Hey all, I know a lot of people are migrating to private torrent sites, and OK, that's a choice. However there are still a lot of people on the public torrents who are just leeching and not seeding.

I have several popular (old/classic) movies in my feed that I have uploaded (literally) 1000x the original and many more in the several hundred times. That's fine, I choose to support the community, but it's pretty depressing when I look at the seeders count and those movies have 2 or 3 other seeders.

This only works if you share. Please don't cut off as soon as you've downloaded.

And on a personal note, if anyone has audio or video files for "Machine Gun Fellatio" also listed as MGF could you please start seeding in particular

"MGF Pack 1"

"MGF+Pack+2"

"MGF+Pack+3"

If I can get the download completed I'll keep them up permanently, but unfortunately as they are obscure/rare I'm getting nowhere.

Rules don't permit me showing the torrent link of course. DM if that would help

My VPN doesn't allow port forwarding so I cannot seed. If anyone has advice to safely seed then I'm all ears. I've paid a long time ahead for my provider so I cannot switch.

You can seed without port forwarding, it just means the other side needs to have it.

Just keep your torrent client running and people will connect

You don't absolutely need port forwarding to seed. As long as the other side has a port open you'll be able to upload to them.

Also, are you sure you actually need a VPN? Most countries don't give a fuck about piracy.
