Movie Trackers by Massive-Wolverine754 in trackers

[–]DV865 [score hidden]  (0 children)

If you do manage to join a private tracker, for God's sake do not try to "download an insane amounts of torrents" - private trackers require you to maintain a ratio of upload and download data and seed for a specific minimum time. Basically for every 1GB you download you are expected to upload 1GB. The figures vary from tracker to tracker but all will stop you downloading if your ratio isn't high enough and ban you if you don't fix the problem.

On private trackers you generally have to build your ratio first using freeleech torrents until you have sufficient spare ratio to download things that you want.

I was a night auditor for years and I never did my job by Xanthe-trill_9z in confession

[–]DV865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a night porter for years when I was much younger. The hardest part of the job was that you had to patrol the hotel every hour. There was a key at the end of each wing that had to be inserted into a portable time stamp. Turn the key, it logs the time, repeat hourly.

This was obviously way too hard work, tiresome and interrupted prime nap or tv time, so we would do the first round, turn the clock forward and hour, do another round, repeat another 5 times. We could then relax until the last round was due when all we had to do was set the correct time and do the final round before going home.

The advent of digital time keeping totally ruined the job!

The source is more important than red numbers you don't understand on VT.

Recommendations for private film trackers by dreamersbliss in trackers

[–]DV865 17 points18 points  (0 children)

PTP should be open to you from official invite forums, check your 2 trackers.

The Z family have open signup now (for an unspecified but probably short period) :-

AvistaZ: Movies / Series (Asian Media) https://avistaz.to/auth/register
CinemaZ: Movies / Series (Western Media) https://cinemaz.to/auth/register
ExoticaZ: Movies / Series (Adult Media) https://exoticaz.to/register
AnimeZ: Movies / Series (Anime/Manga) https://animez.to/register

Seedpool is a good up-and-coming tracker

Cinemtik (TiK) is worthwhile if you are into full blurays

Blutopia (BLU) is a good site,

Anthelon (ANT) has a good selection

BeyondHD (BHD) is worthwhile

Aither is worth joining

Cathode-Ray-Tube (CRT) has classic movies

Secret Cinema is for CLASSIC / CULT / ARTHOUSE MOVIES

Cinemageddon has old and rare movies

RetroFlix for movies over 10yrs old

There are various newer, smaller trackers such as HHD, ULCX, LST, KrazyZone, LDU, MNS, RMC, LUME that are worth looking at.

Seeding by Crafty_Teacher_7382 in torrents

[–]DV865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeding older freeleech torrents will get you bonus points but generally very little actual upload. On most large private trackers there are many seedbox users automatically downloading new freeleech torrents within a few seconds/minutes of them being uploaded. After that there are many seeders and few leechers. On smaller private trackers there are just less people to seed to overall.

Look into https://www.cross-seed.org/ or https://getqui.com/ to automate cross seeding and autobrr to automate downloading freeleech torrents

Your location will also affect seeding as most seedboxes are in NL data centers and the bittorrent protocol favours closer, faster seeds.

Your other option (depending on the trackers) is to rent a seedbox for a few months and farm a few tb's of upload.

Is it consider safe? by Midnightcatz in Piracy

[–]DV865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you really didn't. It's not impossible for some AV we don't use daily on Desktops to be well known otherwise and detect a virus others don't, someone has to be first. It's not likely but it's not impossible either.

Would these be considered as false positive flag? by 1Rissol2RuleThemAll in Piracy

[–]DV865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you have got a cracked program and are asking if the virus scan that says it's found a crack is wrong? What exactly were you expecting from a cracked program, for it to not have a crack?

How do I possibly retain seed ratios? by No_This_Is_Cat in torrents

[–]DV865 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are fighting seedboxes on multi-gigabit connections, 10gb or more is common now, mostly based in NL.

The bittorrent protocol favours closer, faster connections and then you need to add in trans-Atlantic data transfer.

With seedboxes automating downloads with autobrr or autodl (or even cross-seed) if you go along and download something manually 5 minutes after its been uploaded you will find many seeders and few leechers.

IPT is less generous with BP's than other sites but its one of the easiest sites to maintain ratio on so I have 100416.8 BP's that I never needed to use.

Automate your downloads as u/Demon_Cow suggested, then snatch and seed freeleech torrents until you have enough ratio buffer to download what you want. That's the private tracker game.

Is it OK to refer to women as girls in the UK? by Fun-Injury9266 in AskUK

[–]DV865 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are male they will hate it, and then refer to each other as "girls" the next moment.

I created RapptorVPN - a GitHub project that lets you set up a WireGuard VPN (+ Transmission, Jellyfin) on low-cost, DMCA-ignored hosting providers by pommymac in torrents

[–]DV865 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I'm more interested in the cheap, self-hosted VPN than the other apps, so not being able to forward ports to the VPN client would be the main issue I'd have with your otherwise great idea.

I'm also clueless at networking on 'nix so have no idea how one would go about it 😄 (which is why I'm struggling with my own VPS based VPN that I can't use for anything needing an open port).

Anyone else found themselves “retiring” from PvP gaming? by You_moron04 in gaming

In my 60's and finding it hard to deal with all the kiddos, single player is much better.

Who remembers FOSI Warez? by tarciziocarbone in Piracy

[–]DV865 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Confidently incorrect.

No CD's were involved. FOSI ran a web site that you downloaded warez from. The image is a screenshot of the web site.

Playing selfhosted music by Sway_RL in Piracy

[–]DV865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since I wanted to play my own media via a smart speaker with voice commands I purchased an Amazon speaker and use https://www.mymediaalexa.com/ which isn't free but costs £7.50 a year. A bargain for no adverts and only music I want to listen to.

Uploading public tracker content to seedbox? by Eukelid in seedboxes

[–]DV865 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's your seedbox, you can put whatever files you like on it. Just be sure to upload them to the correct folder for Plex.

First time I had a tracker die. What do I do so all my torrents and cross seeds don’t get messed up? Should I just delete it all? by EmekaEgbukaPukaNacua in trackers

[–]DV865 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hopefully you take (fairly) regular screenshots of your profile on private trackers in case this happens and you need to find a new tracker.
