Like normal people, I seed
Seriously, I seed as many tima/torrents as I can.
Actualy, I don't care about High buffers, I just want to keep my ratios >1 and be active at some forums.

I grab new torrents that will be popular just to seed back if there is nothing I want to watch.
Partial seeding and using rss is a good way to increase ratios. I myself use mIRC on my seedbox with a autodownload script thats starts downloading a torrent the second it is announced in the irc pre channel.
I personally have you can increase your ratio dramatically if you seed those free leech torrents.. The ones which don't count on your download but only on your upload..
seed till you get the best ratio of that file as said above!
Just like most, I either jump on all the new popular torrents. Partially download it(about 20mb or so), and then let it seed. Or I like to download all the files off of newsgroups(since most shit hits there first), then just reseed it to the sites. That way no download amount goes onto your account.
Plus, I"m not a collector. I don't have ten to twenty sites(by my choice, there's no need to have more than just a few). So with the four to five sites that I use, and focusing on each one a couple days at a time, you can get a nice buffer this way.
The way I do it is get a single large torrent that is very popular and seed for a really long time, that way you get a good ratio. The other ways mentioned like getting a torrent from an alternate tracker and helping seed the same torrent on a private tracker works good also.
Free torrents or free leech periods can help you get a good ratio as well.
I find that it's difficult to seed sometimes on certain private trackers. Downloading a small amount of many torrents helps a lot. That, in addition to keeping as many torrents open as possible while leaving your computer on to seed for long periods of time is the key to getting a good ratio.
