Question: On IPT there is a list of my "torrents that require seeding." As long as I maintain a decent ratio does this list matter? Is there any consequence if it grows too large?

Yeah, you'll get a hit&run warning at 15 or 20 torrents. Just use your bonus / upload credit to zap them away.

Anyone able to throw any invites my way? I have been searching for torrents with no success lately ever since demonoid closed down i've been unsure of where to go for my torrent needs.

Let me know, thanks!

I have 2 IPT invites as well. Just don't be a shithead that will keep a bad ratio like some people I've given invites to from this thread.

I recently upgraded my PC and have a fresh Windows install. Now, my torrents no longer seed after they have completed downloading. This is obviously not ideal. My Google research has provided far too many solutions for me to attempt to test them so I figured I'd bother the intelligent community here. Is this a port issue? I already have uPnP enabled - which I've read is necessary, but my ratio still tends to stop at a measly 0.1 for almost all of my downloads. Do I have to adjust settings on the router? Could this be an issue with uTorrent itself? Is uTorrent known as a shitty client? So many question, so little answers.

Windows Firewall is a good guess, so check that first. Did you port forward (in the router) previously before the fresh install? If so, it is possible the router is assigning your PC a new IP address and the forwarding isn't working anymore. If you weren't port forwarding, you should be, and it might have just been luck that it worked before.

uTorrent is what I use, and what most people use, but many of the newer versions are banned due to misreporting torrents, so if none of the router stuff is your problem and you just installed a fresh uTorrent, go back and find an older version that is approved by whatever sites you are using. I want to say I'm using something like 2.1.2 but that's just a guess since I'm at work. Point being though, they are well past version 3.0 now, so new isn't always better.

If none of that, you need to give us more details.
