@Joker:
yes.. you dont need to donate… also seeding your downloads or sometimes an upload is good support...
i hate the "hit and runners"....
Might I suggest a hit and run system similar to the one I have seen rolled out over at IPTorrents. When you download a file, you must do one of the following:
Seed the torrent for at least 14 days
Seed the torrent until you have reached a 1:1 ratio
Zap the torrent in the hit and run system
If you choose to zap the torrent, you have one of two options.
Sacrifice a set number of SBP (I think it's 50 SBP per zap)
Sacrifice upload credit equal to the amount of the torrent
Also, it should be noted that with this system, if you build up too many hit and runs without dealing with them, your download rights get taken until you fix the problem. As long as you are seeding the torrent, the system does not bug you about the hit and run. It only shows up in the system when you are not seeding the torrent, and continuing to seed the torrent makes it disappear out of the system again. Once you seed it for 14 days or to a 1:1 ratio, or zap the torrent, it falls off your hit and runs permanently.
Perhaps we should roll out a similar system?
