Who uploads to public trackers?

[bikernin]

public trackers manage to have a very large number of torrents being uploaded everyday. i was wondering if they have dedicated teams of uploaders or just mainly rely on the millions on random users that use them. if its the users who are uploading then what incentive do they have? in private trackers theres the incentive of having a good ratio and earning tags. how do they still manage to have so many seeders on popular torrents especially. i know there are many people who seed back there also but im pretty sure theres plenty there who hit n run

There are plenty that hit and run, but just like back in the days of kazaa and napster, people share because they want to help others. I don't upload to public trackers because of where I live, but I used to share everything with everyone just because I could, no thanks needed.
It just feels good to help, and thats enough insentive for some.

yes tokeman as i mentioned earlier there are people who share. i happen to be one of them. but considering the fact that even after enforcing hit n run rules, people still do it on private trackers. so i cant imagine there being so many faithful users on public trackers

Uploading on Demonoid was as close as uploading to a public tracker I've ever gotten.

I mean Demonoid was basically public for a long time,
and its not like ratio rules were truly in effect.

But, I usually filled requests in the forums to help people out.

ermm wat was the point in posting that link??

There are a mix of both that upload to public trackers. Users like yourself and I, and some dedicated groups who like to help others and be noticed. I wouldn't upload to a public tracker. But to each it's own.
