>he doesn't seed torrents that are close to dying
Why?

>>105613840 (OP)
im selfish

>>105613840 (OP)
I live in Germany where torrenting is punishable by death so I try to minimize my exposure as much as possible despite using a VPN.

>>105613899
just use private torrents, private ddl and private usenet

>>105613840 (OP)
I have to share my bandwidth with other people and I rawdog all my torrents since I'm unemployed and can't pay for a VPN, it simply makes no sense to seed torrents in my situation.

>>105614013
you have a valid excuse

>>105613840 (OP)
I only seed on private trackers

>>105613840 (OP)
because I hate everyone and I would rather take than give a single byte of data in return

>>105614045
loser

>>105614842
thanks for letting me use up your bandwidth though

>>105613840 (OP)
Because I download my tranime, watch it and delete it, I don't want to keep it on my computer for months. Even more so for game installers

A few days ago I woke up to find a torrent that had been dead for almost a year had finally completed.

I'll let you in on a little secret. Most of those torrents with 0 seeds are still alive. You just have to connect and wait for whomever is still seeding it to notice.

>Eternal 0 (1)

99.9% of all public torrents, initially comes from private trackers.
Here, in the depths of hidden and obscure sites, all torrents are well seeded by seedboxes, and continue to be kept alive.

Knowing this, you may sleep better at night.
Data is being archived, it's just done privately, and once in a blue moon you'll see a spec of dust fall from the private to the public trackers.

>>105613840 (OP)
There's this semi-successful psyop like people don't/shouldn't seed, you can't torrent in Germany, and so on.
People are gullible sheeps unironically.

>>105616267
Heh, that was me as well but with treasure island. It took 3 weeks for it to finish downloading from some philippine connection. It was rather sad to see, since the movie was popular not too long ago.

>>105613840 (OP)
Because i'm using private trackers and will get my ass ratio'd if I waste my time trying to do something like try to share a dying torrent. I'm basically forced to share all the garbage new stuff that already has plenty of seeds because that's what everybody else is downloading.

>>105613840 (OP)
>thinks I’m obliged to seed when technically I’m more “obliged” to pay for it
Lol. Falls on deaf ears buddy

>>105613840 (OP)
Because I work for the ISP and if I get too many DMCA tickets it'll be mildly embarrassing.

>99.9% of all public torrents, initially comes from private trackers.
Correction:
>99.9% of all torrents, initially comes from topsites and USENET
>private tracker fags lie about this though because they want you to sign up and interview with them
>plz hand over full dox for access we promise we won't do anything with it

>>105617682
I subsist off Bonus points on jpopsuki because nobody listens to the shit I do.

>>105613840 (OP)
Because BitTorrent is a dying, unsecure protocol for 3rd worlders.

>>105618179
Using usenet is the biggest dox possible.

>>105618179
>99.9% of all torrents, initially comes from topsites and USENET

this hasn't been true for years, scene is dead especially for TV and Movies

whats the best torrent site?

>>105618218
>scene is dead especially for TV and Movies
lol yeah that's why I still get new episodes from XDCC and USENET 2 minutes after they air.

Private trackers are for fags that can't make it in the scene because they don't know how to properly rip content.

>>105618214
So hard to pay for access anonymously then access through anonymous email. Guess I should have interviewed with tranny janny on IRC instead and hand over my real IP address. Be a real shame if my account was banned the moment I tried to connect from any other IP and I didn't alert tranny janny when my dynamic IP changes.

>>105618209
whats the next bittorrent for first worlders?

>>105618343
Legally obtained media, archived on a private storage server for personal use and offline compatibility and/or physical collections.

>>105618392
>implying the alternative is illegal

so, how do i sleep when my pc fans are spinning at full speed to seed linux isos right next to me? need help bros

>>105616332
>Most of those torrents with 0 seeds are still alive
some, not most
and people don't connect because they haven't configured their torrent client correctly

Bullshit. We have bonus points for this reason, retard.

>>105618263
fmhy.net has the updated list

>>105613840 (OP)
On my PC I sneed until ratio 2: 1 for the data I've downloaded and 1 for the fact it was available on demand
On my server I sneed until ratio 10 because why not?

>>105618516
>On my PC I sneed until ratio 2: 1
this is only if the torrent is healthy
if the torrent is dying, you should never stop seeding

>>105616267
love when that happens

>>105613845
>refusing to seed
>why is this torrent dead?
you get what you deserve

>>105613840 (OP)
I still have a couple of tb in the plus from 10/15 years ago and don't watch the newest woke serie anymore.

>>105619354
>why is this torrent dead?
More like:
>hm, I forgot to remove that torrent from my list. Almost no one’s seeding, huh. Good thing I already downloaded it. Okay, removed; bye bye!
