There are a lot of benefits of private trackers and the negatives are just a little, easily ignorable item compared to the multiple benefits. In fact, there are no negatives at all. All they want you to do is do the right thing so that the community thrives and everyone gets faster download speeds. :)

Only drawback of private trackers is ratio... I've never been a leecher.. I seed 1:1 in Open torrents(as you call so).. But I get sign up of a private tracker and see a mind blowing song and download it.. Ok now I'm very ready to seed...But where are the Leechers?? No body will download from me.. Keeping my ratios down even though I'm seeding for a long period. Eventhough some trackers consider CERTAIN PERIOD of seeding as ratio 1... But it is not always the same...:(

Yeah, you are right. That is one problem we Indians with pathetic upload speeds have to suffer through. :(

Well I have been using Greedy torrent for almost 2 months now & not a single site has banned me.....It is a very good software provided you know the limits ;)

Well..Its the question of ethics man... Seeding refers to Ulpoading and doesnt mean FALSE DATA ABOUT UPLOADING...

But its these Indian broadband ISPs which dont offer good Upload speeds... So using Greedy Torrent is the only option!!! (Provided if you want to reach the 1:1 target as fast as possible).. :)

Coming back to original topic, is it all we can do for optimization of "torrenting"

Well... Cant we do some optimization in torrent client for maximum utilisation of bandwidth..(I said so as I got higher speeds in Azureus than in Bitcomet for the same file in same tracker with almost same no. of seeders..)

So there must tweaking done in torrent client too...I think!!

By uploading whatever you download. If you download one gigabyte of data, keep seeding it until you have uploaded one gigabyte of data. :)

@rakeshishere,

Configuring BSNL Modems to Forward Ports.

I request you to please add this link to the first post of this thread in bold letters. Quiz_Master has linked this thread to his thread too so anyone who reads either of these tutorials can easily jump to the other one. In my opinion, it would be a huge help to newbies who want comprehensive and summarised information about using the BitTorrent network. Thank you! :)

Agree! Open torrents are also very easy to find. Just google them and you'll have it. No need to join any forums :p

Great thread rakeshishere, it would be nice if you mentioned about uPNP.

uPNP (Universal Plug and Play) is something both Azureus, uTorrent and Limewire are capable of. Other clients may be too, but my experience is limited to these three. Most routers nowadays come enabled with uPNP.
-You will have to enable uPNP in your router first and reboot it.
-Then in the options or preferences of the torrent client, enable uPNP.

The client will now automatically talk to your router and set the port forwarding.

Read more about uPNP here
