Ranking system?

[Skiz]

The color coding already does that.

Like someone will bother reading the legend.
I think the whole point of such list is a quick introduction to torrent scene so ease of use should be a priority.

That's an excellent argument for splitting into levels and colour-coding for content.

Skizo, you've done an excellent job. I think it works just fine as it is in the screenie.
I presume the site names link to the reviews in WIAW.
Will the thread be pruned of old posts?

Since some noobs won't read the legend, I should go with an entirely different format to suit their lazy butts? How does that fit into any reasonable debate?

Yes, the site name will link to the WIAW thread reviews.

As for pruning, do you mean the WIAW? If so, we actually can't, due to all the links. Pruning changes the post counts and throws everything out of whack.

i see you have done agood job skizo but how exactly this is different from the current thread ,all i can see is just it's has swapped places with same layout and forum ,we already have content ranking besides current reviews is agreat way for everyone one to have their decidion about the sites they want

besides to be honest i see it pretty confusing to search for example for level 2 content trackers then try to search the whole page for equal raity for the one i wanted to be able to fulfill a succsessful exchange

i would recommend that the new thread is to be done alone and don't have rarity rating and can be sticked and it should have adifferent layout ,i remember Corey's thread was nice but what i can see is nothing different than the current WIAW thread

Exactly. This is not meant to be for making trades, so if you can't see how it can be used for trades, then skizo succeeded

Although I would be much more for a list by genre, than speed/content/pretime

When it comes to non-scene stuff, most people couldn't care less whether they get a DVD-movie or FLAC-album from 1999 at 1MB/s or 25KB/s as long as they get it. On the other hand they would like to know where they can find movies/music, they don't have access to already.

I think the list concentrates too much on 0-day

Using color-coding will not tell people in any way what each site is about, meaning they will have to click on several reviews or ask.

Another thing is foreign trackers. I have seen dosens of times people getting invited to trackers and then afterwards going "This sucks, I can't make it english layout"

how can it be i strongly refuse this

what ll we get from this i see that this ranking system is perfect and give more details

how it will be when i find ftn and tl for exp. at the same lvl

i can t just believe this

I must say both AugustoP's and Skizo's proposed methods of classifying the trackers have their respective merits.

Personally i think the best would be a combination of AugustoP's listing by genre and Skizo's listing by level OR rating (why use both? the WIAW thread used both since level is for rarity and rating is for content/pretime/speed but using both for the new proposed thread is completely useless)

I propose something like this:

By genre/rating


0day (here you'll find everything that's released by scene groups)

------------------------------------------------------------------

FTN [10] - best overall pretimes, no ratio

SCT [10] - insane speeds, very hard to seed, packs

SCC [9] - very good pretimes and speeds, kinda hard to seed

TL [9] - easy to seed

RevTT [8] - some packs available

PT [8] - very??? good pretimes, lots of free leech torrents, good speeds, has english section at forums

...


By genre/level

If it's going to be done by genre i request an XXX section!!!

wat is that crap supposed to mean
all wat u said is found in the already done ranking and in the reviews ...all wat u want to do is to convince the noobs that TL equals sct and ftn
and that is crazy
tradin is all about rarity u want to believe or not it is all ur problem
u want some anti trade so say it in public and dont manipulate like that

[Mello23]

only WIAW is valid we just can t go on other rules

you're missing the point it's not for trading yes that's right it's not all about trading.

thanks for that

seriously you must be joking right, rules, m8 this is one of the saddest posts I've ever seen. How about just deciding what you want (which is what this guide is meant to help you do if you don't know much about torrents) instead of collecting.
