your client after done downloading?

[Ali-g]

Weird question...
When on a freeleech ppl DL as much as they can and UL as much as they can/\
I know noone who actually sees toward to reaching 1:1 ratio or any ratio at all on a free-leech torrent. They jst max out their bandwidth on UL and UL as much as they can. Huh... I said it twice

[torrentpoptarts]

Yes, unless the torrent expires for some reason. I try to seed back to at least 2, and then if the particular torrent needs it, I might seed to a ratio of about 4.

[Swift]

untill 1:1 or more

[markupmaster]

Yes,I always seed the required amount.

[Ghostbusters]

With my slow connection,that is the only time I have chance to get some positive ratio. I seed until I have have no space in my HD. then I remove those torrents that have ration above 1.

+1 I usually seed a fresh TB HDD full of DVD's every 6 months or so

[haveblue]

With my slow connection,that is the only time I have chance to get some positive ratio. I seed until I have have no space in my HD. then I remove those torrents that have ration above 1.

Same. I keep them seeding as long as I can, even above 1. But, eventually no one's leeching and I run out of space, when I delete and d/l something else freeleech to seed :)

[F.B.I]

3:1 / 4:1 and then I delete the file don't matter if it is freeleech or not.

[ryan20021982]

I always do 1:1 or what ever time the tracker requires

Some trackers still want you to seed for a certian amount of time
even when it is freeleech

[dunson]

Sometimes more, sometimes less. Whatever happens in a day or two.

[KennyX]

Sometimes. On trackers where free leech is uncommon I usually seed as long as possible but on trackers where freeleech is every month I just act like normal and seed about a week.

[nthpeter]

I usually cant reach 1.0 ratio, especially on packs with some seedboxes that upload tons of GBs.

[deadalive1]

I try and seed back to @ least 1.5:1 ratio but on bigger packs say 20gb or more I seed longer usually 2 to 2.5:1.

[fOrUmAs]

Of course i always seed to at least 1:1 but in general abouth 1:2 free leech or not.

if i dont get 1:1 (lack of leechers) then i seed for abouth 3-5 days untill i get 1:1 or more :)

[t1m3k33p3r]

the whole point of freeleech is to build a buffer and seed back AS MUCH AS YOU CAN!

[aaatoel]

Most of the times yes... But, when I am running out of disk space I try to delete a few things even if they haven't reached 1.0 ratio.

[TP635]

Most of the time, yes. On trackers that I already have a good ratio I seed to just above 1, but in trackers where I need to better my ratio,I seed to a lot more.

The only time I don't seed back it full is when there is no more space in my HD and that I had reach the minimum time limit for seeding.

[Legion]

I seed alot more when I get my hands on freeleech...dunno why...it's like I'm motivated, or maybe 'cuz my upload speed doesn't go over 50 kb/s :lol:

[invitehuntah]

yup, freeleech is one of the best way improving your ratio :) so I often grab alot when it is freeleech just to seed.

[Eargasm]

Not only do I seed back what I leeched, but I seed as much as possible.

My ratio is usually 7:1 on sites that have free leech/seeding bonus - and 3:1 on sites that never have seeding bonus.

[hitman51]

i seed for as long as i can afford to use up that space

[respawn40]

Same here.
