Official recruitment only:

Doing the former instead of the latter seems completely retarded t b h.

WE HAVE TO GO DEEPER

Yes. They're waiting to interview for RED right now.

...

And you only need to seed 1tb for two years for it!

...

OT invite forum, any good ?

GGn, that's it for officials.

AHD invites

>BTN -> MTV
BTN -> TVV is more accurate.

>GGn -> UGC is arguably better in some aspects
If you are a /neon/, maybe.

>tfw today is the last day

How many nips are you guys making/day?

NWCD blows the competition away with a heavy load of development. Featuring Whipper support and development for Linux ripping, new tool for fast cross-tracker uploading, Gold standard FLACs, and various more improvements

>Focusing less on obscure content means Redacted isn't all that much different to the general subscription services out there.
>thinking private trackers are about preservation
oh, my sides

Great, but they're lacking one thing: content.

TVV is not a general TV tracker. No matter MTV's failings, it is not comparable to TVV.

5585

nani the fuck?

are you actually serious?

standards beat content! everyone knows that.

Remember to donate to the OT FL pool!

Go back to Exigo, pleb

Except it is. It's a general TV tracker that doesn't allow recent shows, that's all. And it still has more series than MTV.
Look at it this way
BTN: 18'000 series
TVV: 10'000 series
MTV: 2'500 series
Which one do you think is closer to BTN? It's obviously not MTV. Also, let's just not forget that about 50% of the torrents on MTV are unseeded.

You're forgetting something: not everyone needs 18000 series, and MTV is comfy.

what's that?

I am also spaghetti so...

Does MTV have standards?
Can't hear you, too busy listening to the glorious sound of standards.

hi s*aghet*i

>spaghetti
who?

>I am also spaghetti so...
No you aren't. I only make 360 nips a day.

in 2 days GGn will kill the 6h freeleech

i can't wait when every new torrent gets 2 snaches and the sites dies out slowly

they can get the content with the Jason scripts, we'll see.

TVV is amazing for classic tv. Been there since the beginning and would never give it up. But it's a niche tracker and no normies needed. Does MTV have classic tv? If it does, then maybe they're comparable.

I'm going to upload their internals to ruTracker

the pastaman is everywhere... except the cabal trackers

This is what I am using to currently seed everything I have. That entire HDD.

Is it too much space?

Lol, their tracker is buckling from the load.

No, MTV is mainly for new shows.

~1500.

What do I do with all my nips? I have plenty of buffer, so...

Upload them to UGC

Over 500

Schadenfreude's great isn't it?

In that case you don't need BTN and would be better off at IPT.

>Does MTV have standards?
None at all. Even public trackers are better, no joke.

It's not a niche tracker you dumb fuck. Not allowing series than 5 years is not being niche.
MTV barely has currently airing shows, and everything old has no seeders at all.

You will start running out of place pretty quickly. Also, remember to back up that HDD. It's going to fail one day, and you will lose everything.

does UGC have any freeleechs?

is it hard to keep a good ratio on UGC? i just wrecked my GGn ratio and with the new changes im probably have to abandon it

They have weekend FL, inlcuding some FL games, some staff picks and bonus points.

From the UGC faq:

A torrent will be freeleech if
-The Freeleech Week-End is in process (every Friday, Saturday and Sunday at utc/gmt time) -The size is over 15gb
-It's an internal release (Breaktime)
-An upper staff feel like it
-It's likely you'll have the option to gain freeleech period or token in the future by spending bonus points but it's not implemented yet.

UGC has FL for two days every weekend, and a generous BP system. Really really easy there.

well i guess im going to UGC then

How do they keep seeders? What's the incentive?

ITS HAPPENING

PTP RECRUITING AT AB

ELITE+, >1 YEAR

People can download exactly what they want, so they don't have to permaseed 6tb worth of shit to stay out of ratiowatch.

That means people are generally more willing to permaseed the smaller amount of torrents they actually wanted to grab, even without needing to.

Being a nice guy :)

NEWS: Official Apollo music video is out

How does BTN keep seeders? Same thing.

:^O

fuck this gay earth

Apollo blows the competition away with a heavy load.

Lighten up, user. I could give a fuck about MTV. Neither does TVV. TVV is proudly niche.
I'm pointing out that comparing TVV to other general TV trackers doesn't make sense, unless all you want to do is compare the number of torrents.
Also, it's 7 years, not 5.

>That means people are generally more willing to permaseed
Why though? I figure most people would download, delete and move on.
I think BTN in an exception. MTV and Hydra.zone show the contrary.

>he can't access the PU invite forum at AB

probably a shit ton of uploads

calm down, zed
