I've heard that it's very hard to keep a good ratio there without donating. Is that true? Do they have stuff like free leech?
Since there are 25,000 users I can't imagine it could be difficult to keep a good ratio there :unsure:
Oink has way more users and it's by no means easy for a new user to build a good ratio without uploading.Quote:

Season packs can also give you some nice upload.

For the love of God, do not download an entire season pack at BitMeTV, or you'll be stuck seeding it for a month before you get your ratio back (and I have a 20/5 connection.)Quote:

It is not that hard to keep ratio there, just for the first week or two, don't go to crazy downloading and stick to downloading popular stuff as quickly as you can and letting it seed. From 9:30-11:30 P.M. GMT -5, a whole bunch of new stuff comes up that will help you keep a good ration. Especially on Sunday nights. 4400, Entourage, and Dead Zone are all good ratio givers.
If all else fails, donate $10 and you'll be fine.
Of course not the whole season :) You have downloaded all the shows before and just start seeding them now, or download just some parts of the pack (partially seeding) or download the files from another tracker. Works like a charm )(Quote:

yes they do have a hit and run rule and they've just issued a warning that they are going to take measures to ensure it's enforced because people are getting slack about it.Quote:

in a nutshell:
little ratio boost = (a little seeding knowledge + a little technique) *(a little luck/231)* 10-> raised to 4
an example:
seeding knowledge = 75% ( he knows almost 75% of seeding guides)
technique = 70% ( he used a technique that fits 70% to use in that tracker)
luck = 16% (let's say you 16% lucky that day)
ratio boost = ( 0.75 + 0.70)*(0.16/231)*10000 = 10
you might boost your ratio 10%
:happy: ^^ tested, it works
seeding at BMTV isnt so hard if you know what you're doing.
the trick is to seed lots and lots of stuff at once and to upload your own stuff.
i donated at the beginning to get some credit to get me started, now my buffer is well over a 100gb.
@ adrian1976 : Edit your post. You can't trade invites in this section. Wait untill you will have access to the Invites section, and there you can trade. But you will have to give more than a HDbits or TL :whistling
i donated when i first got there to give me a buffer to operate from and once i was able to upload voila i moved my ratio up
you should only donate for love @bmtv^^ i never had any ratio issues there.. but that might be bc of my immense upload speed :P
yea its really easy to get a ratio on BitMeTV compared to OiNK, you just jump on a popular show and download it and seed it out, i made heaps of ratio off of just downloading the howard stern shows and seeding it out.
I once saw BMTV staff talkin on irc,they wre tellin each other that how much donations they got this week for upload credits and they were talkin about cars.
yeah ofcourse,its not difficult at all...Go after the torrent,the moment its uploaded and be one of the few first to snatch it.
