Ive always noticed some suspicious profiles on private trackers, where they have enormous ratio stats even though they don’t belong to a VIP tier/class. How do they achieve this? Do they use softwares like greedytorrents or ratioghost? If yes how do they go undetectable by the mods?
I’ve been looking up some remote forums from (sb-innovations.de) where there’s literally a group discussion on this.
It probably depends on the private tracker - the more serious ones take this issue more seriously. Trackers that are easy to get into and/or have easy ratio probably do not care very much. Many people just upload a ton of content, seed everything forever, race announces, have seedboxes, or some combination of the above.
I’m going to guess that ratio cheaters that you can notice will be even more obvious to staff.
