still no clue what the fuck a private tracker is

>RED is hemorrhaging users
>forums are a ghost town
>most torrents completely unseeded
>PTP requirements higher than Apollo
>RED staff caught faking stats again

Why did it have to be this way?

I am a ultra l33t hack0z and i spoil ya animez

>do_robots_have_dicks
According to Asimov YES

>tfw AB recruiter has forsaken you

>uploading so much on KG its interfering with my internet

Where's the news?

>anime degenerates shitting the thread up already

so glad GGn is dying

If GGn dies where will I get all of my video game kino?

>climbed to BTN from WCD without seedbox or port-forwarding
memes

UGC returns soon, friend

How safe am with seedbox and private tracker in Sweden?

private tracker gays?

ipt

>MFW I genuinely like UGC more than GGn

>with seedbox and private tracker
Completely safe.
>in Sweden
Not so much.

Still true about APL, not about RED.
Still a shitpost copy/replace.
Still fake.

sekrit club for torrents
you get kicked out for leeching too much without seeding, so there's a guarantee that torrents will have good numbers of seeders and shit

The circle of life.

YURI ON ICE IS A NICE ANIME WATCH IT PLS

This isn't the place to find out, since most people here are profoundly retarded.

You know how when you go to Pirate Bay and you want something a bit off the beaten track and you either can't find it or there is one seeder and he doesn't connect so it might as well not even be on TPB? That's one of the primary issues private trackers solve. Using various strategies to keep people seeding and uploading new content, they ensure more content is uploaded and stays seeded. Many of them use ratios (you must upload data to download data), bonus points systems (each tracker has their own), or some other means of making sure you don't just download stuff, never seed, and go away.

Most of them specialize in content (such as music or movies), or are super-specialized (a specific genre of music or movie, for example).

Very useful if you aren't just getting whatever's popular today, you want faster download speeds, you don't mind a bit of effort, and you want better selection.

Are you a qt grill?

NO

fujos are not qts, user

what a CUTE thread!

my fellow rotten nigga

what up my b

So will RED let me join w/o an invite or interview if I give them proof that I was active on what.cd?

haha dude youre nearly a year fucking late with that

I never knew it was even a thing until I heard someone mention it recently. I just got lazy and gave up on private trackers for music. Been bottomfeeding from Sup Forums share threads.

haha fucking pathetic
post your top 5 albums of the year and I'll give you an invite out of pity

In no particular order:
Tera Melos - Trash Generator
Mac DeMarco - This Old Dog
Father John Misty - Pure Comedy
Neil Cicierega - Mouth Moods
Mount Eerie - A Crow Looked at Me

just take the interview, it's easy, if you were on what you should know all that stuff

typical numale taste

get better taste senpai love ya

Is the wait time not greater than 4 hours?

What's happening with GGn? Just random downtime?

i took it recently and i only had to wait like 30-40 minutes. i did it last week and there was only 4 people ahead of me. read the prep site though and don't use it when you're taking the test.

Have it loaded up but don't access it during the test. Alternatively, find another site that has it cached.
Your ability to paraphrase can get you through, but understanding the main points is the most important part.

or you can just take screenshots of each page and just save it somewhere

Thanks fampai.

interview.apollo.rip :^)

Anime is trash.

Don't fall for it. Half the people who do this will just report you. Take the interview.

>
>
>
Interview for a site which used to have open registration, and is full of useless bottom-feeders waiting for other people to upload because everyone got used to freeleech.

Makes sense.

>PTP from RED now requires TM
>GaneshGames is still only elite gamer
What the actual fuck

>mfw people begin to realize that RED is considered below even GGn by the cabal

LOL

>Finally get into PTP after waiting over a year
>More movies than I could ever hope to watch
>Tracker down constantly so I can't watch what I want
So this is the power of the cabal

Use TehC!

You niggers think cabal is a thing.

>not having a backlog

What does gazellegames have that can't be found on IPT?

downtime

95% of the site can't be found on IPT

DELETE THIS RIGHT NOW

MusicVids is cabal
I bet not one person here is on it

DELETE THIS YOU MADMAN

>took red interview
>listed ipt and tl as trackers im on

who else /fuckingmadman/ here?

I have the same username and email on BTN, PTP, TL, IPT, and OT. (they can see my IP anyway lol)

fucking marked

OT is pretty good I guess

It's enough that the database gets leaked. One of your private trackers may be already a honey pot.That's pretty unsafe.
If you wanted safe, public trackers + shared IP VPN that keeps no logs and isn't based in your country or in America or in a country your country cooperates with is the best option.

>passthepoo tracker down again
lmao

312c is doing it

PTP is SOO curry. The tracker is down again. Jesus. I'm going back to HDB. Never had these issues.

If I have a 150 megabit upload connection with no data cap is a seedbox a waste of money? And if it is, what's the best torrent client on Windows for uploading? I've been using qb for the last few years but despite having over 6TB of seeded content on HDB, I still can't seem to get more than 17ish GB a day of upload.

I get 170 Mbps upload on speedtests so it isn't my connection or a lack of peers - even on newish seeds, it seems to cap out around 3 MB/s. Is qb being shit at seeding just a meme or are other clients legitimately better?

with tens of thousands of users, if a site was ever seized the only ones to worry would be the biggest uploaders and high level staff, I doubt they'd care about power users

I did too. UGC was /comfy/, and always had what I needed.

oink was seized and they got everything. the only person every prosecuted was oink himself. they also took it down when the industries were suing the shit out of people, they don't really do that anymore

>If I have a 150 megabit upload connection with no data cap is a seedbox a waste of money?
Depends on what you're doing
>best torrent client on Windows
>qb being shit at seeding just a meme or are other clients legitimately better
Try utorrent 2.2.1, I've had nothing but problems with QBit

With that approach public trackers are safe too.

>upload 100%log+cue flac to red
>only 1 autosnatcher

fuck this gay earth

I think I listed those 2 along with JPS when I interviewed.

Might want to look into the definition of peering. Sometimes location and connectivity is more important than maximum upload to all of nobody.

is 312c on suicide watch after getting kicked out of PTP?

>upload perfect flac
>no autosnatch
at least you got one

downloading items super fastly and streaming them to my plex server

plex is useful but it's so fucking repulsive

>PTP goes from 50 torrents and 100 GB to 500 torrents and 500 GB
Jesus christ.
At least I'm in already.
in b4 marked

Just joined animebytes ironically. What anime should I watch first?

redpill me on plex

Doukyuusei (the gay movie), Cowboy Bebop (if you haven't already), Kemonozume, Nichijou.

i am in actually. Happy birthday to that shitty tracker

Amaama to Inazuma

NAOKO WHERE

The tracker is down. We are working on it.


Bebop and Nichijou are mandatory viewing. The rest is extraneous

Urusei Yatsura

>Bebop

>watch bebop to see what all the fuss is about
>it's stupid as shit

why is this recommended everywhere?

K-On.

It's normalfag shit from toonami days what did you expect actual taste?

Did OT just make an announcement about how great they are and start 502'ing minutes later?

It's not good. Neither is Homer. But, they are necessary for appreciating other works in the respective medium
(Nichijou is hilarious tho)

host is applying security updates

ALEXANDRIA

Are those the invite requirements?

Basically, yeah

The dirty dozen. Go to myanimelist and watch the 50 lowest rated anime.

If you're really a fan of complex anime, you need to know whst bad is.
