Question about torrent sites, and upload requirements

Hello,

I've been going around all kinds of torrent sites and many of them require you to "upload as much as you download". I fully understand why this policy is followed, and I agree with it.

I live in Israel. Israel, as you may or may not know, has a really crappy internet infrastructure. The bottom line is that the standard internet connection for regular people it 100MB download, 10MB upload. This means that unless I either pay for the "buisness connection" (you can get how much that costs) or move, I will only be able to upload about 1/10th of what I download. So, my question is this (your the unlucky site that that I was browsing and thought "damn, I need an aswer to this! ) : will a community with the above policy accept such a ratio, or will I be quickly banned for leeching?

Yours,
Hoping that he posted in the right forum.
