Level, rarity, whatever you want to call it.
If you think my post is flawed, I would be more then happy to hear what you have to say...
Cause posting "just posting to say lol to your post" makes for so much discussion:rolleyes:
i vote for cinematik (yaa I like old ones:) )
Ptn ftw
ptp is a really good movie tracker.
PTP is my favorite now. Great speeds, awesome selection and nice layout.
I hate posting seriously here, but I will for a moment. PtN is really not hard to join at all anymore. We open up the external application all the time and get alot of members who aren't in all the "l337" sites too. All you have to do is demonstrate a basic understanding of how to behave and actually use the trackers you are a member of.
Lets be frank here, small user base does not = rare, high level, or hard to get into. Just that we don't care about having 10,000 seedboxes. We care about a low pressure environment to have fun and torrent at the same time.
I will grant you that content wise we are not at the top of the pile, but we aren't trying to be. Pretimes mean dick to me and the same most surely goes for a good portion of our active userbase.
The problem with ALL threads like this, is that they are all explicitly subjective. It asks for an opinion, yours as valid as anyone elses, so knocking other peoples answers to a thread question like this is a bit self-centered imho(no offense, but I call them as I see them) and to classify anyone who says my site as a level seeker only serves to demonstrate that you think your opinion is the only one that counts.
As a side note, alot of the folks posting that they prefer PtN are in fact active in the community there so they, by your own nebulous standard, are entitled to say as much. ;)
I joined PtN a while ago and have never had a need for any other movie trackers. So i guess PtN is my favorite by default.
cheers
Contentwise, Goem and KG are the best. And there's always Demonoid.
Thank you for your opinion, it's better than an "i post just to lol at ur post, lol" ;)
I realize that if anyone really was set out on getting PtN, and they were a decent torrenter with a good grasp of how to be a good user and fill out the application form, they should be able to make it. The problem is that for the majority of torrenters, the app form seems too daunting and scary, and most collectors probably wouldn't even be able to supply adequate answers anyway and probably got rejected. As with any tracker though, seeing this kind of daunting task promotes one idea (even if its not entirely true): rarity.
And as with any other tracker, this turns into a never ending cycle of massive hyping for the tracker. People start to believe (just like for ukt or fsc or ftwr, which really don't want/need new members) that the sites are amazing and the holy grail of torrenting. People gravitate towards threads like these or "top 10 trackers" threads and start posting long lists of trackers they "like", which end up being a congolmerate of rare trackers they've never been on, just to suck up to the tracker. And then they label it such as PT* or P*N, which honestly in my opinion just exemplifies how they think this is a l33t and secretive tracker. Sure, you don't want your full name revealed but do they really think the tracker is so l33t people wont even know the initials?
I don't mean to insult anyone, I just feel like a lot of the posts earlier from less active members smelt of collecting and rarity without most of the people realizing what PtN really offers (although I can very likely be wrong, I'm sure the vast majority of the people actually in your tracker love the community, or else they wouldn't have filled out such a massive app ;)).
And as a side note, I don't care at all what you call me, self centered or whatever, as long as you explain why you think so ;)
