Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
wow site looks almost like old demonoid..well this icon is little different and with red color :D
-
Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
but is the content as good as demonoid?
-
Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
Don't like their point system. You get charged points each time you download a torrent. Other then that it's almost a perfect replica of Demonoid which makes me wonder if their involved with this site.

Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
i will give it a try.
btw that demon icon looks dead lame get the original demon back
and can u make categories (category and subcategory) the way demonoid had it? they had it the best.
-
Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
Yea the icon is too big as well. You'll dread their point system though. The advantage is that it will boost the forum community. Maybe over time it won't be such a bad thing at all.

Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
True but the big red icon is still ugly. I think their someone how involved though. Even the seed to leech ratio looks healthy.

Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
Looking like is not being like. Demonoid's content was the best ever. Millions of torrents. Thanks for the share, but so far it's a wannabe tracker with 5000 torrents.

Your right:D The new icon won't sway from the site though. I am getting some old chills though. Thats a good thing though.:P
Yea it will need time. Demonoid was around for like 3 or 4 years i think.

And while you may dislike their pts system... I think they just want people to upload torrents to build up their database. They probably will get rid of it once they have alot of torrents available.
Yea i actually retract my earlier statements. I no longer see it as a bad thing. It did take about 20 minutes for me to process that though:)

Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
Hi, im the owner of torrentstorage.com I noticed this board was generating hits to my site, so i decided to check it out and see what was going on over here at filesharingtalking
Nice site by the way Admin
Just figured i would quote a post or two in this thread to fill thinking minds
The site has been up and running for about 100 days. I saw that someone asked that question in this thread somewhere
anyhow here you go

This system was added to cut back on the leechers- Hit and runners as i call them.
Seems to be doing to trick too

Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
i will give it a try
the demon icon looks ugly
-
Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
to be honest the only reason why i joined was because it looked similar to Demonoid and it helps me remember how good Demonoid was :) Hope it gets as good as Demonoid in the future
PS: Fix the damn red demon ..looks terrible to be honest ;)

Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
The demon is ugly, but your right. It needs some improvement but i think it's gonna be a huge tracker in the near future.
-
Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
Has a demonoidish look to it. I think if more ex demonoid members saw this site they would flock to it and eventually bring back the demonoid we all remember just as a different name.
This will be a site I'll keep my eyes on.

Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
I don't see how anybody would say the points system is a bad thing. Unless you have a major fixation on downloading hundreds of torrents daily, you should be fine. You get an amount between 25-75 points PER TORRENT seeded several times a day.

-
Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
Thanks, I'll check it out...
They seem to have a pretty healthy content of PC Games
EDIT: Actually all of their games (PC & Consoles) are mixed together...

Not checked out their system to any greater degree. But pretty much all point systems has the same flaw, it does not benefit those who actually seed.
What happens in a point system is that users will seed 20 or so torrent but cap their upload to 1kB/s, hence they get calculated as seeding without actually doing anything useful.
With a normal rating system, you KNOW (apart from cheating) that a user with a decent ratio has contributed and done something useful. He has at least contributed as much as he has taken.
Hence, a point system is in my opinion a seriously flawed mechanic, which is why most people resent it. It will also attract people with an extremely slow upload, who cannot manage on a normal ratio site which makes it even slower to download. Which is too bad, it looked like the site had some potential.

Re: Need a Demonoid replacement?
I'd like a demonoid replacement.. but I don't really like the looks of this one.
especially with the point system.

Ratio applies as well. If a user was to set a slow upload limit the ratio system would take effect
users that dont maintain a ratio over 0.50 will have their account terminated
It the users account is under 0.50 for more than 5 days the system disables their account.
It wouldn't matter if they had 50000000000 points
With both systems it makes it hard for hit and runnings to stick around.
users must be willing to share or they wont last long
