I will use a public tracker for music i cant find anywhere else only.
And as someone already stated, You will be downloading at about 5-10kb and uploading about 10 times that, So by the time you have downloaded it, You have already achieved a ratio of 1+
I never Hit n' Run, too old to be that selfish.
By the time I finish dl'ing, my ratio is normally 1:1. So yes it a hit and run.
Yes, I do hit and run on public trackers, and that is because I normally use public trackers for small apps torrents, which are mostly below 20 MB. And I use public trackers very occasionally.
I don't use public tracker, but when I did I always tried to at least seed back what I took.
I use public trackers for all general stuff - music, e-learning (I dont have any private trackers for this) amongst others. They're only small things and I don't find them to be a big enough deal to have to get from a private tracker. I usually leave all torrents on all day for about three days. By the time I remove it I'll have uploaded to like 5.00+
I don`t use public trackers :)
i DO hit and run on public trackers...no shame in it. there are things that i will seed like linux distro or several other large freewares, but even then....still dont put too much effort into it.
lol too old on this forum would make u what...19??Quote:

yes
I rarely use private trackers, and when I do... well, I can't remember xD
I guess I sometimes seed and sometimes HnR... it gets to around 1:1 in the end of the download anyway lol
i use it for some times and HIT and Run
No Ratios :P
I am trying to seed 1/1 in every tracker.
yes i HNR in a public tracker everytime :D
thats what public trackers are for
never used public trackers:noes:
lol hell yeah. public trackers are like fat bitches, stick and move.
When i was a bittorrent noob yes , I HnR everytime ... but when i started with the private trackers i seed all i can on public trackers too.
Maybe once or twice, but usually I try to seed.
Never.
Why would you only not HnR on private trackers? Hypocrisy is you ask me.
cuz On private u have ratio and on the outside no-one is giving a shit about ratio?Quote:

Year ago I used the public trackers a lot.
When I finished download I upload about 1.2 or more.
Now I use the private trackers, and I upload about 2 and more.
In spite of my download speed is 10 times of my upload speed.
i used public sites at the beginning, but rarely these days...
Well, come to think of it when I download something from the public trackers the ratio upon completion is > 1.
Even though there's no ratio I'd still stay to seed, because that's what file sharing is about :yes: ..but I guess the people saying they hit n' run so it with other things as well, gnutella, edonkey, etc. Shame on you :P
people dont seed on public trackers i get 10k/s download rate or less
I really don't care about my contribution on crowded torrents. Usually download speeds are slow and you automatically seed a lot so I pay no attention. On the other hand if torrents have very few seeders or leechers basically rely on me to get their content... then I keep sharing as long as it's necessary. Just like it should be, heh.
i dont do hit and run on public torrent sites.. they just have the lowest priority^^
i gave up on public trackers a year ago sometimes had to wait a week for a torrent to download oh happy days
I used public sites at the beginning.....but rarely these days...
when i use public trackers, when the torrent finishes, i have like 1.0 ratio so I can't say I hit n' run:P
to be honest
i never seeded on public tracker
Your honesty touch My heart.Seriously.:)Quote:

I rarely download from public trackers (when going to public I prefer others networks... like ed2k)... but in the rare occasions I downloaded: yes I did hit and run (of course seeded back way more then 1:1.... as generally ppl on public trackers upload veeeeery sloooow... )
that's for a very simple reason: IFP, MPAA and so on... so, as soon the download is finished, i stop seeding...
on public tracker when you done you got ratio 2 or more so what's the point of this :P
i don't use public trackers:D:D:D:D:D:D
I don't use them anymore nowadays, but I used to try to get to 1:1, even though I gave more importance to Private Trackers..
