When is it acceptable to stop seeding? Whenever you feel. There's always other people that will seed, especially good downloads.

If you don't want to mess up your ratio, seed up to a ratio of at least 1.0. Depending on the tracker, you will be suspended if you go any lower than that.

i've never gotten a problem from trackers and my ratio was ridiculous and my speed never went down or got suspended. i say 'was' cause i havent used torrents in a while now..
also, i should note i'm on dial up. if i'm not the only one uploading, i think i get preferential treatment, and thankfully do not receive a penalty.
thats one scary photo to me, Realn0whereman.

We have nothing about discussing the technicalities about torrenting, however discussion about distinctive private tracker torrent sites is not permitted. Please bear this in mind when discussing Peer-to-peer software/networks.

I believe your question has been answered in my previous post, topic closed.
