Re: Stupid ammount of people using seedboxes
jesus were there like 40,000 leechers?
Re: Stupid ammount of people using seedboxes
So what ?
Are you just opening a thread to tell us that there are alot of people using seedboxes and this is not fair
this is really ridiculous , Do you think that your thread is going to make them stop or something ?!!
Just seed like any other torrenter or get a seedbox
btw , I don't have seedbox
Re: Stupid ammount of people using seedboxes
This has been discussed many times, and I doubt this thread will produce a different outcome of the debate.
Re: Stupid ammount of people using seedboxes
the idea is to make a really good ratio,buffer your accs a lot,like 1 or 2 TBs and then when you dont have it anymore you can download without thinking about your ratio

Im sorry but its just stupid. Its unfair on normal users trying to keep a straight ratio when you get so many numbnuts just trying to get a bigger ratio to trade there account for a l33t account of something. :ermm:
ScT is an exception, it's not tracker to leech ur home req.s dude, even the staff there say that clearly, just consider ScT as a big contest for hard core torrenters
Re: Stupid ammount of people using seedboxes
There's room for everybody in this world, and if someone wants a seedbox for whatever reason, and there are more reasons than just buffering accounts, then that is their choice, there is no law that dictates how you get the files to your home PC, just that you can.
As long as you share and give back what you take however you want to, then that is your choice.
Have a nice calm day.
Re: Stupid ammount of people using seedboxes
As a Matter of fact its very hard to upload 1:1 even if you dl a 4:5Gb movie with normal connection

Not all buffered accounts are for trading some buffer for trade yes other's epenis or freeleeching from their home connection once buffered huge amounts they can leech what they need and continue to seed without having to worry about their ratio so don't always just lable it as trading that just shows simple ignorance. i understand on you're part it's unfair unless the site rules say not to overseed there nothing really that can be done i have managed quite fine with my home connection up untill lately but i still manage and my upload is not even 1mb it just requiers the user put a little bit more effort into it now
Dude, short sentences are sometimes easier to read! :P
Also, @op, check sct news, i think you will be pleasantly surprised. As of today, it's an even more home friendly site :)
:wub: ScT :wub:
Re: Stupid ammount of people using seedboxes
If you complain that seedboxes are unfair on normal users, maybe you should drop back to a 56k modem so you're not being unfair on all those who can't get broadband.
Seedboxes are what give you your faster downloads, and help torrents work the way they were designed to work. They were not designed to leave people waiting on a slow seed just so he could get his 1.0 ratio, they were designed to improve download speed and reduce the amount that needed to be uploaded by the initial seeder.
Perhaps a better use of your time would be to find sites less concerned with ratios.
