Not spending time is justifiable, trackers are a time investment for sure. But as far as finding open signups there has been a ton of big trackers with games open recently, I recommend following the telegram channel mentioned in my previous post.
Howdy, I brought that up in my previous post, compiling sources of where to find out about open signups. But basically only two good sources right now besides word of mouth here. Of the two mentioned in the post I currently recommend the telegram channel.
I mean you did bring up a valid answer, word of mouth, aka here lol
Patience, this is a new community, but I plan to add lots of info in this regard, this is just the first in a series of posts that will make up the community knowledge base.
I could probably drum up a lot of reasons, but if i had to pick one, I would say retention. I can decide I want to download an obscure movie that was uploaded 15 years ago and not only is it still on there, but I can usually even download it at full speed.
For a website there is:
but I feel like it’s been lacking lately. For both more and faster updates I’d suggestion joining the telegram group, it does pretty well:
And it’s not even a compromise to use open trackers nowadays, several in the A-tier list have been open just this past couple months.
Well if the tracker you are on doesn’t have active forums, and active irc or forbids invites, then I’d find a different tracker to get on via either open registration or interview that does.
That’s what I was thinking but good to hear it confirmed, I’ll go ahead and add them, thanks!
Yea I’m referring less to personal rankings and more of a generalization. Aka how well does the tracker do what it set out to do. If it’s a movie tracker, has a huge library of everything you could want, old torrents are still well seeded, the site is well designed, etc, then it’s high tier.
For me, red has everything I could want, but it seems in your opinion they are missing stuff. Which could mean in a generalizing sense it could be lower than I rated it which is why I wanted to get other peoples opinion.
Also I’m trying to keep extremely niche trackers off the list as I planned to make another post about them later to add to the megathread like I will this one.
Again I said it’s subjective, if people want something changed I’ll change it! There’s been lots of complaints about IPT over the years of shady stuff going down, people losing their accounts of no reason, them wanting bribes to get back on the site, etc. I’ll agree the content is good, but the site itself and staff are not. I could see it being maybe an A tier imo, certainly not S.
Maybe someone else can chime in with what they think of pornolab compared to emp.
Route most people take is they get in their first private tracker x, then on that tracker get an invite to tracker y, then on tracker y someone invites them to tracker z. Eventually you start to rack them up. I started at Demonoid in like 2005, now I have every tracker I could want lol.
I’m curious about the drama… what happened? LOL
Oh wow, this is a big list lol. Haven’t heard of someone of these so will take a bit to work through it, but thanks for contributing!
Oh and I wasn’t planning on including public trackers, I just made an exception for Nyaa since it’s so well regarded in it’s category.
Also wasn’t planning on including too many hyper niche trackers as I was planning to make another post about those later.
I’ve heard a bit about Anthelion and Nebulance, is the retention there good?
I like it. Done. Thanks for contributing!
Sounds like I’m also behind, as someone who only plays older games and they are always on there when I search haha. So you think it should be moved down?
I’ll go ahead and place orpheus, thanks for contributing!
I like the idea… I was actually thinking of doing something similar, was going to post a community tier list haha, could supplement this. Anyways, here’s my input. I’m on team IPT staff hater, the content is great tho for a general tracker.
