    If you were able to download the rare shit, that means somebody else was nice enough to keep seeding it. Please carry it forward.

        Nice. In my experience you’ll get a few hits a year, but enough rare torrents and you’ll be seeding almost continuously

        You are in a fortunate position - you can make stuff available (this is nice and generous) while hardly having to upload anything. Consider joining a private tracker that gives you credit for TIME seeded, not Gigabytes of seeded material. Then just keep the stuff you download in the download folder for a long time before moving it/deleting it.

            I use seedpool - it’s the only private tracker I use and I only use it for the stuff I cannot get elsewhere. It has a convoluted up/down/time ratio and minimum seed time limit of ten days which is easy to stick to. They do freeleach periods and some content is not ratiod at different times - people are committed to it, and the quality is good (descriptions and subtitles are always accurate and in sync), but I don’t really understand it (and am not prepared to spend any more time reading the user guides and forum as it all makes very little sense to me). I seem to have got a good ratio / allowance by seeding for longer periods without actually uploading very much - I do not really understand how or why. It seems to have loads of massive files for films (like 60Gb remuxes) which is a bit of a waste IMO - I avoid these so I am never using hundreds of GB of my storage seeding.
