Are you getting upload on public torrents with a large number of leechers, like YTS or similar? I’d test that first.
If you are getting upload on a large public torrent, then it’s because TorrentLeech is really hard to get real upload on; your best bet is to seed your TL torrents as long as possible (ideally forever) and build your ratio by buying upload from the points store.
If you’re not able to upload to public torrents then yeah it’s probably a setup issue.
This seems to be the thing. Thank you!
Glad I could help! Most of my TL ratio comes from the seeding time point system, but all of the torrents I have real ratio on are freeleech TV boxsets (which I find TL is pretty generous about providing). Seeding large-file-size torrents gives a bonus to the points generated, so if you have the space and find yourself gaining points too slowly to bring your ratio where you want it, I'd recco nabbing a few of those boxsets to seed long term as well.
Definitely gonna have to lean on that myself as well. Already looking at a few of the big freeleech farms- I don't have infinite space but there's always room for a couple hundred gigs of Studio Ghibli lol
