Hello! New to the world of Torrent
-
This is all so new to me - I guess my first torrent was a large one, 1.5GB, and my ratio is already all outta whack. I need advice for setting it right, maybe some popular files to seed?
EDIT: Found some beginner tips in the forums, working on fixing my ratio

Here's some other information that might help you get a healthy ratio quickly:
========Advice for New Members; How To Maintain a Healthy Ratio=====
If you ever wish to earn upload credit for reseeding videos (where you already have the video on your hard drive), the illustrated procedure is here: https://forum.gaytorrent.ru/index.php?topic=6539.0Rule of thumb: Seed, seed, seed; seed anything you download, forever. This means DO NOT STOP your torrent nor torrent client, after downloading completes. KEEP IT RUNNING, so it can seed to the the next member who wants this video, and help improve your ratio, while doing so.
Keep a very close eye on your Ratio, since it will take considerably more time to UPLOAD than it did to download. I would suggest you activate certain columns in your torrent client, so as to keep a close eye on each torrent statistics, in the future. You can right-click in the column headings and choose additional columns to be able to view.
I personally recommend "Name", "Size", "Done", "Added on", "Status", "Completed", "Down Speed", "Up Speed", "Seeds", "Peers", "ETA", and Tracker" as essential information and sort-columns. You activate these headings by right-clicking on the headings, and selecting and de-selecting your headings, as needed. You can also re-size the headings, by clicking and holding down on the right side of the heading, and dragging it a little bit to the left.
Initially choose only new torrents to download that seem popular, to insure that you will have others downloading (from you, to raise your ratio) after you finish.
Freeleech Torrents can be downloaded without affecting your ratio.Even with download rights taken away, you can download any freeleech torrent, as long as it stays freeleech:
Here's the current list of freeleech torrents; They have NO effect on your ratio, as long as they remain free leech, however they tend to have MANY seeders:

It is sometimes difficult to get your ratio up but a good start would be to keep seeding those torrents you have already downloaded

Good luck and welcome
