background; i had all my torrents seeding forever and i never set a limit mostly because when i set up qbittorrent i was new and never really went into options.

i want to be able to control and limit the bandwidth i use but is 50kb/s during the day/10kb/s at night unreasonable? i dont want to be rude or make it hard for people to get things but i also just don’t want thinks to balloon out of control (before i just keep everything in seeding perpetually just because i never bothered to look).

am i being unreasonable with limits? i obviously dont want to download and just stop; i always want to at least share back to at least 1.

these are mostly public trackers btw

thanks <3

    I would like to see some kind of conservative, standardization on how to organize files like music and TV shows so we can keep seeding the same torrent after it’s finished. As it stands right now, unless you want a lot of “branding” in your files, you have to remove all of the noise which means you no longer have the exact files the swarm is looking for.

    There are some torrents that do it right, and hats off to them.
