yup
yup
5gb upload credit would be nice.
it would
I think content that is not on the "scene" trackers would be nice..then again this seems like it will be just another scene tracker. I could be wrong![]()
There should be some sort of policy that encourages a sense of community. Every member should be required to upload one of each of the following:
!.favorite music album
2.favorite movie
3. favorite software
This would a much much more true form of interaction between members of the site, rather than separating users into UPLOADERS/DOWNLOADERS or SEEDS/LEECHES.
Thats my two cents
practically every user is an uploader, a downloader, a seeder, and a leecher at one pointOriginally Posted by kooftspc11
It's a bit hard to suggest anything without knowing much about the tracker and its goals, but here it goes. Everything should be taken with a grain of salt, of course, since I'm in the dark about SCPs overall plan of action.
* SCP seems to be focusing on scene releases, but it would be nice to allow regular users to upload stuff, even if it's not in the regular torrent section (something like ST's system of user torrents). There's an official SCP endorsed section for 0-day/0-sec releases, with the attribution of uploader status only to a group of trusted seeders/suppliers. Along that section, an "unofficial", non SCP endorsed section where users can upload whatever they want, provided that the content fits the rules.
* Rare DVDrs: those seem to be well covered by Cinematik, unless, of course, we're talking about older mainstream releases (with older being anything older than a year or two) like some suggested. That would be a very interesting and promising niche to cover, if SCP is trying to become something else than just another 0-day (or for that matter 0-sec) tracker. If older movies are to be allowed, it would be great if that applied not only to DVDrs, but also XviD rips. This would definitely work even if the content allowed is scene-only. I can't remember off the top of my head a tracker going for that route, and it could be interesting, provided there's a nice request system (without voting - people just demonstrate interest, maybe pay with upload credit, to be received by the uploader if he/she provides the content).
* I've read a few suggestions on an e-learning section, and I fully endorse the idea. BitMe is currently number one and probably won't be displaced since that's their specialty, but giving room to that kind of material does not hurt. OPP is a great example of a tracker allowing something else than the content they're primarily focused on, and making it work for everyone.
* In ratio related matters, a bonus system could prove interesting if well implemented. Something along the lines of KGs approach would be desirable if SCP ends up allowing user torrents in a separate section, or older scene releases. It would help keeping content seeded, which is the greatest issue on KG, for instance (or Cheggit, if you're looking for an entirely different example).
Anyway, good luck with SCP, no matter the path you guys decide to take with it.
