Not sure I'm comfortable with the term "king" There is no single best tracker. They are all good for different things. Sure SCT was one of my favs in fact it was my homepage. FTN, FSC and TL are all notable as well. Shit another fav of mine is one of my first private trackers Supertorrents. They were in the Pre races a while back that weren't supposed to exist :P
Humility isn't a word that's in your vocabulary is it?Quote:

Please do not say speed because as soon as it moves beyond the download capability of the person at the center of the bell it's increasingly redundant .
Or that ridiculous pretime bollocks for that matter .
Or content because they weren't first or even second in that regard.
Or the community because good or bad - lie if you want, but few of you were there for that .
I think you proclaim it king because since you were a part of it it massages your egos to name it so.
Btw ( qualifying my statement as usual ) this is not an attack on ScT which was obviously a very fine tracker which many people would rightly consider the best they ever belonged to , rather I'm ranting because sometimes I have a hard time stomaching how insipid some individuals viewpoints seem to be .
i love couple sites - FTN/SCC/GFT and now trying PT.
SCC and RevTT...
However, I've never seen FTN... maybe it has 20000 users, and all of them have seedboxes... I don't know.
you can download your shit from any tracker
why do you need a king tracker
There's no ratio...those seedboxes mean nothing.Quote:

Stalin.
SCC and TL, just like before SCT went under. Only its "legend" could make it appear better than those two trackers.
Thanks for the laugh. :noes:Quote:

I still use TPBhttp://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/../.....lies/laugh.gif
I think the candidates with real chances are: SCC and GFT.Quote:

lol but w00t assured us all 156 uploaders have axx!
ftn is tainted because of the staff drama. They'll never be king since that douche likes to run his mouth so much
haha!Quote:

Scc..
IPTorrents is the King :)
I agree with IdolEyes - not sure what this King malarkey is but I guess this thread is to comfort egos. I can say on personal experience with most of the trackers mentioned here that TL is the easiest to get in, seed on and gets a wide array of content quickly (pre-times are baloney - 6 mins vs 16 is no difference unless you're a racer or uploader on several sites and use these as your source). That said the DCMA notices one can get make using them an issue!
For me the best part of ScT were the competitions eg LoGD, cake baking etc but other sites do these kind of things too. The free packs were good but other sites have 'em like S*C F*N TB etc. Retention was poor on many though esp on DVDs and it was hard to seed on w/o a box (much like S*C) which is why the 3, 5 and 7-day rules came in - to help the poor retention even on the free packs.
There is no king, but it was a good old tracker. Losing it might be a major issue to the folks who used it as their sole tracker, but a combination of 1-3 trackers fills the void (if you have a void) if you know where to look.
If it was a TL-exclusive release, then they should have respected the uploader's wishes.Quote:

SCC all the way

I have most deff noticed an increase in their swarm sizes...;)
I saw that on the STN forums first. ;)
That's cause I edited it after posting the OP. :)Quote:
