@RimmerDawg:

I'll give you a good example. Microsoft Office has a Windows Version and a Mac Version. They LOOK very much alike.

I don't mean to sound offensive, however Microsoft is a multi-billion dollar corporation that spands its offices throughout the world. Although GT is even more awesome than Microsoft ever could be (for so many wonderful reasons), due to the sheer difference in size, resources, and funding, it is not always possible to support more than the average mainstreem user's typical configuration.

That being said however, I'm sure that a lot of that also has to do with the little known fact that Microsoft owns 51% of Apple.

Is there currently an open source version of the current app that can be made available?

This would allow the open source community to help collectively collaberate and adapt it to fit any operating system and submit the code, etc for approval, or as a "beta" release for the community to post some sort of forum on in order to support it's progress and development?

If such a thing does exist, how would one go about acquiring it to help adapt it to various platforms and submit the end result as a release cantidate. Ultimately, for open source support, a forum specific to operating system could be created as they become available.

@farkme:

i think the user is only suggesting this because hes uploaded less then 10% of what hes downloaded

I have been seeding all of my torrents all the time. It's not my fault no one's downloading them.

Even if you're not successfully uploading from files you're seeding, you obtain seed bonus points by having them seeded. If you click your seed bonus points in the top right corner of just about every window, you will be automatically directed to the area of the website where these points can be exchanged for a number of things. This includes upload, which will bring your upload up, without the need to donate to the website. Alternatively, you also have the option of uploading a torrent, which should help resolve the issue more quickly.

I am having the same problem as ja32….

it just seems like there are tons of seeders and not enough leechers... i left my client on for 3-4 hours last night and barely got any upload... now im just trolling the recently uploaded to maybe get some seeding in but it seems like once i get something downloaded there is a million seeders and no leechers... none of the older torrents im seeding have any leechers...

The only thing that I could suggest to both of you (short of donating to the website) would be be to keep seeding torrents as often as possible, and see if you are able to perhaps find other content that is not on the website to upload. Although the website does not require payment of any kind, you obtain seed bonus points from seeding torrents, regardless of whether or not they're being downloaded. If you click on your seed bonus points in the top right corner, you will be brought to a screen where you can exchange said points for upload. Perhaps this may be a way of helping you in your goal to get enough of a share ratio to be able to download again, without having to donate.
