What do you think of blackcats-games

Thats the problem, most members do not realise how great it is.

I am just having a discussion now on BCG, a member is saying other trackers that he is on dont ban until you get to a .5 ratio or lower, here is basically my reply.

but how on earth are those systems better, if you get banned with a .5 ratio

on here you could have a 1 Global Ratio (includes SP) and upload 0.00 Actual upload and still keep your account.

just a few of the top SP payout members.

so 6 of those would have been banned elsewhere, but they can still keep their accounts here, and members still say its to hard here, it just boggles the mind.

If you download something, just seed the thing, if a leechers shows up, great upload to them, if not, its not the end of the world.

honestly it does just boggle the mind sometimes how members just do not get it at all.

and obviously if you want PU/SPU then bloody work at it a bit, we cant just hand you everything on a plate, you have to do something yourself.

it is mind boggling. but i guess it's just one of those things some people will never get through their head (another example: rar vs unrar). i dont see the point of pulling out your hair over it. on bcg, it's hard just to seed to .5 sometimes, so even that isnt a good ratio/ban system.

[stoi]

But its not hard to get a .5 actual ratio either, thats what is so confusing.

I downloaded all 3 xenosagas for the PS2, I have been seeding them for a month, not a month constant either, i do turn my PC off on a night, I also get capped for 10 hours of the day to 25KBs upload, 80KBs usually.

This is all actual upload btw from utorrent, not what the site says with any SP bonus i may have got. but if you do add SP bonus to the below, thats quite a nice ratio on each one.

Utorrent episode 1 is 8.76gig i have uploaded 21gig 2.5 ratio
Site Created: 31d 17:32:04 Timespent: 19d 16:19:48 Torrent Ratio: 2.572

Utorrent episode 2 is 6.79gig i have uploaded 9.05 gig 1.3 ratio
Site Created: 31d 17:31:02 Timespent: 17d 15:47:27 Torrent Ratio: 1.715

Utorrent episode 3 is 6.29gig i have uploaded 9.93gig 1.575 ratio
Site Created: 31d 17:26:59 Timespent: 17d 15:17:33 Torrent Ratio: 1.825

and 2 of the 3 still have leechers on them. and as you can see, SP has boosted those ratios up even higher.

and old games, not brand new scene releases, they were recycled actually just before i downloaded them, so had already been on the tracker for over 18 months, and not a SB in sight (from my end)

So all it takes is a bit of patience, and anyone on the site can get to PU/SPU.

I really don't think members realise how much they do get out of the SP system and how this enables them to jump on older stuff that they couldn't on other sites.

What they also need to realise is that BCG is unique as a tracker and in the use of the SP system. If they don't like it they could always find another tracker which has the same content as BCG...oh but they can't because BCG is unique. It is because of this that they shouldn't be comparing it to any other trackers.

[stoi]

well thats another thing, we just cant please everyone can we.

I'm not sure why you would think that making Blackcat's into a humongous garbage dump with over 6,000 torrents nobody wants to download, an actual goal to achieve.


Anyway, if you wish to waste your time, life, bandwidth, resources, electricity on idle torrents going nowhere to nobody, go ahead. I just prefer to put my energies into something more useful.

and you wonder why us tracker owners loose our temper sometimes.

stoi, can u send me invite to black-cats??

[omgwtfbbq]

I like BCG but the admins seem to spend far too much time on worthless tinkering when the focus should be on getting more peers, and higher quality uploads (install instructions, patches, nocd's etc).

[stoi]

worthless hmm OK.

we cant force members to download, and we have 70,000 seeders so thats not to bad.

and how hard is it to install a game, its like riding a bike, do it once, and you can do it 1000 times.

Does black-cats has PS3 games?

And what is happening with register page, is it down by purpose, or admins are working something, i read here there will be new invite system?
