Nackas Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 Could anyone please explain the idea of share ratio?I understand all other aspects of Utorrent but this and if you have a high share ratio do you receive better download speeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoovious Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 all the share ratio is, is a minor indicator of how much you've participated...a share ratio of 0.500, means you've shared with someone else, half, of whatyou've downloaded... a ratio of 1.000 means you've shared back 100% of whatyou downloaded, so at least you can otherwise part the swarm guilt-free if ratio is what is important there...Availability is a better indicator if it is ok to leave the swarm... 2 or more seeds, and/or an availability above 2.000... you'llknow the swarm is self-sufficient without you, if you need to leave a swarm.-- Smoovious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllGamer Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 just use the default of uTorrent which is 1.5 or 150%also Seeding (sharing) automatically stops when you reach 150%then you are guilt free, and it will keep you in good status with other peoplesome torrents specially those using Azeurus and other alike that are Heavily on ShareRatio, it will not let you download if your Share Ratio is lower than 0.5so keep that in mind.

Firon Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 It doesn't actually stop the torrent unless you also set another option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
