OK, Talk me out of BT(pros & cons)

Also you get the elitist feeling when you are on the hot trackers.

Flame bait! lol

What's so elite about any tracker?
Proud of all the butt kissing you did to get there?

I too used to think that I was king shit with all these hot trackers under my belt. I woke up one day and realized that it doesn't do me a damn bit of good. Wasting electricity to keep the PC on 24/7, fear in lack of animosity and most importantly, it wasn't getting me any pussy. Not that Newsgroups get me any pussy, but at least I feel more safe using it.

The only thing I use torrents for these days are the very rare music files and unique items that just cannot be found on Newsgroups.

Nice post BawA, but this is not true

• Files are pred faster then BT

Depends on what trackers you are registred too,

BT- free, like filesharing should be.

You are absolutely right

I hardly have paid for my usenet experience. As somebody said earlier get a block account if your a moderate user. I then use a couple of excellent free servers and use my block account to fill. In 10 months a 300 gig block account cost me 50 quid and so far I have used 35 gig of it. So it could last me 5-6 years lol. Now then 50 quid divided by 5 years (carn't find a calculator) = peanuts.

Spending 5 years on a BT tracker uploading 24/7 must cost you a bit more than peanuts in electricity. LMFAO at pro BT only dudes... Yes I use BT to and love it but it does not come close to usenet.

It all comes from the same release groups and dump sites. So it's not a matter of pre-times, the are almost identical.

The thing is,
how long would it take you to download something after you start under the best possible circumstances?
Now how long would it take you to seed that back 1:1?

I can grab a DVD format release in less than half an hour, and .aiv in under ten and not have to seed anything back, totally done with it.

Name a single tracker you can do that legitimately on.

Why isn't it more popular then? (honest question)

my suppose is because the children dont have credit cards and use torrents and usenet is more complicated for the kids.

[bluejay]

oh, yeah, the credit card thing.. I can't really use them here in China. Forgot about that.

Although usenet has got easier some people are just too daft to understand it. I have tried spent hours online trying to get folks to use it. Either I am not a good teacher or they are pretty thick but so far my success rate has been zero. Ah well more server speed for me.
