Problem on demonoid

S

Scoop Man

Novice
i am new at demonoid so excuse my ignorance.
Anyway i downloaded mcafee 2007 and then i seeded it (using azureus) but my account information says I've only downloaded 2 megabits and uploaded none.
I'd appreciate it if u told me exactly what i am doing wrong?
thnx
 
Things to note are=>

>>stats get updated after 24 hrs.

>>

Ratios here at Demonoid are handled differently than they are at other sites. Most sites that track ratios cap their membership somewhere in the tens of thousands (and generally handle even less peers at any given time) whereas Demonoid's tracker handles millions of peers. Most other sites embed a passkey in your torrent and update your stats at regular intervals. This creates a lot of work for the tracker. Demonoid uses a process that is much less work for the tracker. This allows us to have many more members without having to buy many more servers. The way it works is at the end of a torrent session, your BitTorrent client sends a "event=stopped" message that includes information on how much you have uploaded and downloaded. If this "event=stopped" message is not received properly, your ratio will not be updated. Some complain that Demonoid should have a PID system like all those other sites, but there are plenty of PID sites out there already, and it has never been Deimos' intention to make this like every other site. Basically the choice is which would you rather have, the diversity of torrents that 2 million members brings or more perfect ratio tracking? (I'll assume since you're here & not at one of those other sites that you agree that there are unique benefits to the way things are run here at Demonoid.) FYI, if "event=stopped" messages aren't getting through, it is likely that your last bit of seeding isn't getting tracked on other sites as well.

Nyways it is gr8 that u r uploading.
Keep it gng
& moreover if u dont keep a good enough ratio u'll b banned
They'll give u 5 warnings & then ban ur acc
 
Have heard that ppl do get banned for bad ratio but "bad" in demonoid is not .1 but its more like .001 or worse. So as long as u dont do anything actively to stop uploading even when u are downloading, it will be ok. When u are downloading, u simultaneously upload .25 (on adsl connection, lines like bsnl) or about .75 (on sdsl connection lines like airtel).
 
Hey another question

how do i get the torrents sorted by seeders or leachers or even by size

can't get it done.

thnx for all ur previous help guys
 
Hmm.. this "event=stopped" thing doesn happen to me s lot i think.. cuz it rarely updates my ratios on the site. Once, i uploaded 2.6GB and downloaded 700MB (on one torrent) and even after many days the ratio didn change.. Only showed how much i had downloaded and not uploaded
 
1.U cant sort on seeders etc in demonoid. This is probably done to save on server capacities.
2.People with dynamic ips will have tough time having their ratios updated.

u need to log into demonoid before seeding do that ur ip gets registered
 
Yea and make sure that u r on same ip when u disconnect. Or visit the site again when u r going to disconnect. Too much of hassle. Just make sure that u upload decent amount when u r downloading. (Decent means 25% of D/L on adsl line). And u can be safe there.
