there's nothin at hpj.
whats the url of it?
Oh, you mean the WDMA resurrection? Heh, good luck getting in there. Maybe even harder than UK-T? (If it exists)
dudes, who will boder to get an acc there while there is almost no torrents at all.
You're in Hpj? Can you tell us more about it? (Number of torrents, seeds, leechers, what kinds of torrents, community, other features, etc.)
URL or full name please.
hpj.cc, or something like that. It comes off like an image hosting site but supposedly isn't really.
can someone tell us more about hpj
From what I can gather from various sources, hpj is the resurrection of wdma. Wdma is the tracker offshoot of the somethingawful forums. Somethingawful used to have links to torrents for their users, but they didn't want it associated with them anymore, so they opened up a tracker called WDMA, "Where da moviez at", or "Window and Door Manufacturers Association" to the rest of the world. They closed signups soon after opening and bloomed into a great tracker. However, they were supposedly outed by one of their sysops who got cold feet after a couple months to the FBI, and they completely shutdown after their servers were seized. The sysop/admin/whatever adamantly denied squealing. Now, hpj is supposed to be the reopening of Wdma, supposedly, but it's also supposed to be not a very good tracker. There's a forum about hpj and whole reopening thing ... but I can't remember it.
wow
thanks
it will be nice to have url or screenshot
Hpj's url is hpj.cc. Don't have screenshot because I'm not in it. I just got all this info from google and whatnot.
thanks for the info, now this will interesting people will start looking for account here.
You're welcome. Wdma's been talked about here before, just not too much. Hey, if you get it, PM me screenshots. ;)
if i am lucky to get account there :lol:
yeah it's the resurrection of wdma. that's what i was told. if no one mentions the tracker here, im pretty sure it's much more rare than sct or ukt
Yeah I actually know of someone who has membership there. It is NOT a bad tracker. It is the fastest tracker that I know of for, at the least, TV shows. The pre-times and initial download speeds there are ridiculous. My friend is able to get a tv release within several minutes of it listing on a release/cap-listing site because he downloads at 2+MB/s... As for other content, I'm not sure as I don't go snooping at my friend's computer XD... And of course, it's impossible to get in.
i bet no one here at fst has an account
Yeah I wouldn't be surprised... my friend never uses any other tracker for anything...Quote:

i'm sure they have to open signups or have invites at least once. otherwise, the userbase will eventually dwindle down to too few. im sure people get their accounts disabled every now and then
Try to obtain more information and possibly some screenshots of the tracker. It shouldn't be too hard, your source is your friend after all.Quote:

I'll also ask how they keep up their userbase if it's so closed...Quote:

I think you guys are overhyping this. You're thinking it's good based on the word of some guy with a 2mbit connection getting some tv shows fast? You'd have trouble distinguishing ScT from mininova on a 2mbit sometimes.
Im sure they opened signups (probably emails all the goons) a while back and if they accept, they got in. then whey closed forever. Theres no better way to keep a tracker secret than by closing it forever and therefore making account trading almost nonexistant.
Tbh, also seems like a pretty good way to kill a tracker. They must have some way of refreshing membership, any site would go dormant if it remained closed forever. Have you checked out the rate at which people are disabled for ratio and inactivity on all trackers? It's several per day, on good days. If they are truly permanently closed, they can't be very good, by definition.Quote:

that was posted a while ago, and im sure they're probably at a different url now, or maybe it doesnt even matter becasue thats not really the site, its just the registration link.Quote:
HPJ.CC can fuck off now. Your secret is out - HPJ.CC is the SA linked piracy forum which requires SA membership profile links. Ever want to find out, pull some random profiles look for random numbers in there. I'm no longer a goon after today. I won't say who I am but SA can fuck off. They're insane and they talk out both sides of their mouths.
Whatever though, its just a bittorent forum and the same exact stuff comes out everywhere else. its all the same.
Nice find. Seems like they sell access to new members. Knew they were getting fresh blood somehow.Quote:
