    Yes, we know he attempted to cheat prior to the Mosley fight. What's wrong Gaz? You seem rather keen to get into an argument, one involving semantics no less.

    Unless I'm wrong,its nothing to do with your own connection.Like I said,I might be wrong.I'll see if theres one out there where you're not bound by any contracts etc. and can cancel any time and see what the crack is

    Not at all, if you meant the cheating in the Mosely fight affects your enjoyment of the Cotto fight then fair enough, I can understand that, but at first reading you post looked to me like you were referring to cheating in the Cotto fight.

    If I've got the wrong end of the stick, I apologise. I'm not trying to nitpick semantics to start a row, I genuinely misunderstood the meaning of your post.

    If, on the other hand, I didn't get the wrong end of the stick and have interpreted your post correctly.....

    I've not really read your opinion on the Hatton fight yet Gaz because when there are lots of threads about the same thing I tend to not bother until the furore has subsided somewhat. Sum up your feelings to me briefly. Feel free to PM if you don't want to clog up the thread.

    That's wildly speculative but I digress. I didn't write my comment to spark a debate over that particular controversy again. Feel free to PM if you like though as this isn't really the place for such talk.

    Guys if you are going to **** the downloads for old fights it WILL kill your ratio. Nobody apart from you is going to be downloading those particular fights, and as such you will not be seeding only leeching. You can't upload if there is nobody to upload to.

    Best suggestion is to download new fights as soon as they are out. They have plenty of activity. If you can't upload then there is a problem on your hardware such as a router or firewall. Check the ports your torrent client requires and open them in your router's settings. This differs slightly from router to router.

    Thats a factor for me as well, Nevada are supposed to be a lot more strict on this type of thing than Cali.


    The slowest point in a connection generally governs the end speed. Those points are called bottlenecks, you can have a lot of liquid in a bottle but it can only come out as quickly as it comes down the neck of the bottle.

    TBH mate, I still havn't looked at the actual fight objectively yet but I think the general situation is that Hatton has has a decent enough career (esp. when put in a British context) but has been founding wanting at the very top level. I'd like to see him retire now, I don't see how any win he could realistically pull off would be good enough to change anyones opinion of him (no matter what that opinion is).

    Yeah my ratio went too low, but luckily I downloaded pacquiao vs morales so my ratio went back up pretty quickly considering it was not a 'new' fight.

    Yeah bud I use a Shared Dedicated server (bit different from a seedbox, but same principle)

    Your connection has nothing to do with the seedbox speed, you will get 100 mbps, which equals download and upload speeds up to 11 mb/s.

    It is worth it if you download alot of stuff on private trackers, and if you can afford it. I pay 19 Euros a month for mine.

    If your looking into this specifically to get your ratio up on WBVA or other sites then you could just have one for a month. I've uploaded about 750 gb in 1 month on WBVA.

    There are shitloads of them about so just look into it.

    So you're basically just renting time on a server?

    Yeah thats it mate.

    I personally love it, the time it takes to download stuff is unreal....and if you know some people who haven't found out easy it is to download stuff from the internet you can just sell a few dvds each month and it pays for itself :thumbsup
