I’ll admit, when I first started torrent I was not really familiar with how it worked and how important seeding was. I would just use magnet links without configuration to save the torrent and seed after completion. Well… I have finally, got myself back to 1.00 after a couple months and working to try to always seed double what I get for each torrent.

Often times I was one of the few random seeders available for some of these torrents. Friendly reminder to give back because you never know when you’re one of the rare cases that can complete someones long lost file download!

      Is there a guide? I have the same problem.

      Edit: seems like that one person in the swarm has to have port forwarding enabled. So if you can’t port forward, you need someone else to and then you can upload to them.
