Hey guys-
jcrouse just pointed out something to me. On [romsite name redacted], if you do a search for my username, it shows I only have a share ratio of 0.14. However, in my Azureus, it shows that I have a ratio of 0.902 as of now. That's a pretty big discrepency between the two. Can someone explain why this is?
[romsite name redacted] even shows the last time I accessed the site, which was today- so I don't think it's an updating issue. If they know the last time I accessed the site, they would know my current share ratio. Can someone explain? I just don't want to get banned, all while I was thinking I had a decent share ratio going on...

All those "it started downloading from the beginning" efforts is my bet.
What I found is that if you downloaded something and selected the wrong thing (yes, I know I thought I had the right folder too, but it was something stupid I selected, I bet the same thing happened to you), it would start from scratch.
You REALLY need to find some sort of tutorial on how to set up Azureus properly - they've got links somewhere there on how to do this for most popular torrent progs - before you DO get the boot there. It seems they're pretty strict and don't much care what your reason is, and the only solution you'll be given is a short reprieve to upload until your ratio gets back in line with their standards.
If it's DL'ing in the background (meaning you can't PHYSICALLY eyeball that potential download that's going on), you may have re-downloaded the entire thing again and dragged your ratio into the crapper. I'm tellin' ya, get and use the old version torrent to quickly raise your ratio as soon as possible after getting closer to back in line.

Hey-
I just looked in my MAME098 Game Previews directory and saw a folder titles 'roms'. It has all the roms in zipped format in there (about 12GIG on disk). I must've moved that folder in there on accident. I assume it's not part of the Mame Preview packs- but- can you guys confirm that if I move it out of that directory, I wont screw up these downloads (ie- screw up the seeding) of these packs?
Thanks
BTW- got my ratio up from 0.14 to 0.69 yesterday... WHEW! That was a close call...

Yeah, that's the plan. Im going to download some other stuff so I can turn around and upload it again to get the ratio up higher. It really helped changing to uTorrent, as my file upload speed went from 4k to 50-60k with uTorrent yesterday. Azureus sucks. I'm going to seed for a few more weeks and really get my ratio cranked up there so I can download anything I want and not worry about it.
Im also just going to move that directory and see what happens...
Thanks
