Increase U/L speed
-
Hello,
I am struggling with this and I have been back and forth with admins on this website. I have such a shitty upload speed and am trying to figure out a way to increase this exponentially. I am a member of many sites and have never had any issues uploading, I have a great connection and this has nothing to do with me, but this website. What can I do to make my upload speeds more efficient?
My ports are open, my torrent program is fine tuned, and I have read many posts on this and still have found no proper answer.
The thing is, is what I have been fighting the admin users on here…I want to improve my UL ratio, but I cannot because this website refuses to allow me to UL more than 15 kb/s, which is sad...
I truly want to contribute to this community, but I cannot when I know I have an UL speed of 15mb/s and all I get is 0.05kb/s...please honestly help me get this fixed.
-
On a side note, I am capable of seeding FOREVER! I just see speeds from 0kb/s to 22kb/s…this is just not acceptable. And I will not accept that these torrents are based overseas and that's why the speeds lack. Because I have been torrenting before it existed. And that is a load of crap.
Anyone remember IRC dayz? I got better UL speeds in '99!
-
I have the same problem. I get a very slow UL speed and my torrents often won't upload at all even though I can see there are leechers.

Hello,
I believe your upload speed will depend on:
-
The amount of leechers on a torrent
-
The connection speed of the peer your are uploading to.
-
Any ISP throttling (limiting your connection speeds) when torrenting.
These are just my theories. Hope they help!

Just a thought i wounder if you use a device abd dmz that device or open all of its ports if that would positivly affect the speed of seeding. Just a thought thoe i just woke up.

I'm having this exact issue, can't figure out how to solve it
Really want to seed but it won't!! -
I upload a lot and my upload speed is 4Mbps so it's almost 500kb/s . I have cable net, I use AVG as my internet security and utorrent to upload. I didn't do anything to my comp to speed up my upload. Usually I'd need 3 downladers for my uploading to start. Sometimes one is enough. But as soon as few people get whole torrent, my torrent stops seeding. Then from time to time it starts again. All I really know how to keep my upload up is by not downloading at the same time. As soon as I start, my upload goes to 20kb/s or even 0. I can use 10% of my whole download speed for downloading, but if I use more, I can't upload anymore. It sucks but I have to choose do I want to download or upload.

On another site I read a thread about how that particular tracker prioritizes seeds. Seedboxes get first priority and there are so many of them on that particular site it's difficult for regular uploaders to seed anything.
I have finally solved my problem on this site. I had to upload my own files.
-
It's true about when you upload your own files but the moment people have the whole file and start seeding then hardly anyone is downloading from you anymore, well at least that's what happened to me…

I try to upload larger files.

OK, will have to try that out and see how much I'll get

Same goes for me. I've been a member for 10 years and I tried ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING to seed to 100% and keep a good ratio. NOTHING WORKED. I tried different computers, ISPs, PORTS, ROUTERS, STATIC IPs, CONFIRMED FORWARDED PORTS OF EVERY CONCEIVABLE NUMBER and OPTIMIZING uTorrent every fricking way under the sun. But with my Mac/uTorrent combo, the absolute best it could do was about 25kbs for uploading (and that was on a very good day). more often it seeded in the 2-10Kbps speed zone. I can and always could seed like crazy as I'm downloading any given torrent, but the very moment it finishes downloading - BAM seeding disappears completely or hovers at less than 20kbps. Requests for help were always on the gruff side - they seemed pissed about everything I hated to even bring it up. And forget about it if you enter a forum topic on the GT/ru tracker on seeding performance. In May Just for the hell of it I tried a random - nono-forwarded port and amazingly I got up to 150kbps seeding - but ONLY for the initial seeding of my own torrents - but that went to ZERO as soon as the torrent uploaded to 100%.
I've only survived the minimum ratio requirement because I spent over 600 hours, creating over 125 new, quality torrents and uploaded them. They were moderately popular - downloaded over +22,000x. I begged for BONUS POINTS in the description of all those torrents, and I guess people liked them and pitied me because I received over 75,000 bonus points in 4 years. That helped my ratio, along with several significant cash donations –those two being the only reason I wasn't booted off years ago. I traded in all those points for download credit.
I've belonged to many torrent sites over the years, and nearly all work great. Out of everything I download (several TB of content) 75-85% of torrents from other trackers immediately seed 1.0-14.0 in just 24 hours - no problem.
I ran a torrent test (ONLY GT.ru content) from June 15-July 16 2018. It included about 50 of my own, all new torrents (that BTW was downloaded over 2200 times in that same month span), PLUS a select series of 50 Low Seeder High Leecher High Potential Torrents (all had 2:1-5:1 or better odds of becoming a seeder). I these 100 EXCELLENT SEEDER POTENTIAL torrents for all 29 days ( I had ONE fluke torrent that seeded higher - but I've NEVER seen that happen before or since. And again, those were relatively popular torrents downloaded thousands of time by other Gt/ru members - yet I was NEVER ALLOWED TO SEED MY OWN TORRENT past 100%.
Out of the 50+ Very High Seeding Potential torrents, 3 seeded to a ratio of 3 and then promptly stopped The rest never even seeded to 1.0 in a month of nonstop seeding despite having 2:1-5:1 odds of becoming a potential seeder. It just never happened. That's been my experience for all 10 years of my membership. I decided on the very last day of the very last week of the until now 100% GT.ru torrent content seed fest - to now add in 50 totally random torrents from 3 other well known Torrent sites. 47 of those 50 torrents not only donlowded completely in the last 24 hours but they also all seeded to ratios ranging from 3.0-27.5 in just 24 hours
I had a stark realization when I was writing up the findings of my study to present to GT.ru staff when suddenly it dawned on me that I had spent over 600 HOURS creating those 126 new torrents and posting them, and over a 10 year span I spent at least another 600 hours F-ing with uTorrent insanely trying to get it to work - which NEVER HAPPENED IN THE FULL 10 YEARS I've been a member. I though 1200 HOURS OF TIME FOR FREE PORN. THAT's NOT FREE. Anyway that day I bought a seedbox and in less than a week and a half I seeded 1.25TB of torrents just on GT.ru. Why, why, why did I not think of this earlier. Who cares - I'm stubborn when it comes to making things work the way they're supposed to. The seedbox cost $30/month for a really good one that allows me to seed at 2-7Mbp/s (2-3TB/month). I will only need to pay for it for two months, then I'll have a spare 3-6TB of download credit to use as needed before reaching the 0.80 minimum. That's more porn than I downloaded in the past 10 years. Duh girl! A) spend 1200 hours of frustration futzing and work creating my all new torrents or B) spend $60 for two months of a seedbox.
Learn from my stupid mistake. Get a seedbox, and chill out. - BTW if even a moderate portion of members used seedboxes GT.ru wouldn't need to impose minimum seeding ratios because EVERYTHING WOULD BE CONSTANTLY SEEDED to 100% or BEYOND
(BTW I have no financial ties to GT.ru any VPN or seedbox service - these are just my own opinions expressed in hopes others may benefit from the knowledge).

UPDATE: When I wrote the frustrated message above, I had a troublesome ratio of barely .80 For a 9 year upload total of 3.2TB that was earned with month after month for nine years of seeding, everything I downloaded to 500%.
Now 1 month of a $30/month seedbox, I have a ratio approaching 3.0 and I have 8.0TB U/L credit above and beyond my total D/L. For me, a guy who downloaded under 3.2 TB in total of all content in 9 years of my membership up to the date I setup the seedbox, so that small sum of $30 for a seedbox in ONE MONTH allowed me to seed 8.0TB of total upload credit…in other words it bought me enough credit to download all the porn I want at my maximum desired rate for a total of 21 YEARS without ever seeding ANYTHING more! (BTW I WILL continue to do my duty and seed everything I download, I was just making a point about the 21 years of free downloading.
This was all possible because with the seedbox I could download and seed high value torrents (high leecher / low seeder - downloaded just for seeding potential (I threw out all the media)) which seeded 24/7/for 1 month with an UL speed of 19.0-22.0 mbps and download at 26-29.0 mbps thanks to the seedbox which was COMPLETELY done on the seedbox servers and so it seeded around the clock at those high spped, whether or not I was even signed on to either the seedbox or GT.ru. Everything is automatic and just works without any help from me. WITHOUT the seedbox, I struggled to u/l at 2-100kps and it took 9 years to seed 3.2 TB of data. Now after 1 month I have 8.0 TB of seeding credit.
Do Yourself a favor and just for a month or so - rent a seedbox, and seed your brains out for a month, and You'll be set for 10-20/yrs worth of free porn downloads too. Check me stats 16.31TB of seeding credit! the neumber speak for themselves. If you do this, you won't have to worry about tweaking your torrent client, opening ports, port forwarding, or babysitting torrent downloads and uploads. It's ALL FULLY AUTOMATIC - just set and go and your golden for $30.

I'm over it.. all other sites get easy uploads of 50 k/bs, from me - not a huge number but it is there… this site im lucky to break 10 k/bs - I just dont get it
I seed for ages.. rarely find my seeding actually does anything
I have even used my credit to freeleech other's torrents, i have downloaded, to see if that helps but nothing..
