Hello,

what are downsides of using multiple private trackers in one private torrent?

i mean same file is shared on multiple different private trackers so when i add multiple priv. trackers into that torrent, what are downsides for me?

this way i can help more people reach this file. I am aware that some trackers disallow this.

the downside is you get banned for ratio cheating, cause you are uploading data to multiple trackers from the same torrent.

well i never had any problem with seeding one file on multiple sites ever , i dont think u will have any issue but perheps some sites dont allow that but its rare

u could get in trouble only if u sharing some exclusive pack of movies or tv shows ect on different site.

that is my experience

The way you are supposed to do this, is by using each sites separate torrent file and simply pointing the download location towards the same data. That way the upload stats are tracked separately, and sent to each of the corresponding sites correctly. If you add all the tracker announces into the same torrent file, it will announce your total upload to every site you use, and will look like you are creating fake upload. Someone correct me if I'm wrong please. It is possible I have misunderstood the protocol all these years.
