Re: How much seeding is enough
Public sites, I honestly don't give a shit. I'll usualy leave it running for a day before it gets deleted from my utorrent list.
Private sites...always seeding. More I seed, less I have to worry about how much I can download.
Ratio: 1.305 Uploaded: 379.28 GB Downloaded: 290.60 GB - torrentleech
Up: 294.85 GB Down: 244.31 GB Ratio: 1.207 - x264
Uploaded: 113.69 GB Downloaded: 56.50 GB Ratio: 2.01 - Demonoid

Re: How much seeding is enough
My ratio is over 9:1 with 60+GB of downloads and nearly 600GB up uploads. I seed because I care...

Re: How much seeding is enough
I usually seed, double of what I downloaded. Just because seeding is what made it possible for me to get it.

I usually try to go at least 1:1, but if it's popular, I've had single files go over 50:1.

Re: How much seeding is enough
For public trackers i limit the upload on all my downloads to 10kbs. When the torrent is finished i remove it regardless of what my ratio is. For private trackers i like to keep it to a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio after that i stop.
Usually if my ratio is getting a little low on E.X. Demanoid i'll make a torrent from one of my DVD's or CD's and add it, i'd rather contribute new media then recycling old stuff.

Re: How much seeding is enough
is it true that the authorities are more likely to nail you for seeding...than downloading?
