Why do a lot of Sup Forums users pretend they are too good for pirate bay ?

why do a lot of Sup Forums users pretend they are too good for pirate bay ?

it's not about being "too good for it", it's just that TPB is literally an FBI honeypot

this, it's also a festering garbage bin of malware. only inept retards use babie's first torrent site in 2016 because they don't know any better

What's worse: Pirate Bay or Putlocker

A lot of Sup Forums kids can't navigate past the virus ads and malware on the site. The rest think it is a honeypot.

Look there's a couple now.

Who still goes to specific trackers? Learn how to computer.

>over 800 downloads mainly from pirate bay and no viruses

explain pleb >FBI honeypot
feels good being a britbong where its legal to torrent

please teach me

Every time I go there and search what I want, if it's not brand new or popular I get no results, or dead torrents.

RIP KAT

A torrent is a torrent, regardless where it came from. But the TPB is pretty barebones compared to KAT. KAT has a stronger community which makes it easier to tell the good torrents form the shit. TPB actually had a great community but that was long time ago. TPB got hit really hard a while ago and most people just abandoned it be it users or uploaders. Sometimes it's really hard to find stuff on there as well due to a pretty shitty search function. Add to the annoying error that you get about database maintenance.

It's still pretty good though, they never remove any torrents and you can depend on it if you're looking for rare stuff. Also hey, at least it's still up.

>all these fucking plebs and degenerates aren't on BTN and PTP

So fucking pathetic.

He's using the search function of qbittorent

t. neckbeard virgin

>pretend

there are more viruses on the Pirate Bay than there are on your mothers dick.

it really is a babbys first week on the internet place

The Pirate Bay is okay, i think its better than others for rare old music and stuff that was upload a long time ago.

KAT was the best for everything else.

t. pleb degenerate that's salty as fuck he's not on BTN and PTP

I'm Canadian, and torrents are legal to leech but potentially illegal to seed here. I used to use TPB a lot, and still do for some older stuff. The community has mostly moved on, however, which had reduced the quality and frequency of new uploads. The site isn't useless, just not as up to date as others. As for malware concerns, I find you can usually avoid that by scanning the torrent and checking the files. This isn't fool proof however, and something might get past you.

>PTP, WCD, BTN master race
>also use KG and EMP
feels good

>KAT was the best for everything else.

This. RIP in pieces. Public trackers are experiencing a real bottleneck now, just use any of (the remaining) torrent search engines and have a look. We're losing like 1 or 2 big sites a week, not to mention the user bleed from the community. I'm sure they'll bounce back but it's looking pretty bleak at the moment. I think it's a combination of authorities hitting the big players and simultaneously the rise of a less computer literate generation who are more used to streaming and on-demand. I have literally had people tell me that torrenting is 'too hard'. These are people that spend every waking hour on their phones or tablets and social media.

Lmao I have downloaded thousands and thousands of things from TPB and never once received any consequences

kat.al works (sometimes) if you don't mind popups and shit

The point of a honeypot is that you eventually have to spring the trap. If it is a honeypot then they're the most patient people in history, and have seemingly only enabled vast amounts of piracy in return for catching virtually nobody.

If you're thick enough to get a virus from using TPB then you deserve everything you get.

sent ;)

its a honeypot now

>if you use piratebay you'll get a virus
>if you use piratebay you'll get arrested

When did baby boomers start posting here?

You just use the buzzwords you read on Sup Forums and proceed to parrot them all over the website

TPB has never been any different from any other public tracker, and honeypots don't operate with magnet links

Where the fuck can I find a The Neon Demon torrent?

I exclusively use TPB but I only torrent things that are obscure and arty so nobody will enforce the copyright on them

I use Bitche religiously & have never had a problem finding torrents or DCMA's

Plus the pedestrian faggots claiming it's either a honeypot or malware because their too retarded to actually look into something now spoonfed to them is a great feeling

Bit Che for torrents, MPC-HC for playing them & Kodi (+Exodus & SALTS) for tv streams

Holy trinity

All of my this.

>still shilling kat.al
Should be a bannable offense tbqh
To any of you who have actually used it, the interface looks like an exact clone of KAT...
UNTIL you actually attempt to d/l one & get redirected to some random third party site demanding you create an account.

Stop shilling this shit. There are 0 (zero) functioning KAT siterips out there. It's dead, Jim. Move on

Hey now friendo
I have a masters degree in "Bieng a Genuis" and when I download my Yify movies they always have the obligatory .exe application. It's like the prize at the bottom of a cereal box. You run it & get surprised by what it is

Sent from my mobile device. My surprise gift .exe hijacked my browser & now I'm living in fear of my computer

fun fact: kat "posts" were clones from other trackers.

I'm just not sure I can trust it to not be an FBI honeypot now.

I mostly use RARBG. A little KAT, a little Demonoid.

>A little KAT

Because all Sup Forums watches is Zack Snyder movies and whatever's available on Netflix.

Idk why people use kodi et al when I use ps3 media server or just literally play movies off plugging my ntfs external in my tv

Because Kodi is packed with features beyond just playing a movie.

>extratorrent.cc
Next target.

Like what. Probably things i can already do. Im just looking to play a movie

This
Tons of scraper addons, a library that dwarfs Netflix/Hulu/Crackle in every conceivable way & immediate access to new episodes

Most people aren't using Kodi for movies, though
It's main strengths are as a tv stream device. For those who stream rather than torrent (for whatever reason) this gets it done without having to spam "zomg new got stream where?"

> FBI honeypot
"The land of the freeehehehehehehe"

>a little Demonoid
You have an account?

Okay I see I literally don't watch tv though because its shit. Netflix crowd can suck it

>TPB is literally an FBI honeypot
I don't pirate shit but it's well known that the FBI does not give a single shit about you downloading a movie, they just want to cut off the sources. It's too expensive and pointless to try someone in court for downloading a movie illegally.

Media info scrapers
Torrent clients, streaming clients, torrent streaming clients
Connectivity addons, I've got 5 Kodi devices around the house and they all work as one seamless system with no setup whatsoever
Remote control in every way, shape and form you could think of
Peripheral support

It's a great system

Plus the hardware to run Kodi costs a fraction of the cost of a PS3, takes up a fraction of the space and uses a fraction of the power.

Seems like shit I don't need

it isn't
if you're using a ps3 media server you've got a solid dlna setup. this is simply a different route to take.

Yeah mayne

It's gotten a bit shitty as of late though

If you just want to play movies, sure. I can just plug a USB straight into my TV if all I want to do is play movies.

Okay one question wouldn't streaming torrent clients be just as bad as seeding them. Not that I ever got a letter nor care

>wouldn't streaming torrent clients be just as bad as seeding them


It is exactly as bad. Which is another way of saying's it's not bad at all.

I can never find anything on Demonoid, did the community die or something? I know the site went down for a few years and only recently returned but it's still so shit.

Yeah, it had a series of shutdowns and slumps and it's never really recovered. It's generally my last port of call while looking for something.

Pirate bay has been taken over and is now a honey pot.

the whole internet is a honeypot

worldwide WEB

>le honeypot, le honeypot
Reminder to ignore every poster who says that at anytime. They are either too stupid or just baiting

Hello Mr. FBI...

>honeypot
This has become a buzzword at this point

>be from Eastern Europe
>have the best public trackers and download sites available with no fear of being caught

I have a feeling the squatter race will still save Europe

Just wait a few more years. KAT was also in Ukraine.

Our cocksucking politicians will give their ass to american companies and close everything.

Anyone organize their films by year I put (xxxx) at the front of every file. Of course I have seperate folders for genres.

I have films spread out over 3 hard drives and like 6 folders. Sometimes I have to download one again because I can't find it. Fuck my laziness

What I don't get is how the site went down; yeah they arrested the owner but I thought it was hosted somewhere else?

Yea it gets worse I have 8 hard drives and too many folders. But my main drives I have folders for animation, drama ~ adventure, fantasy, scifi, star trek, star wars, horror, western ~ peroid piece

My backups I don't organize the same but if I do ihave to organize by year. Alphabetically drives me insane. Plus its an easy way to remember when movies are released I'm basically autistic with anythingafter 1970

I think it was originally hosted by the creators in Sweden. Then they got busted and now it's hosted in Russia or something.

I tend to delete most of my dl'd movies after I watch them. My folder is filled with ones I've either never seen or wanted to keep

I was talking about kickass, should have made it clearer

fucking this

Download 'everything' seriously
What do you hoard anons??
I hoard films mostly mystery/drama genre
8tb and counting
300gb porn
220gb music
2tv for tv especially foreign (because they get unseeded fast)
And the rest are films mostly p2p encodes although there are some remuxes and full BD's

reupped for clarity

.avi
.mp4
Absolutely disgusting

>being a format snob
most are 'watch once' clogging up my backlog. None of em are Yify rips & they serve their purpose. If it's one I intend to keep I'll go for the 9gb Bluray rips

I'm the 3 hard drives dude. I actually don't even hoard films. When I get around to cleaning up I usually delete most of my films and leave the ones I'll want to rewatch. I stopped torrenting music a couple years ago because it's usually faster just to find it on youtube. I'd probably stream films if most of the streams weren't slow as fuck and in ~300p quality

I hoard all films and for hp star wars and lotr specifically I have probably 2 tb worth of just those series (I just got hp in 60fps) of full bds remux grym despecialized grindhouse all types of rips that I can't delete now but that are big files.


I have about 500gb of tv
10-15gb porn
And the rest is all films like 10gb or more

10TB of film*

And 80-100gb of music

I stopped hoarding recently or stopped adding films/tv to my collection anymore since my m8 has 53tb of entertainment from all over the world and that includes books/music/films.
He has google fiber so i convinced him to install plex for me to stream whatever
