The ratio would keep you honest , that's the whole point . Most noobie friend's I give an invite to always share two to one on the public trackers . Thats all they know .

First thing they do is give a donation upon joining , which I frown upon but their usually older and have the money .

The only time I've used a public tracker was to download GTA4 PC

. Other than that the speeds and fakes keep me away from using it.

Public trackers are open for everyone, they don't judge upon you and won't shut you off.

Unfortunately they are full of spybots, leechers and crooks

Yep but places like Piratebay or H33t have their place too , if looking for rare programs or old movies .

exactly, how many times did i run over to tpb to get that movie or cd that i cant find anywhere else.

In all honesty i do not know what i would do without TPB, it has provided me with countless content over time that i was unable to find
elsewhere. Sure the speed may suck sometimes but at least i was able to acquire what i needed.

Public for people that are just starting on the torrent world on don't know much about the web, or really don't need anything better...

Private are for people like us that have been in the "scene" for some time, have the resources, people that search and want to know more...
