Am I a Leech??

Recommended Posts

I'm brand new to the whole "torrent thing". I've seached the forum and can't find an answer to the question that has been bothering me.

Scenario – I've downloaded a complete copy of a file, viewed it, and determined that it is not something I want to keep. So I delete the torrent and the data. But I do this before my upload ratio is 1:1.

Am I a leech?

Leecher is a connotation for those who take but do not give back. Depending upon who you ask that ratio or % of sharing will vary. If you did not share to 1:1 (1.000 ratio in General tab) aka 100% of what you downloaded you uploaded back again, I would consider you a leech yes. A nice thing about the Queue in uT, you don't have to worry. Once the * goes away in the # column (with default savings) you have been seeding for both 90 minutes and to a ratio of 1.5 so you're good to go.
