First of all....thank you brother for the seeds. I usually DL rightaway, but this time I waited a couple of days and I guess the wait paid off with being able to DL the corrected torrent.
Secondly....

I am fairly new to torrent and not sure how the ratio varies from site to site. Anyway, I will follow your advise from now on to catch up. Thanks. |
One of the reasons your ratio at other sites may stay up is because they have a much larger membership so the concurrent DL/UL balances out. But because BT has a limited membership unless you start DLing immediately after the seed is posted you will rarely get the opportunity to seed for a lot of people because everyone has DLed the file already.
But, the larger point is that you shouldn't close your torrent as soon as your ratio hits 1. At another site I just stopped seeding 2 torrents, in one my ratio was 53, in the other 49. The concept of torrent works better this way. Remeber, the MINIMUM is 1, you should try to have it more than that.
