    No its not,but really I would suggest go for another one,or stick with your current trackers.

    So is this for pre.
    ScT attracted a certain( status seeking) type of person as does SCC .Hardly makes either of those sites the best ,actually quite the opposite in my opinion.
    Anyway if you are not satisfied with TL then I really doubt if you are going to find anything better about SCC. Edit that maybe the "community" but seriously none of these type of sites revolve around any depth of communication ,if you are looking for that join a non-torrent related forum dealing with a subject that actually interests you.

    Or don't I'm not your boss or some incredible authority on everything,just offering my humble opinion.

    Like most packs are stupid.
    Respect my lack of authority.

    Then allow me to disagree. Each tracker has its own niche, and ScT/SCC fill the niche for being the closest thing, hierarchical speaking to actual scene access, while remaining within the confines of the bittorrent protocol.

    Whether people choose to believe it or not, I do enjoy blazing fast pre-times. There's a reason that the most successful trackers out there, are also the ones with the greatest pretimes and content influx, in their field of material at least.

    While I would agree with you that a lot of people prefer to join SCC/ScT as a status quo, it's hard to imagine being without them for a certain kind of user. The kind that's already used to reliable timings for his/her material, with incredible speeds to match up to it. I can tell you this: TL for example, has never maxed out any of my boxes, even when I bought cheap shared 100mbit boxes. It always maxed my upload, though, which gives reasoning that most of the people on TL limit their upload speed.

    Trust me when I say, idoleyes, those trackers aren't for everyone, they're just for people who are already used to the circuit and it's become part of what they expect, not what they seek. For example, when ScL was down, I invited a couple of ScL uploaders to SCC, considering they could not find any place else that "could compare". A similar thing was felt by all ScT users when the downfall occurred.

    EDIT: As for the packs, well I just have to point out, yet again, that I'm an avid pack user. A lot of people (including me) prefer to watch a TV series as a whole, rather than watch it air week after week. I fall into the group of people that waits for a series to end, then I hunt down a pack and watch it over the course of a weekend with a few friends. Where else but SCC (and previously ScT) could I possibly find this pack up in the fastest possible time? I don't want to wait 2-3 days till people have already ruined the finale for me, before I can start watching it.

    Sorry for the comment and maybe I don't understand but since you live in Canada and being aware of what kind of speed are possible here and since I think viewing any of those series would require FTP download via your home IP what difference does it make if you seebox maxes out or not?

    Btw I think there is nothing "wrong' with series packs ,especially considering being non-current (ie past seasons) doing it any other way makes little sense.

    You're also capped on Bell at 75Gb or less so a majority of what you probably download on SCC is just for the stat(u)s isn't it?
    Since that sort of thing is rampant at trackers like SCC (and before it ScT)is that the type of niche you were referring to?

    Well, my home connection maxes at about 750kbps, while my university maxes out at 1.1mbps, the difference isn't really that significant, and I do enjoy trackers that can use up all 750kbps. TL never even gets past the 200kbps mark for me, consistently dipping below the 100kbps mark, which is still a significant slow down.

    Actually, in Canada, it's illegal to hard cap users. I'm capped at 60gb/mo however, I'm allowed to use anything over that at 1$ per GB for a maximum of 30$ (not 30GB), so effectively, I just pay 30$ extra per month, and download anything I want, while ignoring any service caps.

    EDIT: To be more clear, I was simply using seedboxes as a bench mark, to compare both trackers. I rarely, if ever, use seedboxes on private trackers. That makes trackers like SCC with their freeleech packs (and as mentioned before, prompt uploads) invaluable to me.

    On a 10 mbps line, I've probably experienced about 2-3 torrents in my entire stay there that haven't maxed out my DL, so I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about . And I'm sure that any TV season that would be lacking in peers on TL would most certainly have even less peers on a smaller tracker like SCC.

    And personally I find comparisons regarding seedboxes downloading faster at trackers to be completely moot. Unless you're one of the perhaps 1% or less of the population of internet users that actually have near-seedbox home speeds, your true "speed" that you download at is only as fast as your home connection. Thus having a seedbox download at a "faster" rate of say 50 mbps on SCC than on TL is utterly useless as its simply a middleman. The file isn't on your computer yet, a seedbox is another, time consuming step.

    And how exactly does using the TV packs on SCC make you an "avid pack user"? I don't understand how else it would make sense, other than to keep episodes with packs. Every site does it, and many sites have far more users than SCC which would result in longer retention. SCC didn't come up with some revolutionary idea when they decided to incorporate TV season torrents into the tracker.

    There are other sites that do every little thing SCC apparently fills the "niche" for so much better that their really isn't so much need for it other than status.

    Idoleyes mentioned that he thinks packs are useless but he doesn't necessarily hate them. I mentioned that I love them, and I download every single one that I might need. I do the same at most my trackers, and every time a pack/vs/single poll goes up, I vote for pack. I'm just that a pack lover, because I don't just want MY file, I want to discover more things as well. I was just giving an example with the TV packs. And where else but SCC can I find a pack of a whole season uploaded right after a show ends? Point me in the direction and I will go enjoy my time there, as well.

    I still refuse to accept that everyone in here truly thinks all 18,000 or so SCC members are there for status alone.

    EDIT: PS I still don't understand the whole status associated with SCC/ScT/FTN thing. With the exception of FTN they all have a bucket-load of members, they aren't "exclusive" by far. Any member that tries to "collect" these is just retarded. That is my fundamental problem. I don't understand how being on a certain tracker equates to status in some people's head. You're an SCC member? Great, there's 18,000 more (or whatever that number is, now). You're an HDBits member? Great, there's 20,000 more of those. That's the way I see it. I generally find the same people who associate "status" with membership on a tracker, are the ones that later on say a tracker's rarity shouldn't be why you join it. Great.

    PPS: This isn't a dig at anyone, and not directed at anyone.

    TL does it quite often as well, although certainly not always. They are mostly compiled after a season ends. Although SCC doesn't get them all either, you have to keep in mind that a lot of them were DVDrips, not HDTV packs days after.

    And if you're really into TV, any TV specific site (BMTV, TVT.com, TVT.ro, etc.) will have the season pack extremely quickly as internal uploaders compile them, and sites like TVT are incredibly hassle free to seed at, and much easier to join. There are far more peers as well, so the torrents will last much longer than they ever will at SCC.

    You'd be surprised at the mentality of the every day BTer...

    I'm at BMTV and heartily enjoy it. When the Dexter season finale was airing, it was the only place that had a proper cap of it back then, everywhere else was still in chaos after LOOP went down.
