I wonder if I should go for 1 super batch of Shinsengumi. Might be tough on downloader's HDD but it'll be simplier to keep 1 torrent permanently seeded than many.

I think you should.

If users have small hdds, I suggest switching to a bittorrent program which allows file selection such as BitComet/Azureus. (DL the first 4 gigs and seed then burn. Then dl the next 4gigs and repeat.)

I think it's a great idea to have that but just worried might start attracting lots of leechers for it. Tongue

But cant wait to see what you do Ruroshin

Is there any way you can tell which series are most frequently unseeded?

If that was possible, I think those series would be the best candidates.

This is a great idea. On top of my head would be Oyaji. ITs a great drama with no seeds.

What about if we you have permenent seeding that changes every month like series of the month at least hopefully that will be just jumping to conclusions here

2 Kdrama series
2 Jdrama series
2 C/TWdrama series

that way mostly all dead torrents get revived without having to wait for VSS and assurance that can benefit ppl that never got to download those series before and also that there is a rotation so that what ever ppl missed they can hopefully get it from the permanent seeding section

That's just my opinion how i see it can benefit everyone Ruroshin so in other words it's like having 3-4 permanent series of the month.

Woot! great idea ruroshin, permanent seeding. Which means I can leech guilt-free mwahahahah!!!! If it were up to me (and I can probably represent everyone on the tomoya nagase thread) I would place all dramas with naga-kun in it. But since I know not everyone is as crazy about nagase as we are, I'd say we should plonk dramas on there by requests. 2000 GB is a lot of space. the average jdrama takes less than 4 GB and the average kdrama takes up 7 to 10 GB batch. 2000 GB is more than enough for fanwork lol.

Don't worry we will keep clicking on those ads.

that would be a great idea, especially since everybody seems to upload all these awesome series at once. you always feel stuck in the middle trying to figure out what series to collect when you have limited hd space.

I could reserve some space for that. I'll give it more thought.

After the frustration ... Crying Sad pale Crazy ....(can I say this, since this downloading is free of charge?...anyway...)...of several dl stuck at 9x,x % for days and several unheard pleads for seeding, I was thinking this is no fun Sad anymore and what a shame of all the effort of so many people put into translating, subbing, uploading, etc...of these TV drama's and other. This material is in fact only available, if you are here at the right moment.

So, I was thinking Idea , if everybody, that is downloading from this side, would reserve some space on his harddrive for permanent seeding of some material in return for downloading tons of GB of other stuff from this site, wouldn't that make life much easier? No more unfinished dl's, no more "shouting", no more waiting, no more searching of other sources and no more "annoying" requests from leechers to seeders and uploaders. Sounds great, no? Big Smile

I am willing to be the permanent seeder of, let's say, the kdrama My Name is Kim Sam Soon and the Kim Sam Soon NG. If I should not be able to seed any longer for whatever reason, I will try to find someone else to pass the torch on to.

Btw, this seeding as long as you can after one has downloaded something is not really working imo, because... when may I stop seeding? I have only have so much space on my HDD and I would like to continue to download other things. Result: unfinshed dl's for latescomers.

If there would be permanent seeders for every torrent, I could stop right after I have finished the dl without feeling guilty and causing "trouble".

what do you think? Is this feasible?

Just do it.


seeding is nice but it's no fun without leechers. Seed what you love...I mean seed what you want to seed, but just let someone like Jholic know so that they can promote it.

I was a closet seeder for a while but once I realized I should tell people I'm seeding and got with jholic, he got the banners and such up and I got many more peers showing up, which made everything faster.
