One thing to have in mind is that all my servers have 1Gbps connection each

When I upload I seed until atleast 10 more seeders are in the mix. But often seed more than I have to on a download I'm snagging, atleast the same of the download size to give back, sometimes double that, all depends on what I have to do on my puter at the time, I usually seed atleast until I wake up and get home from work, but my up speed sucks, so it all depends.

B.T.W. I'm in america and we have no cap here unless it's a cell phone.

Problem is that most DSL and cable connections suck for upload speeds unless you pay extra I pay $24.99/month and get 16 gigs down but only 768 Kb up. So uploading really sucks for everyone leeching. Ii is what it is. Happy with my download speed though!!!!

Happy thanksgiving to those who celebrate it as well.

Keep seeding folks, and have a blessed night. Smile

Just to answer that question: I seed till 1:2 on downloaded torrents.
But if i want to keep my own torrents alive, i guess i will have to seed them forever.
My uploads are mostly not very popular, so i have to keep them running if i want them active.

Exclamation This is the stuff dreams are made of Sleepy

[edit] Forgot to answer! I typically seed for a long time (months) anything that won't get me a notice from my ISP and has a low seed count (10 is about the low limit), and I don't download anything else. Huge downloads I may bring back out of external devices if I see the seed count low, or download straight to an external with this in mind (such as the Biggest Manga Collection). Everything else, I get to 1:3 then stop. Basically, the more it hurts, the more I help.

I have decided after two notices that limiting upload isn't a solution, and if I can't share it without worry, I need to find it from another source. MP3's from youtube, etc.
