Hello,
I don't often upload (mostly for fear of doing something wrong and am a relative newbie, but I am trying to build my ratio so I recently uploaded a large directory to share. I am positive that I am the only person who has these files on this site.
I uploaded the torrent and a few hours later my program (Transmission) showed me I had barely shared the size of the files once over with one person. Yet, when I checked on the website, it showed that my files already had 63 seeders and 30 leechers. Can someone explain to me how this is possible? Or did I do something wrong?
And further, if it is really true that 60 people are already seeding this, isn't it a little unfair to the person doing the original post (and going through the trouble of setting it up, sorting out pictures, text, etc) that they only get the ratio improvement of having shared it once while others may have shared it more often? Don't get me wrong, I am all for sharing, and I have certainly profited from it in the past. I am just thinking that somehow it is a little unfair to the original poster. I'd be interested to hear what you think. Thanks

How to make a re-seed request?
Hello, when I am trying to make a re-seed request, the appropriate button does not seem to be active. What is the requirement for making re-seed requests? I can't seem to find the information in the FAQ or in the Forum.
Thanks -
RE: Security code/too many requests not working
Thanks, you are a super moderator
I refreshed the page and entered the new code. Despite saying the code is incorrect, the torrents now download again!
Didn't realize it was so easy -
Security code/too many requests not working
Hello, I recently downloaded a lot of stuff but still have a ratio of almost 1.
Now, everytime I try to download a torrent file, the site says "too many requests" and asks me to enter a security code number.
When I enter the number, it says the code is incorrect.
This happens everytime for the past two weeks.
What can I do?
