Does Hit and Run Rly Matters @ SCT

i think this only reason why you couldn't seed for at least a day or two would be a pc crash, like a broken hard disk, this shouldn't happen very often...!

otherwise, i just think there is no valid excuses for not seeding what you leech

Leave it to Detale to put things in proper perspective :lol:

damn, just read Detale post, so much violence in you...:lol:

yes he's an angry man :ph34r:

I think it's confusing in the sense that people assume that by building up a buffer that it provides them with the oppertunity to sometimes remove something if needed for whatever reason knowing you have already gave something back ie your buffer/ratio. If a tracker decides to be strict and enforce 1:1 on all files then what would be point of building your ratio, better still what would be the point in (example) ScT celebrating thier birthday with 3x upload if you still have to reach 1:1 on all files?

I think buffers are still handy because then you don't have to worry if your the last person to jump on a torrent. Most trackers don't enforce a strict 1:1 policy but also have time limits in case you can't seed back.

yup, FTN has 36 hours rules, SCT 48 hours etc... no so harsh to respect that

so with a big buffer, you can leech everything you want without caring of seeding back to 1:1, just leave the torrent running long enough

Slightly offtopic but I just found out tonight a good way of making sure I get on a file fast enough to get some ratio back from it.. ScT Notifier, Can't believe I did'nt know about that lol, That should help me out alot now since now I can jump on a file quicker and will have better chance of seeding back while it's still new. I've considered RSS before but it looed complicated.

lol i used to hit and run in sct i did 160 gigs by hitting and running...sorry but i have comcast crappy isp so i cant seed that well
