Well, first of all, leeching a lot is not an excuse, secondly, I can't help if others are willing to pay for filesharing or whatever decision they make.
And for my bandwidth's sake, I have a fast connection down, not up.
So you don't have a fast line up, but still ratiocheating 1TB was enough to keep you a healthy buffer allowing you to download, what was it you said? 1TB a month minus the free leech, so at 3/4 counted and let's say half free leech, we still have at least 9TB - the 1TB you cheated, making 8TB uploaded in two years without counting buffer. Bad line my ass.
Or are you just making up numbers as you go along?
note: that 3/4 is for simplicity sake as that wasn't in effect until less than 1 1/2 year ago.
Don't be narrow minded. Other trackers and sources exist too, remember?
Ftn for example, that's the one I use most.
Re: Does ratiocheating cause any damage to a tracker?
Besides the obvious moral side of the question, i haven't seen anyone saying objectively where it hurts the tracker.
here goes: when a user is cheating, it means he isn't uploading what he should to complete his ratio. that means that when a new user joins the swarm to download the same file, it will be the other seeders who will feed him, meaning they will much easily accomplish their 1:1 ratio on that torrent. This all means that for the other users, that tracker is easier to seed on.
and if it is easier to seed on, it's one less reason to donate, so they don't have to buy upload credit.
so the tracker makes less money.
and trackers are about money. or at least they need it too.
and that's how life goes.
Re: Does ratiocheating cause any damage to a tracker?
Cheating is bad, for the torrent, its peers, and the tracker as a whole. The ripple effect doesn't stop when you stop cheating.
Re: Does ratiocheating cause any damage to a tracker?
Interesting subject Menteur. Sharing spirit is important for every tracker.
It would be interesting to see a thread like that in a tracker's forum :P

You either sell what you download or do it for fun, no one can watch/use that much shit every month. Plus you must have a shitload of 1TB HDD's.

Oh I get it.. So those TB's of data you made it seem like you uploaded "to help others" they are nonexistant.
Why didn't you mention before this, that you just rape free leech trackers and your massive download habits had zero to do with the 1TB cheated buffer.
You are quite amusing. You know that, right?

No you don't get it. And they aren't nonexistant.

Because it has nothing to do with the topic. :)

Yes, I'm aware of it thank you.
I can say the same thing about you. At Bcc your attitude is totally different and your posts are tremendously polite in comparison to here. :lol:
