Thread: How To Build Up A Good Ratio On Registered Trackers

Ok, so you've joined a registered trackers, and you've noticed there are consequences if you don't have a good upload ratio. People who have not uploaded a sufficient amount (usually 8gb) have to wait a period of time for newer files (upto 48 hours wait).This can be frustrating, as speeds become slow, you have to wait a long time to get those files, and you risk being banned for a low ratio.

Ok, a technique I'm going to teach you, is a special method to build a big upload ratio.



Ok, imagine a torrent. Where there are only a few seeders, and a hell of a lot of leechers, if you could grab those file/s, you could seed for quite some time which would pay off as far as your upload ratio goes.

But to get those file/s, you'd have to download them, which we all know put's a big dent in your ratio. There is however, another way. On most torrent files, files are split up into WinRAR volumes. Usually consisting of 50mb. If you could get a few of these volumes, you could seed these for a very long time (depending on the number of leechers).

So, here is a picture of two torrents which have a high number of leechers, and a low number of seeders:


Ok, now. If you download one of these torrents, you should pick one or two parts :


You will have to find out how to download the files of your choice only, on the client you use.

Now, after these files have downloaded, you will immediately start seeding to all these leechers. Leave it on for say.. a day. And you will have probably seeded over 1-2gb. If you keep using this method, you will build a really big ratio!

And it can be done whenever you want, regardless of your ratio. Also, I know it is frustrating because torrents which have a high number of leechers, are usually newer files and so the delay comes into play again.. but if you keep an eye open, or even set it so you can view ALL files, and sort them in the order of number of leechers, look for one without a delay on you, are you're all set to go!

Hopefully you can build up a big ratio with this guide! Enjoy!

Thanks for the info, I am still new to the "tricks" of obtaining a good ratio on a new site.

Edit: Mixed my thread messages between tabs.

torrents which have a high number of leechers, are usually newer files

But in this case those two torrents were uploaded more than 5 years ago and snatched less than 10 times. This tells you that those leechers are just partial seeders. This guide shows the benefits of partial seeding but after you have downloaded your selection you will have just joined the number of leechers with hardly any chance of uploading.

I don't disagree that partial seeding is an effective ratio buffering tool if a torrent is new and popular like you said, otherwise I couldn't support this method of downloading by seed/leech ratio as there are other factors to consider before snatching (like when it was uploaded, number of snatches, and especially the torrent size, and if it's a pack).

I think this is better for those with poor bandwidth.
