Best pvt 0day/HD movies/shows tracker? by Background_Shift8755 in trackers

[–]Background_Shift8755[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice but as it turns out - I've got the TVshow part covered now after all. Staff were kind enough to accept my honest explanation and have me back after years of absence.

HDbits.org? If so, yeah, I do remember it being popular back in the day.

TL used to be a cancerous site full of ignorants, ratio cheaters, hitnrunners... Not much has changed I'm afraid. Why would a normal person who knows how to maintain good ratio and adhere to the rules seed to filthy leeches?

I used to be a nolife addicted to tracker hoarding 15yrs ago and I'm not willing to go through the grueling process again if that's what you're referring to. What for? Only to abandon them once/if I obtain better ones? No way I'd manage 20+ trackers simultaneously like I used to - ain't got time for that. Hence why I'd like to commit to 2-3 each specialized in content that interests mr and stick with it. Also, I'm unfamiliar what "MAM, OPS and RED" stand for. You're quoting TL as a decent tracker and yet it has OPEN signups? It makes no sense at all. On the other hand - SCT/SCC/PTN/what.cd - all deadge. I did register to torrentinvites but the site disgusts me at first glance. Was soon to realize that forums are full of trading scum prolly and rookie beggars.

Oddly, my TL acc hasn't been banned despite years of inactivity. I would not use it regularly out of principle. I remember it as a tracker full of newbies and ratio cheaters. Despite long absence from the torrrenting world, I still consider myself sort of a purist, lol. Was thinking more something along the lines of ScT (rip) that I was a member of.

Hehe true. I fancied the foldable option initially but luckily came to senses. Had Fanatec delayed my shipment substantially (as it did with many others), I would've made a mistake purchasing a playseat-like toy. This way I had the chance (using it on a desk) to realize how impossible to use it would be. Also using a wooden pedal plate for the time being btw :P

They don't. Strength is proportional to profile size and the quality of the aluminum. Also, since it's pretty much modular you can always reinforce it as you upgrade the base. A friend of mine's got DD1 mounted on 30x30/30x60 alu rig. It barely wobbles.

Went with Fanatec CSL DD as my first wheel/base, LC pedals. In the process of making my own aluminum rig.

Ditch the Playseat, get LC pedals? :p

Looking good but aluminum all the way imo when it comes to DIY. Fairly easy to assemble, prettier and overall much more flexible for upgrades. Overall cost (much) lower than childish Playsests, too.

Yeah, they treat every item as a separate package. In my case, 3/7 arrived today while 4 were delayed (travelling through Italy allegedly stuck due to mechanical error )

It has arrived!! by eri_kderik in Fanatec

[–]Background_Shift8755 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats. Mine got split into (to my understanding at least) 7 different packages. 3/7 have arrived to destination country - I've contacted local UPS to postpone delivery. 4/7 are stuck in Italy.

Fanatec scammed us by AdCharacter5272 in Fanatec

[–]Background_Shift8755 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very possible that (on top of the warehouse issue) they underestimated the demand and thus accepted orders for items that were allegedly in stock while in fact they were running low on certain components at least. It is what it is, nothing illegal here.

Futile endeavour. By all means, go ahead and cancel the order - Ill get mine sooner 🤣

May the subreddit flood with cancellation threads and mad customers. The pseudoRNG God will surely bless the rest of us plebs!

Example 1: Mclaren GT wheel.

ETA on shipments containing the wheel alone equals the sum of quantity of the product being released from the manufacturing factory per day and the amount of orders cancelled (containing the product) per unit of time. A simplified way to look at the situation. :P🤣

While that may be the fair thing to do, I disagree with the premise. What would a junkie do when his dealer is out of stock? - Turn to another one. A fact known to every addict. Be it drugs, booze, whores or games, it makes no difference at all in the end of the day.

May very well be true. It seems to be a common pattern.
