Hey all, I know a lot of people are migrating to private torrent sites, and OK, that’s a choice. However there are still a lot of people on the public torrents who are just leeching and not seeding.
I have several popular (old/classic) movies in my feed that I have uploaded (literally) 1000x the original and many more in the several hundred times. That’s fine, I choose to support the community, but it’s pretty depressing when I look at the seeders count and those movies have 2 or 3 other seeders.
This only works if you share. Please don’t cut off as soon as you’ve downloaded.
And on a personal note, if anyone has audio or video files for “Machine Gun Fellatio” also listed as MGF could you please start seeding in particular
“MGF Pack 1”
“MGF+Pack+2”
“MGF+Pack+3”
If I can get the download completed I’ll keep them up permanently, but unfortunately as they are obscure/rare I’m getting nowhere.
Rules don’t permit me showing the torrent link of course. DM if that would help
I download an iso image via torrent, that a way to “seed”?
I’m not sure why people downvoted instead of educating. To answer your question: no, it isn’t. It has been awhile since I’ve used torrents, so this may be a little out of date, but typically, within your P2P client you’ll have active “seeds,” including while you’re downloading. Some people immediately delete files from “active” after their download is complete. It is generally considered proper etiquette to leave the torrent active (at least) until it you have uploaded approximately 2x what you have downloaded. This helps keep torrents active and relatively quick, while not placing the bulk of the bandwidth burden on a few seeders.
Also… Low seeder torrents. That’d a spot to shine if you got to prioritize. Main stream shit has a lot of turn over.
You’ve had a good answer by letstakealook, but just to expand on one point, you need to leave your torrent application (qbittorrent or whatever) running in the background for an extended period. If you close the app and don’t load it again after you’ve got the download then you’re not seeding - seeding means to share it to others after you’ve finished downloading
