    Yes, you can seed for 36 hours and have had no leechers and/or no upload the entire time of that, yet you have fulfilled the seeding requirements for that torrent to give you the green light, which on unpopular torrents when you have been away for a week or 2 is just perfect.

    The difference I see in having a good ratio and a green torrent history is as follows.

    Good ratio proves you seeded back the same amount that you have taken and probably even more then was required, but the flaw here is that it can be achieved by jumping on a popular torrent with a seedbox or of course cheating and then begin just leeching stuff because of your buffer.

    Ihmo this don't show the spirit of sharing as much as having a green torrent history which shows the user is really making an effort in the long run to share to the best of his ability and even if the members ratio doesn't have a huge buffer he/she is still a vital part of the site and most likely has been of help to members who jump on a torrent late.

    - i usually seed my torrents 24/7 for at least a month. this requirement is easy to keep indeed.

    it's cool to learn more and more good things about this tracker

    thank you for sharing these insights.

    Is this green history think useful if u seed every torrent to 1:1

    I hope this rule only applies when u can't seed 1:1
    Live as totally and as passionately as possible,because it is through intense living that you will find the divine.The divine is nothing but the life lived at optimum,with total abandon,a dance danced so totally that the dancer disappears;only the dance remains.Then u have found and u have come home.

    Pls don't make trackers your dream/ambition,There is much more to do in your life!

    True.

    i came from eMule school, where sharing was not a way of enlarge e-penis or gain status, sharing was a way of friendship and pleasure that motivated us for sharing for months or years our files.

    Today, i see with sadness that the first goal of a lot of users is download the faster they can, and quit seeding the quicker the better (seedboxes)

    I have 1mbit upload connection and i seed 24/7, my FTN torrent history has some red points, i have seeded those torrents for weeks and months though.

    If you have no pink line through any of your torrents, they you are all green, the pink line looks like a highlight pen has been used horizontally through any torrent that has not been seeded to the requirements.
