Why not go private? alpharatio, mac-torrents, myanonamouse, PTP, BTN, RED, there are plenty of options.
Suggesting PTP and BTN to someone who has never used private trackers before is a bit mean.
Yeah I guess I'm old, I've been on those for 10+ years and didn't realise they don't allow new members. My bad (no irony, I am actually 42 years old).
PTP recently became possible again via RED but it is a loooong road for a new comer.
Meh these places seem like little more than a exclusive club that members can lord over the outsiders. I've had little issue finding content using a mix of 'B tier' private trackers and public sites, none of which had some long convoluted membership process. I don't think they're worth the trouble.
PTP definitely worth it.
I never really looked into PTs, I just found stuff on GOG, 1337, Dodi and FitGirl. Gotta give PT a shot one of these days. Same as usual, Qbit for DL just from different trackers?
TorrentLeech (TL) is currently having open signups with the invite code: REFUGEERARBG. Just make sure you read the rules. Also let me know if you have any questions.
According to their own news feed, the giveaway ended on June 9th
Dang, I thought it was the whole month of June for some reason.
Sorry I have no idea of what you're taking about. I'm old, I've been on private trackers for over a decade now and I haven't followed suit with other sources.
Since no one's answered this yet: yes, but with some caveats:
So I use IPTorrents, and I've heard of a lot of shady stuff with the people who run it. It's the only private tracker I've ever been able to join though. I've been wondering if there is a reason to look at others. Aside from ethics is there anything one of those you listed does that is different? Or are all trackers fairly close to the same?
IPT is a general tracker meaning it has music, series, movies, etc. The ones listed are specific to a single category that they specialize to. They can cover that category better than IPT ever could.
