Re: Seeding / Ratios / Utorrent

Every show in your uTorrent list should have a Peers and Leechers column. Each will look something like x(y). x is the number you are connected to (if it is stopped, the number will be 0) and y is the total number on the tracker. So, after you Stop all your torrents, you should Start some that have a number in the Leechers column. After you start it, it will go from 0(y) to x(y) where x is the number of leechers you are connected to. You WANT that number to be something other than 0. There is no need to try to seed a show that has a 0 in the (y) part.

You can access your profile by clicking on your name in the Currently Active Users list on the front page, or by clicking on your name in your post where a drop-down will have View Public Profile as an option.

uTorrent may have a way to use rules to only seed shows that need seeds (ie. that have leechers), but since I'm not a uTorrent user, I don't know how to instruct you on that. You will have to go to the uTorrent site and read the FAQ.
