fuckin hell - i was on vacation for two weeks and today i
launched onik and it tells me:

"you have 3 days to increase your upload ratio"

shit fuck shit - i was sure that only sharing the downloaded
files will be sufficient but somehow nobody wanted my
seeds...

oink told me have to uplad new torrents but i just cannot
get it working.

i use utorrent - so i click on "create new torrent", select
the desired folder and click "seed"

ok - i save the file name and go to oink, click "upload" and
show him the file i created.

and what ? now i have to download the file i upladed to oink
they say but it doesn't work - ot won't start...

what am i doing wrong ? please help me because i don't want
to loose my account and i really want to share stuff :|

thx

This is why oink sucks ass. They're a bunch of cunts. You're
best off not using the site.

you do not need to download the file you uploaded, you just
need to right-click on the torrent you created and click
"Update tracker".

have you tried following the guide one of the Oink idiots
made?

i've had no problems whatsoever with oink. except that my
connection sucks ass and often the leechers get a greater
radio improvement than me wuth my own uploads.

I don't have anything no one else does. Thats the problem Im
having since uploading is the way to get a good ratio.

I aint had a single problem with Oink. If you have a problem
with it then just stick with Soulseek. However if you're
willing to follow their rules then you're guaranteed good
quality files and good speeds. And if you want to fake their
ratio then fine but you're not gonna stay on Oink for very
long.

Uploading files on there is a piece of piss, it took me
about 5 minutes to google how to do it. if you seach on here
then I made a very simple step-by-step guide to making
torrents for oink with uTorrent.

there is a fundamental mistake concerning Oink - the
ratio of amount of uploads to people that can actually
download is completely off kilter.

with most torrentsites, you'll download something and then
seeding alone will almost always be enough to keep your
ratio near 1.0

download something from Oink and you'll be amazed if you've
uploaded anything yourself - that'll be because the other 2
leechers are already done, just like you.

so what happens? to keep up their ratio, everyone starts
uploading any bit of sound they can find, which generates
even more torrents, etc. etc.

and Bogola certainly has a point - it is quite hard to find
things to upload.

besides all of this - the general mentality at Oink won't
win any prizes - lots of arrogance and snobbery. you may
only upload when you've ripped your files according to our 5
million handy rules, we're all about quality - it's hard to
remember we're still talking about a fucking torrentsite
here.

Here we go sadist, this was for the last time someone wanted
stuff:

File -> Create New Torrent, under Select Source click
Choose
Directory, and choose which directory you want to make a
torrent of.

(This step only needs to be done once)-> under Trackers
paste the url that is listed in the Upload section in the
Oink site. It should look something like :
http://tracker.oink.me.uk/tracker/xxxxxxxxxxxx/announce

Next click Create and Save as, and it'll ask you where you
want to put the .torrent file (I keep mine all together in
uTorrent program directory).

Now with that .torrent file you go onto the Oink upload
page
and you can click the browse button and then locate that
.torrent you just made. Now fill in the rest of the details
on the page and click the "Do It" at the bottom. This will
now send you a new torrent file and uTorrent (or whatever
client you use) should pop up.

Now choose the folder where all the mp3s were stored (note
that you may have to choose the folder one level up (eg. If
I made a torrent from the directory my_cds\autechre - gantz
graf, you choose the directory my_cds) as in uTorrent it
automatically appends the directory name that you first
made
the .torrent from). It should then hopefully count up to
100% and you'll be seeding it.

Tis a piece of piss.

If you get banned, cloak your IP and you'll be cool. I got
banned last year but I got back on and I've been doing OK
since.

(of course you'll need to find someone kind enough to give
your cheating ass an invite, ha... I don't want to get
banned now because that would be inconsiderate)

Ok, im using ratiomaster. Its working well. I upped my speed
a bit after a while. I hope it doesn't look obvious. Im at
70 kb upload. Is that too much? How do they catch people?

they have statistics of your downloads/uploads so if you had
like 35 kb upload for a few months before and now suddenly
70 they'll get suspicious.

matrigs@wp.pl if someone would be that kind....

Oink...

They just gave me a week's warning for uploading that great
Depeche Mode live in 1981 soundboard bootleg

because it has cassette in the lineage

My. Their loss I guess, but I don't get it; this thing was
freed so as to allow as many fans as possible to get it
(instead of buy it from bootleg sellers)... I guess they
only care about 'quality'

oh man now i get it!

i couldn't get any uploads running because i moved to
another location and the main server blocks everything...
DAMN

i now have to somehow contact the oinkers and tell them
that

BUT THE FUCKING CHAT DOESN'T WORK ARGHGHG

You didn't get caught? I thought it was really hard to cheat
on Oink. I'm thinking of doing it... my ratio has sagged
below .400 and I'm getting nervous.

BTW it's so lame and inconvenient that they disallowed
discography torrents. Ridiculously strict site. It's fucking
PIRACY, who cares about this organizational perfection.

I might risk it though. If only because now I'm so curious
to see if I can do it and live dangerously, and it's easy to
get back on anyway.
