stfu i'll stab you
You're alone.
I dunno, but every time I see a noob come on here giving away or trading away an account(s) with 2TB buffers, etc. I can't help but think they all cheated to get there.
I have a 1TB buffer on TL, but that account is 76 weeks old as well. My next highest buffer on any tracker is probably Blackcats with 100GB buffer.
Yea those 1TB buffer offered by members from countries where adsl is barely available always sounded dodgy to me as well.
/back to topic: i've never cheated because it's totally against the all idea of the BT protocol and it's never been a problem for me with 2Mbits UP to keep a ratio above 2 even on the most "hard to seed" trackers.
There's like three cheating threads going at the moment :blink:
Giving away a TB buffer does seem mighty suspicious. Why would you want to get rid of an account you worked hard to build up. In my case I'd have to cheat to build a buffer like that as I live in Australia and our connections suck. which is why all my accounts only have a few gigs buffer but that's enough for me I only want what I can use.
bunch of fucking pussies
if it helps, i'm not aiming at those hyper crazy cheaters
i'm talking about cheating just to help you get rid of a warning, or help your ratio, you know, the cheating with valid reason
should have made this a poll
if your connexion sucks and you're too lazy to seed back the porn pack you leeched stick to newsgroups or go hit'n run on KaZaa
nope, being accused 1-2 times though :(
lol don't think this thread is going where upGrayde was thinking
Aussie connections are not as bad as you might imply. The 1Mb/s upload speed is more than sufficient to get at least a 2:1 (upload:download) on most trackers (including ScT). And I agree with you that it's more than enough to maintain a good buffer to be a good user.
The TB buffers that people offer are mighty suspicious, especially the relatively new accounts. Even with seedboxes it's highly improbable to get those huge buffers in such short time (few weeks or in some very stupid cases, few days). You probably need a combination of freeleech and x2 uploads to get close realistically...
I can only think of two reasons why a user would cheat so much for these stupidly large buffers (TB buffers):
1. e-penis
2. As a result of tracker trading and trying to obtain something "ranked higher".
Reasons for "normal" cheating (GB buffers):
1. Curious on how cheating works and just tried.
2. Used as an easy escape route to dig themselves out of a negative ratio hole.
3. Just a bad/lazy user.
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A VALID REASON TO CHEAT!
Personally I have never cheated and have never felt the urge to. Defeats the whole purpose of bittorrenting and sharing in general. Cheaters deserve the harsh punishment they get.
I never cheated on any tracker and never thought of doing this
What's the point of BT if we didn't share ... Sharing is Caring.
That dude Skyzo or whatever had like a 4:1 ratio at oink before being banned. A reason for him to cheat would be because he is pissed at oink so he gets even by cheating.
Hmmm other reasons to cheat
-To see if you can
-Your connection sucks
-You have no hard drive space and want to burn your download
-
I doubt people cheat because they are lazy and don't feel like seeding back.
yeah that 1mbit cap really annoys me, i get like 13mb down though :P i guess im closer to exchange than you.
anyway, 1mb is better than alot of arabian coutried that have 128up, thats why those countries get banned and thats why they cheat, its not that they dont want to upload (probably) its just impossible on such bad connections
Cheating is for losers that don't understand the spirit of P2P!
Burn them all.
i have never cheated ..and hitler never existed
am pretty sure 90% cheats but doesnt want to admit it.. i mean they all have huge buffers at TL and sites with no anti cheating script ..but when it comes to oink its a totally different story
^ yeah but oinks also hard to seed at because the files are mainly small (albums - 50-100mb)
Yeah OiNK is a little harder to seed than most. But that said you can upload your own files and it's very easy to keep a ratio. Just upload a few nice FLAC albums and you're set. My OiNK buffer is comparable to the buffer on my regular trackers this way. Love my OiNK FLAC files :).
yeah im on tpg
30gb :( hopefully going to the 150gb soon if my mum stops being a cunt rofl
soudns good JA,
but tpg 150gb for $70 :O
110 of that is off peak though :P
even so, thatd be alright for me, id schedule things, or just start before i goto bed
I have 128Kbps, I had to rent a server ( vectoral ) for 2 months and buffered my bitmetv,bitsoup,torrent-damage account and I got banned from blackcats because i upped too much ( 80gig in a file with 1 seeder and 400 leechers )
cheating i think must be not tolerated.. and nobody likes cheaters.. so this thread i think isn't interesting..
