A private tracker is a torrent website that provides similar functionality to a public tracker but is invite-only. Each member share common goals: collecting, preserving and discussing media.

How the fuck can you be a recruiter for BTN and have it "slip your mind" to look at applications for 2 months?

>>105622917
>>2 months
AB recruiter has been gone for well over 6 months now. 2 months is nothing.

HDB recruiter gone for a year. Then came back a month ago and MIA since then. 2 months is nothing. 6 months is nothing.

>>105622898

>>105622997
>HDB recruiter gone for a year
MM is still recruiting on TIK. Just get a TIK invite and ask him. He replies promptly, too

Is there any reason to increase my user class beyond what's needed? For example I'm like 75% of the way to TM on RED and I kind of want to make it there (or even higher) despite being in every tracker I want to, but I'm scared that the time spent on doing so will be wasted if RED ever shuts down.

>>105622917
Max wait time should be one month. There's no point in an official path if you're gonna get "two more weeks" treatment.

Why the fuck don't they have a no-auth application page ?

>We're taking applicants with this class and this age from these other private trackers. Insert a link here. You will receive an invite link through PM on that private tracker after one of our literally anyone upper than FLS looks at your profile. In case you misuse this you external IP is banned.

Done.
>Noo you have to send CAREFULLY FORMATTED PM to Glombikus Last Seen: Never and he may or not may invite you and also you can't know why or why not also it's a privilege also he's busy also serious business.

Fuck me bring back invite trading and invite forums.

>>105623220
Yeah I've long since wondered why all these cabal trackers don't develop an API that lets them query and bring up information on any user. If they had something like that they could automate invitations.

>>105623155
Didn't MM try to overthrow TiK and Blu?

>>105623239
You forget how incompetent the staff is on some of these trackers. That's too much. RED needed like 4 years just to filter nazi shit out of top 10. Something like that is too complicated.

But a no-auth invite page that requires a basic check by some third party is more than doable.

>>105623300
what happened to 1 and 2 ?

someone on /r/trackers couldn't make it on MAM without a seedbox

>>105623293
Is fakebaby the recruiter or just an account that Corgi uses? Because corgi is the one that said he is up to date on GGN apps but the account you message is fakebaby.
Corgi actually does download and seed some things.

>>105623365
fakebaby is katara

how do i get into tik?

>>105623409
heard if you just send vinnie some money he will invite you

My GF left me and said my seed size was small

>>105623395
Proof?

>>105623155
whats up with all of you saying to just ask staff X for an invite. someone else also said to just ask that one guy on GGn for an AB invite. do you want neons to get banned?

>>105623494
I wasn't following that conversation too closely but I think they're saying that you can message certain AB staff members on other sites and they will invite you.

We are going to ban indians and jews next week, i will Make Aither Great Again.

>>105623530
Thank you based Stelks.

>>105623529
how do i know who is AB staff when i‘m not on AB yet?

>>105623547
Some anon in /ptg/ will tell you

If Aither bans Jews I will 100% join and donate monthly

I understand now why this general is so dead.

I also hate the Jews

>>105623564
We will ban fat women too so they won't be able to have sex with you and dump you

>>105623547
Just message linkins

Isn't Blu and some cabal ran by Jews?

banning fat women is based

>>105623589
They probably all are

>>105623589
Yes, all of the cabal are run by Jews that is why we are cutting ties with all of them, Aither was not promised to them 3000 years ago.

why do jews even pirate stuff when they already have all the money

>>105623589
HDB is according to other anons

>>105623494
>>105623494
It's an official invite thread on TIK, dummy.

>>105623484
BTN threads on PTP and RED.

>>105623614
How do you think they gain all that money? By spending?

>>105621667
just have to share a few rpg maker games to reach those numbers

I guess it's time to tweak my filters again. No more unfunny aith** spam

>>105623201
Unlimited invites and exclusive forum. If your method of reaching TM is spamming deezerslop then don't bother.

>>105623589
blu is a dead end, they wish they were cabal

>>105624149
>If your method of reaching TM is spamming deezerslop
It is, but I also don't care about invites and I'm pretty sure there's nothing of note in the exclusive forum unless they have special invites like GGN.

Should I collect HDB just because it's considered prestigious? I'm more than happy with PTP/BTN/BHD/ATH already.

>>105624226
You can read "so i finally made it to TM" posts, even post your own!

>>105624284
HDB has nothing valuable to offer besides a few 4k encodes that look like all the other encodes from every other top tier encoding group

>>105624499
Also, stop collecting trackers and taking up a user slot if you don‘t need it you fucking niggers

What's up with tracker mods always being assholes?

I lost my GGn account a few months ago. Joined in 2016 or so, 8yr+ account.

>"you know what you did!!!!! How much did you pay for the inv?!?!"
Nothing, a friend invited me back in the day.
>"You are lying. Show me screenshots of this inv transaction"
Dude this happened 8 years ago. I don't have any logs. We're still friends though and I can talk to him right now, he will confirm everything. He can hop on IRC and you can talk to him as well if you want.
>"Not needed, this story seems too fishy. Permaban."
Wtf is fishy about this?
>"Just banned your friend too btw"
Why?
>"You're fishy so he must be fishy as well" *logs out of irc*

They didn't let me appeal and my friend was just as dumbfounded as I was.

Nowadays I just use Torrent Leech, I don't wanna spend years maintaining an account with perfect standing, paying for seedboxes etc only for some gestapo power hungry mod ban me out of nowhere.

>>105624709
should've stayed /pure/

>>105624744
True. If a tracker is officially recruiting their is literally no reason to accept a user invite. What is 3 months waiting on RED to get on GGn vs immediately access to GGn but permabannes after 3 months? His friend was most likely just a stupid nigger who sold and/or traded invites.

>>105624780
The problem is how this makes the invite system 100% useless.

Nobody uses their invites out of fear of inviting someone dumb, and nobody accepts invites out of fear they will be banned later on, so why bother with it?

>>105624821
>>Nobody uses their invites out of fear of inviting someone dumb, and nobody accepts invites out of fear they will be banned later on, so why bother with it?

This is exactly what they want to achieve. They don‘t want you to give out invites to some random ass nigga and they don‘t want you to accept invites from random ass niggaz either. Only invite someone you truly trust and that isn‘t a goddamn nigga

>>105624709
>>105624835
The system just sucks as is. They should simply disable invite privileges for anyone in a suspicious tree instead of taking a cluster bomb approach and nuking everyone.

>>105624868
So someone who bought his way in shouldn‘t lose access to an account he had no right of owning in the first place? Taking away invite privileges when I bought my way in kind of implies that I don‘t have anyone to invite anyway. I wouldn‘t have bought an invite from a random person if I had.

>>105624529
Is it coollecting if I cross-seed? I only do this on white trackers like HDB though

>>105624910
I wish I could pay 30 bucks for AB instead of waiting like 2 months for the recruiter.

I just need u2 to be set for life...

>>105624943
Just get the sources from moe

>>105624910
If the alternative is banning innocent people for life then yes, invite traders should stay but not be allowed to send any more invitations. There's just too much risk of a false positive.

>>105624957
>just paypig bro
kek

>>105624868
This is probably what happened. My friend swear that he didn't buy an inv but got one from someone long ago, like 10+ years since his acc was older than mine.

He used to be quite poor back in the day so he wouldn't waste cash with buying an invite, so I kinda believe him. Somehow, somewhere, the invite tree was rotten and they decided to ban everyone.

The problem is the age of the accounts. If someone is in good standing for nearly a decade or more, why ban? You're just removing good people for the sake of justice against someone who might not even use their account anymore.

Disabling invites for the entire tree seems fair, at least you know that what happened there won't spread any further.

>>105624970
>he doesn't know

>>105624966
Staff really think everyone they ban is an invite seller/trader, and they believe it

>>105625054
Do you think being active in the community or a big uploader would let them give you the benefit of doubt?
I'm /pure/ except for my first tracker which I used for everything else and it would really suck if the guy who invited me from IRC (who I'm no longer in contact with) a decade ago ended up breaking the rules and it came back to bite me.

If I were PT staff, I would just ban old accounts who got in way too easily and made almost no contribution (backed by some good reason though) to make room for new recruits who at least put some effort in their PT journey.

>>105625162
you can check if he's still active or not, if he got disabled a few years ago you're as good as /pure/

>>105625182
Nah I'm not in trouble, but my friend did accidentally re invite someone with a disabled account and they've since disabled his invite privileges. Just hope that's the end of it.

did bakabt go down again o algo

>>105625162
No, the higher the rank of the user they ban the more the staff can jack off

>>105625175
I got into PTP with 5 transcodes on WCD and I have never uploaded to any tracker since. You can suck my dick

>>105625200
How are you supposed to know if theyve been disbled before

>>105625535
Idk man, nothing about the invite system makes any sense. It should be scrapped entirely if they're not going to make it a bit more lenient.

>>105625535
If he doesn't tell you, it means he's not a person one could trust, giving him an invite is something you must not do.
If he does tell you, it means he's not a person you could trust because he was disabled before, so giving him an invite is something you must not do.

Lemme guess, you think you need more than general trackers

>>105625930
BTN is ratioless which is nice

>>105625175
Fuck off. Literally got into everything from WCD a long time ago. Literally uploaded some noise albums from bandcamp.

>>105624744
NTA, but how can I get a /pure/ inv into GGn?
Get into RED then wait?

Redditor wants to get recruited into HDB for a seedbox promo

BTN really does not seem that impressive to me, I just checked and there is a fuck ton of content on snahp that isn't on BTN.
How many snatches can I expect per upload? I'd like to rank up to at least power user.

>>105625930
I don't just need more. I need everything. I cross seed from general trackers to cabal trackers and rack up points/buffer.

>>105626953
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dm_5qWWDV8

>>105624835
I got invited in. I invited people in. The answer to this problem is very simple. Do not associate with retards. I wouldn't give out invites to randoms because it would be a waste. I give them to my good friends. I have little to fear inviting my friend who has a seedbox and is already in PTP into BTN and HDB.

>>105626763
It's the best of it's kind for TV and it's ratioless. For those two reasons I consider it indispensable. There's a lot of stuff I want that's on TVV but isn't on BTN. BTN staff have some issues and the rules can be pretty dumb sometimes. Anons said it's the worst cabal tracker and they're right. But there's nothing better for TV.

>>105624284
I have another year to wait for PTP should I get BHD in the meantime to fill the gap?

>>105627672
yes

hey??? OP image is not deleted! i guess that dude who is moderating /ptg/ has figured it all out and is now finally considering that those images are simply cartoon characters (not real images of human beings). well finally, i can see some actual progress here. congrats!

>>105627672
i can get invitation to PTP from my friend who i'm interacting on some other tracker where i am an active uploader and active user on their official IRC #channel since day 1.

i don't know if i should take because i'm not sure if PTP can offer me some artistic and obscure low budget european movies.

>>105622917
you think it is very easy to recruit users from other trackers? think again

>>105627856
If you get an invite from your "friend", you're left to the mercy of his actions.
Sometimes even the best of friends will go rouge. Sometimes trannie staffers will just go on a powertrip.
And with Cabals autistic "one account per lifetime rule", you might end up regretting not going the /pure/ route.

>>105623571
than speak up, i want to read what you have to say.

>>105627903
yeah i agree with your statement but that online friend has showed me his profile on PTP and all i can say is that he is pretty much famous there and is one of the users who has joined at 2009.

i don't know if i should take that invitation because i don't know if PTP posses my preferred content in their library. i'll ask him of course, and all of the movies that i'm preferring are very, very hard to find. am regularly looking at the request page from other obscure trackers and i'll probably ask to show me proof from 3 or 4 movies only to be sure if i'm going to ask for invite or i'll stay out from that type of /impure/ route.

>>105624868
This is what they do. PTP just disables suspect people from being able to send invites.

>>105627030
sure thing, yet, does TVV have tv-series in UHD quality?

>>105628054
They currently don't allow series made after 2020 to be uploaded. Maybe they have some but if that's what you are after BTN is what you want.

KG, CG, TiK or SC
what would you choose from those trackers if you can and if you are not only another user who is a collector of trackers?

>>105628149
CG or KG depends what you watch

>>105628164
documentary movies and some weird gory art from producers like marian dora (yeah i know i know, that producer is more into animal cruelty and human torture, but i am only watching those types of movies maybe 15 times a year)

>>105628180
CG has more of the grimy shit, KG more documentaries probably but PTP is better

>>105626709
i don't know what is, as you say "the best", because there is no such a thing as the best, also, i'm not into pornography but i think you can get that specific type of porn on exoticaz. maybe some other anon who is into porn can confirm my statement.

>>105628288
>>105626709
There is a best for JAV and it's M-Team.

these are some public tracker torrents I made, look at them ratios compared to seeder numbers, this is why we can't have nice things

>>105626709

public shitters are actually gatekeeping content more than private trackers do, by not seeding, and letting them die so nobody else can download it after them.

>>105626616

I had a person i berely knew offer me invite to PTP because they didn't want to have an invite just sitting there being wasted or whatever.

I tried to explain to them that their reasoning was bad and that people can simply join from RED the official way.

Later i heard from what i assume was the same person about how they got treebanned and had to go through a lengthy process to prove their innocence because they invited someone that didn't live in the same area.

There is always low tier sites like BHD and BTN to join if you cannot wait 2 years for PTP/HDB.

>>105629958
I like the transparent 1080p encodes, but I think 720p, 576p, and 480p have their places. We gotta have those SD options for stuff that never got an HD release at minimum

>>105629958
HDR is bloat and not even supported by most decices

LOVE HUNO

>>105630267
Arre bhaiya, HUNO tracker is too much underrated only, yaar! Salute to this tracker’s simplicity – full fairness for all types of users, even if your upload speed is slower than my uncle’s Tata Nano! 5Mbps ke saath bhi, you can download 20+ torrents daily, no ratio tension-shension! Perfect for building your personal movies/TV library, 100% guaranteed! Their web-dl and HEVC encodes? Size mein chhota, quality mein mota!

And their internals? HONE WEB releases are top-class, bhai! New movies and episodes drop faster than Mumbai monsoon rains! Other new trackers getting hype? Good for them, but HUNO speaks quality-quality everywhere – torrents, community, retention… total package only! If you don’t have this tracker, life mein kya rakha hai? Secondary ho ya main, must-have hai!

i love it when the gentle wind is kissing by butthole sirs

>>105630002
Any HD tracker worth their salt would allow SD releases, if HD isn't available anyways.
It's almost crazy that we have to even ask if this is the case, when reviewing new HD trackers.
So what you're gonna do, if the movie/series was never available outside of a DVD release? You want indian neons to make their own upscales, just to fill your site with content?

Fuck any tracker that straight out disallows SD.

>>105630538
>So what you're gonna do, if the movie/series was never available outside of a DVD release?
i download it from PTP/BTN

>>105630538
I very rarely download anything that's SD. HDB is the tracker I use the most.

>>105630538
not in HD = not worth watching
shrimple as

>>105630538
>>Fuck any tracker that straight out disallows SD.

HDBots is the only tracker that doesn‘t allow SD content. BLU, BHD, ATH all allow SD if that‘s the highest available resolution.
The problem is that there are too many foreign movies that only release in SD. Even current year asian cinema (no, not indian bollywood trash) sometimes only gets released on DVD. HD only is for capeshitters. Imagine GGn not allowing games that aren‘t at least 720p. it‘s so fucking dumb. There is tons of peak cinema only in SD out there but HDBots don‘t care about movies, they care about pixels

Where are my private tummies I thought this was private tummies general

>>105630710
It's simple. That's not what HDB is for. HDB is for high quality encodes. You can do the best possible encode of your sloppy mpeg 2 DVD and it's just lipstick on a pig. There are places for that sort of thing. Neons like you need to stay in these places and not use specialized trackers. Neons like you are too retarded to see the value of a gathering of encoders and people who care about quality. Neons like you screech about the few edge cases that get upped to avistaz then make their way to PTP from there, as if anyone on HDB gives one single fuck until the inevitable WEB-DL gets issued because they don't want to watch that blocky garbage on their high end setups.

Is there another tracker which is both ratioless and no hit & run like BTN?

>>105631054
BTN has H&R rules though

>>105631054
milkie

>>105630710
HDB is not trying to be the next PTP/BTN and HDB members already have access to those two. The other curry trackers you mention are breaking their HD niche premise, which is stupid, also their members are curry and don't have access to PTP/BTN.

We are sorry for the problems this could be producing, but we have not an easy problem to solve here and we need time to figure out the next steps.

question for dedicated and experienced uploaders . . .
what is your favorite software fro encoding? i asked that similar question on several PT forums and i haven't got one single response that the favorite software is ffmpeg (yea i know why, no one really want to bother with CLI). it seems to me that ffmpeg nerds are actual minority in the world of private trackers so i want to ask that question here.

what's your favorite software where your are doing your personal encodes?

>>105632774
reddit copy paste but there are multiple channels full of people who will talk all day about encoding, full guides for encoding, encoding metadata is in most things you will download so you can just look at it
but this doesn't happen on curry trackers

so, about 3 months ago I decided I'll start joining private trackers I joined first MAM through the interview and then RED (though it took about 2 weeks of nonstop being in the IRC channel to get to through the queue). I am buying WEB releases to upload and I plan to soon purchase physical media once I get a drive. I know how to convert, remux, encode etc (though my computer isn't that powerful). I am paying for a seedbox with 16TiB storage. I have a plan for the trackers I want to join with the fastest and least hopping possible. so what is the point of writing this is everything is going good? the thing is the seedbox server I have is not too good I am looking for a better seedbox, I need a lot of storage and my budget is about 80$/mo if anyone knows where I can get a DEDICATED, UNMANAGED server for not too expensive thank you

now where are those anons who were eagerly promoting ANT? what happened to ANT anons and why is almost everyone in /ptg/ promoting ATH?

>>105633024
Who is promoting ATH outside of r/trackers? ATH is, was and will always be a troonit3d tracker

>>105633043
i don't know who exactly and i'm not in this general regular as i was 5 years ago, but every time when i'm lurking here, i always see some anon who is mentioning ATH for some irresponsible and unusual reasons. that's why i'm asking this nonsensical question.

>>105633065
ATH is decent enough for mainstream content. For everything else it‘s pretty bad.

>>105633024
>everyone
Our regular spammer change trackers every few months or so

Can someone on KG please post a link to ENG subs for this ?

The release is The.Stranger.and.the.Fog.1976.1080p.WEB-DL.AAC2.0.H.264-Gloft.mkv

>>105633024
>>105633043
ATH was obviously the only newish tracker that had any organic momentum behind it.
The people recommending ANT are probably shills/staff trying to save their irrelevant tracker.

Don't get it twisted, the only notable non cabal trackers for TV/Film right now are ATH and BHD. Nothing else is important.

>>105633155
hmm i see, so what's the catch about ATH? is it about internal release groups and quality from internal release groups, or is it about official forum for invitations?

be honest anon.

>>105633198
I don't know dude, everyone says kitsune is good but I don't understand what that means since they're only a WEBDL group and they aren't even particularly fast or thorough.

>>105633198
>so what's the catch about ATH?
nothing. it's a good first tracker for noobs. what catch could there be?

>>105633198
ATH blew up because BHD started recruiting there, but they've since stopped.

>>105633198
You are replying to ATH staff

>>105632833
*licks u*

>>105633257
that's a man

>>105633234
No, ATH blew because BHD become more difficult to join for neons and BLU became even shittier, so there's that. It's a tracker for curries or neons who will abandon the tracker once they get into the cabal

>>105633282
>a tracker for curries or neons who will abandon the tracker once they get into the cabal
This is true for every tracker though, except for the ones with a specific niche.

so what if i'm replying to ATH staff and how could you know and be 100% sure that i'm not a staff from some other tracker? you can't find out and you are not in actual position to know this.

>>105633257
No such onlyfans

I wish ATH was as good as everyone on Reddit said. It‘s the highest tier movie tracker I‘m on right now and it doesn‘t have what I want in 7 out of 10 times and when they do the torrent is either dead or low seeded. That site has a serious retention problem but what do you expect when you have FL events every single month?

ANT hasn't been relevant since PTP came back online

>>105633336
If only these sites would make a request section to solve this problem

>>105633336
Can't say I have run into issues with retention on ATH, but I've also moved on to BHD at this point.

>>105633336
You realize how much all the mid trackers suck ass once you are in the top and use the same 2 places to get everything.

>>105633336
>I wish ATH was as good as everyone on Reddit said.
it's a good 1st tracker for noobs. nobody said it was PTP.

>>105633379
Weird part is a lot of the content the top gets are mid-tier groups or even just scene stuff.

>>105633336
>it doesn‘t have what I want in 7 out of 10 times
make a request dummy

you can't compare ATH to BHD, they have been there longer and had time to get better. We only started fixing stuff 2 years ago and we are still trying to clean up our torrentdb. Yes Kitsune might be slower than FLUX or NTb, not a fair comparison when it's mostly just 1 or 2 doing all those uploads. We were very far behind BLU but we caught up and with time we can become better and improve.

>>105633432
How do you and the other staff members feel about BHD pulling recruitment?

>>105633443
we don't really mind, we are still friends with them. they made their decision and it is not the end of the world after all nor did it hurt either of us

he's a faggot but he uploads a lot of movies

I was only using BLU before tall the random stuff happened a few months ago. As a donor I wasn't happy with the drama even though the content was good. I moved to ATH and while I assume it is not even close to cabal I have been much happier with it. It has good up time and generally whatever I want to watch. I don't really get the hate on many of these trackers unless the staff is actually ruining the site like what was happening on BLU

>>105633542
>uploading is bad

i have only one tracker with UNIT3D and i have to say something, UNIT3D UI is shit in so many unbelievable ways. not sure how the fuck are users of such shitty UI enjoy in that awful shit.

>>105633723
most users go with automation tool and never engage with the tracker. can't blame them when you are using such shit

>>105633723
which one?

>>105633736
here is a hint
its not my fault that most users ended on UNIT3D UI, that tracker was hacked by some scriptkiddie and the owner decision was to change everything and to prolong a tracker life on other UI.

imagine being so butthurt about being only like the 5th best movie tracker that you go on /ptg/ to defend yourself. cabal-level pissiness without even being cabal. the ultimate exercise in pathetic

>>105625028
tracker staff are honestly normally pretty reasonable people but specifically when it comes to treebans and paid invites they're paranoid freaks. people have gotten cabal bans for buying invites to trackers that don't exist anymore back when the trackers they're getting banned from didn't exist yet

>>105626659
the true peak cabal shittery is that when it comes to invites RED is always the answer but when it comes to actually using the damn tracker for downloading music it's gotta be OPS

>>105635200
ok nelso

>>105635200
>it's gotta be OPS
It's not.

>>105635296
>It's not
maybe if you like webslop and waiting months for the next time you can download something and spending most of your time grinding upload instead of listening to music which is supposed to be the point of this whole exercise

>>105635343
I have terabytes of buffer, never seedboxed, never deezerslopped. My only web uploads are bandcamp purchases.
>spending most of your time grinding upload
This just means the tracker will have more uploads. Why wouldn't you want that?
>listening to music
I do.

>>105635065
I can‘t tell the difference between 720p and 1080p on my 14“ laptop

Who needs RED/OPS when you have picrel

>>105635617
if you're going to the trouble to download files you might as well grab something better than you can get on spotify even if it's barely perceptible. it makes autists like me feel good about themselves.

>>105635200
RED is actually perfectly usable as a source of music if you are there for the invite forum...
Once you get 500gb upload you'll likely never go on ratiowatch.

>>105635503
well sorry for giving a shit about neons i guess. mb. you enjoy grinding upload and that's good for you. rest of us will stay where we're allowed to download without ripping 100 cds first :)

>>105635720
>we're allowed to download without ripping 100 cds first
And your tracker just missed out on 100 cd rips. This is self-centered thinking.
When will neons understand that it doesn't matter how easy it is to download, if uploading is not rewarded, people won't upload, and you will have nothing to download either.

>>105635812
and yet me saying "hard economy bad" has gotten you so tilted you busted out the therapy speak. i have a large buffer on both trackers i'm just stating the truth

>>105635812
There's a middle ground, you dipshit. Ratio economy that isn't oppressive so that people will PARTICIPATE in the swarm and acquire things to be seedeers for but there is still a purpose in uploading (request economy is the most obvious).

>>105635812
>missed out on 100 cd rips
>implying the people that would need to rip a ton to be able to download what they want have enough to rip that hasn't already been done and is thus worthless
D U R R

>>105635812
Uploading has more rewards than just being guaranteed the filesize as upload credit before thirty seedboxes snatch away all downloader traffic.
>>105635880
>there is still a purpose in uploading (request economy is the most obvious)
We're literally in a thread mostly dedicated to moving up the ladder of trackers which often requires gaining a high user rank which often requires ***uploading.***

>Reason for repack. The Arrow GBR BD (2014), which was no longer available anywhere, was re-ripped by gekiryu@aither (thanks!).
stay winning Aither-chads.

>>105635812
Those 100 cd rips were only uploaded so someone has enough buffer to download the new Taylor Swift album, which you could have easily gotten on OPS.
Seriously, I'm ETM on red and the vast majority of my uploads have less than ten total snatches. I think my most popular upload has maybe 30. Nobody is listening to any of this shit but it's necessary for the invite forum and for buffer.

>>105635970
> We're literally in a thread mostly dedicated to moving up the ladder of trackers
and there's the issue. Your hobby isn't music. Your hobby is /pyramid/ and begging Grohl-senpai to let you in to the places you actually care about. Such people love RED because it gives them an outlet to feel special in their super secret clubs.

>>105636013
I see you found something in the post that you could latch onto and reply while willfully missing the point. Not surprising. You should kill yourself.

>>105636028
then my beloved trackers will miss out on 100s of cd rips??!?? how could you ever suggest such a thing???

>>105636121
thanks xavier, next you're gonna say "red is better for uploaders because autosnatchers exist" and totally miss why everyone's laughing at you

What films are (not) allowed on SC and KG? e.g. CZ allows English films only if they are 50+ years old, I'm curious what's the "cut-off" year on SC/KG and do they allow popular old things like The Godfather or Kubrick on their trackers?

>>105636175
There's no cutoff year. They simply don't allow popular things like what you mentioned. On SC things are more relaxed, so Kubrick's films are on there. I think it varies on a case-by-case basis but if it's something like The Godfather or Inception then don't expect it to be allowed.

>>105636147
Private trackers are not for getting free media, you have public trackers for that.
Private trackers are about collecting and preserving at quality, and paying for sources is not out of the question. Everything you download, someone paid for it. Why wouldn't you pay for something too and upload it? It's only fair.

>>105636168
Kind of? Most uploads wouldn't be snatched for a long time. Autosnatchers give uploaders instant gratification.

>>105636387
>Private trackers are not for getting free media
Oh look, another fag missing the point on purpose. Go back to the line that started the conversation.

Too much bitching. Too much crying. If you want in you play the game. It's only going to get worse the longer you wait. Public trackers are no alternative for the best private trackers. The worst private trackers are still better than public trackers.

>waaaah why do they keep pulling me back to the actual argument every time I try to posture with some irrelevant shit

>>105635692
tfw all the climbers who won't use the tracker once reaching user class desired have more buffer than the ones who are there to get music

meanwhile, a couple hours ago:

>>105635296
> when it comes to invites RED is always the answer but when it comes to actually using the damn tracker for downloading music it's gotta be OPS
> it's not

pick one xavier. is RED for downloading free music or is it not for that. because we know that OPS is a music piracy site first and an audiophile circlejerk second - and we prefer it that way

>>105636147
Made me chuckle

>>105636505
Fuck an argument. It's unnecessary. All that's needed is to lay out the facts. Public trackers have shit speeds, shit retention especially on higher quality files, and are missing a whole lot if you're not a capeshitter. They are irrelevant to nearly any discussion in this thread, it's private tracker general not public tracker general. I don't care at all to hear anyone moan about how hard it is to get into private trackers. Either you want it bad enough or you don't. If you don't you don't belong in this thread.

>>105636560
I use RED almost exclusively for downloading music. I got a couple invites from there but that's not what I joined for. I was already on cabal trackers when what went down and passtheheadphones opened. You're just a neon.

>>105636560
Trackers are ways to get content. It just happens, that the content is free.
But that doesn't mean that it is forbidden to pay for stuff to upload. In fact, it is expected to a certain degree.
RED is better than OPS, because it has more incentives for uploaders than OPS. Which means more content to download and listen, thus using the tracker.
I don't see what issue you are having here.

Neons are always so loud dumb and confident. They think if they posture like this people will be impressed.

>>105636622
Damn you are dumb as a rock. They are literally talking about OPS not public trackers. OPS is the better option if you just want to build your music collection

> all that's needed is to lay out the facts
> RED has more incentives for uploaders than OPS

>>105636653
OPS has an inferior library so I didn't even bother joining it. Nobody calls it curry anymore but that's what it is and always has been.

>>105636682
Pic related is RED. I used to make fun of OPS all the time. It was APOOLOO before then came the era of OOPS. The only reason I stopped is because the obnoxious shills finally shut the fuck up. Nobody tries to do a gay console war between trackers anymore, except you trying to bring it back I guess.

>>105636701
only reason I use OPS more than RED is because they gave me like 600 tokens a bit back and I'm not even near halfway through, I could pump my RED ratio with a month of seedboxing if I really wanted to but there isnt much reason to

>>105626709
Oppaitime

Look I'll make it clear for all of you, the economy on RED is not bad if you try to make it to TM.
However, RED purists have some warped sense of reality where they think a brutal economy like this is the ONLY way to encourage retention and contributions, but we can see from other trackers like GGN, BTN, PTP, etc. that you can have a great tracker without making it painful.

>>105636884
All you need to do is upload. The "hard" economy becomes easy once you get good at finding things to upload. Upload more than you plan to download. Use tokens when you get handouts. I never use up all my tokens and I am able to get whatever I want from RED.

>>105636902
Meanwhile you can use practically every other tracker out there without ever having to upload, and many of them are considered the best in the world in their area.

>>105636913
I don't care.

>>105636935
Yeah, because if you acknowledge this fact then your entire argument falls apart.

>>105636951
I am serious. I don't care. If you're too much of a shitter to spam some releases from Qobuz you deserve to have your tracker journey halted. At the same time if you can handle sourcing uploads from elsewhere that also means you can source a lot of the music that's on RED without using RED. A smart person would save their buffer for downloading rare stuff instead of using it for common things like a complete moron. I end up dumping all my buffer into requests.

>>105637003
>If you're too much of a shitter to spam some releases from Qobuz
that just proves RED is broken

>>105636884
>but we can see from other trackers like GGN, BTN, PTP, etc. that you can have a great tracker without making it painful.
who is to say those trackers wouldn't have an even greater collection if it was a little bit harder / uploading were encouraged? there is easy stuff missing from all 3 especially BTN lmao
but ofc it must not be too hard or too easy

>>105637170
Who is to say RED wouldn't be better with bonus points yet they won't do it?

>>105637164
Works on my machine

Aither increased their requirements on RED, a 2 month old account is required now (was 2 weeks previously)

>>105637183
OPS

I enjoy looking for music that isn't on RED and uploading it there. I actually care about lesser known music. Browsing through it looking for things that are actually good is something I consider to be a great use of my time. The only thing I don't like is checking the spectrals of every single track.

>>105637238
>extra embarrassing that their admin hasn't fixed the problem
This. It shouldn't even be a problem. Certbot automatically fetches certs from Let's Encrypt so they never expire. I manage many servers and they are all set up with this except for one so I almost never need to think about it. The only one that isn't set up with it has https running on a non standard port.

private trackers

>>105635812
Funniest part about these people that say „at least I can download what I want on OPS“ is that every single torrent on OPS has a fraction of snatches compared to RED. Obviously the people who say this just don‘t download a lot of music. RED is the tracker for music enjoyers and it shows. Not just in the amount of snatches, seeds or uploads but also how much more active the forums is.
I‘d argue that the economy on RED is much easier than on OPS. You want to download music? Upload a recent year FLAC and you‘ll get a minimum 1.0 ratio on your upload. The same can‘t be said for OPS. Even 2025 FLAC albums sometimes don‘t get snatched.

>>105636884
>>Compares an entry level tracker like RED with top tier trackers
???? I think everyone agrees that you don‘t need a hard economy on top tier sites because the users already do all the heavy lifting themselves. That‘s exactly why they are top tier.

LOVE RED
