Ghosting
The act of ghosting on private torrent trackers is achieved by first downloading the .torrent, opening the file in your torrent client then once connected to a good amount of peers, the user then goes to the properties of the torrent connection and removes the private tracker "Tracker URL". In effect, unseen by the private torrent website's ratio counting systems. Used to get files for free without adding to your downloaded amount thus having a higher membership ratio.
