It depends of the size of the torrent. Especially at ftn there are some packs >100GB that I prefer to not keep for long.

then why ud dl if u knew u would not be able or not wanted to keep for at least 3 days? myself i usually have no need to get every vid in a pack never usually

When it becomes gray (even if you have negative ratio) you have seeded for 36 (or 72 previously) hours and you can stop.

If it is pink you have to keep seeding until it gets gray.

This is like saying every torrent will be available for only 36 Hours, i think long term it will be worse.

I know there are not a lot of leechers, well leechers become seeders, and the more of them, the faster the speed of the swarm, the more ppl will want to use the site.

While i understand the strategy, it will make FTN a 36 hours site, and anything that is older then a day in half, people will go somewhere else for.

dont be idiots guys . its not like everyone downloads stuff as soon its upped at FTN.

Let's see in a week or 2 if there are more leecher's and seeder's
There are 5160 user's and 3000 of them are useing the ftn That's what i think. and the rest just keeping it as high lv tracker ....
