    1. @greydragon412 It is the process of connecting to a torrent when you have a complete file.

    2. @greydragon412 You help out with making the torrent download faster for others.

    4. @greydragon412 Which is why you should probably use a torrent program that protects against that or somethingl.

      1. @masterofredashing @greydragon412 @eaglehooves Not Seeding basically kills the bittorent network. If nobody is seeding, how does anyone get files?

        1. @ceruleanspark exactly.

        2. @ceruleanspark IT doesn't allow students to torrent, and they monitor upload rates. Making a habit of big long uploads gets your internet taken away.

          1. @eaglehooves I am shocked that your network management people don't want illegal, bandwidth saturating activity on their network. Shocked I say.

            1. @ceruleanspark Well that's a duh, it's that they take it seriously that makes it annoying. Everyone does it anyways (even the IT staff) we just found that not seeding makes it very hard to get caught.

              1. @eaglehooves Stealing from film producers and videogame developers is one thing, but stealing from hard working pirates? I am disgusted good sir.

    5. @greydragon412 It eats your bandwidth as well. That can be problematic depending on your connetcion.

    6. @greydragon412 The point is, if everyone took your attitude, the network would cease to exist.

    7. @greydragon412 yeah.

    8. @greydragon412 A lot of the better torrent trackers examine the ratio from your client and don't let you get files unless you've got a history of seeding.
