BCG is good not great

[stoi]

which tracker is great, i bet there are not many if any that are great in everything.

we tend to pride ourselves on retention, not shown off here but

PC|Windows 4404
PS2 1606
PS3 951
PSP 1365
XBOX 360 1493
Wii 2714
DS 864

Not sure many places can match that, yes music trackers will have more torrents, so will movie trackers, but then there are a lot more albums/movies out there than games (and older systems are usually in packs IE we have got all 30,000+ C64 games probaby but they will be in 1 torrent, not 30,000+ torrents)

BCG is good not great

please allow me to present my views from a beginner's perspective in the BCG

the DL speeds are good
the pre times are moderate(i couldn't care less, i am willing and happy to wait a few hours)
the content is awesome, 2nd only to Demonoid maybe
retention is fabulous i found every game that i didn't find anywhere else (Example: Darkstar 1)
the ratio is fair for low Upload bandwidth users like me
the community is great, it feels good to be among like minded people who can and are wiling to help you in case of trouble

p.s.
i may sound like a fanboy here
but Demonoid and BCG are the only two trackers i hold in highest regard
i am a member of many high profile trackers like TL,IPT,BG,PTM etc
but they wont be able to wean me off these two heayweights

Freeleech:

There is no freeleech but the bonus system makes it not needed.


Bonus System:

The bonus system is called seed points and it's one of the best bonus systems out there. It allows you not to worry about downloading a large torrent, no matter of your current ratio.

Invites:

Invites are called referrals and they are given automatically to members that meet the following requirements:

Torrents with a Global Ratio of 1 >= 50
Torrents with an Actual Ratio of 1 >= 25
Torrents with an Actual Ratio of 1.5 >= 10
Torrents with an Actual Ratio of 2 >= 5
Your own uploaded torrents, this encompasses requests filled and own torrents in your table >= 2
Average Seeding Time >= 10 days
Member 6 months
50 gig downloaded

There is also a referral request thread in the forums for which you would need:

- at least a member for 6 months
- no HnRs
- up to 2 "seeded HnRs"
- actual ratio of 0.5 <-- this may be changed sometime depending on the number of requests
- none of your old referrals may be Kitty Litter or worse (banned, etc.).
- not more than 1 orphaned account or unused account (ie. referred someboy into the site and that person doesn't even have a single torrent downloaded)
- 1 referral per month (with special announced days adding up the usual count....like birthdays or whatever)
- not too many warnings in your history <-- This can only be checked by staff
- 25 completed torrents
- Having said thanks on your torrents.
- 10 days average seeding time OR several uploaded torrents
- have at least a few forum posts....so that this request is NOT your first. And those post should be from the month BEFORE this request takes place. -------> changed to at least 30 spread in a good manner, ie. not all from last month or last week when you decided to get referrals via requesting.


Forums and Community:

The forums are quite large and have a fair amount of activity. They run monthly competitions, especially in the design section.

Ratings and Comments:

Content: 9.5/10 - There's hardly anything you won't find on BCG and for those which fall under that category requests are filled in a matter of days
Speed: 8/10 - Some of the older torrents are slow
Community: 7/10 - The forum provides a great environment for a great community, but somehow I feel activity could be a lot better


Commentary:

Blackcats-Games is THE games tracker. With unrivaled content, great speeds and decent pretimes it's one place every dedicated gamer should be in. The support is really good and quite fast, can't say I have had much to report though. The great seed bonus system allows even those with the worst connection speeds to keep a positive ratio. Whatever your drug, PC, XBOX, PS2, Wii or PSP - BCG is the place that has it all.

How to get invited for this?

You don't. In the best-case scenario you're chosen.
