Not sure what private trackers are all about?
The mission of /ptg/ is to promote the highest possible standards of tracker service by providing members with opportunities for professional development, by recognizing technical competence through examinations and by advancing the interests of its members.

Check out the wiki and update it yourself if you want more instead of complaining like a fucking faggot. https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php/Private_trackers

Remember the following:
>staff occasionally read these generals and have posted here before.
>staff may pretend to be normal users asking for invites and when you invite them, they ban you for inviting strangers
>people may report emails and other personal info posted here to staff to get you banned.
>most of the invite offers here are people trolling you with false hope - begging for invites is a waste of time and you should just interview
>around 60% of posters here chat shit - don't make any claims about sites based on "something you read here once"

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.

Fight copyright.

Upload more than 50 uploads to AB that aren't transcodes-at least 10 more uploads to reach 60 uploads or some odd number.

AHD/PTP/ and not sure how I will get on BTN yet but hopefully what is a good avenue for that-working towards elite there.

BP:
Download and seed torrents with very very few seeds. Seed for looong periods of time to get maximum points and maximum multipliers.

When you hit about the 1tb mark of storage you'll be making about 100k a month, from there remove any torrents which are now overseeded and giving you less bonus. Pickup new torrents to fill the space.

BTN here I cum, I got my 250$ ready.
>>
>>52595563

only to be honest-- statistics of 100k a month are pulled out of the air. i dunno if it were more or less..

also they run those promos where you get double-- all the bonuses are stackable so you will have mega points.

also having big torrents (like seasons of the wire or your other favorite shows in HD) isn't necessarily going to hurt you too much. You're limited by effort as far as the low-seeded torrents while using big torrents could net you decent BP if you seed for longer times.

i only remember having twice the points I need for my next levels and simply not having the snatches to rankup. It's 3 years later I'm still working on the snatches and sitting at 3mil bonus points.
>>
>>52595568
All but the top 2 are easy senpai, you can easily get them in a year.
I believe in you senpai!
>>
>>52595568
kek so the whole pyramid basically.

>>52595578
Not really, KG & CG have stuff that ptp doesn't occasionally so you can upload from there. I've found foreign ddl sites are the best bet though, pretty much anything that isn't a mainstream scene film rip will not be on ptp and you can upload it. Unless it's indian because ptp has some autistic curry there always uploading his honeyHD level shit.

Make sure to add the bib torrents paused, recheck them to 100%, and only THEN start them. Only then will you get any upload, if you announce to the tracker with an incomplete torrent, you will count as a freeloader and will get NOTHING.

There's way more comics and manga with leechers and no seeds if you want to build some easy ratio. You can also try cross-seeding audiobooks or big magazine packs, some can easily be found on public trackers or rutracker.

>>
>>52595601

Oh one more thing-- if you don't wanna affect your monthly electric bill by keeping your Comp on 24/7 you could try a seedbox, should be about $15/month. Torrents seeded from both IPs will also receive double bonus points (info circa 2012)

Forums should have some comparison data on various seedbox hosting companies-- bytesizedhosting is one of the greatest in my experience.

I don't know if you care about Upload stats, if you do then seedboxes are great way to get upload credit because with their superspeed compared to your home connection they can download your favorite episodes in 20 seconds, and if you're on soon after release you actually receive A LOT of upload credit per episode. Delete episodes after minimum timeframe's over because seeder competition and lower volume of new downloads will reduce your returns to near zero compared to your high-bonus torrents.

You're on point-- I realized eventually there's no point getting higher statistics where I really only wanted to be able to send-out a couple of invites and my only real activity was downloading and watching my favorite shows

>tfw after three years of snatching and grabbing torrents I still have over a month average seed time.

I haven't wasted too much time getting my ranks up & after realizing there were no savory options to obtain more snatches. Note: Seedbox on autodownload everything >100mb and <200mb is an easy way to obtain enough snatches. Because I realized my contributions (keeping older/obscure torrents alive & increasing speed to new downloaders) weren't valued I eventually simply use the site to download my favorite shows.. ratio still looks good though :)

I wanted to download this book from MAM
Franz Kafka - The Complete Stories of Franz Kafka'
But when I tried to download the torrent I got this :

" You are not allowed to download this torrent - because it is a VIP torrent, and you are not VIP at this time."

The book is available on #bookz but still it seems that many books are VIP there
What do /ptg/
>>
>>52596826

pay the bp to be VIP

its worth it

if you dont have bp go on irc and someone nice will hook you up

I had a few movies, crosseeding them, I deleted some, didn't noticed I wad disabled and when I found out, half of the movies I deleted in time but the mod asked how I made the BP and that it is suspicious and where were all the other movies at?! Banned and banned everywhere too, like what and BTN etc. :(
He asked me where I met my inviter and said I knew him on the forum as a very good user for years and he got banned cause you only send invites to ppls you know. :(

After my experience on different sites HDB is actually one of the best. No bullshit, all the relevant info up front.

Browsing on BTN is absolutely awful. The info you need is buried several pages deep and you have to open separate pages for each season. And BTN routinely hangs for 30 seconds which makes it even worse. It's a bad website design and badly made. Retarded children like it because it has shiny banners.

PTP is a bit better than BTN but still has many of the same problems. Useful info is buried too deep.

>>
>>52597223
eh, BTN is not too bad. they really should merge the knowledge base and the wiki though as information is either repeated on one or not present on the other.
>>
>>52597223
You're right. BTN is shit, regardless of stylesheet. HDB is good, but I don't like having to scroll through every screenshot to get to the info at the bottom of the torrent description, and I don't like the way that it 'groups' torrents just by listing them in the related torrents. Having them attached to the IMDB section would be good.

BTN is awful to browse, regardless of the site load. Especially the way torrents are laid out, I click the wrong one half the time. Then the information in the torrent is presented badly too.

It's a great tracker. The site itself needs a lot of work.

PTP looks good, and it's layout is very easy to use.

On HDB for TV shows if you click the banner it takes you to a nice page with expandable groups for each season. The torrents are named with the group name and use the standard HDB titles which give all the most important info up front.

For movies the "other copies of this film" section works perfectly fine.
>>
>>52597223
it's snappy as fuck though. seriously, it feels like you could open hdb, search for what you want, look and compare what's available, and download the best one, in the same time it would take to just open ptp, and it's probably true in the case of btn. and for this purpose, the hdb design is just fine.

for other things, like advanced searches, looking up collages, director/actor pages, etc, ptp blows it away.

Yeah PTP is best for browsing based on metadata, that is true.

However I prefer the simplicity of HDB. You can browse directors or actors off site and then search whatever films interest you on HDB.

Do one thing and do it well. HDB follows that philosophy and is excellent. Their staff seem more experienced and professional than any other site. Other sites are made by Jr. Devs in school and HDB is made by old bearded unix wizards.

not required on AB either.

You get bonus points for going along and uploading screenshots (up to 20 or 25 screenshots per torrent I think)

Sucks for the things that dont have screenshots, but its a quick way to make a lot of bonus points for doing almost no real work.

>>
>>52597727
I think that, to be honest, not many people actually compare screens. It's only really us top austists, and the other encoder austists that bother. For example, look how many people settle for the scene bluray releases because they're first, and don't upgrade to the p2p internals.
>>
>>52597710
The area I live in normally has a yearly snowfall of around 10 inches spread throughout 3-5 snow storms.

This ONE storm was around 32 inches, and up to 40 inches in some areas.

This area just doesn't have the equipment, man power, or salt to deal with the accumulation.

Sorry if that makes us "pussies" but when you live in an area with over 5000 people per square mile and almost no snow removal equipment, things get shut down.
>>
>>52597740
It really should be required for AB, seriously man. Or at least encouraged more. I understand that the yen is incentive to upload screenshots but you reach a point where downloading freeleech and just using the site will get you more yen.

I use to upload screenshots for yen and then I quit though I will say I do plan to upload screenshots on what I've downloaded that don't have them.

Kind of a bummer they aren't required but I guess the uploader's feelings would be - hey I did the work, let someone else do it.

For those wondering about this essay, I type fairly fast.

Absolutely horrible. I had to look elsewhere for untouched audio. Video is fine as I'm viewing it on a 720p laptop. Syncing is a pain.
>>
>>52597787
Oh I agree it should be more encouraged, or even required for new torrents.

Maybe make it a 1,000 or 2,000 yen bonus for uploading at least 10 screenshots along with the torrent. That way more things will have screenshots from the get go.

I guess your right. To be honest as well, I use to sometimes compare and do sometimes still compare even the same encode on my HDtv, little hdtv, laptop, and then if I ended up burning a film for someone I would compare the colors.

So yeah. I guess it's kind of autistic but come on. I NEED TO KNOW.

>>
>>52597816
Yes, I think that would be a neat idea. There could be a few requirements like at least one screenshot with subtitles if available.

I'm into Anime but not exactly 'weeb' and I often downoad the torrent where the uploader actually has some comments on it. To me it shows that he gives a shit and then I download that one.
>>
>>52597834
Sure let me bring my 70' 4K TV with me while I'm out of home.

>>52597858
I download 720p stuff because I have a 720p laptop. It's the friend who downloads 1080p YIFY.

I have to admit their 1080p stuff downscales well, almost had me fooled.

weebs >>>/out/ pls
>>
>>52597869
My comparisons have always just been on my pc, with identical frame screenshots. Most have been fairly conclusive, but then again I've never compared slightly different bluray editions or anything.

I try to be less autistic though, because it's largely irrelevant for me most of the time. My tv isn't good enough for me to be noticing much of a difference. I'm happy with scene most of the time for airing tv.
>>
>>52597812
They don't know any better but desu that use to be me. Except I wouldn't say I only download 1080p.

I always noticed that the file sizes of Yify was a bit suspect and that they did not look the correct resolution.

>>52597834
No, video did not look fine on laptop either.
I did some research and the truth was revealed and I deleted all the yify I had.
>>
>>52597816
The way oppaitime has start doing it is pretty neat.

Torrents with at least 4 screenshots earn 30% more BP, so even if the uploader does add them, it incentivizes anyone else who ends up in the swarm to do it as well, since everyone benefits.

I have a real TV but watching on laptop is comfy as well.

which is why very few trackers require screenshots. It's hard enough to get people to upload the way it is. Requiring screenshots is a good way to get even fewer uploads.

Gotcha senpai. Almost there tho!

Contact the mods, they will usually tell you to redownload it and just permaseed it. AB mods are swell.
>>
>>52597972
Yeah, that's the kind of comparisons I do as well. And I try to be less autist as well.
>>52597993
That is actually a very neat idea but is the extra BP for all anons seeding or just the person that uploaded the screenshots.

That's a great idea desu. Though for porn I usually just need to use the cover image or actress when it comes to jav, they are too creative/artsty with their photography sometimes.

>>52598095
better to have an incentive than no incentive.

Currently AB has no incentive (besides the normal screenshot bonus points) for uploading screenshots with a torrent. So almost no one does.

At least if there were a 1000-2000 yen bonus for including some screen shots then SOME people would go through the effort and SOME of the torrents would have screenshots.

As it stands now basically nothing gets screenshots unless someone comes through and does it for the bonus points later.
