Have been doing this stuff for more years than most of you have been alive, ha,ha!!
In the early days of torrents, seeding was a key feature to keep the post alive. But now it seems too many just want to download and fuck off, with absolutely no seeding back. Why is that? They just download something, then it’s fuck off to anyone else who might want to download it?
To me the basic spirit of sharing has gone. Maybe I’m just an old cunt now, but to me it’s a real shame.
I feel like when you are young or first starting you may not have the hardware to keep seeding. But after some time you setup a system and then should pay it back by always seeding as long as possible.
