This is a good occasion to explain how we proceed with new uploads not being seed or only partly seed. To note that there is still a backlog from the holidays to treat the partly seed uploads.
1. For not at all seed torrents, the uploader gets a standard PM from about 30 minutes after upload. This PM suggests solutions for the most likely reasons. Depending on staff availability, it might take some hours to send this PM (we need more staff, candidatures there > https://www.gaytorrent.ru/jobs.php ).
2. For partly seed torrents, we allow about 24 hours to resume or complete the upload. then we send a PM to resume it. This PM proposes links to guides, to contact the Help desk, the language boards and personalised help. We note the % of upload.
3. A not at all seed torrent is deleted from 3 days after it's upload (backlog here).
4. If a partly seed torrent is not seed from 3 days after it's upload, another PM is send to complete the upload. The torrent get promoted with "~completes?" added to the beginning of the description and the % of upload noted again. (backlog here)
5. We wait until no peer is visible to still trying to download it and then delete it. This is about 1 torrent per day (below 0.5% of uploads)
Of course, if the uploader gets back to one of the PMs and it becomes clear he won't be able to complete the upload, a torrent is deleted earlier.
