it's injecting upload that does not exist into the system. the same thing happens when a tracker sells upload credit to users.

one is permitted, one is not.

Laws are written from people with power. It's like the credit system. When you get credit money comes from nothing. They are not existant. But after you get them to buy something you pay with interest and this all goes to people that are on top of this cycle :/

We are slaves to law. Nobody can tell if this is wrong or right that's for sure

I dont really know much about this sort of stuff, but really as I see it, its their tracker, tehy can tell us what to do. If they want us to download ten GB a week then so be it, tis their site, their rules, if we dont like it we dont have to use the site, no?

There's only 1 thing 2 say....

if u use ratio cheeting I don't think u deserve 2 be a torrenter cuz u simply ignored its basic rule; SHARING!

it doesn't matter if it causes any damage 2 the tracker or not!

Too much sharing (seeding) hurts users because it is unfair to newcomers. Too much cheating (leeching) hurts users because it creates poor speeds and dead torrents.

Leeching would be healthy for the tracker if it ameliorates the issues of widespread over-seeding. However, to take it upon oneself to cure the tracker of its ailment assume the rewards of doing such is extremely narcissistic.

Vigilantes should be punished, not justified. The people pay the government to represent and protect them - not you. You have an issue with the state of affairs - legislate. This is no comic book. You are no hero. Good day, kind sir.
