Awesome idea. People might say that BitMe already provides stuff you may offer, but I think a tracker like this is needed.
Is the tracker going to have all sorts of DIY content (Make magazine, etc.)?
nice idea , i dont see myself as a member there but good luck !
for this staff i use mostly youtube
yes it will include cook book rips home made recipes, home improvement dvds cook tv all media for all cooking and home improvement (TV,MAGAZINES,AUDIO,DVD,EBOOK ETC )
Well I'm sure some people here are able to provide content for the tracker. :D A site like you're proposing has a lot of potential... it could showcase projects by the members and stuff like that.
If you need any help with graphics or CSS don't hesitate PM me.
a tracker dedicated to cooking ? lol.. i'd say good old cooking books would serve the purpose.
good luck anyway..
stellar ive been looking for CSS And GFX person all day :L ill pm you now.
Stellar it wont let me pm you...
Ah yeah you haven't been a member long enough to PM. I've got some contact info in my profile (biography section), so use that.
I'll respond in some hours as I have to attend to some business.
contacted thanks. has anyone got ideas for this tracker? any feedback would be great ill release site link in about a week and setup beta testers.
umm...you sound like you are starting a tracker for stay-at-home republican housewives...IMO i.eQuote:

Am tolerant of differences,and like they say hate the act but not the person.I wish you and all those with your preference the best.I hope that all these people encouraging you will actually be joining.
I can provide a recipe on how to cook steam just to start you off if you want :P

I think you can succeed if you put enough effort into it.
Create a ripping groups. One that will be ripping TV show episodes regarding home improvement/cooking and second that will be scanning exclusive recipe books this way you will have exclusive content on your website. Do not rely on already existing stuff as it will make your tracker merely noticeable.
Excellent idea - specially in a world populated by so many general.0day trackers. Once you launch the site let us know if you want us to publish an article on our blog.
Good luck with this, and remember that you will most likely have to pay for the costs every single month, and won't be able to rely on members to do that, especially upon startup. Could be a big investment on your part with no monetary returns or even enough donations to break even ever. Although you've probably already planned this out seeing as you've started to code it.
Niche Trackers FTW!
as TSOL just said, be prepared to pay and look after the finances of your tracker for at least a few months.There are so many new trackers opening up everyday, but you could try and have an edge over them by getting some exclusive content. In all probability, that should be enough to attract prospective members who may later choose to support your tracker as well.
Moreover, presence of 50 odd torrents on a newly opened tracker definitely increases its chances of meeting an untimely demise.I would suggest you to start looking for passionate and dedicated uploaders to help you with the content before you open up to BT users.
All the best in this endeavor of yours.
seriously, who the hell would be interested in a cooking tracker ?
did you ever think about what fringe of the population were actually using private trackers ?
be realistic...
I like the idea of the home improvement.
Haha yeah that's what I thought, and was why I was saying he might not ever break even on the monthly billsQuote:

I think if he expands the tracker categories to include stuff you see in MAKE magazine, etc. it could work out quite well. Not just a cooking tracker, but an all-encompassing DIY tracker. Electronics stuff, wood-working, and things like that.
Yeah, that could work out very well. Towards the end, its just about improvisation and adding categories (With Content ofc) which are almost non existent at other places.Quote:

But nerds can't cook for shit, that's the problem. If that's his mission however, to teach bittorrent nerds how to cook, more power to him.
Good luck with the site.
most of this content is free on the net , by google/youtube or others site , thats why i dont see the good in opening a tracker like that .
Me...:PQuote:

at least, he can rely on a good future member :yup:Quote:

Nice idea mate.
Good luck.
Thankyou everyone for a mainly good response. If people are going to post things negatively about nerds and not queers dont. Stop trolling ffs. I can take critisicm but make it constructive.
actually, that was constructive criticism with a bit of humour.Quote:

Yeah because "torrenters" would rather sign up at a new 0day tracker with 500 members just for the leetness of it.
Sorry the off topic OP, good luck.
Ah, and I would sign up BTW.
How was that constructive? You could of stated some ideas etc..Quote:

weve got a week its 5 am here i stay awake for quite awhile so im sure i could code something in.
Im open to people constucting a catogorie list here.. Post all the catogories you want for the tracker and they will be noted...

Rehab section for anorexics and bingers.
You are bound to have lots of gay members,so you might wanna have a place where they can exchange info on gay bars and gay sites.
But honestly man why would you start a cooking tracker and yet we told you we wanted one for music videos,that's what i have a problem with,did you even read you earlier thread.you obviously had made up your mind on everything hadn't ya?
342 reads on a supposedly new tracker thats meant to fill a gap should tell you you are headed the wrong way man(soz if u r a chic)
if this is the new way of getting laid then my apologies.i also got a thing for milfs ;)
WTF? Since when are DIY and cooking considered particularly gay activities :frusty:
open it a whole month and then, close the registrations and the invite system: i'm pretty sure many people will discover a passion for cooking like they did with magic stuff when AOM has started to become rare :happy:
why do you think so?Quote:
