How to get leechers?
-
i only downloaded 1 file, which apparently no one cares about, so my ratio is 0…my downloading rights are taken, so can't seed anything else...is there a place where i can request people to download my file?
cheers

It can be a waiting game if you download older torrents. Stick with brand new torrent on the browse list which have the most traffic.
As I write this, you have already uploaded 1GB, which corrected your ratio.

The ability to seed exists regardless of ability to download.
is there a place where i can request people to download my file?"
This site, with torrents posted and reposted in cyclicality everyday, already serves as that place. What's needed for you more than a 'place' is a 'people'.
Seeding a torrent that no one is downloading is like announcing your file's availability to an empty room. If the torrent is dead, you need to continue the cycle by re-uploading it. This will announce the file anew, and to a much greater audience.

Good to know. Thanks!

Re-uploading a torrent for a file, for which already exists a torrent will be seen as duplicate upload (with the exception of collections).
Our system auto promotes torrents which are announced to be seed and had no download for a long period (understand here some months).
We as well clean manually the torrent list from torrents being identified as definitely dead, i.e. neither the members having completed the download nor the original uploader reacting to a reseed request within a week. However, due to low number of staff working on torrents, that cleaning got low priority.
