You could scrape the current community and update the db that populates the new one with all the old posts maybe? including the original time stamps? Not sure if thats possible.

that was exactly the problem. I found a more desired torrent and now my ratio is safe 8-)

Thanks a lot. I edited my post, but i don't think the issue is as clear cut as just the server being slow due an overcrowded network like i thought at first. I just downloaded several gigs from it in under 15 minutes. Im just not seeing those speeds in my seeds. Maybe i have to pick better torrents to seed.

Be a lot cooler if they did
