bit torrent advice

[BillStruth]

hey guys

introducing my 16 year old nephew to the delights of bit torrent, and have set up his pc ready to roll.

thing is i only use private trackers, but dont want to invite him until he is fully accustomed. once he knows what he is doing i will invite him on to the sites i use myself.

which sites would you recommend for downloading, for someone just starting out?

How about demonoid? If it get's up soon? they don't have strict policy,so it coud. Stuff like spytorrent and others are usually not that userfriendly,lot's of misslabeled stuff h&r and possible dangerous.

The Pirate Bay is a huge public tracker.

And many others like Torrentspy, Mininova and Isohunt are good too.

i had considered demonoid, but it was down, and he is itching to get started.

Invite him to TL, easy to keep a ratio with a normal home Cable/DSL connection, and very fast downloads.

Well any public tracker would be good. I can throw you a td invite for him. Their pretty helpful with the n00bs, and its really easy to keep a decent ratio and break your teeth on. And if he turns into a leecher of doom they wont punish you for it.

BillStruth pm me his email. I wouldnt invite him to tl until hes proven worthy or youll get a big fat red mark for his faults.

Register on some open sites like filemp3, demonoid, leecherslair, bitsoup. And there are public trackers too.
