Oh oh oooooohhhhh, I want in! The sites I do torrent from I have good ratios with. An invite to Oink would be most appeciated: Lynus302@yahoo.com
Ditto DrewP or anyone else that has an invite left. I always leave my torrents up for AT LEAST a 1:1 ratio. tattooedgroove@gmail.com Thanks!
do you guys have to do stuff like tinker with the modem settings? I can't ever get high speeds, what's your usual download speed? Mine is a pathetic 0-100 kb/s
So, thanks to R2K, I've downloaded the 2 highlights so far this year. They sit on my HD as video files. Do I need to do something to get utorrent to recognize these and share them? I've got it open, but nothing seems to be happening. Also, what's the deal with stuff like Gamecube games? How would you download them and move them over to the Gamecube?
djs at excite.com , rodrick_98@yahoo.com ,ftwb2003@yahoo.com These three people have not responded to invites. I will invite the next people on the list if they dont respond in the next couple of days.
Free Pr0n? I've got 20 gigs of music to share. Cslade@houston.rr.com (sure fill my spam folder, I already get 100 a day) (I was in the Cotton Bowl during the Don Meredith years) I did some bittorrent downloads but when I went to open them it asked for a key??? Whats's the deal with that?
I have a newbie question. What if you download an album and leave it up for 8 hours but no one downloads it from you? How do you get your ratio up to 1:1? I got your invite, DrewbP (thanks a lot, btw) but I'm afraid to download anything because I might get booted if no one else downloads it from me. Stupid question, I know...
That's the problem with a lot of these private bit torrent sites. Basically you have to pick your spots. Try to get in on bigger torrent swarms, or on torrents that should continue to be popular. Build up your ratio whenever you get a chance, and keep your torrent client open every time you go online. Also, you want to use "forced seeding" so that your seeds don't automatically stop when you reach a particular ratio. With these private BT sites, it's more important to get your overall ratio at an acceptable level than for each individual torrent to be at 1:1. You can also upload your own stuff (which gives you an immediate ratio cushion), but sometimes it's hard to find stuff that hasn't already been upped by someone else. Good Luck.
what he said.... i leave most of my torrents up all the time. my ratio isn't very great (hovering around a .6), but i make a conscientious effort to keep my torrents open, upload what i can (since so much is already out there), and jump on "hot" torrents. my problem is that the torrents i really want typically dont garner many hits, like a lot of the shows i d/l. and the live stuff, especially lossless formats, typically take up a gig +.
I sent you an email through the BBS. I just now noticed you responded. Too late? Uprising3k@yahoo.com
