on my question about torrentleech they seem to open their doors quiet frequently so yeah I am planning to enter the next time they do my question is what are the rules actually

  • I found a post from 2 years ago and it says you have to either have a download ratio of 1:1 on the files you download or you seed them for 10 days so my question: is there a way actually to see those stats before deleting that file

  • for exemple if Ic seed like for 9 days will I still get a warning isn't there a threshhold

  • If I seed for exemple everyday for 10 hours and then shutdown my pc like any normal person than do the same thing for the next 30 days with variation in those 10 hours theoratically speaking I seeded for more than 10 days or sould I constantly seed for 10 days like my pc shouldn't shut down cause if that's the case then hate to break it to you but in some reagions electricity isn't stable

  • there is a question I always wanted to ask if you can't reupload stuff in the private repo to anywhere and they somehow will find that out then how is the stuff in the public trackers there in the first place

  • as long as the rules are not 10 days in a row I have no problem doing them since well I already have searxng always running in the background lol

  • to be honest all my torrent usage is that once in a while anime or movie and I usually keep the file until the ration is like above 1 since I don't mind

  • another question are there a lot or qualities and resolutions in torrentleech since if the file is like 20 gb I don't think I will ever reach that 1 ratio I usually go for the 1080p even 720 when the file size is huge + yeah sorry I have 500 gb ssd lol

From your questions I doubt torrentleech is right for you, they can be quite particular and if you get banned they're not very forgiving.

As for the answers:

  • It's visible in the list of your currently seeding torrents visible from your profile.

  • yes

  • they really don't care about your situation. But they don't consider a torrent abandoned by you until it hasn't been seeded by you for 24 hours, though they prefer if you can be online 24/7.

  • they mean the actual torrent file, if that is shared then the whole point of private trackers fail. Big part why all private trackers use codes linked to your profile such that they can easily track if you violate the rule. Also needed to actually ban someone from downloading torrents you already have. As for how stuff ends up there it's generally someone sharing it directly from Usenet to the public trackers.

  • 10 days seed time with max 23 hours "break". Last I checked.

  • there are activity rules for new accounts. So make sure you download something at least monthly.

  • a lot of options but mainly high quality stuff. Not everything is available in the below 2 GB for a movie range. And very little in the 700 mb for a movie range. Better use a public trackers for that.

Bonus. Keep in mind that even if you seed each torrent for 100+ days each you still need a positive ratio. And ratio is hard to build on Torrentleech since so many have blazing fast upload speeds. One "trick" I've done is download a popular release from a public tracker, delete the torrent, point the torrentleech torrent to the same directory and it will think you've already downloaded it giving you no download and going directly to seeding. Just be very sure to not "merge" the torrents because that will get you banned.

so will like me coming back to my computer after that 23 hour mark the torrent will not be seeding for exemple I download inception and for get about it existing after a month I got in a 2 day vacation the torrent will not be seeding after that vacation and yeah that's a weired system

and if torretleech isn't for me and I am surely not gonna get that seedbox you guys are talking about since it's so expensive in my country and I don't have a gb internet connection lol it's 2 mbytes maximum lol then what are the other private torrents that I got a chance with

basically I want a private torrent that I can live in as a person with no seedbox

Dude, you’ll be fine on Torrentleech. If you don’t seed for a few days it’s fine, it’ll resume counting how long you’ve seeded for once you turn the pc back on.

As for ratio, just download the freeleech torrents until you have enough upload to spare. Most large torrents are freeleech (think 30GB+). As long as you’re cautious with ratio when you’re starting out, it’ll be fine.

Thanks thes is good to hear And I guess I will take the strategy of seeding as long as possible to get the points And then use them to fix my ratio And yeah thanks
