Hi I just joined my first private tracker (torrentleech). I found something in the wish list which I have. I’d like to seed it to start out on a good foot. Are there any good guides on that? I’ve tried in the past and utterly failed, I’m hoping it’s easier to start a seed on a private tracker?
If you want more advance, Then get content freelech first on torrentleech IRC channel, as new releases are announced there before they appear on the site. Using autobrr is best for that https://github.com/autobrr/autobrr
Here is torrenteech guide to download freeleech using autobrr https://wiki.torrentleech.org/doku.php/autobrr
Be aware that many users have seedboxes on torrentleech, so you will be competing with them. Without a seedbox, you will have a hard time uploading (seeding). This should not be problem if you permaseed your torrents, as you will earn points that can be exchanged for upload credit.
To add to this, your user class will define what the minimum amount of seed TIME is required. https://wiki.torrentleech.org/doku.php/user_classes (note that you are not forced to seed 1:1, but only meet the minimum required time.) I have autobrr cycle through 17 freeleech torrents a day and whatever my ratio is, thats my surplus to use later. From there, I continue to seed them until they are culled with a set ETA in qbittorrent. I have a local NAS with a few extra TB in storage that I just let run for the last year and a half. Current ratio is 133.172% with a total of 45.44TB seeded.
