====== Common mistakes ======
Most users that join do not read the wiki dive in and just download what they want. That might be a great idea on a public tracker, but not on private trackers like ExYuSubs. 
  - Do not sort your torrents by leechers: part seeders will also show as leechers (but aren't).
  - Do not download packs that are not freeleech, see no. 1.
  - Do not start your career with unpopular stuff unless you know what you're doing.

Also:
  - Do use our outside seeding guides (see below).
  - Do ask for [[how_to_join_tl_irc|help]] if you have questions.
  - Do take your time to pick your first torrents.

====== My torrents aren't seeding ======
You will only upload when someone else on ExYuSubs wants to download that very same torrent. We have a finite userbase, and not many people will want "Some.nice.Movie.2023". If you grab something nobody else wants your [[user.ratio|ratio]] will tank and eventually you will be [[everything_about_warnings|warned]]. If you are reading this before your ratio is gone, then use our guides below to quickly get a bit of a buffer and before long you will be able to download what you really want.

====== Help, I've tanked my ratio anyway ======
Once your ratio is gone, there are no quick solutions. You will need to put in some effort to fix what you've done. Your options in a nutshell:
  * Outside Seeding (Big tip: check out our [[https://www.exyusubs.com/reqall.php|reseed requests]] to find content to easily reseed)
    * [[outside_seeding_with_utorrent|Outside Seeding for uTorrent]]
    * [[guide_to_outside_seeding_for_vuze|Outside Seeding for Vuze]]
    * [[outside_seeding_with_rutorrent|Outside Seeding for ruTorrent]]
  * Get a [[seedboxes.all.you.need.to.know|seedbox]].
  * You can [[https://www.patreon.com/exyusubs/membership|donate]] to get temporary immunity to the warning system. This will **NOT** grant you free download perks.
