Private trackers ruin the idea behind the free exchange of information on the internet. They take information and wall it off in their enclaves to satisfy their paranoia. They also don't even provide any additional security. It just takes letting in a single wrong person and the network is compromised.

Private trackers need to die. Support a free and open internet.

Public trackers emphasize the sharing of information. It's free to anyone. Restricting it to your little elitist club that doesn't allow everyone in harms the spread of information. It's actively malicious because if information were only available through private trackers then only small segments of society would have access to it, the ones that are deemed good enough by a group of plutocrats with their heads up their own asses. Just like governments.

>>60170772

Private trackers literally make you share the content. Public trackers don't. You have this backwards.

>>60170804
Sharing information is not an act of virtue, but simply a consequence of demand and supply. There's always going to be "leeching" because there's always more people in need of information than there is valuable information.

>>60170821
It's not an exchange of information if it's only one way. In both cases it's free. It's not a "secret club" as there's no particular rules about who joins but rather just what you do when you get there.

>>60170804
It's called public for a reason ya'know.
If you try to share something out from a private tracker and let them know they'll be on your ass.

>>60170772
Ah yes, my 0 seeder public trackers!

>>60170841
Only with the few trackers that have exclusives. 99% of content of those trackers aren't exclusive anyway, and the majority of trackers don't have exclusives.

>>60170832
So, by your logic then, free software should only be available to programmers that contribute to it, and not to everyone, right?

There will always be more leeching than seeding due to basic economics of supply and demand. Forcing your little laws to restrict the flow of information is exactly what governments and lawyers do. You become what you profess to hate.

I don't think you have 2 brain cells to rub together.

>>60170841
Exactly. If you take something off a private tracker and share it with the outside they will eviscerate you (even though music trackers for example take almost everything off rutracker and pass it off as their own for e-dick points). It's not about freedom, but about elitism. It's why private trackers are ruining piracy. Plus, you don't get to claim the moral high ground if you are sharing something created by something else against their will. You're actually worse than the RIAA/MPAA/the government at that point.

Keep responding with low IQ 1 liners though. It's cute.

>>60170869
Considering we're talking bandwidth and not skill then sure you do need to "contribute" but what you're contributing takes no effort or money on your part. You can't share information if no one has that information to share. The public tracker model is not sustainable because most people aren't aware that they're supposed to pass that info onto the next person. Private trackers ensure that the exchange of information continues to happen.

Actually the reverse is true in these circumstances. The more participants you have active in it the more difficult it becomes to prosecute and individual, but even moreso the community. Eventually a substantial backlash could develop or conversely a change in IP and copyright laws.

But very few releases on private trackers are exclusive. They don't stop you if you want to take what you download and upload it back to the public. Once you get use to using private trackers using public sucks. You know what you're getting and the users autisticly check for shitty encodes and the such.

private shit sucks.

It should be like the goddess that has a casual filter in order to access it

>>60171166
your english translator is broken

>>60171172
no it's perfectly fine.

>>60171143
And leeching does not mean that you have to seed either. So fuck yourself and your flawed logic.

People will share the stuff they like sharing. If you can only find some low key shit because some retard is forcing themselves to seed shit they wouldn't otherwise seed if there weren't ratio limitations on that private tracker, then what the fuck is the point in them sharing it?

Like think in real world terms. I got a SuperMan Nintendo 64 cartridge. The game fucking sucks and you fly through rings. Why the fuck would I keep holding onto this shitty N64 cart if I can just throw it out since obviously neither I nor most people want this shit anyways? Now if I liked Majora's Mask and think it's worthwhile to share, then of course that gets seeded.

Lack of seeders essentially culls irrelevant and unnecessary content amongst shared content that gets shared around.

>>60171187
Once again you're equating popularity and quality. If two people like obscure music that's one person more sharing it than normal. Then perhaps someone else finds it in a few months. Guess what? They still can do that. Your system is flawed.

>>60171172
your new is showing

> You get banned if you take something from private tracker A and upload it to private tracker B
:thinking:

>>60171249
that's the guy that takes the exclusive shit and puts it on tbp etc

>>60171201
If the person that liked obscure music liked enough to leech, but didn't like it enough to seed it back for other people, then they probably didn't like it as much you _think_ they did.

The private tracker scene isn't sustainable-- People who are force-seeding shit they don't care for will eventually drop from the scene anyways.

For the content to live on it has to be worthwhile enough that people find it WORTHWHILE to share.

Even if I had your first birthday as a video file right now, I wouldn't bother sharing it on any medium, facebook, youtube, or even in some torrent package. The content is worthless for sharing, I don't like it, and nobody else would bother liking it enough to leech it, let alone seed it back.

Popularity, relevance, and desire for shared content is what essentially keeps that content alive. It doesn't matter if it's private tracker or not; people aren't going to seed shit content. They aren't going to continue seeing Sony Vegas 9 if a newer version is out. They aren't going to continue seeding a Youtube-DL rip of Michael Jackson's albums if a direct FLAC rip is in circulation.

There is legitimately shit content that nobody wants to seed or leech and it's GOOD that it gets culled due to changing tastes as time goes on. There's little reason to keep seeding shit content ad infinitum because "da private tracker told me to"

>>60171276
You really don't know the lengths private tracker cucks go to
They pay hundreds for gbps seedboxes with terabytes of storage. And there's tons of them.

>>60171276
Not the guy you are replying to but I like pretty obscure films, but I never seed them. Like I already have it what does seeding get me?

>>60171290
>They pay hundreds for gbps seedboxes with terabytes of storage. And there's tons of them.
y-you're just a f-fucking yify p-pleb that doesn't understand...

>>60171290
That is really the most amazing thing about it. Like if you are going to put this much money, effort and risk into pirated content you might as well just buy the movie for 5$ or so

>>60171290
The top echelon of any private tracker is just a wallet contest to see who can afford the fastest seedbox with the biggest capacity and snatch every new upload and seed it to all other leechers because clients prioritize his faster connection.
It's sad.

ITT: people make shit up about private trackers.

Only a handful of internals are supposed to stay tracker exclusive. People re-upload em anyway, because fuck exclusives.

You'd be hard pressed to find someone who thinks private tracker content should not find its way onto public trackers / usenet / other p2p.

>>60171331
Then what is the whole point of it?

>>60171343
Usually a closed gated community where it's easier to torrent without getting threatening letters or your ISP service cut off
But if you're an americuck you should kill yourself anyways so that kinda defeats the point

>>60171343
Generally to narrow the focus of the content, disallow very heavy leeching and encourage uploading of new content through user class promotion and shit.

Also to try to keep out copyright cartel shitheads so the chance of getting a copyright letter is lower than on public trackers.

>>60171343
m-m-muh exclusive club status.

They're no safer than public trackers, as MPAA insiders can get in just as easily as any random that wants an invite on an IRC channel. Private trackers have gone down (permanently) more frequently than public trackers, and private trackers often fold at the first DMCA request and are poof--gone after that.

There's no point to trying to go through any shitty hoops to get an invite, or seeding content you wanted to leech but found out wasn't that great and you don't really want to seed it anymore, but stringent seed ratios prevents you from removing it for the next week or in some cases month(s), etc.

It's placebo shit, and ultimately the content that will continue to circulate is stuff that people put themselves out there to share, not because some private tracker put some arbitrary seed ratio restriction on members.

If it's great content that people really like and really want to share, the internet will find a way, and other people will be able to get it from these guys.

If it's shit content, it'll hit the 0 seeders grave never to return.

lol, do you know how many private trackers have been taken down? like >>60171376 said they fold at the first sign of difficulty or any cease and desist. Compare that to a site like TBP, which you insult, whose founders got thrown in jail for defending piracy and not yielding- something your autistic private tracker admins would NEVER do.

Private trackers act like they're the barometer of quality and sharing, and are against 'parasites' etc, but as soon as they get one little letter, *poof*! Everything gets wiped to save the admins' asses.

>>60171376
So this is what it's like listening to someone with a serious case of sour grapes.

>>60171399
People running private trackers are obviously doing it for donations. They don't give a shit about the community or the content they host and at the first sign of trouble of course they're going to run away.

>>60171399
>Compare that to a site like TBP, which you insult

I haven't though. I have used TPB in the past. I support all forms of piracy - ftp, irc, ddl, usenet, public and private trackers, etc.

I'm on a bunch of private trackers because they have content that no other source has.

>>60170772
Old torrents on public trackers are slow as fuck. Public trackers are gay.

>>60171414
>I'm on a bunch of private trackers because they have content that no other source has.
the point is that that is wrong and we should support a free and open internet. most privatefaggots look down upon public trackers.

>>60171413
Exactly. The whole 'sharing' that they espouse is merely a pretense. The admins always wipe everything at the first sign of difficulty, compared to the people who run TBP etc who will DIE for piracy.

>>60170637
To be fair private trackers have only gotten really hard to join in the past year or two. I got on all the cabal trackers bar HDB in 2013 just by asking on irc for an invite.

>>60171452
even if they weren't difficult to get into the very structure of them is frankly a problem

you're all stupid fucking faggots. the quality is infinitely better on private trackers because they actually expect something out of your sorry ass instead of a million leaches and viruses on public trackers. your whole "free and open internet" schtick is being attacked by hollywood film making corporations that want to see all file based content killed off and they want their own subscription based streaming shits used. they cant fuck with private trackers, but they sure can fuck with the pirate bay and kickass and all you public cunts. stop being fucking pussies and join private trackers, because your always welcome and it's always free as long as your not a stupid fucking faggot. YOU need to give back. this is a thread full of autistic leeches, and i hope you live with 480p movies recorded by some neckbeard in his local theater in china with google translate english subtitles baked in for the rest of your life

>>60171276
People are selfish. If you impose no requirement to consider others, they won't. They gain nothing from it. They have the file and they can enjoy it just as much whether they're seeding or not, and managing seeding takes at least some effort, so they stop the torrent to have the most gain for the least work.
Public trackers aren't some egalitarian regime where everyone is judging whether a torrent lives or dies based on merit, they're a sea of chads taking advantage of a few cucks. No torrent lasts unless it gets a semi-permanent cuck, and it dies when he leaves.
Private trackers actually have retention, so you can come by years later and still have your choice of content. Everyone being forced to share their connections means there's more bandwidth to go around, meaning each can share more content. Why would I share 1 file with 1000 people who limit their upload to 1KB/s and remove it from their client upon completion, when I can share 1000 files with whoever wants them because each person who takes a copy passes it on to another, meaning I'm freed from needing to host every single peer?

>>60171535

>Donating for pirated content
>And spending hundreds on machines with the sole purpose of providing content to others illegally
Top kek

Getting into private trackers (which are dying left and right, by the way) is a waste of time unless you really care about collecting content you might not even consume. It's also quite harder than before to even get into these trackers, with forms to fill or hunting for invites, having to demonstrate that you're essentially using your internet connection mostly for providing people with shit you don't care about for the sake of getting a higher number.

The only true reward private trackers offer these days is content that you can't find on public trackers. If you are ok with a rip with somewhat less quality, that still allows you to watch watch you want without noticing the difference most of the time, you're giving a lot in exchange for very little by finding the alternative on private trackers.

the sole reason private trackers still exist is because sites like TPB and KAT are (were) much larger targets.

>>60171565
please stop talking about things you don't understand.
where the site's hosted rarely matters.

most pirate sites hide behind Cloudflare to obscure their origin IP.
once they file a legal complaint and win the case against cloudflare they will shut you down no matter which country the server's located.

and even if you were to host the server on some remote island it'd cost thousands a month compared to an equivalent OVH box (where whatcd was hosted) that only costs $100, not to mention terrible peering and frequent outages.

>>60171752
>once they file a legal complaint and win the case against cloudflare they will shut you down no matter which country the server's located.
please elaborate
how is this possible to shutdown a server that is located in some rogue country that doesn't care about US copyright law (ex. russia)
I'm not talking about domain but the server

>>60170637
private trackers keep out the plebs who don't help out the swarm. I don't want to share a site with the type of retards who stream shit from putlocker

>>60171605
It's really not that hard. A lot of websites have opensign up at certain times of the year and new websites are always popping up.

If the MPAA/RIAA wanted to, they could hit every single private tracker in a day and force ISPs to produce logs of every single member of them

private trackers are INSANELY unsafe because they literally log all transactions. Most likely as a fail safe so when they get raided by the government they can sell out the users in exchange for less jail time/fines or outright immunity.

>>60170895
This is the real problem.

>>60171794
It really doesn't though, ratio building is a game people play, trying to get in as fast as possible to the most popular torrents so people can build their ratio on the backs of the people who come afterwards.

The number of people who actually seed rare content because they want to share it with others is pretty fucking small.

>>60171774
While a physical raid is unlikely, I highly doubt the hosting company would stand up for the client if shit seriously hits the fan (i.e., a case where they've won against cloudflare, a company that even stood up against FBI)

and Russia is no longer piracy-friendly.

This is why I hate private trackers and the torrent scene, muh exclusives, MUH you're not allowed to upload content we've stolen anywhere else because that's MUH STEALING. Fuck all of them.

I wouldn't say they're ruining piracy, but they are fucking stupid. I've been a member of most of the big-name private trackers over the years and each one has shut down. All of the stuff I found on those private trackers I could easily find on public trackers, forums, and direct download sites, so I stopped bothering with private trackers entirely.

>>60170772
>It just takes letting in a single wrong person and the network is compromised.
All of them are compromised with copyright enforcers and government agents. They gather information over a period of time and then hit the sites with a takedown order.

All private trackers do is offer the illusion of security and privacy.

Then you get there and never seed because you're TPB scum and you're used to pausing your torrents the second they finish. Good riddance.

This, this right here, is EXACTLY why private trackers are fundamentally wrong and broken. Do you want to know why? Because your entire motivation for seeding is completely undermined when you do not allow anybody to download.

>>60175305

That's you if you use free software without contributing to its development.

I don't think you understand the philosophy behind p2p. Private sharing? That's a contradiction.

Aren't you the guy defending NOT seeding? Yet you feel I'm the cancer? Go fuck yourself to your HDcam rip with Korsubs copy of Logan with 10,000 leechers and 4 seeders you fag. Your rotten attitude is the reason you never got into any private trackers. Or have any friends.

>>60175448
you don't have to patch upstream to improve FOSS. I'm a wincuck and told hexchat guys about a bug they overlooked. I don't even code and I still made the software more usable.

>>60175476
>Aren't you the guy defending NOT seeding?

I'm defending a total freedom of information. If you want to not seed, go ahead. If I wrote a program and you want to use it without contributing anything to my project, go ahead.

You didn't even create what you are hoarding. You took it from someone else, then said FUCK YOU GOT MINE!!!!! and your rationalization? a bunch of ad hominem trash.

There's a reason TPB is barely usable and the catalogue is puddle deep. Fuck off.

Hmm, like 95+% of the FOSS community? I guarantee you use FOSS software but are a leech on the programmers who created it. Where are your patches, leech? You use a torrent client? Did you pay for it or write part of the source code leech?

>>60175593
>using software with a FOSS license is the same as ensuring that torrents die and public trackers are complete cesspits driven by pure selfishness relying on a few cucks who seed

It's a shame you were never able to get into a private tracker and enjoy something that isn't pure shit like TPB, you might not be in here raving out of pure envy for my active torrents and vast library of things to download for the small price of seeding for a few hours a day. In saying that, you'd get banned immediately because you're just a parasitic Chad with low energy.

The point is that something that can be reproduced infinitely shouldn't be restricted, especially by people who obtained it without consent of the producers of that data.

>>60175724
It isn't restricted, if you had an ounce of energy or motivation to you you'd be able to get in. It isn't hard.

This is an illegal activity and there's merits to keeping it to a small pool with rules that ensure everyone has the best possible experience, not just a series of glorified download codes. But you're going to deny everything I say because you're bitter nyaa.se is gone.

What.cd was the best tracker but the economics were fucked up. They rewarded bandwidth and not redundancy.

At the same time, perfectly good torrents went unseeded and died because nobody cares to provide redundancy.

Private trackers are like rich sovereign countries. Everyone works and shares and therefor everyone thrives. They keep their borders in check, making sure no no-good leechers get in.

Then there are the greedy outsiders, who are jealous of those riches, but are too selfish to share. They refuse to see they're the reason these private trackers exist. They just want to leech all the nice stuff at high speeds. Leech of a society that they took no part in building, or care about sustaining.

this, ive just been reading this thread because I wanted to join a private tracker instead of buying music. Now that I hear it offers no bonus except force me to upload files that I dont care about for other people, sounds like im getting cucked and I don't wanna be a seed slave. All I wanted was a place where I could torrent what I wanted and I will buy it or seed it if I liked it.

Is frostwire safe?

The people posting in this thread who are just shitting on private trackers are either trolling or have literally no idea what private trackers are all about.

Public trackers are fine for people who just want popular content with no hassle and no care for the quality of the content, but it's still a complete shitshow. There's no quality control at all - people put up new movies labeled "1080p" that are 1gb ultracompressed bullshit. Music on public trackers are the worst of all, tons of stuff will be transcodes of transcodes, mutrips, mislabeled as MP3-320 when it's actually 192, missing files, or best of all they'll be completely unseeded with 20+ leechers for eternity. Only very recent music or popular older music will continue to be seeded at all on public trackers. And don't even try telling me that you can't hear the difference between a 192kbs triple transcode and a perfect FLAC.

With private trackers, the faster DL speeds are just a little extra bonus. The main draw is really the excellent quality control and access to content. This is especially true for music. What.cd (and now RED & Apollo) are music's Great Library of Alexandria. Damn near perfectly organized content, in any choice of format, and you know exactly what you're getting when you DL it. You can't find any public tracker even close to this level of quality.

Also, anyone saying that you have to pay to DL on private trackers shouldn't even be on /g/. If you can't figure out how to thrive on a private tracker using only a standard internet connection, then you are technologically retarded.

>>60183895
It's not as bad as you're probably thinking, but you do have to actually seed the things that you download. Seeding on a music private tracker is very straight forward, you just leave literally everything you download as seeding and 99.9% it won't be using any bandwidth at all, but you want to be connected and seeding for the chance that someone downloads what you're uploading. But it really doesn't take any effort or money at all.

>you'd know how much more is available there
I know what they have, and I also know that what they have is easy to find publicly if you know how and where to look. You're going to call bullshit on this and that's fine, I won't spoonfeed you anyway.

Private trackers exist to make idiots think they're special for being in a "super secret" club while that club leeches off of the rest of the pirating scene.

It's called "reading the comments". If the file is shit, someone will have called it out.

>or best of all they'll be completely unseeded with 20+ leechers for eternity

Or like most private trackers, they'll have a bazillion seeders but nobody ever downloading because the ratio economy is perma-fucked.

>If you can't figure out how to thrive on a private tracker using only a standard internet connection

For one, if you torrent on your home connection, ever, you're a moron just asking to get DMCA'd. For two, given how fucked the ratio economy generally is on any seekrit klub private tracker, you need a better-than-average-burgerland internet connection to accumulate enough ratio to make the effort worthwhile.

>>60186670
I'm not going to pretend to be able to hear the difference between a FLAC and a 320cbr everytime, but even normies can usually hear the difference between a 128 or 192kbs transcode and a V0 or 320kbs cbr.

To me, V0 is the perfect compromise: not too big, but damn near perfect quality.

>private trackers are containment sites for people like this

>>60186763
>It's called "reading the comments". If the file is shit, someone will have called it out.
I seriously hope you don't actually believe that.

Public tracker comments consist of
>A10/V10 great job YIFI
>No need to post quality review, perfect as always!
>You're getting stuff for FREE, if you want the highest quality then go buy it yourself!
On and on

>Or like most private trackers, they'll have a bazillion seeders but nobody ever downloading because the ratio economy is perma-fucked.
Are you actually trying to complain about having plenty of seeders instead of 0 seeders? Maintaining a nice buffer on private trackers is easy for anyone who isn't retarded.

>For one, if you torrent on your home connection, ever, you're a moron just asking to get DMCA'd
Wrong

>you need a better-than-average-burgerland internet connection to accumulate enough ratio to make the effort worthwhile
Wrong again

I have an average burgerland connection, can't speak for the other countries though. Admittedly though, I'm not talking about any autistic 3,000 member maximum private trackers here.

>>60186968
What use are 9001 seeders if nobody can ever download because members are encouraged to never download anything?

Ratio is a stupid fucking concept in the context of torrents. Seeding time is much more valuable.

I'm not sure where you are getting the misunderstanding that nobody can ever download.

Take RED and Apollo as an example - I'm downloading music from these on a daily basis. Ratio isn't even a big deal so long as you just leave everything seeding 24/7. Just download and forget about it. If there's a freeleech event, jump on it early and then let it do its thing. It's really that easy to maintain a positive ratio, no seedbox or VPN or other bullshit.

>>60183628
Yeah, I was Elite too. It sucked that there's no points system to compensate the people's seeding effort. These people contributed to the availability of the files, an actual metric measured by the bittorrent protocol. What.cd devs failed to account for that and were too arrogant to fix their mistake until it was too late. Nobody actually seeded torrents over the long term unless they believed they could get some ratio out of it. Sure, people'd upload some shit, but then they'd get into the trackers they wanted and the maintenance needed for Elite just didn't matter anymore. That basically means only popular and free/neutral leech albums would get seeded. Obscure shit was dead within weeks. Every single freeleech it was a seedbox orgy. The only time I made any ratio was when I logged in within 10 minutes of it starting. My home connection just can't compete otherwise. I still have some perfect FLACs saved of some rare anime OSTs nobody else cared about. I requested them because it made me nostalgic. Even the uploader didn't seed.

You know what? Availability is king. Bandwidth is secondary. PTP's points system is perfect. Less available torrents award more points. What's the point of having a million seedboxes maxing out your connection on free leech torrents while the tracker loses content every day

Like another anon put it, they're the Walmart of private trackers. Quick and easy access to content, although you might feel like a peasant for going there.

there are tons of streaming services now that cost next to nothing and provide you with the same content with actual proper quality control and service, piracy should be dead already anyway

your content, faggot.

You guys should try a good private tracker before you cry about how bad they are.

I recently downloaded the 2010 Code Geass release from Thora-gg, it has 50+ seeders does a decent speed
That's a 7 year old torrent

No one forces you to seed on public trackers, it's way more free than the communist rule of your average PT
You have to seed a specific amount of time, keep a ratio, log in every X time, download something every X days, and suck cock on IRC
And don't you dare speak badly of the site or post in places they dislike, otherwise you get /marked/ or outright banned

>>60178653
>ratio cuck
>bakabt
This doesn't add up, pretty much everything there is free leech
>>60182019
The vast majority of PT's reupload from ruTracker, Nyaa and the scene. Effectively leeching from them since they lock them out of their swarm, giving nothing back
The only thing they actually "produce" are western movies and series releases
>>60188570
Go and look how many torrents have zero seeds on sites with hard economies

The existence of private trackers is fundamentally hypocritical. It goes against everything piracy stands for.

As someone who's roughly mid-tier into the pyramid in this hobby, I pretty much agree. And I have an AB account, so it's not just sour grapes due to the recent happenings.

As a public tracker example, BakaBT was practically public before the recent closening and it had zero unseeded torrents and good organization.

I've been the single seeder on a public torrent for about half a year. Practically 99% hit and run. Why even bother continue seeding when no one else cares to keep it alive?

>>60189879
>stands for

>>60189879
>It goes against everything piracy stands for
99% of people don't care about sharing and caring and all that bs, they just want free stuff

>>60186509
>and Oink was around for many years before that

Bullshit, you're talking out of your ass. Oink was only around for 3 years and it was nowhere near as comprehensive as what exists now anyway. Plus back in those days people didn't really use private trackers anyway, it was Usenet, or other p2p applications like Kazaa or Limewire.

Private trackers have only matured to being the dominant go-to source for everything structured since WCD, BTN and PTP have come into existence and only one of those has died, there is nothing that existed prior you can compare them to at all. If you're not in those you can't claim to have been in "most of the big-name private trackers" because they ARE the big name trackers.

Fine if you think you can find what you want elsewhere but stop lying about random shit because it makes everything you're saying stink of sour grapes.

>>60170637
Not for everyone, you retarded faggot. Piracy for people in private trackers is still fine. Your stupid public shit may die but who gives a fuck besides people who can't get invites.

R A T I O C U C K S

I'd much rather download at 20 KB/s from public torrents with thousands of leechers and only a dozen seeders than participate in the cock sucking contest that is private trackers.

>>60190720
You're approaching this all wrong. Look at it from a sort of Machiavellian perspective. You can take advantage of a superior system or you can wallow in your own shit on principle. You sound like a teenager.

>>60180248
This. If it's not on either rutracker or slsk it was almost certainly not on what.cd

t. Kicked from what.cd due to inactivity because there was literally nothing on there that I couldn't easily get somewhere else

And I'm a turbohipster with almost 500 Gbs of music.

>>60190770
>superior system

if there's a 40/1 global seed/leech ratio, why don't they either temporarily set EVERYTHING to freeleech, or allow leechers to download 5x more than they upload temporarily? on private trackers with a strict 1:1 ratio requirement, if no one can seed then no one can download. everybody loses except the few dozen faggots that were there from the beginning.

there is nothing superior about that system. it is completely impractical, unusable shit.

>>60190944
You are talking about one specific tracker (which one?) which I'm not familiar with. There are a shitload of trackers. Chances are you can find your game on gazellegames.net or iptorrents, both of which are basically public tracker tier in terms of ratio difficulty.

>>60170637
What is your opinion on rarbg(dot)to?

>>60190975
the tracker was Pleasuredome and that was a few years ago. I got the romset I wanted after waiting a couple months for it to be uploaded to a DDL host. maybe all private trackers aren't this bad but at least this one didn't require taking an interview on IRC (basically sucking dick for an invite) or verifying that you have a good ratio on another private tracker.

>>60191110
How is taking an interview the equivalent of sucking dick?

>>60191357
normalfags wouldn't understand because you have been conditioned to get used to doing things like that in real life, especially to get jobs.

>>60191391
well I can't help you if you think any requirement automatically = sucking cock, but things like iptorrents and gazellegames as i mentioned are really easy to get into and easy to maintain if you have a pulse and aren't a nigger
