Uberleech issues
I have a problem with chumps with extremely bad share ratios, especially when they try to participate in many torrents at once. They slow things down for everyone.
I use peerguardian (www.phoenixlabs.org) to block the worst of them, I maintain a list of bad ip's which my pc will not communicate with. My question is, is it bad form to permanantly block these chumps? Another question, how and who are the torrenters who show up on the tracker with no user infos? I have noticed many of these ip's fall into the uberleech category. Thanks No members have liked this post.

Re: Uberleech issues
This really bothers me. I have uploaded a TON (download 8 gigs on Phish 1996-11-16 and uploaded 18.86 gigs this week, for example) but it is all on the old tracker, so my public stats looks weak. I screen capture a shot of my client when I've done with a torrent just so I can keep a record of what I really trade up and down, but I haven't got around to contact the Powers That Be to get my ratio manually adjusted. Does that mean that you are going to assume that I am an uberleech and block me?

Re: Uberleech issues
No way man, you're not even close. I'm talkin about for example someone on phish 2-18-97 right now
who has been connected for more than 2days who has downloaded: 1.83gig and upped: 19.48mb. Also I am not talking about just blocking someone just because of a relatively low ratio, I look at whats happening, like if someone is leeching for days and giving next to nothing in return.

Re: Uberleech issues
Just to chime in...
I will also ban IP's that are firewalled specifically when I upload a show just to help me get in and out faster. My thoughts are that by doing this, it enables you to theoretically get a few completes on one torrent so that you can start uploading another show. For whatever that's worth...

Re: Uberleech issues
Some people may have honest reason's for bad ratio's,can't up-load from work etc,but once or twice is acceptable,but for the other bad ratio's,well they are just plain greedy and selfish,...
