Topic: Why are private torrent sites so crappy?

Anonymous A started this discussion 13 years ago #25,592

Tons of files but never enough seeders. I don't get how this happens when they require a certain ratio.

im not sure on this but i believe that since theres not that many users the whole community gets hold of it pretty quickly and thus are able to seed it to an acceptable ratio quickly before dropping it; as opposed to open trackers that constantly have new leechers to replace the lost seeders

Ya do know that even IF there are enough seeders...Ya may not get them caus,e of your crappy ability to route them. Tablets and Cell phones really crap out on seeders quickly.

But I'm running my client on Ubuntu server. I can DL a recent 1080p movie from the piratebay in about 5-10 minutes. So it's not the setup that's week, it's the swarm.
