@pdu4:
There are three ways to improve your Ratio:
1. Seed torrents with a lot of leechers, or torrents with very few or no other seeders.
2. Upload a new torrent. Make sure you use "Search" to prevent duplicates, and make sure that you are not seeding or leeching anything else until 3 or 4 others have snatched the complete file. (Read the rules!)
3. The easiest way to improve you ratio is to click on the "Donate" on the top blue stripe. Make a contribution to the site to help defray the hundreds of Euros (dollars) a month it costs to keep this site on the internet.
I don't know how to seed, or upload torrents. However, I am willing to donate some money every once in a while to keep my ratio at its minimum. The only trouble I have with that is that I don't know the monetary unit, or the equivalency of Euros. What would the equivalency 5 Euros be in American $5.00?
