My upload ratio looks like ass because I edit videos for a thing with friends, and we use torrent to send the raw footage between computers. So I have like a 0.2 ratio because I’m downloading 5 gigs and then we kill the torrent.
I have so many files that have been stalled at >95% for months.
Dang
I think you’ve got won, great work!
I, too, am a seeder.
For how long are you doing this and what’s your upload speed?
Showoff
I actually didn’t post my highest ratio, I didn’t want to seem like a braggart

My most uploaded file is a copy of Shrek 2 with Latin American Spanish dub, it took me over a month to download. I swear to God the only one seeding it was someone who would just open their client, download whatever they were looking for, then shut it off. It’s the only copy of that dub I could find in decent quality. Now I’m at ~50 ratio for that file.
If you can only find 0 seed torrents just chuck it in your client anyway, I’ve had several actually complete.
This is great advice. It’s easy to get disheartened with a spinning torrent, but heroes like you can turn that around.
Welcome aboard!
Arrr!

I can never get decent upload speeds. I seed everything I can but the most I’ve ever seen is 100 kbps. Average is probably more like 10 and very few upload at all. Haven’t been able to find the reason.
This is me too. I’ve got about 5TB of material being seeded 24/7 from my media seever, but I rarely see more than single-digit GB total upload volume per day. The majority of the time, except for the occasional blip, I rarely see total upload rate get over a few hundred kB/s despite having the cap at 24MB/s.
I’d have to stop torrenting completely and only seed for a year to get my ratio past 2.0 lol

Arr!
Nice. I just got above 2 for my ratio. I don’t have symmetric internet, but I have my torrents set up to never stop, and I don’t delete.
God I wish I had symmetrical upload. Gigabit down and like, 125mbps up.
Not so much for this but I self host stuff like my photos and I notice it’s slower when scrolling my photos outside the house. And using my personal VPN, makes my download limited to my upload speed.
I’ve got like half a gig down and 20 ish mbps up. I also limit it to less because family and stuff.
Spectrum? I’m moving from symmetric to this shit soon.
One time I found a KDrama that changed my life (Crash Landing on You), and to thank the producers, I set up a dedicated seedbox for years that did nothing but seed their show :). I think I hit like 7TB uploaded before shutting it off
The democracy and equality humans need, but don’t deserve.
I would absolutely be a seeder if my router didn’t reset itself in the middle of the night. That, and I’d be worried about getting caught by my ISP, even with my VPN.
Regardless, these people are the real heroes.
