What Trackers Are Worth [With Reviews and Ratings] Part 1

This is a comment I made in the Swebits open thread but I think it applies here as well:"I guess Swebits just went into the state it was until December: it's closed until some places are open for people to sign up.. That was the case until then and I guess that "completely closed" didn't work too well so they returned to this system it had before (and other sites too: Powerbits,Piratebits,Swepiracy,Snowtigers etc.)...."
Therefore I think rarity for all of the above sites shouldn't be above 2.5 unless something is really changed..

swebits owners say "stay level4",
others say "down to level2,cuz they open signups"... :lol:

Lol that's so true :D If someone has a tracker he says it should go up, if he doesn;t he says it should go down.. The fact is that in the end this list serves as a help system or something like that.. Real trade value usually shows in actual offers/trades done.. [example: FTN and FB are supposedly of equal value(4.5) , yet I don;t think anyone would give his ftn for fb... And so many other examples(same level in list): BitmeTV/The Place comparing to IT, HDBits comparing to almost all other 3 level sites etc....]...

Of course some people do take as an 100% guide the list(usually newbies, not their fault though) so if for example tomorrow someone adds a completely unkown to everyone tracker in the list as a 4, I;m pretty sure there will be some people who will trade their other "4s" just because they think it's of same value.. Anyway it's a long discussion and I don't think it will go anywhere :(

Swebits to level 2.Dot.

it was open for about 5mins. I dont think that justifies a drop of 2 levels. Maybe put it down to 3/3.5 but definitely not 2, unless it opens again for a longer period

It doesn't drop 2 entire levels just with a small signup where almost noone registered. I agree that it can be down but not level 2.. maybe 3,5 if there is not other signup ;)


edit : agreed with you ptp5352

It's time to realize that there's still open signups. Accounts are pruned and new accounts can be created. Just like TorrentBytes, and it's at level 2.5. When tracker is full, it doesn't mean that it's closed for signups.

Agreed

It's not closed Cindez, it opens from time to time just as the other sites on the comment i made (the one you quoted...)... ;)

sure swebits should stay level 4 >>>
Because it's just opened for signups less than 1 hour ... and less than 100 user registered
:D:D:D:D:D
