Bah. I seem to share non-stop, but my ratio keeps dropping and dropping.

Is it because I'm ugly?

Of course, what else could possibly be the reason?

Or maybe your definition of share is "Gimmie that damnit. No you can't have a turn."

I have a 4.38 ratio on the site I get my MAME sets from (77.83 GB up, 17.78 GB down). I like to have a surplus because they have a zero-tolerance policy for leechers.

Uploaded 57.12 GB (Daily: 1.79 GB)
Downloaded 16.36 GB (Daily: 523.44 MB)
Share ratio 3.492

Of course, this is at some site which encourages people to seed instead of just leech. Now I can download the whole MAME ROM set without having to share. ;P Though I always does anyway. I usually try to get over 0.5 at least for 'insanely popular torrents' otherwise it's 1.0.

I'd share if.. my internet connection didn't clog up every time..
I seriously find my download speed can drop to under 1kb/sec. I've seen bits per second too. that was.. owch. Considering the non-clogged is about 130 kb/sec down.. 12 bits/sec down seems.. quite the slash.

I would share if I ever used torrents. I've only used them twice in my life, and only because that was the only way I could get my hands on those particular files.

The site I grab stuff from lists me as a 4.442. (17.25 GB up, 4.44 GB down) It would be higher, since I seed up to around a 5 or 6 usually, but the last two torrents I downloaded were horribly unpopular, so I only seeded them to a 1.203 and a 2.868. This is a site that forces seeding, but I'd seed anyway, usually because I'd just leave the torrent client open and forget it's there, while not having the torrents gone yet. Theres also the times I forget to open uTorrent though, making seeding to a good ratio take a long time if I'm not thinking about it.

135GB? I couldn't even fit that on my hard drive.

And if I'm right, you're downloading "MST3K - All Seasons COMPLETE!"

You are correct I have 600 gigs of space (2 300gig hard drives) and a 4mbps broadband connection so I can more than handle it. Sad thing is, mostly due to being addicted to torrenting, I'm running out of room even with 600gig

I almost considered getting a 500gig external on my POS but...a 160 was more than enough considering the only thing I had otherwise was a 60.

Besides, it was for broadband...and I never got that. I'm lucky to use 50 gigs total space right now as it is.

I have a 500 that I've been sitting on for months, and haven't gotten to use at all

Sigh.

If you want to pay me $250, sure.

Aparrently, you're an idiot for not realizing what my post's purpose was:

- Anyone stupid enough to actually take the $250 offer would actually be paying me much more than I bought it for ($170)
- I could buy over 750GB of storage with the surplus (another 500, probably a 250/300G)

Also, up to 11.5GB uploaded. Normally not a big deal, except Cox has an upload limit of 10GB/month. Uh oh.

Normally I'd be kind of amazed except swedish fuckers tend to have much higher internet speeds (also pirates) so it's not that hard to achieve

Most of my bandwidth is used on Nesvideos runs so it's hard to upload a whole lot often
