I use the shadow BT client but what exactly does the share rateing do? The reason I ask is i found a flaw that if you do a certian thing right when you start the client I can get my share rateing to jump. so if i had 0.000 i could make it jump to 5.000

I think the it just shows you the ratio of your uploads to your downloads i dont know if it actually affects something

share rating is useless

if there are no seeds you dl only from other based on share rating

it there are seeds its useless

if your doing it with popular torrents it should always work, remember to seed afterwords (don't hit cancel :angry: )
only seems to work if you have a green light, as I tried it over @ my friends last night and he doesn't have a green light and it slowed down when I tried it
