The whole system is very simple, and proven to work in scenarios other than bittorrent. Instead of punishing bad behavior, reward good behavior.
They will no longer punish users for having a low share ratio, but they give benefits to those who seed.
Reward is many times a better motivator than consequence., and I think it is a refreshing step for the world of private trackers :)
So far it's done wonderful :) I agree the hype isn't something I really appreciate.. But I knew it would be hard for us to avoid a topic such as this being made. It will take time for everyone to fully understand the new system and trust me it's taken me months to fully grab on to the idea myself. We still have lots of neat changes coming so keep an open mind ;)Quote:

Still , all the hype about the FTN gets rid of ratios is wrong. Because it still there... .
I think this all was for the users of FTN to download more .
If you click on Snatched after 400-500 torrents [ out of ~5000 torrents ] , you dont get more than 100 snatches per torrent . [ And you don't have quick DL button ]
You have more than 5 K users which most of them should be good users , and still most of them do not download from FTN.
Kinda sucks .
So good move from your side to increase the number of seeders/leechers with out hanging out tons of invites [ AKA SCT ] . :)
Hope it'll work.
Someone should fill those 700 spots, it could be easily done. :pinch::naughty:Quote:

I hope other trackers bring somthing similar instead of just penalizing people
I have some high level trackers but I am too scared to download anything. Most of the time I just seed there
I dont have FTN and I dont know if I ever will since I dont trade but to the existing users, you guys are lucky as now you can truly enjoy the tracker without worrying too much

What you can do is get a hold of a couple of invites to lower ranked trackers from some of the more active members(The ones that do have axx to the higher ranked sites). Chances are once you can be trusted by these members, most likely they will extend there help to some of the higher ranked sites.
But then again this is coming form a guy who was invited by Brandon himself, so I can be full of shit.
Oh and FTN FTW!
:01:
I gave away my old account because I couldn't receive a good ratio because of my connection and now they do this :( what a shame.. (it wan't a trade and staff know's about it..)
brandon ?? hook us up :D:D:D

But all i see is this could very well end up hurting that site a great deal.
many sites already have something like this. I did this about 4 months ago with 1 user class called Honoured Guests then went good so added it to Super vip class also,. the ratio was setup to ratio of 1.1 on all torrents and or 48 hours seeding, Also stats never counted. But for a hole site to do this well all i can say is good luck with it.
