== ABOUT HELPING THE RATIO's ==, page 2

this idea will really help new users who tend to download old torrents wich no one grabs after them..this is a nice idea

I THINK IT MIGHT HELP....

well .. first of all .. this thing will be very hard to manage because it will has so many probabilities .. it's like programming .. so I say we can generate a very simple system for that taking into account some concepts like:

immortality points are the base

seeding older torrents give more points

empty seeding start to give points after 40 hours

seeding points will give the credit but I say to add another [zero] to viktor's points like 1000p = 1GB up .. 2000 = 2GB and so on

leeching torrents older than 1260 hours counts half the download and triple upload

featured DJ mixes counts 1/2 download and double upload

>> seeding points will give the credit but I say to add another [zero] to viktor's points like 1000p = 1GB up .. 2000 = 2GB and so on

1000 hours of seeding means about 41,6 days continous uploading, with at least 10kb/sec... do you think who reaches this limit will really need that +1Gb?  

I think maybe the featured Dj's should not count at all at download only at upload and all other life torrents. I think we want to promote the featured Dj's and we want to increase the snatched number of torrents....

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY the WARNED users don't comment... I have a good ratio so I don't need this seeding system.... I just came up with an ideea to help all warned users firstly....

I think we can do some adjustments.... Since our site is called TRIBALMIXES maybe the tribal section should have a privilege... like downloading counts half and uploading double... or just 1.5 things like this...

I want to download a lot of tribal but since I have a ratio to keep up (I want to have 2ratio ) I can't download all tribal mixes and maybe I miss real good sets... But the problem is as I said @the snatching numbers because if we are 10people who take every tribal mix and just some 2,3 who take one of these and 2-3 who take another the maximum snatched number will be too little for wveryone to make ratio 2 for example... And we can promote things like tribal section and featured dj's....

nice idea to give thema chance to inprove their ratios ,but if you see noone is interested.

OK but I think we can still implement this ideea because it's nice... @least we can help the 10-20 users who really read something and let the other 5000 to have the same old problem "why I am banned from downloading anything?"

remove :)

remove what?  

haha.. remove... well..

i see what you mean, guys. i say, 1000 points for 1GB is exactly what i suggested there - 1MB for 1 point, and for viktor's "low-speed uploads", we're talking here people who can't upload at all because of snatching old stuff, of talking people seeding old torrents for many days like 3 weeks, but say just 1 or 2 people snatch them - that seeding for 21 day and uploading for 3 hours total, seeding should count also. so basically seeding that torrent alone for 21 days user will only get like 6 points credit in my system, which is just 6MB, when he uploaded twice the size of torrent in those 21 days say 150MB.

so seeding a torrent is really much smaller credit to your uploads than uploading data on that torrent, but seeding it "empty" will still count, for a little bit, that's why leave all old torrents in your clients to seed and get points. as for older torrents longer seeding more points, this is what i've come up with, and it could work for all kinds of stuff... some kind of rewarding mechanism could be made, so when someone downloads an old everlife torrent, there's a reward of XXX points that can only be used towards DOWNLOADS debit, so when he applies this debit, his ratio is the same as it was before downloading this torrent. this way old everlife torrents (except megapacks), can also be "free", then all featured djs torrents are also undead, so they become free.

there will also be "both-way" awards, that can be used for either UPLOAD credit or DOWNLOAD debit, but they can't work for everlife torrents, because we know that upload credit will make ratio way better than download credit. but than again, for seeding an older torrent or an undead torrent, user will get an award, or just automatically get more points.

why i'm talking this award system? cause it can be expanded for the Lottery thing we talked about in staff section. and also awards can be wide including torrent-upload slots and other.

i was also calling your attention to FAQ section where ways are shown for more points to be earned, what do you think about balancing that??

i think that the idea itself may be a good one but to actually gain advantage for users, website and community may need some adjustment.
as u can see people with bad ratios seem to not care, on the forums and on the torrents comment it is always us!!!
to seed a 3 months old torrent is really easy because u will find 1 user downloading that torrent during a full week and so leaving it open will not affect whatever that user's doing and basically will just give him credit fo nothing

Yeah :) I saw this "US" thing because when a torrent has 3 comments ALL of them are from the people who talk here

I hate people who don't give feedback :(

well .. I totally agree with slash

as usaul...but i think luca has a point

I think that those who have bad ratios (and warnings) never read F.A.Q. section
So I think before activating new system about improvements which helps to raise ratio, you should pm all members about that, otherwise it will be just wasting of time :)
