I think the seeding requirement is not bad, but bytes uploaded is a bad metric when there's just not that much traffic.

Since bittorrent prioritizes peers with better bandwidth and so many people use servers with 10G connections, you won't get much upload off your home network. On some trackers I've been seeding 24/7 since I joined and uploaded only a few gigabytes. Fortunately many of them are generous with other ways to get credit for uploading so I've never had a problem.
