well, who give a s*** about this, it's their own tracker so they can do whatever then want, besides i never dl samples, it's just a waste of time/ bandwith ect.
still one of the best easy trackers to get in.
A bad sign maybe...
Please give a definite example of the tampering of NFOs, please? Any hard proof? (Compare the scene and RTT's side by side, please)
Does it matter that much? I prefer the torrent to have a sample but it really doesnt make me any difference. As far as nfos go, i dont see why they would alter them. And as long as they dont touch the actual files (they have no reason to) it's fine by me.
Yeah, I suppose I am a release nut... I store great value in the fact that a release from a group vil be completely identical whereever you come across it. I keep all my stuff in the original release form, and have a fluid store of old and new stuff of about 1 TB (some old goes, some new comes in). Whenever I want to use something i unRAR it off the drive, then delete the unRARed file(s) when I am through.
For me this has several advantages:
1. It's much easier to keep on seeding (and seeding and seeding...) when the torrent is the stuff that I actually want to keep (a RARed release).
2. Whenever I want to share or upload something I know it is intact and up to every standard, not infected by virus etc.
3. Frequently I help out seeding stuff on different trackers, this would hardly be possible if releases were disrespected on trackers and everyone had a different packet.
The point is conceeded that I don't have to hang out there if I don't like it, and if this is intentional policy I wont.
For me, however, it is legitimate to say that in my view RTT does not fill the criteria to call themselves a "scene" tracker. If that was not true, BitMeTV could call themselves a "scene" tracker as well - they just take this thinking one step further and unRAR those pesky archives for everyones convenience, and who cares about the stupid .nfo anyway ;)
Peace out :)
