Re: Dime down ?

I can't download from dime. I admit I've got a long running issue with them. They demoted me to user only because I dared to argue with mods about 10 years ago - so rather than interact with them, does anyone why downloads might not work?
I run malwarebytes, I've ensured an exception is in place for Qbittorrent, and a download from here has worked this morning, but torrents from dime are still not working.
I do have only 24% ratio on there, but I can't increase that if I can't upload there (as I'm user only) and can't jump on a new torrent and get involved in sharing that, because downloading from there isn't working.
I'll run the gamut of dealing with them by email if no-one here has recent experience of this and can think of any solutions.
So, thanks in advance if anyone here has any tips.

I think you've gotta seed back your older torrents there until your ratio improves. I'd pick out some older things and play "keep alive" with them and keep seeding until someone comes along and searches old torrents and grabs it from you. When your favorite pet torrents are found and grabbed, you'll probably be the one seeding and get your ratio improved enough to get raised back to a good downloader status again... Maybe.

But what do I know - there is a certain amount of bullshittery with some mod decisions there and we all know it! haha! I don't know their reasoning on lots of stuff. Share ratios matter - at least there. Here it only is there for a name and shame thing but we don't enforce any of it. But your ratio kinda sucks just as bad here! haha!

Bottom line is, seed. Lots. 100% not 25% or less like you've been doing. Stick with seeding. Leave the computer on 24/7 - mine heats my apartment! Winter is coming. Maybe you can fix your mistake and get the ratios back to respectable levels... Good luck!

If only it were that easy.

Three of my old torrents are still present there, BUT, I did not keep them exactly as I seeded them.

Free leech days should be coming next week if you can hold out, they seem to always do it the week of Christmas through the first week of January.

They're enforcing the minimum ratio criteria of 0.25 to allow you to leech so unless you can get it higher you won't be able to.
