Wtf.
I downloaded a 58gig file, and I was seeding it the ENTIRE time.
Took like 20 hours, so when I came home and checked, I was banned? wtf.
I know the ration is 1:1, but this is bullshit. I can't even seed it anymore?
Who's got invites or something.
If anyone's wondering, it was my first download. This is retarded.

hahaha hilarious. They autoban new users and most likely just look at the numbers regardless of how many files they were and whether you are still uploading.
I just joined again as I lost my account a while back due to inactivity. If I ever get an invite I'll post and trade it.

I'm gonna play the bad guy here but that was a noobie mistake on a private site to download such a massive file with already having a ratio to support it.

I'm willing to up anyone's ratio by sharing an account. I used to do that with friends on STC until they got shut down. I'll gladly upload constantly at max speeds until our ratio is like 3.00+
i used to do that at STC, until the site got shut down. buddies account was at 0.78 and after 1.5 month I got it up to 2.0.

Uh SpuGen, did you read the rules at all? Or pay attention to your ratio? If it was 58GB I'm assuming it wasn't all in one file, so the safest thing is to only start part of the files downloading, watch/use/whatever them and wait until you've seeded enough to move your ratio back up. Start a few more files, let them finish, keep seeding all the files you have. Repeat as needed til you have everything you want. Quote:

RevTT I didn't like, I had a similar issue but I only dl'd a couple of movies and kept them upped as much as possible but noone downloaded. Meh.
TorrentIt.eu was sweet in that they had some massive freeleaches when people joined so it was easy to get a good ratio off the bat. They're shutting down in 2 weeks tho and invites are being given from Digital Hive, so far DH seems good.

Sad to see them go again but for whatever reason they just couldn't keep the membership up this time around. I always used them when I wanted to download a big file that I knew I wouldn't be able to seed to 1:1.

I think TIt's problem was the small size, with only 14k users (as nice as it is to stay small) most torrent sat with a seeder or so and 1 or no leechers, hard to build up ratios and such. The freeleech helped but on Demonoid I've never had ratio issues and afaik they've never had freeleech since I joined.

It was a site rip. One torrent, with a bunch of files in it.
I've been at 0.36 for Demonoid for ever. Even with seeding it's permanently stuck at .36 for some reason.
My seeding is not the problem. It's the retarded banning system they have. I was on there for like less than 24 hours. It's not even a hit and run since it was still seeding.
Never had the problem with any other site.

One torrent or many, it's a shit ton of data regardless and you really shouldn't start with it, or you could download it in pieces (pick and choose which files to download).
Demonoid's ratio system is/has been broken forever.... And it's not even considered private by other private torrent communities sicne they have NO ratio rules and give out invites so freely.

I'm just wondering if the OP read the rules/faq to familiarize himself with the site and how they work.

freeleech most likely, plus lots of sites start you off with a free 5GB upload to give you some leg room. I found RevTT was faster than Demonoid but the amount of old stuff to be found at Demonoid + the ease of maintaining a ratio made it better, getting a good ratio at RevTT was too hard cause it's all seeders and no leechers.

there's lots of tricks, like on those 52 gig files, you can download a few of the rar's and just let it upload.
or sort torrents by number of leechers, download the one with most leechers and just leave it on.

Some leechers may be partial-seeders i.e. they did what you mentioned with your first point and are seeding a part of the file instead of actually leeching.

^ you'll still be doing some upping to them though. There's also certain stuff that you can tell will give you lots of upping, ie way back I dl'd a crack to turn a trial of a very popular program into the full version. It wasn't a very big file, and I didn't even have any use for it, but people kept hitting it and I got a crazy ratio on it.
