Reason we stopped it was, we had members hit and running all the time, but we only accept paypal for donations, and as everyone knows, paypal are gits, they will close your account for anything, without even asking ???
so someone donates £25 for VIP (its down to £10 now and you get bonuses on the SP system we have, not gigs for money) they then leech a hell of a lot of torrents without giving back (and yes, we do have a hit and run mod on) we ban them, and countless others like them, they get onto paypal complaining, they get their money back anyway, and after a few paypal close the account, so no more tracker.
Thats the main reason we moved away from it, and we only done 1gig per £1.
other trackers can do what the hell they like for me, im not a member of anywhere else apart from mine. but from my personal standpoint, i believe giving lots of gig away for VIP is wrong, and why?
because its not my BW they are raping, its the uploaders bw they are raping, and whats the point of giving them so much, if you do have a hit and run mod on, whats the point in getting 100`s of gig as a buffer, if you still have to seed everything back to 1:1.
well it turned into a half essay, but thats my view. im not saying that any of them is pay to leech. but i dont see the point in it if you have a strict hit and run policy like we do, for us if we offer it, it will proabably be used to buy a higher class.
PU is 1.5 ratio
SPU is 2.05 ratio and you can upload requests.
