i cant seed 24/7 reason high price of electricity
Haha sure.
You could build yourself a PC/server that consumes only little electricity and use that to seed.
Or get an account on a usenet server / comparable and then leech.

You might be right that on elite trackers you often waste electricity without uploading, so stay away from these trackers or try to leech without cheating.

As far as I've understood, the tracker admins have made no progress in successfully distinguishing a GT user. That's all I need to know, to keep on using this tool and seed only when I like to.

I do seed, when I am sure what I'm seeding is good content, and when the life of that torrent is at stake. I don't like seeding just to keep my ratio up. To maintain my ratio, I prefer using GT. And you bet, its a damn good tool at it.

4000kbps/128kbps ( = 500kB/s / 16kB/s)

To be fair I usually only get 200kB/s on torrents, but that's still more than half a day seeding for each hour I download - as* I can seed at full speed!

Agreed.

However if you have a 20/1 connection I can't see how you can complain.... a 4.5GB torrent must take all of 30 minutes to download. Surely you can manage to seed it back for a few hours while you play games/watch a movie/study?
