Ratio guilt
I just realized I'm the leecher you probably hate. I've torrented various content for years, and never cared about seeding. When the download was done, I pulled the plug.
I setup a self-hosted automated media streaming stack this past weekend and decided that I need to have every single season downloaded of a few shows I regularly watch (~1tb total). Today, as the last few torrents stall due to there being no seeders, I finally realized that I am the part of the issue. lesson learned, I probably don't need all 20 seasons of southpark when I watch, at most, one season per month.
tldr my ratio is a pathetic 0.20 but slowly climbing.
