What do you know about FTN and what makes you think it'd be a good tracker for you to be on?

Indeed, I use PTM much more than FTN.

Re: [req] ftn

Am I really alone in thinking that PTM, really isn't that great of a site?

The promise of a no ratio site with a large amount of peers seems great, but I always seem to get the most paltry of DL speeds compared to other no ratio sites. It almost seems as if everyone there is limiting their UL or something.

:dabs: Don't see the appeal.

I'm just guessing here, but your DL speed must be great, right?

You must be downloading older or rare stuff. As you know, usenet is better for that, if it is available there of course.

Newer stuff downloads reasonably fast, though not blazing fast like SCC or something.

I never mind because it is rare that I watch the movie that week, let alone waiting for it to download to watch. And I get to hit ratio before I download.

Not particularly, I'm on an 8/1 cable line, ~1MBps DL speeds. I can always max this consistently at many 0day sites but never even close to that at PTM. I mostly get around 1/2 to 1/4 of my DL pipe at PTM, even on 0day torrents that just came out. Maybe if I'm looking for some massive HD release that I don't want to ruin my ratio PTM could be great, but other than that I tend to steer away from it.

Uhm, that's 8 times my speed. I'd say that'sabove average. ;)

Eh, always seems small compared to all the people who flash their epeens on "What's your internet connection" threads.

Re: [req] ftn

:idunno: I max out my dl speed on almost every tracker..and ptm is one of the few where I max out my ul speed. So it is quite possible rart that I was in your peers :P

yes considerably newer then GFT but older then STN and PIN, no its not that rare you can easily find PTM invites distributed through GAs arround. but it is a very good ratio free tracker that I personally like after GFT.

STN = StoreThe.NET. A failed tracker that's now defunct. You can find more info about them (and their forced donation scheme) if you do a search.
PiN = PackMe.In. A ratio-free pack-exclusive tracker.

Did I contradict myself? :unsure: I like MCFace but that doesn't mean I was convinced the tracker would stay up and running. Specially not after the sponsors themselves started thinking the opposite of that.
