Thx to the original poster : BiGBaDBoY :)

What.cd doesn't ban any country from the site. Few countries are banned from the interview channel, but they can get in by getting invite through a friend.

do the sites ban by the ip you use on the website, or by the ip you use to connect to the tracker?

wondering about this because i'm from israel but i use a (french) seedbox, would i be able to use the sites who banned israel if i only login to the website from an israeli ip?

Via the IP you use to access the frontend. But you could log in to the tracker through your seedbox if you have RDP access.

torrentbytes is listed twice, fix that :P

SCC has also banned INDIA but I wont use these words for them Because they have a good staff and their attitude says all..

Banned countries has nothing to do with "racism" (at least I think)...

I'm brazilian and I have to admit that many (maybe the majority of) brazilians don't know how to use torrents. They normally cheat and cheat a lot! That's why some trackers banned Brazil from their lists...

I even had an account parked and disabled for almost 2 years or so... It was not my fault, but sometimes we pay for other's mistakes :huh:

You're saying you wouldn't be able to change your ip? Or cover/tunnel/whatever it?
Sometimes google helps.
Good luck

From their invite channel, yes. But as far as I know What.cd's tracker doesn't ban any countries. You can still get in if a friend invites you.

India is not banned at What.cd and bro if u have any issues,leave the tracker... that's what i do :)

Agreed, it's abusive and childish to consider trackers "racist" because they don't want a certain country to join. Live with it, it's your problem, not theirs.

You can add Revett on your list as well

There are some exceptions to who qualifies for this. As of our Goodwill Weekend many of you may have heard we blocked certain countries from signup to Revolutiontt. This decision wasn't made lightly, since opening the site so many years ago we've had several geographic locations that continue to be a issue for us. Not all but most users from these areas are repeatedly breaking site rules and take up a huge amount of staff time to respond to and take appropriate action. As a result membership has been closed to the following countries and current users from these regions are not eligible for invites.

Brazil
Egypt
India
Israel
Pakistan
Portugal
Romania
Saudi Arabia
Turkey

All current user from these region can rest assured your continued use of the site will not be blocked. From this point on however no new members from these countries will be allowed. Failure to comply with this will result is the loss of both accounts.

why should everyone be affected when some idiots try to brake the rules on trackers. if one person is bad all persons are bad? that's the idea? but it's ilogical

What a great idea! Although I highly doubt that I won't have to worry about this since I'm in the USA!

Evidently the amount of bad users coming from the United States isn't high enough for any tracker to ban that country. :yup:

Iam on SCC, bitmetv and bcg for like 2 years, and iam from brazil, Am I lucky?

yes, we have opened up as you know, and a LOT of new accounts are cheating, and a LOT of those accounts are from Brazil and Romania.

So we have banned them from signing up, along with Egypt/Israel as well.

thing is we havnt even looked for the good cheaters yet, these are the ones that are easy to catch, we alo havent even started looking at the dupes either, so god knows what we will find when we go down that route in the next couple of days.

Well, I'm glad I found this thread as the info in the first post certainly was helpful just now....

If you spot a mistake or missing country, please let me know.

"What.cd (invites)" means they're banned from the IRC interview.

Thanks for the updated awesome list! The only few mistakes I saw were that I don't believe scenesound is around anymore and I think maybe one or two of the sites have changed their name.

I heard things about SS possibly returning, but they've yet to do so, so I'll just remove it from the list. The one or two sites you mention could be RandomBytes and Ozone-T, both of which appear to have died to me after doing a quick search. I've removed those two as well. Thanks for the information, of course. :)

thanks for the list! its very useful! :D

Sheesh, cut it out with the thanks spam already.

Many trackers have banned Israel
