    One of my long-time real-life friends mentioned receiving a DMCA notice recently. I promised him an invite to IPt, but then found out they have recently taken away all of the invites. This leaves me kinda high-and-dry with my promise to help him out.

    I've got invites to TL, but don't consider it to be "safe" anymore after receiving my own DMCA notice while seeding a torrent on there.

    My ratio has slipped below 1.0 on RevTT, so my invites don't work there. Seeding back has not been as easy as it once was. I'm not a big fan of pay-to-leech. I don't want to set my froend up with the expectation that he would have to, either.

    TorrentBytes doesn't do invites, although I remember them opening up A LOT of user spaces there recently- that one may work (thinking out loud).


    Anyway, no other ones come to mind right now, but essentially, I am looking for a way for my friend to be "safe" while torrenting some general files. I don't expect any trouble with the account, nor any problems with him maintaining a ratio.

    Any help/ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!


    EDIT- I should also add that an all-English forum would be preferred for him.

    So you're just trying to figure out which site to invite him to? Does this mean he's looking for access to an all around tracker, or is he in for just TV/movies primarily?

    So far, he's only used public trackers (he was on Demonoid when he got the DMCA notice for "Lorax"), and wasn't even sure what the distinction was for a "private tracker".

    I know he likes movies. A reliable source for software wouldn't hurt, either. I think a good, easy-to-seed genera/0-day site would serve him quite nicely.

    Note to those generous in helping/making suggestions: I will be away from my computer for the next few hours. Please don't take my absence as a sign of anything other than being away. Thanks.

    You're on FSC right? Why don't you make an app for him there. It's a general 0-day tracker with some nice packs.
    Speeds might not max out your connection at all times, but when talking about 'safety', you cannot go wrong with FSC.
    Can you feel the LOVE

    ftn is safer than a lot of other trackers too,and better than fsc content wise,your friend could just use torrentleech for older things and ftn for newer releases!!

    for a casual user with no specifically formed interest i would recommend sites like Digitalhive and Filelist.ro and IPT(sad they disabled invites)
    despite having a huge userbase on FLRO i've never heard of anyone getting the DMCA mail in their mailboxes
    maybe that has to do with the site being offshore

    Throw in an app for him at FSC, practically ratio-free and they could seriously use the downloaders lol

    Not to mention he's pretty much never getting a DMCA from there

    Another good one is acid lounge. I have invites there if you say knows a bit about torrenting. I have several revtt too if you want to get him in there.
