Maybe level 3 for tranceroute because as I can remember, they had open signups about 1 month back.
I might be blind or something but what's the 1-5 scale of speed based on? I know everyone has a different net connection so someone who reviews a tracker with a speed rating of 3 might actually be a 5 for someone else.
Should there be a standard for speed ratings?
Average popular new release file speed (i.e. new episode of Lost):
[1] <20kb/s
[2] 20 - 100kb/s
[3] 100 - 500kb/s
[4] 500 - 1500kb/s
[5] >1500kb/s
What's everyone think? From what I've read (since I don't have it), ScT has the best down speeds, so how's it rate on this scale (a [6]? :P).
Does somebody knows anything about the fiber club ? Can someone make a review ? Thx
what is its url?
I'd say your speed rating scale is pretty good :). That's what I tend to interpret the speed ratings as...Quote:

But I also tend to think of the Speed rating as speed across all torrents, and not just the newest ones. I mean, if you look at sites like FTN, their new ones get seeded a lot and its very fast, but because of their small user base, most of the older torrents don't get seeded much at all and you get really slow speeds on them. On the other hand, TL has quite a lot of well seeded old torrents.
Hpj Level 6 :L
Thx Shalafi,slau,Omarino for the reviews

REVIEWERS
First of all, it's nice to see more reviews being posted. Great job guys!
A suggest on the reviews - some of the trackers have a bonus system (aka karma points) which rewards upload credit for extended seeding. It would be nice to know whether a tracker employs such a system, and how "generous" the system is. For example, bit-hdtv will allow more points to be added for up to 15 torrents, but x264 doesn't seem to care how many torrents you're seeding. (Please correct me if I'm wrong.)
For people that have lame upload speeds, the bonus system is a lifesaver. ;)
Please keep this in mind when editing existing reviews or adding new ones.
I believe that torrentbytes is underestimated. The tracker says clear that is a 0-day scene tracker. Nothing more! So a 4 or 4.5 for content would be better.Quote:

Pre times 4/5 is fair :)
The confirmation during sign up is real pain in the ass :lol:
Good reviews Shalafi. Keep up the good work :)
am not gonna talk abt rarity..but shouldnt TT's content increase a bit..it;s more than 3.5 ..every 1 say its the best tracker for that taste!
Good point about the speed of old files. So how about this:Quote:

-0.5 if speeds are not so great on older files. The negative score is small since most of the faster trackers are 0day trackers and new files are the priority for most grabs.
So based on Buggyme's comments and current user review speed ratings,
FTN's speed: 5.0 - 0.5 = 4.5
TL's speed: 4.5 - 0.0 = 4.5
/edited: fixed calculations. I once told a lecturer "I don't do no maths" and then realised I actually said it out loud.... lol.
lol, 4.5 - 0.5 = 4.5 :P
I'm starting to think that this speed scaling thing is a bad idea - it overcomplicates things.
Like, when you say "new release file speed" - do you mean when the file is released? or like 15-30 minutes after?
I think that EXigo should be back by 0.5
i think this i fair enough for it, it is just a music tracker.
we talking about rarity guys.
hey Patriot, you forgot the learnbits review :D
where does boxtorrent stands
Lets make this simple:Quote:

E***o is level 4.5 and has something like 1200 users, none of them have invites and only some can REQUEST them AND the requirements for getting one increased lately (everybody seems to have missed that :rolleyes:), and you're trying to decrease its rarity level :wacko:
C'mon, I want it too, but that's not fair at all.
We could also arrange that ScT drops by -3 so we all get them, and then put it back in the throne :noes:
TranceRoute should up for lvl 3.5 , it had a great speed and rare too

But you still have to be exalted user for buying invites
15 weeks is a long time and after that you have to have points to buy them ..Swedvdr should definatly go up..
thats good support.
now i do think it will go.
but what abt FB
what is req to be PU in FB?
i dont know bcs
but u need to request one .u get one only once and after that requestQuote:
Ollut jäsenenä vähintään 4 viikkoa, uppinut vähintään 25gb, ja ratio vähintään 1.00.
Ylennys on automaattinen, kun nämä vaatimukset on saavutettu. Ota huomioon, että sinut alennetaan automaattisesti
jos ratiosi tipahtaa alle 0.85
