For me personally, I would take speed first, then pre times. So what so special about FTN? No ratio crap probably?

I guess its all about ranking level
community
why do you want to know? its none of your business
because FTN is an awesome community-i think its the best
They are both great!
Sct is for me enough.
I cant speak for others but I want it for the strong community and excellent staff. I like ScT but it cant compete with FTN in those two things.
ScT is better than FTN in everything and by everything i mean:
Speed
Pre-Times
Community
Staff (some... like lush, deviant and djgrrr)
Content
Features
mature staff , better community !
and no Eezee
They are both good and I don't think they should be compared. It always ends up fighting and calling names. I like sct. I bet I would like ftn as well, the design is hot you gotta admit, I haven't gotten any closer look :|.

Why does Staff fight with each other in the main IRC Channel, zephyr is a great guy, but still immature to fight infront of the entire IRC Channel. What about Silenced and Silver in main IRC? and dont get me started about the community, lot of great users there, but alot of users have no respect for each other at all. In IRC and the forums and just basic backstabbing and shit talking. Get you facts straight m8 ;)
and about Eezee your right, not a friendly person, but still better than the majority of Staff on FTN.
also i have to include that Zlo is the best Staffer on FTN, most mature, most friendly, most inactive and my favourite ftn staff :P
LOL, WOW mad politics.....lol
Secret alien place and curiosity to visit there.
Find the actual speed with FTN and then compare with SCT, this is the reason they want to be a part of this.
Curiosity make people to go to space and do expedition like Astronauts.

ScT is simply a faster site, for every 1 server at FTN there are about 60-70 at ScT.
FTN Has great speeds as well for the 'seedbox' users but not for the home users
I think that SCT's pretimes are better 2.
Cuz I'm using RSS and I included both of links but usualy it downloads from SCT .
At least for my things .
Sct staff is just the worse there is! Don't have ftn, but it can only be better!
ScT might have speeds and packs, but FTN has a better community, some really cool packs, everyone there is wonderful, and no ratio.
They are very similar, but different enough so that you aren't nuts for wanting both.
SCT rocks man FTN have just level
If FTN dont have level no people can stay in there forums
there are many tracker are batter the FTN like
NB, CZONE, Iplay, TL, They have speed and much batter content then FTN
If u want to time pass(time wast) chat with some people and bla bla bla !
then join FTN
Because many under level tracker are much batter then FTN
So dont go with high level keep different trackers
some months ago sct is on top level and now its easily available with some 30$
i recommended this tracker that i think so and may be easy to get this tracker
This are most complete tracker in there filed
HDBITS
BITME
BITMETV
TL, SCT
OINK
DEMONOID
hahahaha :lol: great comparisonQuote:

Backstabbing and shit talking? You must be idling in the wrong channel.
They are both great,top Torrent Sites.Top of teh bt pyramid,along with a few others..
So from someone who knows and has both... Some should stop posting and putting them against each other.. and talking shit about teh staff for both sites..(Especially when they have no knowledge or believing some of the shite that is posted here sometimes :whistling) There is no perfection in human beings and staff put up with alot of crap as well.They do this for free.As for Eezee,he is a good guy ,who wubs ScT and likes to troll a little with some people.:P But he has been there for ScT 110%,even before he was staff .
It is a shame so many will or have a distorted perception of different Sites...Lets just fight together against teh system instead.Ahhh I forgot! Thats not what these threads are about....
Obviously because speed isn't everything.
LOL It is 4 meeeeeee!
cnn and bbc have faster pretimes topic end:P

FTN from 5 300 users it had 12 000 - 15 000 pears. Now that it removed ratio it has 20 000 peers. So it doesn't matter if you say FTN is better or smth, the users don't agree aparently. Even with the retarded ideea of messing the ratio principle , users still don't use FTN. If ScT removed ratio's it most likely hit over 150 000 peers.Quote:

1. sct (absolutely fast and relieable. great speed)
2. oink (enormous browsing speed for such a huge tracker)
3. ftn (it always takes a while to load the startpage)
4. hd-bits (lots of pics, a little slower)
6. revtt (sometimes it sucks)
7. scc
8. tl (get stuck sometimes)
9. dvdclub (barely legal)
10. demonoid (fucking slow)
.
.
.
and hundrets of sites, that are nearly unbrowsable e.g. kg
some people often don't consider this criteria before they want a site.
there are of course other good ones like tt etc. etc.
might be helpful.
That's sooooooo true Polarbear........I hate that shit!
FTN is better just for the users that like to kiss staff's ass because they are active here. If Brandon wouldn't have given invites or been active here i am preety sure the number of FTN suporters would have been far smaller. The numbers say everything, 100 000 + vs. 15 000/20 000( 20k just because they removed ratio, usual number is max 15k). If FTN was better ,the numbers would be different , no? And don't mix "why FTN is better for ME with the FACTS( which are ScT is a better tracker , no matter the preference)
directed @ thor: With <7000 users, i think he should answer the pms in irc and on site. and who was silenced on SceneNetwork, cause i dont think he was staff, and don't get smart or talk rude to me, i wont take that shit from anyone. Rest of those question were rhetorical, so no answer was needed, ive been at FTN longer then most of the staff, you have no idea what goes on at FTN, just cause i signed up at FST a short while ago, doesn't mean i don't know what im talking about, keep that in mind next time.

I meant Silver was staff at SceneNetwork.
Maybe I don't know what goes on behind FT.N, but I've known most of the staff since ByteEm/Exabits, and they're not immature backstabbers at all.
It seems like Brandon is a BIG TEASE.....only 4 those who didn't get a response from him when him specifically ask 4 emails.....and no answer back!
It's a personal preference choice in the end, nothing more, nothing less.
It's Barcelona or Real Madrid, it's Man Utd or Liverpool, it's AC or Inter, it's just a choice we make as we go along, let's not start site wars ok? It really is childish & immature and has been done to death by better posters in the past.
All trackers have their supporters & detractors, let's not add to the rubbish being spouted.
Chill out, open a beer & get drunk and move on.
and a great topic for amusing flamwars :DQuote:
