Maybe like twenty years ago my Demonoid account had a glitch where it showed my download as a few bytes, regardless of how much I was actually downloading. The number definitely should have been way way higher. Every time I would log on the digits for my ratio would run off the side of the screen.

would you like to know more?

When I was able to seed relentlessly, I aimed for 3.0. Typically, popular things got into the tens or twenties, while rare stuff would get lucky to cross the 1.0 threshold.

Thieves and beggars, never shall we die and all that.

When I downloaded The Last Of Us it would shoot to 4-5 and get stuck there. Meanwhile, I downloaded Madagascar on a random Monday and a week or so later that thing is at 36.0.

It’s totally random.

That’s almost certainly a partial cross seed, but if it isn’t, that’s one hell of an accomplishment.

Thanks Captain 🫡

What’s your upload amount? Ratio isn’t vs the total size of the torrent, so this can happen if you remove a readd a torrent to the client for a file that’s already in the hard drive. Say you download 1kb of a 1gb file, but then upload 10mb you can get some insane ratios.

bbuez OP , (edited )

Most unfortunately overall statistics aren’t exported, the VM had been sitting active on a PC for a while before I turned it off for a few months and wiped it recently

I can say those top ratios were movies I had first acquired, and never had set a seed limit so I’m certain I’ve been seeding the entire file

Insane, my highest is around 100 ratio.

bbuez OP ,

I inadvertently quoted Starship Troopers (which I should download…) which seemingly poked one of nutsacks neurons wrong. My apologies

what are you smoking cause i want some

nutsack ,

ball hairs rolled up in bible papers

Damage ,

Must be from a public tracker

nutsack ,

all you have to do is freeleech some stuff with a new account

Damage ,

To reach 10000 seed ratio? Not quite

nutsack ,
  1. download new torrents with the freeleech tag
  2. seed the freeleech torrents for a little while
  3. download an ebook or something that isn’t freeleech

yes quite. this happens to me every time I join a new tracker.

Sabin10 ,

The screenshot is showing the ratio on a single torrent, not a tracker. The only time you’ll see that is usually if you are the person that submitted the torrent.

bbuez OP ,

Yessir, and frankly I’m caring a lot more for the torrents that are barely breathing on public trackers, its made me a little sad seeing how inaccessible some content can tend to get, but to be fair I haven’t sailed the deep end with private trackers or anything yet

Damage ,

Unfortunately with public trackers you’re mostly helping leechers and debrid users who don’t contribute back anything at all

bbuez OP ,

And lets be honest, a lot of us were once in the boat of at least not being able to seed back. With the content I seed I see it more as a preservation service…

Family and friends requesting even couple years old shows that just arent available in this region or what be it like come on, its the digital age, I can message someone halfway around the world but I can’t watch some movie because someone wants the most nickel and dime. /rant

I don’t expect any of them to know what bittorrent is, if it brings them joy when there may be no other option, that is what this is for afterall
