      To clarify the reasoning in my method look at this:

      Screenshot 2025-04-16 232626.png

      The fourth torrent down is a prime target for a seedbox. Only 1 seeder and 77 leechers. If they were all to grab to whole thing from your seedbox that would be approaching 20TB! Obviously they won't all grab the whole thing from you, but getting in on this early (It's only about 30 hours old) you set yourself up for a huge amount of potential upload traffic.

      The first one doesn't look too bad either, but given that it's 10 days old now you might find that while nobody has snatched the whole thing yet they might have most of it, so that one I'd check the swarm on to see if it's worth keeping it going. (In this case it's freeleech anyway so if you can grab a good chunk before the freeleech ends then you're still going to benefit.)

        @frostycab I hope it will take a few days I only have 40 days left to get my ratio to 0.8 I'm scared because my account is 10 years old and I can't donate $150. I already donated $100 and used like 600 seed bonus points

        I still don't know how I was able to download a non free-leach torrent when I was restricted seams unfair, the restriction said I would be unable to download anything but free-leach. My bad for trusting it I guess.

          @thor9023 Maybe you started a freeleech torrent and the freeleech ran out before you finished. Any part of it after the FL ends counts against you the same as it does with any other torrent.

          Anyway, keep us updated. I'd be interested to hear how you're doing every couple of days to see how it work out for you. I'm sure we'll all do what we can to help if you haven't got your technique quite right. 🙂

            @frostycab I uploaded 50 Gbs in 3 the 3 hours I had the seed box running so it is looking good.

                Seedbox is the key....

                ive been a member since 2008 plagued with different connections sometimes fast sometimes slow.... seeding was a huge issue for me.

                dudeman suggested the seedbox which i had never even heard of till i was in this forum.

                I went from ALWAYS below ratio struggling to keep up - donating plenty to boost myself.

                post seedbox im cruising.... i went from below to now this...

                Its the only way todo it imo. And it makes the download to my home pc incredibly fast - sheilds my original download ip as well.

                Note - i will still plan on donating occasionally because they do a phenomenal job running this site.

                  @cp2000 before seedbox i was about even at 9tb up and down. Trying to stay in good graces... but my speed wasnt the best. so just in half a month ive been able to download 4tb of stuff ive wanted and new stuff and boost my collection - a lot of past stuff i wanted for ages.

                  Seedbox will fix it. do it

                        @cp2000 I can't even remember how I did it back in 2015 when I joined LOL
                        I know I donated a lot.

                          @thor9023 donating in exchange for upload credit is worth it when you have a new account with very low traffic. Once your numbers go insanely high like several terabytes, it is no longer viable to donate for upload credit because it will barely add to your ratio.

                          Now do as others have advised you, use the seedbox wisely: look for recent torrents with more leechers than seeders, and if those are not available focus on recent torrents with the least seeders. Don't forget to check the freeelech list periodically and make sure to grab all the big collections.

                                Glad it's working out for you. It's awful if you suggest things to people and it goes wrong. LOL

                                  Would anyone have more suggestions on seedboxes to use if you are in different places like the US?

                                      @cp2000 it was indeed the cheapest seedbox i managed to research, i haven't bought a subscription tho. does it really offer 2TB of storage and 3TB of traffic for just 6 euros? it sounds scammy lol

                                        @ianfontinell-0 100% legit... no problems at all... I started with the 2tb 3tb upload... fixed my problem right away but then I bought more Upload data alacarte which u can do up to 10tb i think.... i did that once then i just finally upgraded to the 2tb 25tb upload which fits me perfectly. the slots were limited tho i think they created one more slot just for me because i whined about it hah.

                                            The seedhost.eu is asking for payment in Euros. Does it actually have to be Euros or can you use credit card, paypal?
