    It depends of the size of the torrent. Especially at ftn there are some packs >100GB that I prefer to not keep for long.
    then why ud dl if u knew u would not be able or not wanted to keep for at least 3 days? myself i usually have no need to get every vid in a pack never usually

    When it becomes gray (even if you have negative ratio) you have seeded for 36 (or 72 previously) hours and you can stop.

    If it is pink you have to keep seeding until it gets gray.

    This is like saying every torrent will be available for only 36 Hours, i think long term it will be worse.

    I know there are not a lot of leechers, well leechers become seeders, and the more of them, the faster the speed of the swarm, the more ppl will want to use the site.

    While i understand the strategy, it will make FTN a 36 hours site, and anything that is older then a day in half, people will go somewhere else for.
