Racing strategies on a seedbox

[Polarbear]

why don't you start your own groups and compete with each other?

i hate to break it to you but there is a reason racing groups exist.

i know. that was irony - or have you ever heard of a tracker racing group?

[DanielleD87]

no because 1) there isn't enough uploaders to racer to trackers 2) it is hard to race an upload to a tracker. either you up the whole rls or not at all. no individual .rar files. to bad a database doesn't exist for uppers' boxes to announce automatically what rar files are on the box already so people actually can race.. but then at the same time why have that when you could have some sort of drftpd setup between racers instead? ... oh wait that would then end up becoming a dump site. oh snap.

Polarbear, don't knock someone else for having an interest in something. Please keep your negative comments to yourself.

Why is it gay? You prefer to waste your time doing it the manual way because you feel sort of pride in doing so and it's how everyone else does it? Give me a break. I'm assuming you download with the help of RSS, right? You'd probably say that method was gay as well, if it wasn't as popular as it is now.

you are funny.

i reached a certain level where i don't have to make up my mind about those things anymore.

i don't need to buffer accounts with seedboxes, irc prechannel scripts,tracker racing or rss feed downloading anymore.

i just downlad the warez i want and seed them back to a reasonable ratio.

but most importantly: i enjoy my warez. i watch movies and i listen to music. i enjoy hanging around in tracker forums.

you are just transfering data, no matter what. content doesn't bother you as long as you can raise your ratio with it.

you will understand me, if you have all you need.

Someone have to spread the unpopular releases as well.
If no one did that you would only be able to download Blockbuster movies, top 5 tv series, and just for get about finding the programs and songs you want to download. Since no one is transferring them.

And you also get longer lifetime on torrents and increased download speed.
So personally i think its positive that people are trying to transfer as much data as possible with their boxes.
