i seed it for 12%
i seed for 150%
so, i may be slightly a seeder not very leecher
100-150%
I think it is fair
I dont only leech , seed also but ffs i dont have a good upload :( otherwise i would seed for days/24 hours ;)
I try to get at least 100 percent. Sometimes it's difficult to though.
most the time i seed until there are no more leechers or i need to delete the file bc i am out of disk space!
i seed till 200% or less then 72h
mine is 200% seeding
I seed until my harddrive is full, then I must delete something :(
Being constrained by my upload bandwidth, I usually seed only 1-2 torrents at a time, including when I'm downloading. :( However, I still try to get to 150%-200%. Having recently moved to some private trackers, it's very difficult to seed for that long. On public trackers I tend to seed to only 100% since I don't want to get a C&D letter!
I seed to at least 150%. I've always felt this was a good ratio to aim for.
i also find it hard to believe that you seed 500%, in the private trackers there is always 200 plus seeders and not enough leechers so you never reach the 500% mark. Impossible.
i seed for months at times, still if you are considering that leaving it seed with no leechers thats not seeding and it doesn't give you 500%.
unless you have a way of seeding 500% that i am not aware of and many others are not aware of. i would be interested in hearing about it cause it would be nice to seed 500%.
also you must take into account that some of us have caps on our bandwidth.
and some of us don't.
so i hope that you can shed some light on this subject as some people will be reading that you seed 500% and scratch their heads saying what am i doing wrong, why can't i seed like that.
take into account people bandwidth, leechers play an important part in what you can do and what you can't do.
thank you
I usually seed about 300%/400%
On Bitmetv I Have A Ratio Of 150+
seeding 150 %
not impossible. you've just got to be on the right files... I've got a 700MB file that I've seeded for 6.5 GB right now. it's not too difficult if you leave it uploading for more than a few days.

I just seed until the torrent is deleted from the tracker.
i try to seed at least 100%.
i seed to around 100%, any more than that and your hurting the rest of the sites users who might have slower connections than you but still need to maintain the same ratio
I'd seed above 80% if I could, but at least on my other sources I always seem to find all the torrents no one else cares about. 6 gigs of a last-season TV show that everyone else already downloaded? Yeah, sure, I'll stay on for 2 weeks, no sweat... and get maybe 500mb up :(
It depends on your upload speed. It is unrealistic to expect people with 128kbits/second (which only equals about 16kbytes/second) to seed over 100%.
Personally I try to keep an average ratio of 1:1. This is easy when I download something overnight.
I try my best to keep up a good ratio. Haven't deleted a torrent in about 2 weeks, but a lot of the files I download are pretty obscure stuff, so to get a swarm with even 5 leechers is a difficulty a lot of times. For the sake of community though I like seeing a ratio of 40. on gig sized file. Makes me feel like I'm doin' my part.
All torrents by default I'll leave to seed to 200-300%. Private sites I'll usually leave indefinitely...
I can only upload at 25 kb's so I always try to go like 1.3% or more but sometimes it's really hard.
I plan to seed 500% on some stuff on OiNK. It's going to take months though!
Most of my seeds are at over ratio 1 right now.
seed till my speed drops to near 20kb/s
I don't have a set amount, I just seed till I feel enough people have it to continue. I only have two private torrent accounts (TL and Demonoid), TL with a 4.873 ratio and Demonoid with a 2.52 ratio.:mellow: So I like to consider myself a pretty decent seeder.
i seed until the torrent is dead hehe
well to say it truthfully YES I'm a leecher,, of FTP,News,IRC NOT torrent because I don't use torrent for my main downloads. I do on the other hand seed on many sites helping where I can plus building creds so when I do find something rare I can just grab it with no issues other than hard drive space :) . My seeds run until no one takes any more from me for 24 hours and lately it's been pissing me off because so many torrents die off so quick, even on FTN. I have to keep cycling new torrents to get KBs taken from me UNLIKE FTP that takes until you stop it. TL and TB are pretty steady though. Most of them hit anywhere from 5 - 50 to 1 before they're really dead. TL and TB stay up and running for quite a while, wish all of them did. As far as I'm concerned if it's taking 10 or more KBs I'd leave it running for ever beings my p2p box stays up 24-7 heh all of them do.
If I were able to leave a 25 or so torrents running at a time then there'd be no problem, one would die while the others pick up and so on but either my ISP or modem won't stand for it, if I run more than 10 the dam modem will constantly disconnect till I shut them down under 10.
I noticed on a few of the trackers that had freeleech had a lot of problems with people doing that lame ass hit n run crap NOW That's uncalled for, that's almost as bad as lame ass cheaters :angry:
I can understand it when the site doesn't have enough leechers to make the 1 to 1 quota but so what just leave the dam thing running for 72 hours and your done. To many locations on the net to get shit full leech and much faster than torrent so there's no reason you have to rely on them for ALL your releases. Tracking can be just as much fun as using the stuff you get just takes patience!!
I think, like most folk i'm more committed to seeding on private trackers... Although i'm thoughful when there's only a couple of peers/seeds left...
i seed to 150% always
i seed 50 g in the month
Just keep your torrents running long enough... on even the smallest and largest private trackers, you'll reach Ratio 4-5
1st of all it's hard to say how much you seed cause it depends on the time when you get the torrent. if you get an old torrent with 4 seeds that was completed 214 times i am sure you will not seed it until 1:1 cause this might take ages ...
i had 16.0 seed ratio at some torrents cause i was the 1st or 2nd downloader...
regarding oufy's "i seed 50 g in the month" ... what's your point. if you seed 50G and download 100G then you have an average 0.5 ratio. i seeded 50G in some days but sometimes it was a 1:1 ratio/day... sometimes even lower.
It all depends on what you download. I don't download major releases, I like the straight to video garbage, so while everyone else is getting 500% on the hottest ticket at the box office, I download a crappy action movie at 700mb and upload 49.6mb and the upload usually stops within a few hours of finishing the download. When I download an episode of my favourite tv show at 350mb, no matter what the season, I can upload 5gb if I leave the client running, and usually do until I want the bandwidth for something else.
For me ratio doesn't matter, my client statistics say I have only upped 50% of my downloads, but for me its all a matter of what people want, not because I don't seed what I leech. I can't help the fact that apparently only me and the original uploader are the only people who like godawful straight to dvd dreck!

Current stats are
71.73GB down
99.34GB up
1.384 ratio
I also got a new Sata HD a little while ago or else it would be higher if I had original stats i would provide them
Up/Down would probably be in the TBs.
