Torrents: ᴘ2ᴘ ꜰɪʟᴇ ꜱʜᴀʀɪɴɢ @zerobytes.monster

What does the "-1" for seeds and leeches mean? And a question about ratios.

  1. So, I recently decided to install the search plugins on my client and I noticed an interesting phenomenon, some torrents come up with -1 for seeders. What does that mean? I've been able to download some of those torrents no problem.
  2. Another funny thing was I had downloaded this torrent from BTDigg and later joined a private tracked that had an identical torrent, so I thought I'd seed it. The client even asked if I wanted to merge them. But that torrent automatically was negatively included in my ratio. How do private trackers count the ratio?
  3. How do you handle re-checks? Right now I just keep back up copies of the files and wait. Is there a better way?
