Bit torrents

[Rathi04]

I couldn't get an invite using gmail so if it doesnt work a few times just make up a throw away email.

I got my invite from Homsar through Gmail, didn't go to spam or anything.

[homsar]

Yeah I have no idea what the deal is. It tends to be random with Gmail and Yahoo but Charter, comcast and such are always solid. IPtorrents is worth the time to create a new Email, I think its the best site for movies out there.

out of invites for the time being...

went through over 14 in this thread alone :P

Had a nice laugh, forgot to pay my Cox bill and when they rebooted my modem and changed my IP to redirect to a message telling me as much, I was greeted by a 3 year old DMCA notice instead.

You gotta PM for my invites really, I don't read this board that often.

Downloaded about 3G worth of stuff so far on IpTorrents. Gotta say, its pretty sweet.

I was having a headache with uTorrent and my port forwarding. I setup the port forwarding on the router, but for some reason i couldnt get the yellow triangle to go away on uTorrent showing connectivity issues. I restarted the router and refreshed my IP about a dozen times and it wouldnt clear up. Strange thing was, it was up / downloading just fine. Then about an hour later while downloading I went to check on my torrent and it was Green. NFI.

Have 3 more invites. Send me a message with E-mail that is not AOL or Hotmail. Soon most of FOH will have accounts hopefully

[roosta]

I got a few invites left if anyone is interested. I owe Homsar for hooking me up. one question though, i haven't browsed their FAQ much but is there a way to do requests on it? i got 125 gb uploaded with only like 15gb downloaded so i think i'm a power user but not sure if that is enough to request yet or at all.

Why are there no PS3 torrents at all?

[Divinefactor]

the last couple updates really hindered the progress people were making on ps3 homebrew

I received a warning for Hit 'n Run. What is this?

We expect from every user (power user or not) to help newly added torrents to reach a good seeding/leeching ratio quickly in order to help the torrent during the first hours of its "life".

All torrents must be seeded to a minimum 0.6 ratio,we understand this isnt always possible so a ratio of 0.4 is acceptable in this case, or torrent must be left open seeding for minimum of 60 hours. If its a popular torrent with plenty of leechers then there is no reason why it cant be fully seeded to a 1.1 ratio. If you close your client before you reach a torrent ratio of 0.4 or if you havent reached it (in case of slow upload connections) and close your client before seeding it for the first 24 hours, you will result in getting a automated warning by the System. As soon as you get the warning, you will have the chance to remove it, by correcting your mistake and seeding the torrent to a minimum of 0.4. If you do this in the next 60 hours, your warning will be removed completely.

In case you receive 5 warnings without reseeding your torrents to remove them, your account is automatically banned by the system.

... Do they expect you to keep your computer on, while seeding, forever? Rarely use torrents and never joined a torrent site before. Anything I should know about before using this? Seems like I'm going to have to seed shit for a while before I download anything or I'm going to get banned huh...

[homsar]

I just seed when I go to bed and then delete the torrent when I get a good ratio which is normally after 1 night.
