if you're going to start a new tracker...

If a tracker doesn't have something new or unique to offer, then they don't need to waste their time. There are already more than enough of almost every type of tracker.

1. Good torrents
2. Very good Design
3. Some easy way to keep you're ratio okay ( NO bonus points)

and the most important thing:

GOOD STAFF!!!

Hype the site up before it opens.

Don't have open sign-ups until you need to.

Consider inviting people you trust into the tracker initially and then maybe open the forums up to anyone and have people apply to join through the forums.

And as someone else has also pointed out....good trustworthy staff.

Try to do some teams for special sections, like 4/6 teams for old tv eps, 10 teams for old movies, some teams for DVD-R (with a lot of subs for all dvd !!!) ... If you have a lot of dedicated uploaders (as I said before), your tracker will be verry attractive !

of course, there's the usual like fast pretimes... good speeds... etc. but others have added "extra flavors" like a no-ratio system (LeechBits) or "freebies" if a certain rls doesn't get uploaded in time (like Ft.N).

i know a bunch of guys who are planning on starting a tracker but since there's so many out there, i figured there must be SOMETHING that (majority of the) people want that hasn't been done or implemented yet.

fire away!

Someone needs to write new source. TBDev is dated beyond belief. Ersan seems to have at least started on something interesting at stdev.net. It's something the torrent community could really use.
