If you have access to private trackers, you have a moral duty to reupload to public trackers.

By putting up with byzantine rules and regulations to share content with others, you martyr yourself for the good of mankind.

The torrent already exists. I upload a duplicate torrent with the same exact files and the seedboxfags instantly snatch it up. I then remove the torrent from AB, but keep the file loaded in my torrent client. I don't get the upload credit, but I do get upload from seeding

>>47543851
Yeah. I'm running through the CDs in my parents home, got some perfect FLACs out of it, some duds. Still have some to go.

I don't think this is the kind of music the average WCD user from my country would like to download

>>47543882
You must have a shit connection or your client isn't set up properly. Your downloads keep stopping at less than 10% for me. This might be part of why you can't get much upload.

>>47543831
It's been proven again and again that anons are shit private tracker users.

Even if a couple of us aren't assholes, it's not really worth wasting an invite/risking getting banned for an anon.

>>47543918
I have 5 Mbps upload bandwidth. I think all of it was being used. I've freed some bandwidth so that you can download.

>This might be part of why you can't get much upload.

Well, I leave all my torrents seeding so the decision of which specific one to seed gets left up to my client. Not sure if there's a better way. I wish I had more bandwidth but I don't.

>>47543957
I have 256 kbps upload bandwidth... (I mean kilobits, not kilobytes... AKA 32 KB/s, take overhead)

>>47543957
you can set specific torrents to high priority in any decent torrent client. also,

CartoonChaos is beyond disappointing.

Seedboxes...are they worth it? For privacy? For speed? For not having your comp seeding 24/7?

>>47542885
Check this guy who can't get any. Gtfo. You don't deserve shit, public tracker pleb. I hope you never get on a top private tracker.

>>47543979
I know that feel. I was subjected to that exact speed not too long ago.

Now I have 50 Mbps download bandwidth but upload bandwidth is sadly still pretty narrow.

>>47543986
Someone here mentioned that there are scripts running that automatically harvest bandcamp and upload to WCD.

How can I beat them?

Does anyone know on which trackers PTP and BTN recruit? I'm a What.CD power user, and they're not in the invite forum.

>>47544023
>How can I beat them?
You can't, but they miss shit all the time.

Around 10 or so torrents I've upped should have already been there but weren't for whatever reason.

Just go back very far, and do some crossref.

>>47544012
Depends on your home connection.

What are some other good private trackers with a ratio model like BTN?

I seed 24/7 but hardly get any credit due to my terrible upload speeds.

>>47544023
>Someone here mentioned that there are scripts running that automatically harvest bandcamp and upload to WCD.
if there are they aren't very quick and certainly aren't exhaustive. See for yourself, just check out the newest ambient albums and test which are on what: https://bandcamp.com/tag/ambient?sort_field=date
I've checked the first few and they're not there

>>47544088
>with a ratio model like BTN
AKA not having one?
There aren't any. BTN only has it's model because most torrents are removed so soon after they're uploaded, and having any other model would make it impossible for them to operate

>>47544012
Depends on the trackers you use as well.

For example, if you only used TSH, GFT, BTN, MTTV, it's probably unnecessary to have a seedbox... unless, of course, you're contributing and have a low upload speed. With a seedbox you'd be able to upload it to the seedbox, then just seed from there so the download is faster for everyone else.

If you use trackers with a ratio-based system like most of us, it depends on your upload speed. If it's a slow upload link, perhaps... < 25 mbps, it's probably worth it. If not, then it's up to you - there could still be a reason you want a dedicated box with it's own link (e.g. so you can fully utilize your home link's upload for streaming/uploading videos, etc.)

>>47544096
Yeah, they're certainly being ignored. I'll keep that in mind. I think I'll start uploading these once I'm through with my discs. There's some albums I actually like and it looks like I can trump some torrents with a 100% FLAC.

How would I go about doing that? I just upload a "dupe" then report the old torrent with trumping as the reason?

>>47544147
Yep, pretty much.

>>47544147
it helps to include the link to your 100% torrent when you report the older one

>>47544088
TSH is a general/0day tracker that is ratioless.

GFT is also a ratioless 0day (scene) tracker. It does have some P2P content, but not a lot.

MTTV is a TV tracker very similar to BTN (except newer and not as good). It's ratioless as well... if you're on BTN, I wouldn't bother with it though.

>>47543831
The only way to risk your account is by breaking anonymity, which you shouldn't do on 4chan anyway.

>>47544012
I have a small one to mostly keep shit seeding 24/7 and don't ever worry about ratio. My PC is on my bedroom and i dislike to have it running at night.

>>47544192
Like the guy above just did?

Just don't invite other people and you should be fine.

>>47544037
BTN recruits on PTP. ;)

Only one I'm telling you - I don't really like people joining a tracker just to get invites. If you list the trackers you're on/want to get onto, and give me a temporary email from https://www.guerrillamail.com, I will tell you if any of them have recruitment threads.

>>47544177

>>47544142
>If it's a slow upload link, perhaps... < 25 mbps, it's probably worth it.
I got massive ratio on PTP, GGn, What, and SCC with an upload link far less than that. All you have to do is seed everything you ever download, forever. Get enough of a seed library and you'll always have a little buffer trickling in, which adds up.

>>47544012
I've had no issues with ratio, but I still got a seedbox a couple months ago. The main reason I got it was to easily fill requests for my friends (they all have their own FTP account on the server); in return, they chip in on the cost, so I get to have a seedbox for $7.50 a month. I also like having an extra layer protection when torrenting.

It's nice for other stuff though. I use it as a VPN which comes in handy often. I can also use it as a cloud service, a webserver, a media streaming service. I'll be going to a dedicated box soon which should be fun since then I'll get to toy around with running a Linux server.

The box also makes it a lot easier to stay under my data cap. In the past I've blown straight through it twice over thanks to busy torrents. Now all my data usage just comes from downloading. And it does do nice things for ratio. For example, today GTAV appeared on GGn. Normally I would have held off on it since it wasn't a scene release and it's 60 fucking gigs, but since I could just choose to not download it from the server and it was freeleech I figured why not. A couple hours later and I've already uploaded 133GB on that torrent, which thanks to the freeleech is 133GB of pure buffer, all made in just a couple hours off a single torrent.

>>47544513
>I got massive ratio on PTP, GGn, What, and SCC with an upload link far less than that.

Oh, no doubt you can do it, it just takes more effort.

This is simply unacceptable.
It's because of oversights like this that I miss gold star posts to tweet out on https://twitter.com/ptgtxt

Why do iptorrent and torrentday get so much hate? They are far better than any of the ancient private trackers I used to use.

>>47544814
If you've heard that they get hate, then you've heard why.

>>47544814
iptorrent gets hate because the owner is accused of DDOSing other trackers by the hivemind reddit crowd whose subreddit is staffed by a PTP staff member 312c. No one other than that small reddit circlejerk believes this or cares about private tracker drama.

No idea about torrentday.

>>47544814
>Why do iptorrent and torrentday get so much hate?

Because they are scam trackers and they are shit compared to BTN, PTP, What, etc.

>>47544246
Why not just post it here? Why do you care if people join a tracker just to get invites?

>>47544878
Because collectors are faggots who take up slots that other people want.

Thank you.

Fuck collectors.

>>47544784

>>47544878
>Why do you care if people join a tracker just to get invites?

Because there's these people known as collectors. Such people are the lowest form of scum because they are people whose only goal is to have an account on every tracker and do the very minimum (logging in every 3 months) to keep their account. They barely seed. They barely download. They don't do anything for the community and they take up a slot that would be better filled by somebody who will actually seed/download.

The reason we keep things a secret is so that those people never find out how to get on other trackers and take up the slots that people want.

>>47544982

Probably inactivity pruning. Log in at least once every 4 months, and do what you said about maintaining ratios and not inviting bad users and your account should be safe forever.

Also never write or PM something that might piss off a moderator I guess. I stay away from the cancerous forums anyway.

It's not a hardware issue. It's a limited-staff and wanting to remain on the down-low issue.

Inactive users aren't a load on moderation

Might be faster to post here rather than on the forum:

I'm trying to upload an artist to WCD, but I just realized that the release dates they gave to their albums are bogus (1904-1909)

I don't know their actual release dates, so what can I do?

Just upload them with the given years?

>>47545578
More users = more staff needed.

They don't have the staff, so they cap the number of users to a manageable size.

>>47545620
is it from bandcamp? Just upload them with those years, might give some people a laugh. There were bandcamp albums upload before with release dated 2 years into the future.

>>47545620
Upload them with the given years. It's not your job to figure out if a date is bogus or not. Just put whatever date is on the album.

Actually they can be. An inactive account suddenly becoming active again has a good shot at being because it was compromised, or because the person is now using it as an established account to sell invites.

2) renting a remote seedbox for 10€

I don't really know how much power my PC eats up, but let's say it's an average desktop with 2010 hardware (mid-tier gaming pc), is it gonna cost more than 10€ if I leave it seeding like 100+ hours a week?
