======Advice for Our Members; How To Maintain a Healthy Ratio======
You should check to see that you have port forwarding set up properly. Your computer is much more difficult to "see" (IE your downloads can be painfully slow, and members have a harder time uploading to, or downloading from your computer), if your torrent client port is NOT being forwarded.
Here is a MINI-TUTORIAL I wrote up on this topic, in the forum: https://community.gaytorrent.ru/topic/29909/port-forwarding-mini-tutorial-updated-11-13-2017A small donation can resolve your ratio problems quickly, while helping us cover the numerous expenses of continuing to host the GAYtorrent.ru site.
Upload your OWN torrent. It's easy to do, (just make sure it is not a duplicate) and then all that upload data credit is YOURS…at least until other seeders join in
DO NOT STOP your torrent nor torrent client, after uploading completes. KEEP IT RUNNING, so you can continue seeding to the next members who want this video, and help improve your ratio.
If it's your FIRST successful upload, you can request to be rewarded with a 600 Bonus Point AWARD(!!!) which can be traded in for 10GB of UPLOAD CREDIT!!! Here's the link to the forum topic that covers the rules and procedures for the FTU (First Time Uploaders) program:
https://community.gaytorrent.ru/topic/7663/first-time-uploader-program-ftup
It also includes the link to the FTU moderator, so you can PM him with the details of your first successful upload (as required, to receive your credit).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://community.gaytorrent.ru/topic/44269/reseeding-a-short-concise-tutorial-about-how-to-reseed
The best way to continue to earn upload credit is to seed EVERYTHING 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 next member who wants this video, and help improve your ratio. While continuing to seed, you'll be earning a bonus point every two hours you offer to seed, regardless of whether other members are downloading from you or not.
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. On most torrent programs, 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", "Ratio", "Peers", "ETA", and Tracker" as essential information and sort-columns. On most torrent programs, 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. You can reposition the columns by clicking (on the column heading) and holding down the mouse button, dragging the column left or right, as desired.
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. Our site runs a bit different than other torrent sharing porn sites, because of the vast number of new torrents that get uploaded every day. This tends to make the "popularity" of new torrents be rather short-lived; thus you need to really choose VERY RECENT torrents to download, to share, when trying to repair your ratio.
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: Torrents which are freeleech will give you whatever you upload added to your ratio… but the size of the movie wont be added to your download, which means that it will only be a positive effect on your ratio (or neutral, if you don't upload anything at all). Do note: if the freeleech timer runs out however, whatever's left on the torrent will be added to your ratio.
Here's the current list of freeleech torrents; They have NO negative effect on your ratio, as long as they remain free leech, however they do tend to have MANY seeders:
https://www.gaytorrent.ru/browse.php?showsearch=1&infl=1After you download, in order to earn upload credit (sharing) you must keep the torrents running, keep your torrent client program running, and your computer turned on and connected to the internet, preferably ALL the time, if at all possible.
You can also perform many tasks here on the board in order to earn Bonus Points, which can be traded in for Upload credit to improve your ratio. If you click on your Ratio: ( https://www.gaytorrent.ru/rationator.php ) you will see many various ways to earn Bonus Points, besides getting a detailed explanation on how your Ratio is maintained.

Pawpcorn, that advice is always good
For those looking for bonus points to convert to 'upload credits, can I make a plea to people to vote for the categories of the torrents they download. I saw one guy this morning who had downloaded over 100GB, worried that he might have his download stopped but he did not have one single category vote point.
It's free, it take just two clicks (minimum) and you get 2 points for each vote

GayTorrent.ruI would add that although people get some points for seeding even if nobody is downloading the file, one gets a LOT of points if someone is actually downloading what you are seeding. The best advice I have for that is downloading the newest FREELEECH files, even if you hate them. Ideally, one would only download movies that either they like or they think someone else would like.
One more suggestion.. if a torrent gets extremely LOW ratings, it might be good for a mod to review those, and decide whether or not to purge them from the site. I'm sure that mods are already purging crap when they find it, but the votes can be used as a flag to videos that the mods might not find for a long time otherwise.

When you have an excess of bonus points, here's a fun trick to boost ratio.
-
Find a torrent that you desire (say from wishlist), that is barely alive / has few seeders.
-
Spend some bonus points to make it Freeleech for all.
-
A second later, start your own download.
Result: You get a desired torrent for free (zero download credit).... and you are "early" in that particular freeleech (good chances of upload credit).
The Exchange page would give you 1 G of upload credit for 100 bonus points. But, with this technique, I can often get several G - plus a free download that I'd been wanting. A better deal.
You do need a proper upload setup in terms of ISP, port forwarding, leaving your client to run overnight, etc.
