Answer 3

Seeding is great yeah as it allows other people to upload the file faster allowing more people to seed making the download nuts fast : D

Don't be a leacher and download the file then delete the torrent for no one else to download : )

Answer 4

seeding means uploading ( giving peace's of the torrent to other users ) , for better ration allow torrent to reach at least 1.5 upload ration before quieting , do not download or upload multiple file ( stick with 5 up and 5 down unless you have really good ISP , like 20MB/s download and 10MB/s upload speed ) . Join torrent share site which requires registration and have internal rating system ( they have good torrents and will encourage you to upload more then you download ) .
