Seeding on U -Torrent?

Hello everyone, I am a Newbe on this forum. I was wondering about seeding on U-Torrent? I have downloaded a couple of the new VH shows. I have the downloads going into my U-Torrent site. When the 1st show was done, I cancelled it so it wouldn't seed for anyone else. Is this right? Or is it OK to let it seed so other people can also get this download? I want to do the right thing, and I don't want to do anything wrong. Can someone PLEASE help me out!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kenneth Beahan.

Re: Seeding on U -Torrent?

Think of it this way..... if everyone else closed their window as soon as they finished the download, you would never have gotten the show. So, if you close your window, you may be preventing others from completing the show. The name of the game is Share. If you get something from someone, then you should share it back to others.

See that?Thats your ratio chap.You can see it under your user name.

When the one i've put in bold is 1.00 (give or take a bit depending...),thats the right way.
If it stays low & you dont share back,you are mentioned in the name & shame thread for hit & running.
It only stays low if you stop seeding when you have finished downloading the file (hit & running) .

Re: Seeding on U -Torrent?

Re: Seeding on U -Torrent?

Hello again everyone, my intentions are to share everything I download. I stopped the sharing because I was unclear of if I could share it again. I don't know how to bring the downloads back, to continue to share, but I will promise everyone here, that if I can figure this out I will do that. If someone can offer me some help, it would be greatly appreciated!!!!! Again I am sorry for this, and if I am allowed, all my future dowloads will be shared. I love to share, and I will keep it running for as long as I can.

Sorry again, Kenneth Beahan.

Re: Seeding on U -Torrent?

Start up your bittorrent application and hopefully the torrent files are still in there. If so, select one and then select Start (usually a green arrow at the top of the application).

Re: Seeding on U -Torrent?

Yesterday I downloaded my 1st two shows with uTorrent. Even though after one show was complete and I became a seeder I still don't have any kind of share ratio.

Re: Seeding on U -Torrent?

Re: Seeding on U -Torrent?

It was from the audio torrent threads here at TTD.

I'm new at this so I have no idea.
