Boost your ratio in BitmeTV!!!

No offense but that is likely to hurt your ratio more than help it.:ermm:
Especially with only 15 leechers and out of that I wonder how many partial seeders?:unsure:

Suggest you join TVT maybe.:dry:

Also interesting how the majority of people "thanking" the uploader aren't even listed as leechers.
What a joke.
 
bmtv = Such a nice looking site ( i would say in top 3 for sure ), with really everything for TV and so hard to maintain ratio, i cant boost it even with dedicated box :lol: ...

So basically I can sit on my VIP ratio ,get stuff elsewhere and once in a blue moon download something that I get a sudden hankering for or fight a pointless and inevitably losing battle while actually attempting to make regular use of the site.
Not really a hard choice to make is it?

Not at all. If you read up ahead in this thread, you'll find I use it in exactly the same way. I don't feel like competing for long with ratio tycoons.

At any rate, at the expense of sounding like the true moron that I am, where would you truly suggest I get my normal fix for TV shows? I won't lie when I say at the moment I use SCC, and sparingly HDBits (I'd rather immortalize my favorite movies collection in higher quality, than TV series, speaking from a strict priority perspective).

I've heard TVT is good (for example Rart's good word in for it), but then again I've heard there's tvtorrents.ru or tvtorrentZ or dozens of weird names that I haven't kept up with. Which is truly the best substitute, or at least the place with the least amount of ratio tycoons? A review can only say so much about a place.

(PS This question isn't directed at idoleyes, more like at anyone reading)

I'm really surprised though at how little some people seem to know about the site though. Just by looking at the latest Lost episode, it has over 2500 seeders, on par with (and sometimes exceeding) the amount of seeds on the torrent at a behemoth such as TL. It makes me wonder where all those users came from and how that site is publicized.

I think TVT.com gets most of it's publicity through word-of-mouth. It doesn't get much mention on invite sites, or isn't featured in trading posts, because it's not considered an "elite" site.

I've invited more people to TVT.com than all of my other trackers combined. Almost all of them are still active members there. I haven't invited nearly as many people to BMTV, but of those I have invited almost all of them are disabled, either from inactivity or ratio problems. BMTV is the one everyone covets but ends up treating as a trophy or only using it for rare content they can't find elsewhere. TVT.com is the one they actually use.
 
I dunno, grabbing season packs is definitely solid, though they often have fewer initial leechers. I've uploaded 60-100GB on a 5GB XviD season pack before, but you'll have to keep it seeding for quite a while.

I can count on one hand the amount of people who (I know) that have even heard of Taken, let alone seen an episode of it.

Your point has been duly noted, though. :)

Relatively speaking Taken was pretty big in Canada being filmed in BC it was allowed to circumvent some Canadian content laws and so got more than it's fair share of play on Space.

Sorry that doesn't really have anything to do with anything but I just didn't want "OMG guy with that box just failed :lol:" as the last post in this thread.:dry:
 
Keeping a good ratio in bitmetv is an exercise in torrenting. They seem to be after donations since they barely ever have freeleech(more like never) and when they do they always say that freech/freeleech isn't for bitmetv. (Wtf does that even mean?).

But they do have some hard to find shows, which kindof sucks in a way cause it's risky to grab them in the first place!

I would still most certainly stick to TVT(.com).

TVT.ro (not ru, I don't think), at least in my mind, as a little too much freeleech, it seems that almost every other torrent there is freeleech, and you can see the effects that has on their torrents' lifetime (I was getting reseed requests in my inbox constantly).

TVTz, while in theory a great concept, with a great adoption system for keeping torrents alive, doesn't have nearly enough users to be called a true substitute for a bigger site like TVT or any other big 0day tracker.

I'm really surprised though at how little some people seem to know about the site though. Just by looking at the latest Lost episode, it has over 2500 seeders, on par with (and sometimes exceeding) the amount of seeds on the torrent at a behemoth such as TL.

Are releases required to be unrar'd over at TvT? That is one of the reasons I use bmtv still (and btn now some). I know its not that hard to unrar, but I'm lazy so if I dont have to I dont want to.

partial seed :P
 
Can someone explain to me what purpose this torrent serves? BMTV is a great repository, I love the place. I use it to grab seasons/shows that other TV sites haven't even as much as heard of and BMTV has a complete pack. However, for something as popular as prison break why should someone come advertise it here? Why would someone grab it from there?

Am I the only one that uses BMTV for obscure shows, and get my mainstream stuff from no ratio trackers?
 
I agree with the alternate sites theory. But first of all trying to boost your ratio on BMTV with 1 torrent is a shit idea.

Back to alternate sites. I prefer tvt.ro (which does have freeleech on HD stuff, but I don't think its too much). A combination of that and TVT.com does a person well. Hell even BTN is better than BMTV nowadays.
 
I wouldnt use that torrent to build ratio. I grabbed just the first episode and have uploaded 192 kB in like an hour. If you have a buffer and are willing to seed a while then it could work. But that torrent definitely isnt a ratio builder for your average member. (unless you partial seed a tiny bit).

Edit: Finally got a leecher so Im sure I will come out ahead but still, Dont go grabbing this whole thing cus it may get your ass banned. (unless you have the buffer or a really fast line and like to live on the edge :P )

See there's the reason I hate that kind of shit.Although your ratio will no doubt have the greatest possible gain not much help for anyone interested in the whole fucking pack is it ?

And contrary to what everyone says 70% of people downloading packs ( as evidenced here)anyplace do it simply for the ratio boost.A fucking stupid way to run trackers if you ask me living in a convenient little fantasy world of artificial upload/download traffic .
If people weren't apparently patently brain-dead or weren't so worried about their stupid fucking elite trackers they would stop such pointless practices .

PS like anyone really cares about the fucking second or third season of HeroesPrison Break anyway.:frusty:
PPS if you do then ignore everything I just said because you are a fucking total loss anyway.
