i think this thread is a perfect example for why freeleechs have an OVERALL negative impact on the trackers economy... the majority of leeched torrents will NEVER be seeded back to 1:1 ratio nor will they be seeded back period. and anyone saying that there going to seed everything back isnt helping the growth of the site either... 50-100 torrents seeded splits up the bandwidth. it only takes 5-10 active torrents to diminish a users bandwidth. i agree with freeleeches during the first month but it needs to stop... or at least enact a hit n run rule and force torrents to be seeded or else freeleech is nothing but a feel good idea that does not benefit the overall tracker quality.
when it's hard to maintain a good ratio, the quality of the site TENDS to be higher... two examples b*t**tv and oink. the achieves were/are deep and well seeded because it was/is hardER to maintain a good ratio.
what.cd understands this problem and has even talked about it in the forums and the news posts.
anyways. it's a small issue in a world of more important things... people will always love free stuff and will even work harder to keep them free even when it degrades the quality of something.
p.s. dear fan boy/girl and forum troller.. you can post your irrational/irrelevant posts here
