How do you increase your ratio?

Ways to improve your ratio:
.Seed 24/7 ALL what you downloaded.
.Partial dl and partial seeding of large but popular torrent. This can only be done on torrent with multiple files.
.For general tracker sites; partial download porn and seed back.
.For site with Freeleech torrents go for the FL even if you do not need it. Seed back for buffer. Choose those FL torrent with lesser seeders.

What you should not do.
. Hit and run.
. DL large (popular) torrent if you do not have a fast connection. you will not be able to seed back. Be sure you have enough buffer before doing this.
. Try and cheat. A big NO NO.

. Upload.

I have slow connection but have good ratio in most trackers except What ( but still above the min.)

Many sites are against p2l (pay to leech) so this is not the best strategy. Personally, I don't like the philosophy behind p2l and try to avoid sites that use this method as a funding tool.

RSS with torrents you know are going to come out, like TV Episodes that lots of people download (Prison Break, Lost, etc..)

Setup xxx section for rss autodownload and watch the bits go wild.

What I do is to seed something previously downloaded from other site. One of the last DVDr or episodes.
I usually don´t download anything until I have 20/30 Gb uploaded, and then, seed, seed, seed and seed... right now I´m seeding torrents more than 30 days old.
Some trackers, as TTi, LeechersLair, TDC and others have freeleech, it´s a very helpful thing.
I know I´m kinda fussy about that, even at FTN where there´s no ratio system I seed what I downloaded from other site... that´s make me feel like Hood Robin. :lol:

I barely download anything from FTN or iTS. But like Nem said just download torrents from other sites then upload (seed it) on another. Seed seed seed away. Never download any big in size unelss you have the buffer or like i stated earlier are partial seeding it.

But wouldn't that kill your memory? Lol.

Anyway, I've heard that there is a way of cheating the ratio system, and I do not want to do it, and do not plan to, but do you think torrent sites have the idea or know that some cheat their ratios?

Check out google. type in "HOW TO RAISE Your RATIO TORRENTS"
I was expecting a much more fairer explanation like seeding and the such but to my surprise, found this instead :P

You will kill your torrent reputation if you cheat. Don't do it.

And you are buying a no-return ticket to banland.
The majority of trackers have scripts as said before, and Waffles has a very good one as I could read, the same on ScT, BitMeTV, BlackCats-Games and a very extensive etc.
Besides, that´s not fear at all, the whole thing of torrenting is based on sharing. :dry:
I don´t like the only mention of cheating, sorry.

How to increase you ratio ?

Easy, check the site frequently or use the rss feature and then ... seed seed seed 24/7

Exactly what he says.

Partial seeding is the way to go. :)

I've always managed to keep high ratios that way. Needless to say it is even better if you manage to do it 24/7. In fact, IMHO, if u really want to keep high ratios on a few trackers at the same time ur PC must be on all the time. I don't remember the last time I turned it off..
