Raise a Ratio (Upload/Seed?)

Hello,
I am new to the world of torrents and I am completely lost!
I was able to download a series on the first day but now nothing is loading...
It seems that it's a ratio problem (which is too low), and that I need to upload or put my already downloaded files in "Seed", unfortunately I have reorganized-renamed-deleted everything after downloading...
I do not understand at all how to solve this problem and improve my ratio...
Somebody to help me???

Thank you in advance!!!

Configuration: Windows Vista / Firefox 3.5.9

    to boost your ratio
    you let it run until the end of the download at 100%

    if you want to move the movie elsewhere, just copy and paste instead
    if you move the file, it's gone and it won't continue seeding

    so basically, that's what you've done
    so for that one, it's over

    you say that others aren't downloading
    sometimes it's normal, either the torrent no longer exists
    or the sources (people who have the file) aren't sharing or aren't sharing anymore

    it doesn't work like Emule
    the more sources there are, the faster it is

      Thank you for your response, but I thought I understood that it was no longer loading because my ratio was too low; below 0.75, downloads get blocked. Now I'm wondering: Is there a way to get these damned torrents back to seed? ^^ Otherwise, my ratio will never go up, and I feel like I'm in a dead end!

      if it's still on your computer and you've moved the files elsewhere

      just try pasting them back into your downloads folder
      or wherever the torrent sends them

      after that, yes some sites block you if your ratio is too low
      and then it's either you find another one or you make a donation


      sometimes it doesn't load because of the ratio if the site has blocked you
      but often it's because the torrent doesn't have many sources
      because if it was the site, you wouldn't even be able to send it to your torrent
      they would have already blocked you when you selected it

      Ok... I found 411Torrents amazing when I discovered it! I made the mistake of diving in without doing a little research on how to use this kind of site! So be it! Thanks for your explanations, if I understand correctly, I either make a donation! or I find another site... However, one last question, I've always used Limewire to download, I understand that it's not great for downloading torrents? So I'm thinking of getting uTorrent but I'm wondering if it's worth it?
      Thanks again for your insights!^^

      yes you need to find a private site that's the best

      1 it's well managed
      2 pretty well controlled less chance of pests
      3 it shares

      concerning lime only for music exclusively
      and still there are a lot of junk

      videos etc it's 99% pests no need

      it's better torrent than lime
