Upload status not refreshing.
-
I admit, I messed up, I thought I will just download some torrents and never come back here anymore. I was wrong. So, I'm trying to fix it, from the past two weeks I've download all freeleechs, I torrents that needed more seeders and let it seed. But since them, my uploading status are not refreshing, never. My profile page shows that I sucessfully downloaded the torrents, but it show 0.0 upload, and I know that this is not right. What can I do? ??? :-[

I looked at your account. You're currently seeding 4 torrents, all of which have a great many seeders (for your privacy I will not include the titles):
#Seeders
360
71
178
64With that many seeders, its unlikely you will ever upload much… for example lets say the first file with 360 seeders was a 1.2G file, then in the best case, if a new leech joins and downloads 100% of the file, your share of the uploading would be 1.2G / 360 = 3.3M, hardly anything to get up in the night over. (And perhaps your upload speed is not the greatest... the P2P system is the definition of chaos... with each peer independently deciding who to download from... if they do connect to you, you might not seem like the best choice if your speed is not fast, so they could disconnect and go elsewhere.)
Unfortunately you need to kind of play a game... and get new stuff when there are a low number of seeders so there is more chance for you to upload as new leechers come on. You could have also done the same thing with new upload before you lost your download rights. I suspect right now you're only choosing things you might want... but until your build a ratio... you have to go with what is new and you expect will be popular rather than if it personally interests you.
Don't forget, just by the mere act of seeding you are earning seed bonus points, which you can turn into upload credits eventually. (The best deal can be achieved with 24/7 seeding over 2 months... you will earn at least 600 SBP which you can turn into a 10G upload credit.)
But the fastest way to guarantee some increased ratio is to upload something new. This guarantees you at least the amount of upload credit of the file you upload... and likely some more over time as more leechers come on and some drop off.
You can also donate to the site... and you can earn SBP by finding and reporting dupes, uploading additional [appropriate] pictures for torrents with too few, and by participating here in the forums. If you do upload, you can get 600 SBP from the first time uploader program, and if others like your upload, they may also gift you SBP to say thanks.
Good luck… I'm sure with some more work you can make a repair and become a happy fair sharing site member.
