Any experienced torrenters here? For me a torrent took like 3 days for a 4 Gigabyte movie, I had like 1 slow ass peer at a time.

I had one that only had 1 seeder and they were only online for like 20 minutes a day. Took over a month to finish that torrent. I think it was like 35GB for a complete series of a hard to find show.

So annoying waiting for that torrent to get to 100%.

    20 minutes a day

    Wow did he have some automation that restarted his computer daily? Amazing that the torrent finished for you!

    I also have one that is sitting 50% and it has been sitting there for days. I think people should be honest about torrenting, its obvious. The experience can be hit and miss, some seeders have very slow connection, and break all the time (intentionally)?

    No idea, but I asked for the seeder to be online more and no answer. Other seeders are good about putting something back on their seedbox if you request it. Not this one.
