Thread: HD-Torrent Bonus Points Problem

Hi all,

I am a member of this tracker for almost two weeks. I managed to upload about 600 GB and keep my ratio good but the problem is the bonus i got is very low compared to amount of my upload. (less than 100!!). i upload my files 24/7 using seedbox. Their bonus system says that for every hour that the system registered you as seeder, you recieve 0.1 bonus point.

am i missing somethng? in other HD tracker i was able to collect good bonus point but here it doesn't look like that!!!




Thanks in advance for you help.

Apparently it's not the amount of uploaded GB's that's recorded by the bonus system, but rather the amount of time spent seeding. That's basically 1 point per 10 hours, or around 33 points per 2 weeks seeding. The question is if the bonus points are recorded per hour and per torrent? E.g. two seeded torrents would get you a total of 2 points per 10 hours etc.

seeding maximum 10 torrents are allowed which means that may be you are right. I use 150 GB seedbox which limit the number of torrents which i can seed simultaneously. Interesting point is that for getting invites, you need 1000 points which takes ages for me!!!

Ok, in that case I think it depends on how many torrents you are currently seeding. If 10 is the maximum amount, you shouldn't be able to recieve more than around 330 point per two weeks. Yeah, getting invites can be a bit of hassle on some trackers (6 or 7 weeks if you seed 10 torrents 24/7 in this case), but I guess it's all for the best, and you'll get there eventually.

Anyways, to answer your question I doubt that there is anything wrong with the bonus system :)

That makes sense becuase I normally seed 3 or 4 torrent at the same time. In some cases i read that seeding bigger file is better to get bonus point. Is that right?

That might be the case. ScienceHD has a system where they divide the torrent size in MB by 72 hours (every 72 hours seeded earns you credits). That way, the base rate of bigger torrents (up to 1GB) gives you more credits per 72 hours than smaller ones, and HD-Torrent might have a similar system.

I added a bluray file to my torrent to see how it works. May be in this situation, i can earn more bonus. By the way, thanks for information

As far as I know, the size the torrent seeding files do not matter.
You only get 0.1 bonus points per hour per torrent (seeding only).
(Up to a maximum of 10 torrents. So up to 1 bonus point per hour.)

Yes, it takes a long, long time.

enderinvite is right; it doesn't matter how large the file is as long as it's complete and you're seeding it, you will receive the seedbonus. So seed 10 smaller files to save some space on your seedbox.
