    Private trackers

    Things you should know about private trackers While public trackers can be nice in the sense that you can simply download whatever and not have to worry about ratio or seeding rules that also means that torrents are often going to be poorly seeded and a lot of content (if seeded at all) and a...

    Private trackers

    Why giving seeding bonuses doesn't result in better seeded torrents You might (hopefully not) think that people will seed more if there is some program to specifically reward it but we don't see that for RED vs OPS https://torrents.neocities.org/ The more bonuses people get from seeding the...

    RED vs music streaming Looking at tidal we see that they have over 110 million songs which is actually pretty good even when you compare to RED. Red currently offers 1.6 million releases and 310K unconfirmed releases. Advantages with RED are: 0. Good quality control (they will tell you if a...

    Building up a new tracker to become top-tier seems almost impossible Besides the technical challenges in getting everything to work properly there is also the network effect favoring already established trackers. Why should people bother to join if you don't have content worth joining for...

    Private trackers

    Redditor claimed: "i got cabal banned from being invited by someone shady" This is why you shouldn't accept user invites, it can really screw you over later down the line. Great_Gur_8412 wrote: How does cross banning work? I got into PTP, RED and the like years ago, but my inviter ended up...

    Private trackers

    Redditor got into trouble after accepting user invite Most likely a person higher up in a tree invited a really bad user and now they are in big trouble. Some trackers would have just banned them right away without even bothering to check on them to see if they are innocent. R_ealE wrote: What...

    Economy and requests While you can have requests where you are merely asking for stuff without anything in return requests are far more effective when people actually get something of value for filling those requests. People might for example have to buy a copy with their own money, it's only...

    Did ave kris tyson even do anything wrong?

    The whole thing against her basically started because she (he at the time) had a discord server where he didn't bother to age-gate the nsfw channel. Of course age-gating nsfw channels does not actually prevent people under 18 for seeing nsfw material. It's in reality very easy to access nsfw...

    Hilarious 4chan post about private tracker users This was too funny not to get reposted here. One day in the life of a private tracker cuck... He wakes up and goes directly to his computer, an AB tab is always open that way he gets ready for a trump competition with julzer, to see who can...

    free speech though experiment

    Yes and also spam and scams. Free speech only works within gated communities where there are no bad actors, in the real world it falls apart quickly.

    free speech though experiment

    We do have a pretty good idea of what would happen since the US has free speech protection in the constitution itself and it's largely upheld. We end up with corporations like reddit and facebook doing restrictions instead. People naturally want to use spaces where they don't have to see...

    Download more for faster promotions The more you download the more upload you can get from seeding. That's why it can be hard to keep your ratio down if you actually have good internet allowing you to get a lot of upload just from what you have downloaded. Don't obsess over your ratio if it's...

    How private trackers can provide value without offering any unique or hard to find content First off content being available on some other tracker really doesn't matter unless you are actually able to gain access to said tracker in a reasonable manner. One reason why people sometimes use...

    Private trackers

    What's even the point with "Hit and Run" rules? It's fairly common for trackers to have minimum seeding rules but how does that even help in the first place? What you want isn't for people to seed for 7 days or even 30 days, what you want is to have people seed for years so people can actually...

    About the community aspect of some private trackers It's very common that private trackers have things like forums and IRC channels where people of their community can talk to each other. That sounds all fine and good but there are problems. First off there are many other places where you can...

    Filelist.io is pretty bad At first i wasn't planning to join that site since it didn't really seem to offer much of what i was looking for. Recently however i saw that they were basically giving out invites via their IRC so i decided to try to join anyway hoping they would be useful as a more...
