hi guys!!! as you noticed from the title, i m new member. in fact, i read everything to deeply understand the rules and the "tuto,guide" section, but i still didn't understand 100% overall. i m new member and i dont want to get banned because my ratio is low so:here is some questions that i would like to answer:
-what's better to increase some ratio: downloading then uploading or uploading first then downloading??will one of them help me to download or upload fast??
Dent already answered this question but I would advise to start with Freeleech files you wish to have.
-i see a topic that says: there is leechers which is good for new members to increase the ratio something like "upload counts only" << i didn't understand and i dont know where leechers loacated in the website.
As per Dents answer, downloading freeleech files do not increase your download count but can increase your upload count. Compare it with being at a bar and getting free drinks, your buzz gets increased but your wallet stays untouched
-after downloading a file in torrent, should i leave to "seed"??if so, i should not close the torrent???
Yes you should keep it seeding for at least 24 hours, preferably 48 hours after your download is finished. Else you can be seen as a hit and runner, meaning one who only wants the stuff and does not want to share his/her speeds.
-if we download a file, we should not move it in other specific folder because it wouldn't seed. am i wrong??
Indeed do not change the folder or rename anything. However when a file is packed you can ofcourse unpack the file and save that file elsewhere. Just leave the packed files where they are.
-lets say i download a file"test1" that has 1Go. you say that we should not delete in order to seed for other people. which one we should not the torrent file"test1" that has 64 ko or the real file that has 1Gb???
Basically same answer as above. Leave your files untouched and the torrent file seeding in your client (utorrent for instance)
-what's .nfo???when do we use it and who will need to use it??
An .nfo is an extra file that often shows extra data of the person/group that created the upload and also often provides information about the files. You can compare this for instance with the book you get when you buy a CD or a very small guide. It is not always needed but does make the upload complete.
-if i shut down my computer and restart it 10 hours after(other words: torrent closed or disconnected and re connect), will this makes me troubling in terms of seeding a file or download it????
It is not like we are Godzilla and will smash you to pieces when this happens once, but the rules do say you need to seed for a certain amount of time after the download is finished and thus you need to comply with the rules. There are ofcourse circumstances that all of us need to reboot or shut the PC, hence the staff will probably not ban you the first time.
-i wanna upload(in order to increase my ratio) some bjj instructional dvdfor example (Roy Dean's BJJ Blue Belt Requirements DVD), but i see that it is already posted in mma-torrents and not the same size(mine 1.36 Go, in mma-torrents 1.37 Go), any solution for those???i m sure that we dont post duplicate topic(same dvd).
If the folder and files are the same but the size is just a bit different then it is probably best to download the torren, appoint it to the folder where your files are located and download it. If they are indeed the same the torrent will start to check the files you have and probably just download the one or two files missing. If it starts to download then stop it immediately and delete the torrent in your client and check what happened. Rechecking does not effect your ratio.
-which one has higher chance to increase his ratio: the one who has differents files(file1:50mo,file2:50mo,file3:50mo) in total:150 mo, or the one who has one file with 150 mo.
If you have more seeds the chances are higher that a file will be downloaded by someone else. It can however happen that no one will download the file, leaving you seeding but not uploading. The biggest chance to increase ratio is that you have a populare file seeding and when not many other people seeding the same file. The longer you seed the less people will be seeding it but new members might not have it and you get in line first when they get it.
-if i have a dvd that is not complete(means i deleted some other videos that were already include in dvd), can i seed it???
When the same file is uploaded you can try to download it and get the rest, then seed (see size question). If it is never uploaded it depends what is missing. If the extras are missing people probably would like to get the DVD you have and you might upload it. If the DVD is worthless then ofcourse no.
-if i dont upload neither download for a certain time, the ratio change???the ratio is stable or variable??if so, does it goes down or up(assuming i have already some files seeding in torrent).
Ratio only changes when you upload or download something. The only exceptions are when you donate or when you win a prize in a competition.
thank you in advance for answering those questions.
You are very welcome
edit: sorry my english is not fluent yet, and sorry again if those questions are stupid questions.
