someone sounds butthurt, couldn't get into a private tracker?
I do miss wcd, I'm back to rutracker and blogspot now but I can't find a lot of stuff I'd like.

Because the other posters offered such serious and level-headed arguments, right

>>57411356
There's tons of people who take pride on not even seeding the stuff they get through public trackers, it's only natural someone would organize it better and keep worthless leechers away.

here, we see the mind of the autist, only capable of seeing in binary
watch as he assumes that there are only 2 states, sharing with everyone, or not sharing at all
it is inconceivable to him that sharing with just a few people, who are less likely to be working for the CIA, is something that people like to do
public tracker:
>wait 1 hour for vidya game to download
DDL:
>wait 2 hours for vidya game to download
>far better selection of vidya games than torrents
private tracker:
>spend several hours reading list of hundreds of rules and guidelines
>spend 5 minutes signing up account
>wait a week or two for admin to activate your account
>spend a few more weeks downloading and seeding shit you don't even want to build up ratio
>finally have enough ratio, wait 1 hour for vidya game to download
>realize private tracker doesn't have anything you couldn't already find a DDL link for
>but at least you're part of a secret underground internet piracy club now, so you feel like a real badass VIP cyberpunk and brag on 4chan about it all day

>wait 1 year and get a 50%+ discount on Steam
i only pirate music and movies and i do so with public trackers, what are they gonna do, honestly? Is comcast gonna send me another email, "hey you downloaded the Jurassic Park Soundtrack pls stop"
>>57411385
>being this autistic about torrents
>implying there is any reason to seed a torrent that already has plenty of seeders
do you also get upset about that guy that pisses all over the floor in public restrooms and shits on the toilet seat and pulls all the toilet paper and paper towels out throws it on the floor and purposely clogs the toilets with it and mashes the soap dispenser until there is soap all over the floor and none left in the dispenser and draws poop swastikas on the wall? because that guy is me and I don't seed my torrents either lmao stay mad moralcuck.
>>57411635
>implying my internet connection can possibly download any faster than 1000KB/s
>implying private trackers are any faster than public trackers for me
dead torrents with literally 0 seeders don't count. with DDL you never need to worry about seeders. I encounter dead torrents far more often than dead DDL links.

R u new?

FUCK PRIVATE TRACKERS

>directly funding DRM
>thinking you have the moral high ground
Buying games on steam/origin/other DRM/spyware platforms is worse than pirating them.
>>57411742
What DDL site do you use for games? Genuinely interested
lmao privatefags btfo
>>57413687
pcgames-download and IGG games for modern PC games
theisozone and archive.org for old PC games
archive.org, emuparadise, or one of the million other rom sites for console games
those are just the one I frequently use and have bookmarked, if I can't find what I'm looking for there there's plenty of other good DDL sites. always use a script blocker like uMatrix to block ads and browse the internet freely without fear of driveby malware/spyware. if a website doesn't function without enabling scripts, avoid it. the only site I listed above that requires scripts to function is theisozone.
