I've gotten into three private trackers. Now what?
>>51373018
Make PU on them.
first for TARS
How do I download What torrent?
>>51375022
tixati
Second for being comfy due to alcohol
>>51373018
Make PU, add more trackers if you need them.

Life is good.
What happens if I had a torrent that happens to have the same file structure as an existing one to rTorrent? Want to grab all the freeleech on wcd but can just smell problems.

Is it a matter of waiting a few hours, or should I contact the staff?
>>51377243
Doesn't work how? All you have to do is follow any NFS setup guide and it works.
>>51377243
>>51377265
Be aware that a lot of the guides aren't going to work any more. systemd changed some of the parameters.

>>51377190
Anyone?
>>51377960
people are in >>51366689
the files will most likely overwrite each other and things will fuck up, unless rtorrent has a mechanism to prevent this ( i doubt it)
>>51377253
contact the staff
>>51377140
It's better use a NAS for that.
>>51378014
Seems like it downloaded it to my incomplete folder then attempted and failed to move it and became paused after failing to find the files in the new location. Does mv fail if the destination folder exists? If so that's pretty nice, just throw them all in and the dupe names will fail to move, I can move them manually.
>>51377960
just download them to different locations and organize shit manually, most torrent clients can keep up with shit if you rename/move stuff while the torrent client is running
>>51378492
For 800 torrents? Nigga you serious?
Anyway it seems to have resolved itself conveniently since I split up incomplete and complete torrents, see >>51378436
>>51378505
>800 torrents
that's about 45mins to an hours worth of work organizing with a dual pane file manager
Guys I just reached the requirements for BTN invite on What....
Hold me /pyramid/
What client can manage 40,000 torrents?
>>51378566
None of them can. There are no torrent clients written that scale that high up without shitting themselves.
rtorrent comes closest (I've seen people claim 10k), followed by transmisison(~5k), then a power gap, then probably utorrent.
>>51377657
>>51377725
Thx guise checking these out later
>>51378566
Rtorrent is what I've heard recommended for things in the ten thousands
>>51379328
>tfw right now rtorrent is crashing while I fiddle around adding 1200 new torrents
>>51379364
Have you tried adding in smaller batches? 2bh I've heard people recommend it who built up to sizes like that
>>51379399
It's weird actually, first 800 I did all at once and went fine but then I threw 100 more and it's throwing a tantrum. Also ruTorrent is failing to show trackers on the left now unless I click on each individual torrent so it recognises them.
>>51379453
write a script fa.m to move torrents from a folder to your rtorrent watch folder one by one but with a 1 minute delay between each one. I started 500 torrents like this on my shitty server
>>51380193
It's working now. ruTorrent is being frustrating and a little messed up though. The tracker category is now blank, it won't load the information. Guess it got overloaded.
>>51378611
I've seen rtorrent do 18k.
Note: rtorrent, NOT rutorrent. rutorrent struggles with 3k.
>>51377253
ask radigast to enable it for you.
>>51379453
Close rutorrent and add them with your watch folder 100 at a time.
>>51381001
I used watch folder to add them originally. Like I said they're all in now, working 100% fine on rTorrent's end. ruTorrent is just throwing a tantrum that it has too many to deal with now or something.
>>51378555
>not just getting btn content on like every other tracker
>>51378555
I just have to wait the 6 months. Getting the uploads was piss easy.
>>51381061
10/10
>>51381077
That's all I was waiting on
>>51381061
That's maybe true if you're on HDBit's and SDBits where most of it comes from but for most people joining BTN is easier.
>>51381116
Does AHD require 6 months too?
>>51381248
>>51381248
Read the pastebin
>Q5
>How do I get into BroadcasTheNet (BTN)?
>A5
>BTN recruits from AwesomeHD, bibliotik, PTP, and what.cd. AHD/bib/PTP threads are in the POWER USER INVITE FORUM, the WCD thread is in the ELITE FORUM. All of them require SIX MONTH OLD ACCOUNTS. THere is NO EXCEPTION to this, period. There is no orhwe way to get into BTN unless you personally know a staff member, and if you do you're already in BTN. So let's recap: If you want to get into BTN you need to be PU on AHD, bibliotik, and PTP or be elite on WCD. And you need to WAIT SIX MONTHS. So take the fucking interview.
>>51381268
Perhaps you need comprehension lessons. That is talking about getting INTO BTN from several trackers AHD included. It is not talking about getting into AHD.
>>51381285
That's not what your post implied at all, and my answer to you is to still RTFPB
>>51381307
Well to clarify my post was about getting into AHD from What, not getting into BTN from AHD. And the pastebin mentions no wait time which is why I was asking for anyone who knows or can access the PU forums to check.
>>51381307
There is no wait time. BTN is a special case, 99% of all recruitment threads have no wait time.
>>51381339
Thanks.
Alright dudes, here's the deal.
I've got a server running transmission-daemon with a little over a thousand torrents and growing and it's starting to lag from all the torrents. Is rTorrent really better for thousands of torrents and if so is there any easy way to migrate all my torrents from transmission-daemon to rTorrent while preserving stuff like state and seed limits, and are there any good rTorrent clients for Windows?
>>51381399
I'm running over 1000 torrents and it's working peachy-keen.
I've gotten up to 1300 before and it worked just fine. Post your config.
i still need to thank one of you fuckers for recommending spirtualized last week

>rtorrent
w-what?
rtorrent handles 10k easily. Rutorrent, it's graphical client, only does around 2000k well.
You should just use rtorrent/rtorrentextended/pyroscope or multiple instances of transmission
>>51381456
>2000k
lawl, I meant 2k
>>51381456
>Rutorrent, it's graphical client, only does around 2000k well.
Why is this and can it be fixed? What happens if you pass that limit? Does it just shit itself or load half or what?
>>51381438
flying saucer attack - s/t and duster - stratosphere are the only others i have tagged as space rock in my library, and i like both of those, you might want to check them out if you haven't.
>>51381482
it's just a limit of the program, it's threading and how it grabs info from rtorrent, it's just doesn't scale well enough to handle that many.
I'm not sure if it's fixable since I don't know much about rutorrent's code.
>>51381500
thanks familia
you're all lovely
>>51381482
It's slow as fuck past 3k eventually starts crashing. No it's not fixable.
>>51381506
Well if they haven't managed to fix it by now I doubt I could by taking a glance at it.
>>51381511
another album i like is skywatchers - the skywatchers handbook. not space rock, some kind of electronic rock/pop idk, but definitely space themed.
>>51381506
>>51381518
Apparently using nginx and unix socks helps, won't fix it but it ups the tolerance a bit.
>>51381399
>and are there any good rTorrent clients for Windows?
Do NOT use rTorrent on Windows. It's a huge pile of shit on Windows. It'll crash at around 200-300 torrents.

Anyone know an easy way to get the .torrent for multiple torrents in ruTorrent? Like 100s? Annoyingly Get .torrent only works per torrent for some stupid reason.

>>51381791

>>51382206
the session folder has all the .torrent files. They are names as hashes. Rutorrent shows the hash for each torrent
>>51382441
Yeah but I need to grab specific ones unfortunately. Having others would be worse than downloading them 1 by 1.
>>51382296

Hey Transmission users, how do I sort my list by how much I've uploaded?
>>51383087
>tfw made an account there a few years ago when you didn't need an invite but now I can't remember the email
Gonna have to stick with stream sites I guess
>>51383143
Ratio is more important than mere upload.
>>51383195
I know but I need to find out which one of my 49 torrents actually uploaded something over night. The bottom right tells me I've uploaded something but I can't pinpoint which torrent it was, let alone towards which tracker.
>>51383143
Use a client that doesn't suck.
>>51383240
I was afraid of this. What client is the best for connecting to leechers? Transmission always connects me to some dude via encryption but the speed is permanently 0kb/s.
>>51383267
I should specify that I'm connected to some guy with an encryption icon but I'm always seeding 0kb/s to him.
>>51383267
Sounds like you didn't port forward and stick in a firewall exception more than a client issue desu. It could also not be your problem at all, maybe it's that guy?
>>51383292
I'm fully port forward checked and connectable. It might be the guy because I can see that his progress isn't budging from 1% for days.
>>51383304
Assuming you've had no other issues it's almost certainly that guy.
>>51381865
Myspleen is pretty good for really obscure comedy.
Asked in /sqt/ too but you guys probably know more about the subject... Will I see reduced seeding performance if I am seeding my torrents out of a virtual machine? Really want to try switching over to a Linux client to get away from uTorrent once and for all (most of the Windows alternatives I don't like much) but it's not really practical for me to switch over from Windows entirely right now.
>>51383590

sorry f.am, I should clarify: desi.cd is only good if you want indian 'classical' music.

how many torrents do you guys think I can get on an old 2 GHz Single Core with 512 MB RAM running with rutorrent?
I just need to farm some points and dont expect them to be active.
>>51384678
Doesn't really matter how many ruT can handle on that machine, rT will handle 1000s on it no problem, which is what matters especially for point farming.
>>51384678
Thousands if you configure it properly.
>>51384678
>Rutorrent
Probably 3 or 4 torrents.
>rtorrent
Probably 5 or 6 thousand
>>51383853

>>51385285
ahaha what? why not?
>>51385404
Admittedly didn't look super deep into it but it looks like a REPLACEMENT for rTorrent? I don't have that kind of access to my box.
>>51385416
You should be able to build it without root, however, I just use barebones rtorrent anyway. Just werks.
If you'd like to be ultra spoonfed like a faggot, here's a pretty simple guide I found by typing 'rtorrent' into google.

>>51372851

Empornium is HUGE probably has it. If you list them somebody might look for you.
>>51385592
Thanks, is empornium hard to get into?
>>51385630
At the moment it is because the staff are incompetent and have to work on their security, even some of the bigBoys here aren't on it. It used to have open sign ups though and might again soon.
>>51385652
Oh, too bad, thanks though
>>51385695
That's okay, feel free to stick around and have a read of our OP if you have interest in other content, this is a pretty /comfy/ place/
>>51385568
Scene names?
Is there a faster way to build upload on wcd or do I just have to grab loads of shit and wait?
I know of requests but frankly I'm massively outclassed there. My only chance there is to find shit online and by the time I have it and have verified it's good someone else will have done it first.
>>51385950
>faster
Autosnatching with a seedbox.
>>51385983
Tried doing that but my success rate for seeding back over 1.0 wasn't too hot. Some were really lucky and went 2.0 but a lot didn't even make it to 1.0. These were 2015 releases in FLAC/V0 too. Overall wasn't really working.
>>51386020
And you were definitely using a properly configured deluge for that?
>>51386030
rtorrent with autodl-irssi
>>51385950
your best is to grab all the freeleech and seed. You won't get much buffer. Roughly 3-4 Gb a week (thats on the downside)
>>51386038
Deluge is for autosnatching as it's more aggressive in the inital swarm. Move them to rtorrent after 48 hours if you'd like to permaseed them.
Or just:
>>51386069
>>51386074
>Deluge is for autosnatching as it's more aggressive in the inital swarm.
Interesting. Why?
>Move them to rtorrent after 48 hours if you'd like to permaseed them.
Might have to do this set up just because it makes met wet.
>>51386087
>Interesting. Why?
Literally because it is. I'm not going to source or explain any further as we had the conversation to death in the early days of /ptg/ and the only reason people still ask is because I forget to add torrent clients to the OP.
>>51386116
>I forget to add torrent clients to the OP.
You should, would be useful.
Do you know if feral will do something weird if I select to install deluge? I only ask because the software install page has radio buttons, and while unlikely I can totally see it uninstalling rtorrent to put deluge on.
>>51386087
it lies. It tells the swarm that it has pieces which it doesnt have causing them to connect to it. I guess its kinda of a white lie
>>51386134
No no it works fine I've used feral before.
>>51386143
>it lies. It tells the swarm that it has pieces which it doesnt have causing them to connect to it. I guess its kinda of a white lie
I'm surprised that's allowed.
>>51386146
Ok good. Should I just point my autodl-irssi set up to Deluge watch folders instead? Or does it have its own thing I should use.
>>51386175
well its not like it causes the peers to download invalid data. Its more like sorry fa.m; I dont have that piece maybe you want this one instead
>>51386175
>>51386183
It doesn't report false data to the tracker or have any otherwise adverse effects.
You should also use ltconfig for maximum /pyramid/, for the settings to use you should quickly flick through the last 30 pages of the 'best seedbox provider' thread on what.cd where phixion, sigkill and other bigBoys are discussing it.
>>51386229
Should I be changing any of the default deluge settings or just ltconfig ones?

pyWhatAuto vs autodl-irssi?
Really struggling on wcd. Downloaded stuff and literally noone else has downloaded it after me. Transcoded some flacs and noone has downloaded them. Auto dl some 2015 flacs and SSD deluge autists steal all the buffer. Guess il have to wait for the next freeleech or whatever.

Its not stealing the buffer, any more than someone who runs faster in a competition steals the prize.
Run faster.
>>51385950
The way to get upload on WCD was to downloads loads during the site FL. The next way was to grab the staff pics within minutes of them being announced.

TTN is giving invites:
https://www.reddit.com/r/trackers/comments/3sbr4a/tv_tracker_suggestions/cwvwzh9
#ttn-invites on irc.digitalirc.org
lads I uploaded a 100% FLAC with .cue to WCD but it appears below the 320 mp3 one, why doesn't it appear on top as it happens with any of the other torrents?
I really don't want to ask in the forum.
>>51387227
TTN is not titans of tv. TTN is the exact clone of BTN, with not much in terms of uploads. Everything including rules and theme is same. They have no creativity. Dont bother joining.
>>51387293
aw fuck, sorry m8

i think totv has an invites channel as well though
>>51386667

Why the fuck is the autoadd plugin not showing up in deluge? I tick it and I cannot find it ANYWHERE.
>>51387410
was there by chance two different versions, one for python 2.6 and one for 2.7?
>>51387435
No, only one entry displayed in the list and I looked it up, it was discontinued as a 3rd party addon and was packaged with deluge since 1.3 so there's nothing to install.
I have python 2.7.
However this did pop up when I first ticked it.
Error loading script:

>>51387330
TTN is not a new tracker either. They used to be called RaidThe.Net, and before that DiffuseThe.Net. The tracker was dead as it gets, only bots uploading torrents. Staff AWOL. TTN is a waste of time.
>>51387459

Well that would be pretty retarded. All I did was click install deluge from feral's interface and it set this up by default seemingly available. If it doesn't work that's retarded.

Can I survive what.cd without autosnatch scripts etc?
>>51387563
I forget exactly, but it was covered in a previous thread. I think it is something like a combination of DownloadThemAll, a script, and the freetorrents=1 search query. Maybe it checks them every 15 minutes or something.
Really just lurking here is pretty good, or use the RSS feed of the news/blog.

>>51387661
Thanks. I want to take the interview but I'm busy this time of year and I'll use it maybe in a month, should I take the interview now and have the account without downloading or when I have time take the interview?
>>51387672
Personally I would take the interview ASAP, the older you account is the better.
>>51387675
That's what I thought, I will surely login every day but I'm afraid of inactivity/no-use rules (my first serious private tracker)
>>51387682
What.CD regularly runs scripts to disable users who have not used their accounts for four (4) months. There is no functionality to "park" an account; all that is needed to avoid being disabled for inactivity is to browse one page while logged in to the site. Users who cannot or choose not to do this are disabled automatically. If being away for more than four months is unavoidable, you must either become a Power User (or higher) or donate, as either one of these will make you immune to inactivity disabling.
A new invitee that confirms his or her account will have one week to log in for the first time before that account is disabled for inactivity.
>>51387682
It's not that strict, you don't have to login daily. Just put it on your startpage and login every few weeks or so. Read the rules for the exact requirements.
But join now and add any freeleech to start getting some buffer for when you do use it, and check here later this month and early next month for the staff picks if there are any (very likely will be)
>>51387706
>Read the rules for the exact requirements.
>>51387700
>>51387700
No, I'm not talking about that inactivity of not logging in but not actual use of downloading.

Doesn't matter.
>>51387645
Probably not.
Any 2015 flacs will automatically have 10 seedbox seeders. So you will never make ratio off them unless like another 50 people download after you so thats out the window.
Ive had some luck grabbing some stuff that doesnt have any auto snatchers and the initial uploader has a slow connection. Then when someone else downloads at least for the first one you get most the upload.
In general its a bit of a curry tracker where people are encouraged to upload anything and everything which dilutes both the overall quality of content and the available upload.
>>51387726

here's a screenshot.
the AAC one was there before mine.
I also forgot that the log was actually 45%, but whatever, I've seen logs with negative score and are still top of the list.
3mb uploaded on the latest flac freeleech in a week is that about right?
>>51387784
Just upload the MP3, and trump the AAC. I have never seen that. I have never seen a CD AAC. jiggybiggs be damned.
>>51387839
alright thanks, and when I upload the mp3 does it "trump" it automatically or do I have to do something?
yes, I'm an absolute noob at this private tracker shit.
>>51387896
Not 100% sure but I'm fairly certain you have to report the torrent you're trumping. Double check though.
If a torrent gets trumped or deleted do you keep your upload stats from it?
pls BTN me
>>51387969

>>51387989
thanks
>>51387951
Yes
>>51388003

>>51388012
You keep the ratio and buffer not the upload credit. Sorry I read it wrong
Is deluge at all superior to rtorrent if you have all the files from the beginning? Like you created the torrent.
>>51388059
No. Not by any significant measure anyway.
Is there an RSS feed I can use to find out when PTP is recruiting?
I'm on What.cd.
>>51388098
No.
I'm thinking of getting into Waffles, TehConnection, AnimeBytes and Bibliotik.
Which of these are hard to maintain a ratio on?
Also, do they prune you for inactivity?
So do btn/ahd/ptp (or whatever the good ones are) have any quality control? Some of the trackers i'm on now have like 12 torrents for one movie/show varying in quality, or they're really similar. I mean what is the purpose of that?
>>51388123
Yes they have intense quality control.
If you would like an example just ask me to look for something.
>>51388144
Nah i trust you. Thanks. I was just a little demotivated seeing what's basically piratebay/KAT but with more seeders.
>>51388072
So use deluge for autodl racing and handle everything else with rt?
>>51388180
Which tracker are you talking about, out of interest?
It takes a little bit of learning to work out what makes a good encode and which sources don't compress well but in general:
AHD internal = good
HDBit's internal = good
And BTN's P2P encodes and caps usually come from HDBits or are internal so = good.
>>51388190
yes.
>>51388120
Yes
Are private trackers real? Or is this an elaborate plan by the authorities to eventually lock us up forever, one day?
Just think about it. All of the private trackers store every single bit of data.
Peer IPs, peer upload, peer download, snatchlist, seeding list, total uploaded, total downloaded, top users by amount seeding, top users by data uploaded, top users by data downloaded, every single forum post, username history, etc
Will I eventually get c u c k e d one day? All the prolific uploaders, encoders, VIPs, and staff who aren't part of the plan will eventually be raided by the authorities and all of us will have to serve jail time.
Are private trackers a top secret elaborate joint long-term operation by all of our countries' government? Do some of the staff, or the SysOps secretly work for the government?

This is probably the best/fastest place to ask this question.

>>51389565
What? AB staff are fine. Tentacles is a great interface and they're pretty good at implementing changes. It's slow because potatoe does all of the work.
Staff at bakaBT are the ones who are complete retards.

>>51389935
It shouldn't be. What is a long game, someone will snatch whatever you're seeding at some point. You won't have a required ratio until you download 20GB, and even then its only .05
Just grab the FL, you'll be okay.
>>51386667
>Really struggling on wcd. Downloaded stuff and literally noone else has downloaded it after me. Transcoded some flacs and noone has downloaded them. Auto dl some 2015 flacs and SSD deluge autists steal all the buffer. Guess il have to wait for the next freeleech or whatever.

Why doesn't What.CD just go ratioless
>>51389993
>Why doesn't What.CD just go ratioless
Because that would be the dumbest shit ever. Low-filesize content needs ratio to keep people from leeching and running.
>>51389993
>Why doesn't What.CD just go ratioless
Because it only works for TV shows. Haven't you noticed that yet, retard?
>>51390021
Actually no. It would be fine aslong as there are still the promotion goals which people will try to achieve.
>>51389993
A BP system with a archivist class would improve the site much better.
>>51390046
>>51390021
how does rutracker work then with music being seeded despite being low file size
or rockbox psychocydd
etc.
>>51390064
>how does rutracker work then
I've always wondered that too
>>51390049
>It would be fine aslong as there are still the promotion goals which people will try to achieve.
You are retarded. Nobody gives a shit about those userclasses. 95% of stuff on What.cd is under 1GB and you need ratio in order to keep people from hitting and running. Also, music doesn't go out on some set schedule or comes out in packs like TV does. That's why ratioless works for BTN and not any other tracker.
>>51389983
Potatoe has done more for AB than you ever will. And the rest of the staff are more than competent. More competent than staff at high profile trackers like WCD/BTN/PTP? No, but AB is much smaller than those trackers.
How is bakaBT better when it only allows 1 rip not chosen by the community or any quality standards? Or when they ban certain shows because they're too retarded to become an actual private tracker? They have no idea what the fuck they're doing.
>>51390077
Why do you assume people would hit and run
They don't hit and run in Rutracker, ratioless tracker.
>>51390064
>how does rutracker work then with music being seeded despite being low file size
Because it's not a real private tracker and there's millions of Russians seeding yet there's still only 1-3 seeders on most FLACs.
>>51389993
People would just stop uploading and the request system would be worthless.
>>51390093
Russians don't download FLACs
Source: I'm (almost) russian
>>51390093
But it works. People seed and I have gotten lost and lots of FLACs from there. Some do hit and run, but it doesn't fail rutracker as good bunch of people keep seeding.
Why wouldn't same happen in What.CD?
>>51390102
They don't stop uploading to Rutracker or Rockbox Psychocydd.
>>51390089
>They don't hit and run in Rutracker, ratioless tracker.
Yes, they do. RUtracker is not private and it has more users than the Pirate Bay so they have way more seeders who live in Russia and don't give a fuck about the law.
>>51390120
Numbers from rutracker are really amazing thb
>>51390089
>They don't hit and run in Rutracker, ratioless tracker.
I always hit & run on Rutracker.
>>51390120
So they might hit and run but good amount of people still seed with good connections.
Why would not same happen in What.CD?
Are English people so selfish compared to Russians?
>>51390119
>Why wouldn't same happen in What.CD?
Because What.cd is private and has only 120k users while RUTracker has millions and holds more than just music.
I know you faggots are upset that you can't get ratio on What.cd, but it's NEVER going to go ratioless because of the problems that the staff know will come if they made it ratioless. They already don't have HnRs so just deal with it.
>>51390089
>Why do you assume people would hit and run
>
>They don't hit and run in Rutracker, ratioless tracker.
RUTracker is mostly people who hit and run. The difference is that millions of Russians don't give a fuck about the law because Russia won't come after them for piracy.
>>51390102
>the request system would be worthless.
This. The request system is the best thing about WCD.
>>51390141
Are you dense? Rutracker makes up for shitty users with sheer volume of users. When you have shitzillions of people snatching the same CD, there will be one or two who keep seeding.
>>51390148
So private site users are selfish and wont seed without kickb& on their throat?
>Has more than just music.
but to seed music you have to seed music what does this matter that someone shares games or movies there? sharing fallout4 doesnt mean you can share jon hopkins discography flac there.
>>51390160
So what if there are h&r people when there are good amount of people seeding stuff with good connection?
So What.CD exorts people to break the law in a pseudo-private community, so they are not good hearted people sharing because they like to spread culture like good hearted slavs that openly oppose the copyright system by openly sharing music?
Why would not people seed without threat in What.CD when they do it in Rutracker and Psychocydd
What makes private tracker to 'I wont seed if you dont threaten me with kickb&'
>>51390180
So you are saying What.CD users are shitty?
>>51389993
It would kill the seedbox market. Every other tracker worth getting into is either ratioless or has a BP system that grants basically infinite ratio. Excluding Bib and HDB...and I guess GGn.
I need an older version of µTorrent 3.0, but I can't seem to find it anywhere that is a proper source for it. I found one, tried installing it after unblocking and every other fucking thing that got in the way, it still gets blocked
>Ratioless trackers have worked for ages now that people figured out BP systems and points system.
>Somehow What.CD is unique place where such thing would not work.
w.cd keks on kekkold watch desu
>>51390196
So you are saying What.CD admins/staff are tied to seedbox market? Do they sell their own seedboxes or something? I see your point now if this is true.
>>51390203
Lel why homods put these shitty word filters?
>>51390191
99.9999% of all users are shitty.
There are two ways to combat this: Force users to act less shitty, or have so many users you get the 0.0001%.
>>51389993
Requests. Ratio free sites suck ass when it comes to requests.
>>51389993
Look at libble.me to see what happens when a music tracker goes ratioless. No content and no torrent retention.
>>51390212
Don't know. Was just saying what one of the results would be.
>>51390191
>So private site users are selfish and wont seed without kickb& on their throat?
No. They seed more than public tracker users because they love their community and they want to build their stats.
>Why would not people seed without threat in What.CD when they do it in Rutracker and Psychocydd
Because rutracker is not private, has mostly russians who don't give a fuck about the law, and has millions of people hitting and running as opposed to the pirate bay which has millions of people hitting and running and 99% of them leave because they think they will get arrested if they seed.
>So you are saying What.CD users are shitty?
No. He is saying that RUtracker's system makes users into shitty users while What.cd's system makes everybody a good user.
>>51390239
Look at rutracker.org to see what happens when a music tracker is ratioless.
Content and seeds.
>>51390106
Russians here download flac. Source: I live in Moscow. I am not Russian, but close to everyone I know is
>>51390259
>>Look at rutracker.org to see what happens when a music tracker is ratioless.
Rutracker is not a music tracker and it is not private.
You can't compare it to what.cd at all. The users mostly come from Russia and Eastern Europe while What.cd users are mostly American and Western European.
>>51390259
rutracker is a public tracker and has 13 million registered users. Stop crying because you can't get a decent ratio.
>>51390255
>y seed more than public tracker users because they love their community
They love them so much that they need a kickban threat to seed? You have just said their users wouldn't share if they weren't threatened with kickban.
>Rutracker is not private.
Neither is W.CD you can take the interview and get account.
>Mostly russians that don't give a fuck.
and What.CD users break it just as much. what do you mean by this?
>hit and running
so? People-still-seed.
>Makes everybody a good user.
So good user is one that gets threatened with kickban if they don't seed rather than seeding out of pure love like Rutracker seeders?
SOmehow people that are threanted with kickban from tracker + seed are better than people who seed voluntarily without any threat on rutracker?
Are you a kekkold?
>>51390282
Why wouldn't W.CD users seed without a threat since they saw so much trouble registering there with the interview or being PU on other forum to get invited.
Why do they need additional threat to seed
>>51390283
>They love them so much that they need a kickban threat to seed?
The whole point of a private tracker is to keep the good users who want to seed and kick out the bad users who don't want to seed.
Rutracker still has seeders only because they have millions of people who know they will never get sued for seeding because Russia protects them.
>>51390272
I have 30~ russian friends and every single one of them either listens to music on streaming websites (vk.com) or downloads MP3's on rutracker. You can also compare how many seeds MP3 discography and FLAC discography/album have on rutracker, most of the time MP3s have 2x seeds.
>>51390296
>threat
What threat? You can hit&run on What, you just won't get any upload.
>>51390283
>rather than seeding out of pure love like Rutracker seeders?
They seed because they are Russian nationals who can't get sued under Russian law.
>>51390315
I have almost 3TB music library of which good portion is FLACs from Rutracker and I've mostly gotten them with good speeds.
>>51390313
So why don't just ban hit and run people
You are making me ocnfused.
You are saying to kick the hit and run people who don't seed yet you say you can hit and run on what.cd without consequences
>le magical file size is the cut off for ratioless tracker to work!11
[Citation needed]
>>51390339
>So why don't just ban hit and run people
Because the ratio system is enough to make them seed for sure.
>>51390339
I'm not saying everyone downloads MP3's, maybe around 70-80% do.
>>51390363
so just like in What and Waffles where v0s are by far the most popular version?
>>51390357
So they need a threat to seed? They need a kickban threat and threat from the national government (breaking copyright law) to seed? What a weird bunch of people..
Is it worth getting Titty Monster on o****t***?
>>51390379
>So they need a threat to seed? They need a kickban threat and threat from the national government (breaking copyright law) to seed? What a weird bunch of people..
90% of people around the world will not seed unless they have to, so you just force them to seed or leave.
>>51390379
Nah, mostly 128-320 CBR. Some of my friends don't even know about VBR.
>>51390379
>So they need a threat to seed?
People are selfish, deal with it.
>>51390396
Why do you care if they seed if there are people who will seed with seedboxes
What's the point
>>51390410
You really think people would buy seedboxes to seed on a ratioless tracker?
>>51390430
They do on multiple movie and tv-show trackers.
>>51390283
Rutracker is like kat.cr, no different. How is it not a public tracker?
I dont have to register at kat.cr to download anything, same at rutracker. Kat.cr doesnt track upload or download, same at rutracker. Kat.cr uses DHT, same at rutracker. I can simply search DHT, and not visit kat.cr or rutracker and still search and download everything they have. I can hit and run anything I want.
Come back when I can do any of this at what.cd, and then tell me it is a public tracker.
>>51390430
I idle 24/7 in my seedbox providers help channel just to have up to date status, and I can assure you that people do that.
>>51390410
>Why do you care if they seed if there are people who will seed with seedboxes
Seedboxes make people work harder to seed under a ratio-system.
>>51390430
>You really think people would buy seedboxes to seed on a ratioless tracker?
BTN has lots of seedboxes.
>>51390387
No, the tracker is down all the time.
>>51390452
>>Seedboxes make people work harder to seed under a ratio-system.
?
seedboxes will take the torrent and kekkold the rest of the people trying to seed it with home connections
literally no use trying to seed vs. seedbox.
>>51390469
stop being poor and buy yourself a seedbox or a decent home connection.
>>51390469
>seedboxes will take the torrent and kekkold the rest of the people trying to seed it with home connections
Seedboxes have to dump their data in order to keep getting more buffer because they have limited space that they have to pay for. Home users can get ratio by never deleting their content and seeding 24/7.
Guys we're like 50 posts over bumplimit
>>51390497
>Guys we're like 50 posts over bumplimit
Tell that to the crybabies who want WCD to go ratioless because they are poor and can't make PU to get to other trackers.
>>51390495
>seedboxes can't have couple of cheap WD 4tb drives
what lmao
>>51390148
Sure not ratioless but they should offer more freeleech torrents more regularly. It would allow more people to get more buffer which in turn allows them to download more non free leech stuff which then gives more upload to the users seeding those. People will still permaseed, people will still fill requests noone loses out. They have the right idea in making it ratio based but its way too extreme. There isnt even bonus points for seeding.
>>51390469
>literally no use trying to seed vs. seedbox.

The more they do that, the less people take a chance with the non-freeleech stuff.
>>51390599
Somethings wrong with your tracker if people are scared of downloading senpai.
>>51390599
Nope because they would have more buffer to play with. Basic economics.
>>51390572
I'd kick you out if you were to somehow get into website I monitor.
>>51390557
>There isnt even bonus points for seeding.
If you give people bonus points, there's no point in seeding all your content. They would just seed the content that gives them the most bonus points
WCD works just fine by forcing people to work hard to get what they want.
Can't you just admit you don't want to work hard and just want to do the least amount of work to get everything you want?
>>51390589
>implying
>>51390615
>Nope because they would have more buffer to play with. Basic economics.
You mean the buffer they got handed to them from a few staff picks instead of them taking a risk by downloading albums and just keeping all of them seeded?
>>51390629
Ok, I admit it.
>>51390628
What's the point of having TBs of buffer if you don't download that much? I rarely use wcd.
>>51390629
Then you make the bonus points system incremental based on how many torrents you are seeding. Its not rocket science m8.
>>51390653
The cancer of What.CD basically.
They should just ban seedbox users and people who have too much buffer for being crippling autists.
If you do not support the economy you get banned. Folks gathering buffer don't support economy they choke it like Germany does in Europe and then causes half the banks of Europe to fall down.
>>51390673
This.
>>51390673
>They should just ban seedbox users
Or make it so that freeleech does not apply to them, like HDBits does.

yeah it's unbelievable especially since they've been doing staff picks more often than ever and even gave a freeleech.
What's the status of compilations on what.cd?
What about greek music? Is there much?

On a seedbox m8. Cant help if its a curry tracker where noone downloads m8.

Seriously? If you can't find a way to get a buffer with a seedbox, you are literally retarded.

Mate, I don't seed hardly anything on WCD because I make enough bank during FL and staff picks. Their system does not encourage long term seeding, it encourages pump and dump seedboxing and racing any popular or FL torrents.

What if all three?
>>51391111
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>51391227
There must be a main one.
>>51391211
This.
I'm literally not seeding anything on WCD except stuff I uploaded. Maybe if WCD fixed their tagging system, I'd bother seeding my music library because I'm not making 2 copies of my library just to have one for seeding.

No really. Tied between music and trackers desu senpai

And that's why constant FL and staff picks are bad.

Damage control. If the staff was competent how come some of them left? Go be a faggot shill somewhere else
>>51391132
I've got enough buffer to last me 5 years or so, but I thought I'd start seeding things again what with all the freeleech stuff.
I got like 3 gigs of upload total this time versus 20 per round of staff picks in the past. Dunno what happened, but fuck that.
