A few months ago I grabbed this torrent from rarbg, and it took weeks to download. Often going days with no seeders.
I finally got it, and decided I’d seed beyond my usual 2x to help others get this. Then rarbg went under, and now I think I’ll just keep this one going.
When rarbg went down I immediately went and for any torrent I still had loaded in my client I quadrupled my normal ratio (3.5 -> 12.00). Then I also just increased my ratio generally.
I wish I had more disk space to keep things going even longer, but I really gotta cycle stuff out unfortunately.
When rarbg went down I waited a couple weeks for straghlers then stopped seeding all rarbg torrents. Is there a reason to? How will people even find these torrents?
There are archives of all the rarbg magnet links. I still use them to successfully find stuff. As long as those links are out there it is still possible to help people out.
Can’t people still find them from DHT and PEX or whatever they’re called?
yep
There is a specific magnet link you can get a specific sql file from. Inside is a cool database containing a big amount of records of torrent magnets which you can input into the tracker and download.
