    Why did you cheat?

    Yes, as the headline reads, why did you cheat?

    I cheat because I have a very low upload speed. And here where I live you can not get the lovely 10, 50 and 100 mbits upload speeds yet ... But they have started digging the cables down so will not be much time before I can get a delicious fiber speed ..

    I guess the slow upload speed is the number one reason of everyone that cheats. Next comes the reason to minimize the seeding time and use the upload somewhere else. Or to get an even bigger e-penis

    32kB/s upload, overseeding, and no chances of me getting a better connection in the near future

    I also bought a seedbox a few times now. But it is too expensive for me, because I am poor students .. :<

    Most time I cheat only if I can't get a 1:1 on that torrent for different reasons.

    But sometimes I cheat cause I don't want to seed.

    I cheat to maintain a good ratio... My upload speed sucks so I don't have a choice. And after all- the sites where I am don't really need my upload as there are many many seedbox users.

    But that doesn't mean that I don't even try seeding torrents... I have a huge list of seeds in my client

    i cheat because it's fun to do it but mainly to get a 1:1 ratio my connection at times is low and its hard to maintain a ratio is some places


    Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

    i have only 16 kb/s upload. why should i seed, if i give even 6 kb/s upload i cant surf anymore. my ping is even through downloading sometimes 200 and more. through a server i cheat sometimes in xxx tracker if i am bored, but its really less.

    good hopefully i will get a billger downloadconnection in future but will get infos soon.

    No fiberglass connection yet so upload is slow. And nowadays HDmovies are the bomb so downloading bigger files even doesnt help your ratio. with fiberglass your download is your upload so no problem then butt till then............
