A few months ago I grabbed this torrent from rarbg, and it took weeks to download. Often going days with no seeders.

I finally got it, and decided I’d seed beyond my usual 2x to help others get this. Then rarbg went under, and now I think I’ll just keep this one going.

    Not from the same source, but I’m in the middle of getting a 5GB file that took me five days so far and will take another five to complete. After that, I think I will keep sharing for as long as possible this one, since I see a lot of peers every day, even though there’s only one seeder, from which I’m currently downloading at 10Kbps (and not because of my bandwidth, I think it’s theirs that’s a bit on the slow side).

    I have slow upload, but once there are two seeds things should get better for all other peers, compared to now haha

      I always am going crazy seeing a 1mib/s upload divided by 10 peers while I am sitting here with a gig symmetric line ready to satisfy all within a minute (if their pipes allow it).
      JUST GIVE ME THE DAMN BANDWIDTH and I shall satisfy everyone and their dog for a 100 ratio…
