1st for ban sarek.

2nd for ban sarek twice

go to bitspyder.net/log.php for the latest freeleech picks

3rd for iPT is best

sarek would crush a roach like you

only reason people hate him is because he black

RIP TEH

6th for ban sarak thrice

first for pth did nothing wrong

What's the new address for TEH?

The tracker is so dead the staff forgot to renew their domain, lol.

And it isn't even the first time, happened like two years ago I think too.

Didn't they also forgot to renew their certificate earlier this year?

these IRC hook shit is literally the lamest part about /ptg/ desu

There isn't room for a tracker like TehC. The plebs are on trackers like IPT and PrivateHD, and the ones who are willing to put in the effort are on cabal trackers.

Torrents in general are on decline, like 70% of film piracy now happens on those shitty streaming sites that are full of pop-ups and other intrusive unsafe ads. Torrents only account for like 27% of the traffic, and Usenet the rest basically.

they're not even interesting conversations
i could post some good ones but i'd definitely get banned in some places

WHere was you when teh was kill

I was at home on computer when piotr call

>Teh is kill
>no

its back

>speshul seekrit online Rules Are Important Respect Mah Authoritah clubs result in mental illness-ridden recluses tasting power and screeching at other mental illness-ridden recluses who want that pointless shiny bauble
i'm not surprised. look at my face, that's how not surprised i am. this is a horrible place full of terrible people

>piotr
More like Sunil or Rajeev

CURRYTIER!

>shitty streaming sites that are full of pop-ups and other intrusive unsafe ads
>not using Kodi+iStream
>calling other plebs

i have good feelings about specifically PrivateHD though. Aviztaz and the whole slew of websites that they owned has been doing great work these past year. Their frontend now is around 300x times better than any cabal trackers

Did I say I use those sites? This was on a report by some anti-piracy outfit few months ago.

If you like shitty encodes then sure. :^)

>tfw it would've been a 50gb request

>TehC torrents total amounts to 50+ thousands, and its backup according to /ptg/wiki is PTN which have less than 10k torrents

i want 2016 to end desu senpai

Daily reminder that the name sementaco is not even remotely funny

>he hasn't completed the triforce

>not being on ptp
also is it officially dead? I wouldn't be surprised if they simply forgot to renew their dns

>only reason people hate him is because he black
I can't think of a better reason

fuck off semontaco

It's not officially dead.

They've had problems for couple of days now.

sarek=nignog

there are anons ITT RIGHT NOW who are not unironic baby furs

>set normal priority on some preview pics as the only things to download
>deluge grabs 20mb of the videos instead
sup widdat

>using deluge
Ew.

Fuck off Daniel

nice trips
deluge sucks dongs, rtorrent thx

the trips of truth

>mfw pth discord link has expired

Hello why is teh down? Did they get busted?

No one knows sorry mate.

>tfw post-ironic babyfur

Raided. News will be up in under 24 hours. Tracker and database have been seized. Sorry guys.

Good now I don't have to seed

possibly forgot to renew the domain

The tracker itself is down too though, is that the same as the domain?

the torrent is split into pieces of a certain size (eg for a 1gb file people usually split into pieces that are 512kb/1mb). these parts are random and so a picture file might be in the same 'piece' as a part of a video file, your torrent client downloads the whole piece because that's what it's designed to do (some clients hide the excess files).

It's a very common thing when partial seeding.

Kinda. The tracker itself uses the domain name.

according to whois.eurid.eu/en/?domain=tehconnection.eu the domain has expired.
this has happened before so hopefully nothing to worry about

I have faith in the dubs of truth

>tfw in AB, KG, APL, JPS, PTH
>tfw just want a 32p account for franco-belgian comics
>tfw never gonna get a 32p invite because you're not gay

I disagree, been in the game for about 7 months and I've levelled up on every tracker, to at least PU (mostly Elite)

I got in at the worst time, because the PTP (or AHD) recruiter never got back to me before what closed (I was an Elite).

So now here I am, someone who would be in (one of) the cabal right now moving up. But I'm stuck at Teh. I'm sure there's a few like me with great stats but bad luck/timing. and I guess that's what Teh is for.

I honestly don't understand the hate. Their layout is great, their IMDB scraper is great. They have all the quality P2P and Scene encodes and SD releases, and so few dead torrents. Even when there is a dead torrent, you just jump on it and usually a seeder will get back on it within a day or two. Also their staff is so based, not a single power hungry faggot. Also it's got a comfy user count of 12,000, not too big, not to small.

Is PTP really that much better? Why, is it just more torrents, or also because its a bit easier to get buffer?

Also I'm Elite on PTH, which i guess at this point is my only chance into the cabal hopefully

i figured the pieces were smaller than what i was grabbing, but i was grabbing a lot of files so that makes sense

Are there any invite threads on TorrentLeech?

I'm on HDB, BTN, PTP, PTH.

IPt has everything except maybe the music. No point climbing.

You just confirmed what I was saying. Even you just wanted to use TehC as a stepping stone.

How much better is PTP? Frendo, they have over 7 times as many torrents, so I think you can make some guesses.

I was on TehC, I used TehC, then I got into PTP from TehC. I've not downloaded a single torrent from TehC after that.

TEH does get some love in this thread user, probably for many of the reasons you state. It's a decent and reputable tracker, albeit with a much smaller number of torrents than PTP.
But inevitably, because it's not the best in it's niche, and not cabal, it will attract the curry memers.

>still no dedicated HEVC/x265 tracker

Same image quality. Less than half the filesize.
>entire walking dead 1080p in less than 50gb
>any image quality loss is unnoticable unless you pause the video and study the image with a microscope

COME ON ALREADY.

>HDB, BTN, PTP, PTH.
all hail the glorious Quadforce

>performs like shit on slower systems
>no real hardware support yet
>slow as fuck encoding

It simply isn't complete yet.

There's an invite thread on the PU forums for AB.

>heterosexual man
>join gay-torrents.org just because of the climb

This private tracker game is bringing me to places I don't want to go. Now I have 500gb of gay porn on my computer. Hopefully my girlfriend does not find it.

damn I guess it's just a waiting game at this point, although now I'm kind of pissed I built up >1TB of buffer and got to Producer on Teh, only to know that the minute I get on to PTP I'll probably never use it again.

Honestly I don't even want to get onto PTP, it's just another stepping stone. BTN is the only tracker that seriously has the stuff I can't get elsewhere. Does BTN historically recruit from anywhere else besides PTP and HDB?

>HDB
What's the point though, you can just get HD movies on PTP, HD shows on BTN. It seems like a lot of effort for nothing.

Yeah but I'm not gay so the guy is gonna look at me and give me a big no.

Because HDB's retention is PRIMO.

the only reason anyone uses hdb is for their encodes

I heard there's a torrent site for magicians only, is it true?

no

Nope. HEVC cannot produce transparent encodes at the same filesize as a proper x264 equivalent. All HEVC encoders are still too immature. When x265 or another H.265 encoder becomes mature and this becomes possible (and it will) then you'll see HEVC internal encodes on HDBits, et al.

But right now you cannot produce even the SAME filesize in HEVC as an x264 encode with the SAME picture quality. It is simply not possible. Let alone less.

HDBits has said they will immediately allow it as soon as an uploader posts comparison screenshots (source||HEVC encode) and it's indicated as transparent and an x264 encode cannot do any better at that filesize.

>doesnt use gazelle
trashed

im going to scream

fellow anons where does EMP recruit from now?

anybody know?

So /ptg/ what are you downloading today on pornolab? you're abusing the freeleech user, aren't you?

nowhere. join for now.

What happened to TehC? Is it dead?

I thought it was busted or something? The site is alive?
Anyway
>downloading porn
Ughh.

Ok, my friend is a famous and well known magician in my country, i wanna try get him an invite, where do i start?

I think you have to perform live tricks on Skype to apply for Art of Misdirection (artofmisdirection.com/)

You don't. If your friend is famous and well known enough, he would have already been approached by an Icon.

With Teh dead and PTP "fuck off, we're full", what's the next best for movie/miniseries?

IPT

see above you lazy mexican

TehC just forgot to renew their domain

x264.me doesn't have that many torrents but they do have high quality internals and a comfy community

I'm on PTP, TehC, Cinematik, Karagarga, BTN, HDbits and x264.me is the comfiest of all in my opinion.

Season packs are usually freeleech, as are all internals. The internals usually have extra audio tracks and subs

But we're not American or European, maybe they never saw him before? is there anyway to contact them?

They contact you.

The question is, why do you need BTN and PTP when HDB has both movies and TV? It seems like extra disk space you need to dedicate to seeding for very little benefit. If HDB doesn't have it, it's probably going to be very obscure.
