Personally I don't have any problems. My ratio is absolutely correct. The only thing is that the torrent is not listed in my profile.

VisiGod won't be around too much during the next two weeks, but we are listing the problems on his "to do" list, so they will get worked out eventually. Thanks for your patience.

my problem with the ratio is following:
my dl speed is faster than the ul speed.
so i CAN'T have a ratio of 1:1
and nearly not 0.75.
i have 1700 kb/s of dl and 512 kb/s to ul.
this is more than 1:3. and when I'm turning down dl to 512 it's verry slow :(
can any 1 help me?
even if I can't dl atm

Why do you think that you should leech ALL the torrents?

And BTW, 512kbps is pretty fast.

Also you can seed smth by yourself.

"When I'm turning dl to 512 kb/s it's very slow". :rolleyes:

I have a maximum download of 105 kb/s and maximum upload of 17 kb/s and I have a 0.68 ratio, so excuse me if I find this statement hilarious.

Keep seeding a torrent when you download it.

I mean, you don't have to, but then you'll have shit ratio and will eventually get banned from the tracker.

Enjoy your stay on metpage.... :D

A 512kb/sec upload is awesome! :o I can only up at 20kb/sec without affecting my down bandwidth!


Your upload is slower than your download, so this means you need to upload longer than it took you to download to reach ratio of 1:1 or 1.0. (and here we only require you to have 0.75 minimum ratio, so it's even easier)

So eg if your up speed is half as fast as your down speed - you'll have to keep your torrent running twice as long to seed your share.

Why? Are you unable to seed back what you download?
here in belgium i have a 12 GB upload+download restriction each month. i used to sometimes download a lossless concert, but only if the upload was not much.

not that i really care that much as i haven't ever really been able to download dvd's/lossless much, but i know there are many people in the same situation as i am...

you don't have any flatrate? i could change to flat when i wanted to but it's too expensive for me.
if you don't know what's a flat rate... it means u can up and download everything up to 50 GB per month.
