Where the fuck did i say that then Babs?You have taken someone elses quote & put my name to it!!!
On QZ there is no such thing as tons of lossless
I only download DVD material & i seed back 1 to 1...nothing more & nothing less!!I'm not one of these bullshitters that say "i will seed back 3 times the amount etc"...those ARE the hit & runners because they feel that by saying it it can't be them running.
Plus most of my collection has come via trades or taping myself and what i do trade..i wait to see if its a conversion before i send good stuff in return...if its a conversion ,i send it back with a messege saying dont try & con me son.
Yes i trade under a different name and a few people here know it....maybe i have traded with you ;)
Anyway,i dont moan or bitch...i'm trying to get thru to the fuckin' thick turds on QZ about preserving quality.....thats wrong is it?
You should take a look at some of your video collection...did they all look like that when it was filmed?I think not...QZ tossers obliterated them because they feel a file size is more important than quality
AND even when its DVD it gets fucked 1/2 the time.
Take Houston 77..fucked from the start.It came from a master 2 inch tape so it should be NTSC.
It was converted to PAL by some QZ amature before release on here,thats why that version stutters.
Im just glad my sources come from before it ever reaches here and it lets you know why new material is released on every other site but here 1st...cos they know the score

Speaking of "thick" ... :)
Where are your brains when you yourself are concerned?:)

If you know that much, you surely know that the wrong NTSC --> PAL conversion was done before Queenzone was even created. Yes, the conversion was done by an amateur, aren't we all amateurs when it comes to sound or video conversion/editing/mastering?
Except for a few people who happen to be professionals?
I really doubt we ever "traded", I do not swap with rude people.

I can totally relate to the people who can't afford the disc space. When I downloaded my first torrent from QueenZone I was using a Pentium at 100 Mhz (!!!) with less than 4 GB of available space (!!!). My download speed at the time was somewhere in the region of 10-20 KB/s. The torrent was a DivX version of Brian May's VH1 acoustic show and I'm proud to say that after I finished downloading I kept seeding until everyone was finished.
My PC is much better now - Celeron at 3,33 GHz and sometime in the next few weeks I'm planning to buy a brand new 250 GB hard drive. Unfortunately I don't have Internet access at home at the moment (typing from work right now), but I'll be back on track in a month or two. When I do I'll have a download/upload speed of 100-150 KB/s and I promise to "adopt" at least a few torrents. I have on my hard drive the Live Killers 4 DVD special, which I downloaded from Bokkepot on the Hub. As soon as I'm back online I'll be seeding the hell out of it. Plus, I missed most of the 2005/2006 DVD's so I'm hoping I'll be able to download them, either from the Hub or from the tracker. As soon as they're on my hard drive I'll keep seeding until everyone's done.
But I digress. It's true, there are people here who can't afford to seed everything they download, either because of hardware limitations or because of bandwidth limitations. But surely that's not the case for EVERYONE who ever downloaded a torrent from QueenZone and did not seed. And the only way I can see that changing is by installing a new tracker system. Something in the lines of this:
http://www.thepinkfloyd.co.uk/
I don't mean to slag off Richard or any other of the wonderful people working on the QueenZone site, but is it really THAT DIFFICULT to install a proper torrent tracker? That's the best (only?) way to track down leachers. I realize that QueenZone's policy has always been to make it as democratic as possible, but perhaps the state of the union (ha-ha!) is a bit TOO democratic. It's very easy for democracy to become anarchy and in my opinion QueenZone is dangerously treading that line.
No offence intended, I just wanted to express my opinion on the matter.
Kind regards from yours truly in Bulgaria,
Vlad

I gladly help seeding and I am willing to adopt torrents.

The other night I could not re-seed the Barcelona DVD although the tracker was online and I had not moved the DVD. The seeding just did not start.
The sharing ratio - many people upload 2 and more copies until they finally finish their download. They can close the client right after finishing because the sharing ratio is reached as soon as the download is finished. We need people to share because they want to and because they care about the community.[/QUOTE]
What´s wrong with Barcelona 93?. It happened exactly the same thing with me. After i´ve finished the downloading i have tried to seed it and it didn´t connect to anyone. I´m having some trouble seeding with BitComet for some unknown reason. It downloads big time and seeds great while the torrent is downloading, and then when the torrent is complete, for some unknown reason it stops!- And it has not reach the 100% ratio.
I think i have to move some torrents to uTorrent.
There are times that i can´t seed right away. This normally happens when i have too many torrents. I leave then in my hard drive just in case.
I would be an hypocrite to say that i have seeded everything at least to the 100% ratio. I have opted to seed the longer files like DVD´s and let the Flacs for others to seed. I am allways seeding 3 or 4 files for Queenzone and my goal was that other people will do the same.

People in Queenzone like quality as well!
The reason you see smaller files being shared here is bacause some people couldn´t download the bigger files. I´ve downloaded the Hyde Park 2005 file that Raf posted the other day. He did that for a friend and he shared the end result here, just in case someone wanted to see.
Of course the file is heavilly compressed, but i am thankfull that he shared that untill i put my hands in the DVD´s set. I´ve missed the first time because i had 10 GB of avaiable download in the time it was shared, so i really couldn´t afford to download that. Now i have unlimited download, but i know the effort Raff has made to share that 1 GB file, because he has 10 GB download every month.
It´s not the perfect situation but many people in other countries have this kind of internet services (i´m from Portugal).
Now, if Torrents live at least 2 or 3 months, those people would balance their monthly downloads and in the end everyone is satisfied.
It´s obvious that you don´t like this site and it´s people, but if you want to change behaviours, maybe you should be the example for others to follow.
Would you be able to transfer video files if someone asks you to? Since this is your expertize area you could guive a hand in this. And i´m serious, many people have the VHS and don´t know how to trasfer the film to the computer with the best quality.
If you could write something about it, i´m shure we would apreciate to read. You don´t need to write extensive stuff, but if you could share the basics that would be very helpfull.

That's EXACTLY why I did NOT download Hyde Park 2005 from the torrent, Shawy kindly uploaded it for me on Rapidshare looooooong ago over about 3 months. If the torrents here lasted THAT long, it would've been easy for be to download them, perhaps 1 per month, without having to pay an expensive bill for downloading more than I was supposed to.

Seed back 1 to 1?
What's wrong with seeding a bit more?
Maybe if instead of considering GBs you considered time, the torrents would last longer and people wouldn't have to wait for a lossy copy.
Considering while we're downloading we're also seeding, sometimes by the time we finish a download we've already seeded pratically 100%. As far as I know, the idea of torrents isn't seeding back what you download, but seeding more. The original uploader never uploads just 1 complete copy, he always has to seed the equivalent to several complete copies by the time there's another seeder available. So maybe you should think of the original seeder and of how much he struggles to keep a torrent going.
You sound pretty much like a grab and run leech who's afraid of admitting that you don't even share 1:1.
I honestly think no one here should respect you and your views on sharing lossy files until you stop being a leech and decide to start a lossless torrent yourself, or at least until your IP is seen on people's clients with a particulary large share ratio.

You didnt read and take it in then prick.
Bit like you reading text files of DVD's that say not to compress to a lossy format & share.
I trade & when(once a year) a DVD comes up thats when i download.
So stick your head up your arse and see how well it fits you fucking trade pool polluter

Wow man. Simmer.
By the way, about the adopt-a-torrent thing, I could definitely help on a few torrents. My computer was backed up for a while until today, so I'll definitely be able to help.

Go share ratio, go share ratio... GOOOOOOOOOO SHARE-RA-TI-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH!!!
Why don't we use a real torrent server with ratio.
For my part, my bitornado is set to upload 800% of the torrent, it means that I share 8 times the DVD or gig whatever its size.
Please, put a a real torrent server (etree for example) with ratio ! So that people download and share.

That wouldn´t work, because many people don´t care if they seed or not, because they only use Queenzone for leech. They don´t write in this board at all. There are months that Queenzone has 2.000.000 hits!
This is just a commitment for those who care about this things. I´ve taken so much from this site that i´m willing to get something back by keeping the torrents alive.
In the end, everyone will benefit from it, even the leechers, but i think that if a few people set the example, then more people will follow.
I don´t want people seeding torrents against their will. I want this to be something that comes natural to people, when they realize that others have seeded for them too!
