Hi. Everyone. I m a new bie to this forum:) Well, i had been actively seeking for good torrent websites.. but i m not sure which ones would be the better ones.. All the files i wanted are largely in lack of seeders..:( is there any great bit torrents websites u experts would recommend to us? By the way, as i m quite new to bit torrents, i wonder what does the term " leechers" mean? Thanks alot!!:lol:

The number of seeders are the people who have complete copies of the files and are uploading to those that are still downloading.

Those downloading are the 'leechers'.

There is a thread with lots of BitTorrent sites posted on it in the BitTorrent Section. (http://www.filesharingtalk.com/vb3/forumdisplay.php?f=43) Have a look to see which sites you fancy.

To start you off, torrentspy.com is a good one to start at - welcome to the site :)

Private tracker.. U mean those which requires u to pay a fee? Or any trackers which need a sets of troublesome rules to follow with?

A private tracker is a site that you sign up with.For free 99% of the time.
Yes there are rules but its not hard to follow.Just dont be a super leech or share an account.
There better because people share (seed) more and there are quality releases by torrent groups.

Hmm..... Guess those trackers which i had been checking on are all private trackers then... So if there's private tracker, then is there anything such as a public tracker?:P Wonder if the paid torrent trackers are good ones, as they need seeders too so that ppl can download the files..

In my humblest of opinions http://www.newnova.org/list_news.html is the best public tracker.


It is the late Supernova by another name.

learn if exists, and what plugin to download for your favourite BT client. then install it.

add RSS feeds from torrents sites. the ones i have, are....
http://thepiratebay.org/rss.php?cat=0
http://www.mininova.org/rss.xml?cat=5&num=50
http://www.torrentspy.com/rss.asp


then just put the title of what you want into the filter and leave stuff running the night your program will be released :smilie4:



also check you have a default download directory and stuff :dabs:
