Hey all, I know a lot of people are migrating to private torrent sites, and OK, that’s a choice. However there are still a lot of people on the public torrents who are just leeching and not seeding.

I have several popular (old/classic) movies in my feed that I have uploaded (literally) 1000x the original and many more in the several hundred times. That’s fine, I choose to support the community, but it’s pretty depressing when I look at the seeders count and those movies have 2 or 3 other seeders.

This only works if you share. Please don’t cut off as soon as you’ve downloaded.

And on a personal note, if anyone has audio or video files for “Machine Gun Fellatio” also listed as MGF could you please start seeding in particular

“MGF Pack 1”

“MGF+Pack+2”

“MGF+Pack+3”

If I can get the download completed I’ll keep them up permanently, but unfortunately as they are obscure/rare I’m getting nowhere.

Rules don’t permit me showing the torrent link of course. DM if that would help

    It’s not that difficult because you pay for a seedbox, it’s hard for us regular users who seed from regular machines. I have a 300 Mbps connection and seed everyday for 15+ hours and still struggle to compete with Seedboxes because they have fucking 10-20 Gbps speeds and seed 24/7

      I do it from home and do just fine.
      My «trick» was to only download complete seasons and movies larger than 14 GB to get loads of freeleech to build ratio and just keep seeding them.

      I’m at >10 ratio on TL and stopped caring about sizes as the pool of old files outseed anything new I download.

      But I get your point: seedboxes have made it a lot harder to do effortlessly from home

      We are also capped bro.
      Not all slots are unlimited gbit.
      My own slot had a basis speed of 200 mbps symmetric.
      And often I can only hit a max upload speeds of 1-10 mbps and rarely more with less seeders on public trackers.
