Old thread >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.
Remember the following: >Staff occasionally read these generals and have posted here before. >This is a thread for educational purposes only. Don't offer or ask for invites. >Staff may pretend to be normal users asking for invites and when you invite them, they ban you for inviting strangers.
Somebody please recommend me a way to use my 25 PTH tokens.

What have you contributed to APL & PTH APL:7ul, 3 perfect flac's PTH: 21ul, 2 perfect flac's
Isaiah King

Eli Hill

Cameron Rodriguez
meh, a bit early but I didn't want to risk a hook shit op with mr semen around
Michael Watson
Get greatest hits shit and the best of stuff. Also getting shit like classical or jazz compilations are good.
Caleb Smith
Will they unban me if I've been inactive?
Asher Flores
Spend them on FLAC torrents with 1 seeder. You'll get more buffer in the long run.
Are you able to upload to PTH or is it retarded like what.cd?
Nathan Rogers
it's retarded
Luke Torres
3/10 b8 m8
Austin White
You can upload. Don't worry about your stuff being trumped; no one will download your stuff to find out that you just upped a youtube2flac!

As a legit member of the piano technicians guild, I do not approve the procurement of the logo.
its distracts the hell out of me

Jack Collins
spindrifter (Elite TM) I don't have, and have never had a seedbox. They seem to me to be a way for the over-privileged to obtain an unfair advantage over the rest of us.
I think the whole concept of being able to buy favours is politically, socially, and morally wrong, so everything I up- and download relies on my 6 year old pc.

can someone tell me which sources can have a log score? I know of CD and Vinyl Any others? And is it only for FLAC? CD vinyl don't have log scores afaik? I've seen some with a score Vinyl do not have log scores. no?
>vinyl > I've seen some with a score
Asher Campbell
you clearly don't come here often enough there's plenty of guys staying thread to thread there's a fairly active irc on rizon too
there's plenty of LEDDITORS around here and in irc lately, but if you're keeping an eye you can see the real folks
Jackson Campbell
He is right though. The thread full of retards that came from leddit and google with What demise.
Adam Sanchez
they don't really care if you can play one. you have to pass a written test that has to do with restoring pianos, materials, what not to use, and some tuning theory.
then there is the much more difficult tuning test where you have to tune a piano to spec without any tuning aids except an 1440 tuning fork, in front of a panel of "expert" tuners, who get to decide if your job was up to spec
you can take hours and hours if you want, but it has to produce a near perfectly tuned piano by ear
Jacob Turner
ok, so it's a bit like the pth interview then? cool
Andrew Johnson
jesus christ
Alexander Allen
an a440* fork It took me two tries to pass the tuning test but it was worth it
for some reason people tend to only get their pianos tuned by registered technicians dumb as hell if you ask me. its not THAT hard its not like its dangerous or anything, just takes lots of practice and I guess the cert. proves that you've done it before
Christopher Hill
kek, sounds autistic as fuck
I like it.
Adrian Lopez
nope, that must be fake, soz
Gavin Allen
it's true though, some vinyl flacs have a log included
Gavin Ross
Is there an easy way to get BP fast on B*N?
Jaxon Hill
can someone tell me which sources can have a log score? I know of CD and Vinyl Any others? And is it only for FLAC? CD vinyl don't have log scores afaik? I've seen some with a score Vinyl do not have log scores. no? If they do then it's a *.log file that is not actually an EAC Log or it's a mis-tagged release Worth checking out to see if it needs to be corrected if you run into them oh, that might be it !seen Z leanvix good girl that is ) is that one a mistake? the Vinyl with 100% log link? That's probably not good. the link is there click it apollo.rip/torrents.php?id=290743 no link showed up here until that last message of yours :) Yeah, somethings fishy about this vinyl. mislabeled is my guess More QC to the people my guess, its this release discogs.com/Phineas-Newborn-Jr-Please-Send-Me-Someone-To-Love/release/3234218 also, whats fun is that the log shows .mp3 files I wish people cared more about their uploads why does it show a flac first and then a mp3? It's note xactly helping our reputation /Volumes/LACIE500/easynews/Torrents/Phineas Newborn,Jr. - Please Send Me Someone To Love (1969) [LAME MP3 (CBR 320kbps)]/02 Rough Ridin'.mp3 Maybe they dumped to both FLAC and MP3? Transcode? leanvix: You're probably right, that matches with the wikipedia page -> es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phineas_Newborn,_Jr. Only one way to find out...

Same as any other tracker. Seed as many small files as you can.
Nathaniel Martinez
Doesnt work there as far as i know.
Gavin Price
my favorite part is B just fucking ignoring it all
big season packs with only a few seeders for a while. once you get thos months of seedd time multiplyer you're golden
Joseph Reed
he's too busy trying to fury roleplay with Z to give a fuck about anything

Apollo staff are incompetent, but aren't afraid to admit their mistakes and listen to the community. PassTheHeadphones staff are semi-competent, but act like snobby know-it-alls.
Jayden Johnson
Apollo SysOps are former WHAT.CD Administrators PassTheHeadphones staff are literally who? fls shit
really makes me think!
Ethan Rogers

John Howard
What does PTH even offer that Apooloo doesn't?
Adam Clark
this is how people like trump win
incompetent but appeal to the masses vs semi-competent, when they need help probably seek someone with knowledge on the issue
then for some reason people think incompetence being led by the masses is a good thing?!? idgi
Christian Martin
Damn yeah you liked Sanders too right?
Chase Bailey
The prime difference is pth staff would rather be honest and call you a retard than fellate and lie to you just so you vote for them.
Adam Powell
When will apooloo have a points system?
Aiden Murphy
>PassTheHeadphones staff are semi-competent, but act like snobby know-it-alls.
Welcome to staff at every competent private tracker ever.
Adrian Powell
if by ' listen to the community' you mean make monumental and embarrassing fuck ups, then make total u-turns after a massive backlash against such stupidity, then yeah
Sebastian Clark
soon!
Anthony Cook
Over 100,000 more Bandcamp releases
Chase Fisher
in the primaries, yeah
Owen James
>he thinks staff can implement a points system in 2017
Lincoln Perry
How soon? Unless you download something super popular there's no point in seeding.
Caleb Richardson
