Got TL account, do i need a Sct one?
Hello, I haven't been in the world of torrents long, but im learning heaps from just watching all you guys on here asking questions and posting answers.
I joined up here not long ago and I was very lucky to have someone give me a TL invite and i joined up and have done the right thing and got my ratio up to 1:1 so hopefully i can give invites out in the near future.
After looking around the forums it seems Sct gets great raps and i was wondering if it is worth me hunting down an invite in the near future, or is it pretty much the same as TL.
Thanks.:)

Firstly, welcome to FST :)
ScT is worth a shot of hunting if you have above 1MB/sec + DL speeds. Otherwise, TL does the job fine for all those scene releases.

Thanks for the welcome.
My current connection is faster than that, so thanks, i look to forward to getting on there.

1500/256 plan, I can't go any faster at my exchange yet. :-(

Re: Got TL account, do i need a Sct one?
state simply, do you mean 1000 kilobytes or 1000 kilobits per second?

I dunno, im saying like 1 mb/sec meaning it would take 350 seconds to download a 350mb avi file such as Heroes:P haha
Re: Got TL account, do i need a Sct one?
I think TL should be fine with a 1500/256 connection. His max download rate is 187.5kB/s, max upload rate is 32kB/s. It may be difficult to keep your ratio at 1 competing against seedboxes at ScT.
Of course, if you want an ScT account simply because its rarer or hopefully obtain invites to ScT as a future bargaining chip, well that's another story.
