How do you "seed" a torrent???

Probably a stupid question, but.........

I downloaded a few torrents, more then usual, before I leave the country. Now my ratio sucks today and I can't download more. So how do you seed files that you have already downloaded?

I am using Demonoid.

You just sit there. It should seed automatically if somebody is looking for them. You haven't moved the files have you?

No, the files are still listed where they were saved. I have my BittTorrent thing open, but for some reason my uploads haven't adjusted yet.

Yeah I find its interface pretty user-friendly. If you download it now though, look on the page and get the older version without all the vuze crap.

Don't use bitcomet on any tracker that looks at ratio. Bitcomet is one of the worst torrent clients you can use: it contains adware, it's DHT protocal is exploitable, and it "cheats".

make sure you get verson 1.6.0 or older, the program was bought by the mpaa and all the newer versions are banned from most private tracker sites.

I have bittorrent and i search on sites like torrentbox, torrentspy

anybody know of other good torrent search engines?

He's talking about clients, not trackers dipshit.

This thread explains why after many years of existence torrents are still relatively underground and lawsuit-free
