    Question Mark

    Recently I thinking about this question, I'm new to private tracker
    things so its answer is up to veteran torrenter.

    I've made a poll for its possibly answer. Please vote mate and give me the reason.

    AFAIK, all big trackers come from small one first.

    It seems I can't see the option for poll creation.

    Then here is some possibility:

    1. Content and uploader
    2. Staff and rules
    3. Community and forum
    4. Speed and retention
    5. Eliteness and niche
    6. Media and hype
    7. Other

    Online reputation, specialized content, quality uploads, fast pretimes, design, staff, community, age, speeds, and much others play into the "popularity" of a tracker.

    *wrote before you put up your polls.
    When I look to join a tracker I analyze all aspects.

    I'd say that content, community, speed, and design makes a tracker popular. Eliteness also works for collectors, but for people wanting a "home," the things I stated are pretty much essential...

    Levels, rarity, hype, "legendary community", and of course, awesome packs.

    The sad part is, I'm not kidding

    As for what should make a tracker popular:
    Diversity of content, torrent retention, special features (useful ones mind you, not just useless fluff), and dedicated staff.

    Any tracker that has dedicated staff, useful features (such as AJAX search-as-you-type), and great content is a win in my book.

    @Rart, What can make a tracker popular in your eyes?. So with this poll we can find who's true collector. .

    A tracker that popular so you can spend days to find invites for it.

    E.g. BCG, I've seen many members looking for it just because it rarely open invite. But after that they doesn't even use it. They're collectors or even traders.

    In short, I was looking for answer on "Why trackers can be grow so popular from a small tracker?". Popular in term of many invitee avaiable or many user want to join it.

    But you can add some side answer too about what should make a tracker popular?. But I think mostly people's answer for this is "content" option and second "community". We're downloader after all.

    Don't see why.
    I primarily joined most trackers for the contents. Aren't they trackers? Aren't they supposed to help people getting the stuff they want?
    I don't like to be forced into a community. If I join a site, I do it because I want to get files from there in the first place. Then, if one day I browse the forums and I find myself liking what's being discussed there, then I may join the fray.
    I'll never join a site merely for the community. No. I want the files, and then I may find myself getting the "click" and starting to be active. Can't really describe the "click", but that's what happened to me some day at FST and here I am.
