    My problem is that it’s hard to stay in good standing with private trackers while using the *arr suite. I leave everything seeded for weeks, but I never get close to 1.00 ratio on any of the files. It’s not a connectivity issue AFAICT because I do have SOME people connected and downloading from me, but by the time the torrent reaches that point where there’s hundreds/thousands of seeders, I’m still running at a big deficit.

      Oh on private trackers it’s hard to keep a genuine ratio like that. Instead they typically assign points for time you spend seeding, and you use those points to “buy” upload credit that counts for your ratio.

      Many private trackers have a requirement to log in every X months so occasionally I just go log in to each and spend all the points.
