which is the most effective ratio system?
1>no ratio/freeleech 24/7
2>tough bonus points(bcg/fsc..)
3>easy bonus points(ipt...)
4>liberal ratio system (like tl/revtt/thebox/..)
5>strict ratio system (like bitme/tv...)
6>a few freeleech torrents every now and then to help the ratios is all i need

well when i joined in here good old FTN was the only one with freeleech and also every one and including ME wanted to be a part of the tracker....seems like a long time ago

i tot freeleech would be fun its not about not seeding back its more about like not worrying about the number of leechers before i would download an old torrent...most of the old movies i would want might not have leechers and i might not be able to seed back everything i downloaded ....

well after a while there opened a bunch of new trackers the fall of oink triggered everything and every one of those offered freeleech

is freeleech really an effective method to maintain a good seeder leecher ratio and also to keep the members interested in downloading from your torrent
if it is soo effective how come revtt,TL,black cats all these old well established torrent sites would have ratio system.....

i personally think may be these new torrent site must have a ratio system initially and then filter out the leechers from seeders and eventually make their torrent site ratio free like in a year or so....even "the great Demonoid" had a ratio system all tho it was more like free leech.

may be these polls might help in some way i dont know,i am trying to contribute to the trackers because i really care .

A liberal ratio system, I mean we need some order in a community. Or else it will become a jungle.
This ensures the torrents longer life span with some flexibility on the users habits.
