Sorry, but in neither of the "read receipt requested" pm's you sent me, did you include what I asked for in my original post. So, I'm a frayed knot.

PM sent!

Send me one with an email address and you're good to go lea88, just try to keep up once you get there (I am just joking with you of course)

finally downed a torrent from ptn after a long long time,my apologies for not being active there,i hope u wont mind a little suggestion from a member,this should have been posted at the ptn forums instead of here,but i m a little more comfortable here,u can penalize me for that if u want

1)what if ptn starts hosting "unrared files" only,would take a little extra work but that would be neater i think.

2)a little "subtitles section" like the one on hdchina,where the users could add subs themselves if they can find any,for the files that dont come with subs.

3)i m not sure if its already happening there,but wouldnt it be good if only a select few and the best p2p release groups are allowed on the site,this would stop the site from being cluttered with various releases of the same file,which are almost of same quality,groups like wiki,metis,cbgb,flawless,vision etc could be made available asap after release.

This was discussed at length when I was staff, and the decision was that we wouldn't make it a rule, but a preference. For folks that use servers to download stuff home, rared files are much quicker to transfer. Many torrents are upped unpacked, and pretty much all the internal releases are unpacked. There's an icon to let you know if a file is unpacked.

2)a little "subtitles section" like the one on hdchina,where the users could add subs themselves if they can find any,for the files that dont come with subs.

Not a bad idea.

There have been a lot of recent efforts by the poor moderators to clean up that problem as of late, which is a downside of allowing anyone to upload. As it stands, internal releases are the final trump, but some folks prefer scene releases, so the scene releases are left on the tracker. At this point in time, about 15% of the torrents at PtN are internal releases, so we do alright on that end.

Thanks for the suggestions, and I will defo forward the subtitle suggestion to the staff, cuz it's a good idea.
