FTP? I always thought release groups used IRC?
FTP is used to spread releases, whilst IRC is used to chat/communicate. Both can be used to "control" the topsite.Quote:

I suppose the amount of downloads you are able to generate, and you are right, sme kind of secret acknowledgement would get you in
Imagine my surprise when I see a thread I made over 3 years ago still alive.:D
So, did you end up getting into a site?
Nope. :(Quote:

This. A torrent site is only as fast as the racers on the ftp site behind it. That, and the specs and pipeline between all systems involved.Quote:

If you have nothing to offer in terms of the former it's certainly gonna cost you a lot of the latter.....
For anyone debating why you'd want to join a decent "site" you've obviously never been a member of one, its not just the elitist element that makes them better - nor the "I got my warez minutes before you".
Its being a part of something that very few people ever (used to) access.
Yep, there will always be a monetary cost, as there is to anything else in this life. Sysops pay for servers. Suppliers pay for material. Cappers pay for hardware. But in turn, you earn more respect than any racer or racing group, than any coder, than any nfo/ascii/ansii artist or any stealing-xvid encoder.
Think of most sceners as 16 to 30 year olds (there are men and women, boys and girls in the scene believe it or not), middle to upper class, intelligent people and you may understand why the scene exists. Some may have poor social lives (I kinda fall into this category - often bullied for being smart), with little to do outside the home, but lots of spare money and computer skills to rival most ISP employees; a desire to achieve status which may not have been fulfilled in school, is now done so on the internet. The Scene that evolved from the 1990s is the core... it was unavoidable. The P2P scene is where the future is at for most people on the internet. Those worthy will rise above easily.

P2P has made everything too easy, hence the anti-piracy crackdowns we have become accustomed to, people can start a torrent client and be sharing in seconds.
The old days of bbs and a 1200 baud modem required skill, time and patience. When you got some sort of access you cherished it for the work you'd put in. Nowadays you join a relatively good site through the BT invite section and can access everything I can, just a few minutes later.
Actually, competition is growing day be day, no-one wants to stay behind, and in case 0day releases, pre time(s) is he thing which maters most. So.....Quote:

It does seem like a huge commitment.Quote:

DCC is old and in the past, slow, queues still, cluttered irc rooms, spam bots, pointless.
And no, mainly all the pre times come from a few top site ftp's, then echoed down the channels to irc me and you can see.
Scene releases straight to FTP, then leaked to p2p.
Newsgroups have to grab it off there source, do the work they do and then release, which could take 5-10 mins, by the time its online 15 mins maybe, depends, nzbmatrix compete with the torrent sites SOMETIMES. Even if they are a indexing website.
vBooM I do hope you're not in any form of authority because you're clearly ill-informed about how the trickling effect works. There's no way a pre will be raced 5-10 mins after pre. Get better sources.
Last races from two most active fill/req chans:

There are very few manual racers thanks to bots.
nzb is dead, ring your mum.
Old fashioned
^ by the time index sites pick it up its a good 5-10 mins before its in the system, ^ just because its been sourced doesnt mean people can get there hands on it.
maybe you should get your hands on this just released stuff another way, old-school way then.. not via nzbs lolQuote:

then you are good to go
Real Usenet users don't need nzbs :ermm:.Quote:

When you claim one of those sucks, you just prove your ignorance.
i think IRC is same as DC++
if you find good channel like good hub it's great
but :(
the problem is that it's so hard to find good channel/hub :cry: or
any good site about it :wacko:
Torrents = Free signup and downloading.Quote:

Nzb = Pay for suscription
Which wins?
Same Speeds, same files.
Sharing back 1:1 on torrents, so what.
That's where you're wrong. Usenet has stuff BT doesn't, and BT has stuff Usenet doesn't. Also, newsgroups guarantee full speed as long as the file is available, whereas you can't always say that about torrents.Quote:

How can you glory paying to download over nzb?

Enough said.
Erm,
SCC FTN And GFT all have slow torrents. I know from experience. They all have older stuff with 1-2 seeders on it, and guess what? Sometimes their upload speed is cap'd.
I can tell you for sure about these three sites because I'm the last seeder on a couple files, and I can confirm to you I will not max out anyones lines.
Also, with more and more usa isp's putting bandwidth caps in place, it is beneficial to not have to upload everything you download. That means I can get 2x the stuff from newsgroups that I can with torrents per month. All for a measly $10. If you can not afford that to get $1000's of free shit, then you must be like 12.
Each system has its pro's and con's.
Go spout your shit elsewhere.
I can haz topsite now?
Care to explain why nzb posters IP's match rtorrent ips seeding in private trackers then?
This newsgroups vs. torrents 'discussion' is bullshit and not going anywhere. Just use whatever you prefer.
However, I don't understand why you'd need newsgroups in addition to torrents though. To be honest, the bigger problem for me these days is that there's simply too much to download, the space necessary for all the potentially interesting stuff I could but ultimately actually don't download. It's like a freaking candy store, and you've already eaten so much that your stomach hurts.
Or maybe I should just reduce the number of sites I'm on.
Hardly means anything. :unsure:Quote:

You're not supposed to pay for nzb's.

Want to know the best part? NZBIndex aren't indexing all groups.
The only thing you should pay for is your NSP, only a lazy noob would actually pay for nzbs.
How did you work that out?Quote:
