I try my best to be respectful and "generous" on torrent sites. Is there something more profound about Demonoid that I need to be cautious of?

No. It's a semi private tracker. Although you will see the demonoid tracker,you'll sometimes notice "open" trackers as well. Not the end of the world.

They are actually pretty laid back, they don't really concern themselves too much with ratios, there's no real rule on them. About the only things you have to be careful with is commenting and adding torrents. One thing Demonoid does really well is keep the trojans and virus's off their network. One thing tho, beware the "external" torrents.

An easy way to get your ratios up is to grab the ipad stuff, I got 2.2 TB uploaded and 200GB downloaded just by grabbing movies formatted for the ipad and keeping them up a couple days. But like I said, the ratios aren't too big of a deal, I haven't seen anyone get a warning and there's people with ratios of .50 that I see post all the time.

I learned a LONG time ago to always allow for what I downloaded to be uploaded equivalently. Just a practice I've maintained. So, I should be good to go there. What would be the difference between and internal and an external torrent? Do you mean if I start downloading a torrent from some other source and then I somehow upload it to Demonoid?

An external torrent is one from another tracker that is cross-posted to Demonoid. I don't think it counts toward your ratio.

BTW, I've been using uTorrent for years, and ever since I started my Demonoid ratio hasn't updated. Just to be a good citizen I try to achieve a 1.00 ratio or higher before I stop seeding, but my 1.38 overall ratio has remained unchanged for quite some time.

Another good way to boost your ratio though is to seed live bootlegs - even if it's stuff you don't care to listen to. If you latch on to a popular one you can upload for quite a while, plus it's a legal file if the artist consented to the recording.
