Anyone who manages it to keep 1.0 or above ratio without donating?
-
I can't figure out why I can't keep my ratio up on this site. On another site I use I have a 9.xx ratio. I'm not doing anything different.
None of the torrents in your profile have any leechers, except for the ones that you are the only leecher on. In order to get upload credit for your uploads, there must be people actively downloading them.

same problem here.
-
It seems your torrent client is not connectible, because though you are the only seed for 2 torrents with real downloading peers, your upload rate is zero.
Other possibilities are low client internal priority for those, making others to be seed actively instead (on other trackers).

Freeleeches help. Downloading popular torrents that have a lot of traffic just for the sole purpose of seeding them. If you haven't been voting on your torrent categories (torrents not yet voted), you can get points for that. I didn't realize you could and I went through and looked and I had 300 seed points just waiting for me just from that, which of course, you can use to help your ratio.
mostly though, just keep your torrents active. I have torrents I downloaded months ago, but they're still active. Even if they only seed a little bit every day, every little bit adds up.
you can upload and seed and yeah that helps, but its unnecessary. I've only uploaded one torrent and yy ratio is 1.4 and that's almost entirely from just downloading and seeding.
-
If you really want to bump up your ratio then consider renting a seedbox for a month. I've done it a couple of times in the past when I've really needed a boost. Donating to the site will get you 12Gb upload credit for 20 euros. I spent that much on a fast seedbox for 1 month and managed to upload roughly 3Tb. Definitely worth looking into if you're struggling.

Current ratio: 6.454…uploading and seeding.
That was a few hours ago; during which time I've downloaded a few freeleech items, and made a couple of my uploads freeleech.
Now it's 6.456
Make that 6.457
That was then.
This is now…
6.914…still uploading and seeding.So, here I am…now at 7.373--and I'm thinking...
"Yeah–that's right--I'm the shit!"
Doing that self-glorification thing.
Then I saw this…Ratio: 45.921
45.92-mf'n-one!
Now that's someone who knows how to share!

While that is an incredible ratio- I'd like to point out that it's more possible if you're new on the site, just do one initial small download, say 200mb and then focus on uploading a decent amount- say 11GB. Which is how that ratio was done- at least based on the data shown. ;D
Then after the initial rush, you can proceed to wreck your ratio and do some actual downloading for a change.

Well, the inverted situation is what happened to me. If you check, I sign up to this community in 2014 bc this was the only website that have a Mike18 collection (my obsession at that time). So I downloaded like 11 GB (not the complete torrent) and then my first external hard drive didn't work anymore and I lost everything (movies, porn, music, photos), bc I don't have much space in my laptop and I usually change the OS every few months to try new things. When I finally came back this year I had a big debt and I needed to upload some new torrents of some GB's just to fix the ratio. And now I use seedpoints to change them for GB's of upload whenever I can. It's such a shame I didn't were more intelligent the first time, I could had a big ratio… :blownose:

My ratio is 1.278 and I've never donated and haven't uploaded more than 400 mb. You just have to seed what you download until you've shared the file size (or larger). You don't even have to do freeleech torrents - just leave your client open after the download finishes. I leave UTorrent running on my desktop 24/7 and it's worked for me.

Haha! I was also hunting for rare Mike18 videos when I started here. It's hard to resist grabbing everything at once, but I did manage to control myself and keep a decent enough ratio. Although I think you've managed your own ratio pretty well- it's definitely better than mine!

Well, that's bc I haven't repeat the mistake of download really big torrents again. :police:
And, as I said, every few times that I have reached enough seedpoints, I immediately changed them por GB's of upload.
-
I will admit, I cheated a bit at first with a few donations… 5 Euros here, 5 Euros there... For the last couple of years though I have done it entirely on SBP exchanges and seeding the bajesus out of my torrents.
-
I've maintained a good ratio over the years. I've been on torrent sites for over a decade so I've got it down pat.
When I join a new site I pick a couple torrents that will be super popular and seed the hell out of them.
I also remember having to cash in some seed bonus because they were about to expire or something. -

Seed bonus has an expiration?

#52: “…hard to resist grabbing everything at once…”
#53: “…seedpoints… [for] GB's of upload…”
I became a member solely to download–period--get as much as I could, for as long as I could; and all without giving. Absolutely no thought regarding uploading, other than the thought of not to–hit it and quit it…Share ratio? What the heck is that? ???
Of course, as expected, my downloading privileges were restricted. I was good with that and stopped visiting the site.
When I did finally return, I took the steps to get back into good standing, but still strictly with downloading in mind; and doing so did bring about that change in standing.
Ironically, this also brought about a change in me in relation to the site–one that I never could’ve imagined, and completely opposite of that which I had started. My efforts were no longer on downloading. Now, it was all about the uploading!
Strangely enough–I probably download more in my uploading role, than I did as a downloader. Stranger still, with downloading more from the site, I actually watch less-- the real kicker–I spend more time on the computer than I ever have in my life…at least 70% of that time is site-related!
With just a couple of exceptions, downloads from the site are all for the sake of feeding my appetite for points; and all points go towards making my uploads freeleech.
In a weird way, I’m kind of where I was before I discovered this site and became a member. I’m back to searching for porn on the other sites; but now I look to upload to GayTorrent.ru!
Regarding those exceptions…
Animan–love his cartoons!
Black–not really my thing, but definitely is for my other S.O.
(…and, I do keep an eye out for stuff with clear shots of uncut meat–same with the voyeur sleeping and public bathroom naughtiness! >:D)

There was a time I think they were going to get rid of them.
They ended up changing their minds. -
In the end I broke down and donated
I've been on this site for 8+ years and have yet to support it.
Besides I wanted to finish this huge dead downloads I was working on.
I bet it will take years before I get my upload back on these 25 torrents I downloaded.
But then Who knows? might just get someone like me showing up and finding interest in these things
