    I've been using torrents for more than a year, I often feel that it consumes a considerable amount of time, If you have more that 4 or 5 tracker, in which you need to maintain a good ratio. You have be careful in what you download and will it get leechers etc. Not to mention the filesharing forums, People seem to be always online in places like this :p

    Obviously theres little less pressure for users with high speed connections or seedbox.

    what are your opinions?

    Torrenting's not a job ffs, nor is it a game. I don't know why so many people treat it that way
    Open up desired site, search for desired torrent, load said torrent... Takes around 30 seconds I'd say?

    If you find a forum that you enjoy posting in and start posting, it's more of a hobby. Unless of course, you're posting for filesharing reasons (hay guize, need moar posts so I can get eff tee enn?)

    Indeed torrenting is a hobby that consumes plenty of time. Less time for family, friends and other activities...

    How so?, you just download the files you want walk off let it seed for days.

    When you're thinking more about how you're getting the files rather than enjoying/watching/using them, I'd say yes.

    If u like torrent world,than live in torrent.
    If u think that torrenting is killing much time than dont use torrent.
    U can use rapidshare so u download and u dont care about seeding.

    And if u want to be in torrent world than
