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

Once I have a job I'm going to rent a seedbox for public trackers. Fuck DMCA!

Why not build a seedbox for yourself?

Bandwidth & speed, mostly

I have fast internet for my area and they match my UL to my dl (a rarity) but my seedbox in the Netherlands had the capacity for 5x that bandwidth, meaning basically all of my torrents download lickety split and I'm usually high in the favored seeder list due to my connection, allowing me to quickly earn my ratio back

Not a bad idea, all things considered. The only issue is that I would need collo space and a VPS in non-DMCA land. The hardware behind a seedbox shouldn't be that crazy anyways, just a lot of bandwidth and a lot of storage
