Seedbox sharing !

Well..

I am the most "passive" seeder in the seed boxes according to the stats. still in abt 13 days i have uploaded like 500GB+.

I dont queue much up. i dont do smart seeding either. I just want a good enough buffer with which even without seeding, I should be able to download as much i want in my BSNL BB for few months.

Like with BSNL BB i should be able to download upto max 120GB per month.

I think thats not possible, because most private tracker wants its users to individually seed each torrent to 1:1 or some trackers at the most allow a ratio of 0.4 on each torrent(unlike desitorrents and demonoid in which users must maintain a overall ratio >= 1) before u get a H&R warning

Even i thought,before joining seedbox, that just buffering my account on these private trackers will do(like desitorrents) but was wrong.

IMO this is a really crap rule:mad:. due to this rule we are forced to download are preferred torrents(especially movie) when they are just added to the tracker because after some time the number of seeders will increase like hell and peers/leech are very few and above that these are not actual leechers they are just partial seeders and so we cant even go to the 0.4 mark.:mad:

Dude....:huh: hows that even "OK"?

If u 2 guys r using that then in 30 days u can only upload abt 3TB max. r8?
The ones we use have 8 people using them. in 13 days the total must be like 10TB+..:ashamed:

or there are more people ther?

Err...

Correct me if I am wrong but what matters is at the end of the day how much YOU pay and how much can your server typically upload/seed for you, assuming you are smart in your torrent choices.

I cant discuss the details of the seedbox I am using in this thread. The reason I asked the question in the first place was to see if spending 800 per month for a server that seeds approx 3TB is good choice or not.

well guys, you should be happy with whatever works good for you :)

as far as our shared seedbox is concerned, we've managed more than 76 TB in 2 and a half months

So assuming you do close to 90TB in 3 months then its 30TB per month between 10 guys which comes to 3 TB per person per month for 1000 bucks right?

Moreover my "3TB is only upload" I am not even considering whats downloaded onto my seedbox.

This is strange. I been torrenting for years but havent yet encountered this.

i never download things from seedbox to my PC. its just for buffering. i download other things that i like. never had this issue.

800 for approx 3 TB and 1000 for abt 4~5TB. yup you pay more, you get more.

we're 7 people / box, not 10

^ Rs 800 for 3 TB u/l / month is good IMO

Thanks. After waiting for a bit to get into your seedbox I chose this one and wanted to make sure I didnt make a bad choice and quite frankly I am surprised because I found your seedbox price/performance very good.

The only thing that sucks is wait time. I feel its eaiser to get an invite for blackcatgames than getting a slot on your seedbox :hap2:

Actually, I fail to understand what are you trying to prove here. I already told that Rs 800 for 3 TB is good, but you're carrying on with your propaganda. We're not just sharing seedbox, we're a community. Unfortunately nobody could be told what seedwave is, you'll have to see for yourself.

And by the way, we're 7 people / box, not 10

Anyways, if it satisfies your ego, "our shared seedbox sucks people, go with spacenoxx please" p.m him for more detail :cool2:

Dude..thats just not cool.:eek:hyeah:

why u bursting his bubble:p. he just wants to be sure that his money is worth it.:rofl:. He just want to make sure that for 800 he will upload more than one of us doing for 1000. He doesnt, but hey..... smile you are on TE:tongue:.

To everyone, his own is the best.

No you didnt get my point. I wasnt trying to put your seedbox down. You can check my post on the previous coupleof pages where all I wanted to know was whats the average seeding by a user on that seedbox so that I can compare with mine to see if I made the right choice or not.

Imagine this: After waiting for over a week to get a slot on your seedbox, I decided to got for something else. Now if that seedbox sucked, not only did I lose my spot on your box but I also wasted money on a crappy seedbox. This is what I wanted to confirm.

For the record, your seedbox performs better then mine based on the stats/price.

I wish. even with the 2mbps on a 1mbps MTNL unlimited there is only so much you can download. I am gradually getting tired of mindless downloading. I already got my 2nd 1TB drive and planning to order the 3rd one to make a RAID5 setup. With my current seeding credits I think I will be good for 3-4 months easily.

AFAIK(reading ur posts on Seedwave) before joining seedbox u were on trackers like demonoid and desitorrents which had a rule where in one should maintain a overall ul/dl ratio >= 1, so u were not aware of this that one must maintain ul/dl ratio of 1 or at least 0.4 for each downloaded torrent.
Just check out the RULES or FAQ of the trackers you got invited when u joined the seedbox team.
Just a info that might help you:)
 
THAT i know...everyone does. the overall ratio.

u said for each file that we download we have to do that. thats what i said.

^^ Then you are on all wrong trackers. On the trackers that I leech, there are no hit and run rules. ;)

I feel we should come out of this leech as much as you can attitude and try to upload as much as possible with our limited upload speeds or atleast seed for 24/48/72 hours based on the site requirement and use a seedbox if you can afford to keep a healthy overall ratio.

The other day there was a "walk-in" for what.cd but our entire country was banned because most of us apparently don't contribute much to the torrent community or dont follow common dos and donts of trackers.
 
^^actually its not only our country, there are other which are also banned like romania was banned from some tracker, dont remember the name of the tracker.
