I know that private trackers require users to maintain a good seed ratio. How exactly does that work out mathematically? If a bunch of users have seed ratios above 1, does that mean that there are some users who will forever be below 1, and thus end up getting kicked out, thus resulting in the private tracker just… shrinking over time?
On some trackers you can straight up pay to raise to raise your ratio, or even temporarily “freeleech”. This is all kinds of iffy, flirting with the scummy.
