    Mike,

    As a torrent downloader myself Im going to have to disagree with you on some points of this method, especially when using TL like u are. Ok here it goes. Lets say you use your method and after 1 day (a full 24 hours) you have uploaded 2 gbs (which would occur with a 40 KB/s upload am i right). Ok so lets say the next day you want to download a movie, a 2cd 1.36 gb movie. For me, if heavily seeded, these movies take about 30 minutes to download. That leaves me with only a decent ratio for 1 day of uploading and 30 minutes of downloading.

    Can you see how this doesnt really work? especially if you want to download a lot. Feel free to tell me how you feel about what i have just said.

    Edit: I have seen people do this method with the .avi samples that movies usually come with.

    That's really upto whoever. It's a guide on building up a ratio. Wether you want to download straight away is upto each individual person. I see where you are coming from, however I think it helps when people don't jump onto new torrents with a low ratio, otherwise they get themselves into trouble ratio-wise.

    If you really wanted to cheat, you could just do this: http://i'manidiot.com/ But, you're just hurting people like yourself that want to download. I haven't used any sites where I considered cheating, but I guess if some of you have then there must be something cool on them.

    p.s.
    1) For some people it's easier to seed than others i.e. a faster connection - and some of these people REALLY seed.
    2) The more upload bandwidth you use, the less download bandwidth you have.
    3) It's almost common knowledge that if someone posts a torrent it's their job to seed it well enough to get the ball rolling, it's also dumb to think everyone will seed 1:1 -- that's like wishing for world peace.

    Last I heard it was patched on pretty much all sites.. but I agree, I would take it out, not something you want users to do.

    Sorry! But you don't know who you could be sending them to. I'm not saying you're the MPAA :p But just to be on the safe side, I only give them to friends.

    If you want a high ratio, it's good. If you are worried about the moral side of it; then this method isn't for you.

    BTW Mikey, thanks, never new about this! No wonder the TL ratio is high :p

    Get in early..and then stay on it. Keep a few small things uploading until they really have died, then always keep a weather eye open for people crying for seeds...

    That's how I have a ratio well up everywhere I use...

    Yeah it is. But it's all good if you're OK with immoral cheating n stuff ;-)

    Lol, yeah there is lots of pr0n on that site...

    I don't think there is a "torrentsoup"; there is a "Bitsoup" though...
