i dont need a seed box, i just download what i need or am asked for. i have been using btorrent for years and have great ratios on all my trackers. i just seed 24/7. if i download something i want with no leechers i just make my ratio up on another torrent with lots of leechers - easy.
i doubt a lot people with seedboxes even know what they have downloaded let alone use it. just obsessed with buffering there accounts without ever using them for the reason they're there.
1mb/s is not even close to the average speed of home connection upload, get back to reality.
I can not get passed 20kbp/s which is lame and impossible to set a 1:1 ration on most sites.
i think you are wrong....for ScT you need a seedbox i wouldnt be able to last with my 6/768 connection
I have sct, and I survived just fine with only 40kb/s upload, then they gave me up to 80kb/s upstream. Hell, I even got ~100gb buffer over a period of time before the speed increase. Now with only 0.75% of dl counted, its easier then ever! Thing is, you can't just go crazy dling anything and everything. Seedboxes are only needed for those who can't control their download habbits, or uploaders.
you are wrong.. i never had a problem with the third of your connection ;)Quote:

you only have to pay attention to what you are doing the first weeks on a tracker. after that your ratio should be good enough to download what you want, when you want or the tracker just isnt for you ;)
I don't see the point of discussing this matter. How many times have we read here about this exact same discussion...
It's inevitable that different people will voice differing opinions, invariably right in their own ways.
A seedbox is good to make fast buffers, whereas home connections of average quality in any civilized nation (with, say, 1mbit upstream) work for slow buffer creation.
Yes, some sites make buffer creation difficult (BMTV, BM, and so forth), and yes, the seedbox helps make it easy.
Anything here we didn't already know?

NO you don`t need a seedbox on any tracker .. hmmm maybe on bitmetv :D
is very hard to seed in BitmeTV our SCT so need SeedBox...
Not true. It's all about not grabbing everything in sight. Get in early on a torrent. Make sure you are fully connectible (I see a lot who aren't). If there are free leeches on a TV pack or movie pack (grab those and let them run for X amount of days,weeks etc.).Quote:
