then I guess you were there right from the beginning, what sites did one use back then??

Myself I really started in the beginning of 2005 when the local torrenting became big

ummm...don't have the best recollection in the world but off the top of my head, Torrentbits, FileList (yup...they were actually one of the better ones waaay back.) and Phoenix-Torrents. I'm sure I'm leaving out several but its been a while. Oh...and a ed2k/torrent site called SpankDonkey where I staffed besides Phx Torrents (R.I.P. *sniff sniff*).
Ofc Suprnova was the king of public trackers back then...

It took me a while to find out about Demonoid, and all subsequent private trackers. I'd say around 2006.

I Started in 2007, The only sites I really use are Revtt, Tl, and a Elearning site. Im very new to forums. I just use to go one the site see what movies and music or anything im interested in. I read and follow the rules of all my sites. I used to use the tpb, until i was invited to a private site. I been reading through the forums and it mentions that people are receiving isp letters from downloading off of certain private sites. Is it safer to download off sites with a smaller member base or does it not matter?
