One small problem with BT and Ratios...

I like obscure files sometimes.
Ones that few people wish to download.
So, I download say a 1.2GB file and no one is requesting that file, ever... there went my ratio, huh?

BT is great for popular files... but not all files.
Ya gotta select your sources wisely!

Not all of us have a choice of sources to choose from so its more a choice of 'do i really want that at screwing up my ratio?' now if you want to share any (via PM), i'd graciously accept them

Interesting note, on a Private tracker, if your share ratio is above 1, your depriving someone of being able to upload. Ultimatly all share ratios must add up to the number of copies of the torrent created.
