Decent alternative(s) to IPT?

So what you're saying is since I like a good piece of fish,I should also eat the scales.
Perfect sense.

I was being ironic.

But to be fair, there is nothing wrong with packs, as you can easily just select that good piece of fish out of them and ignore the scales. Or the other way around, if you're the typical anti-mainstream hipster with a chip on your shoulder.

I use both IPT and TL. IPT does seem to be just after your money. The 1 day left donation banner stayed up for like 3 days....too funny. I dont really have a issue with IPT (although i agree with the rules being ridiculous). I have a standalone computer on my network for torrenting that i just leave running. If i want to game online ill just pause the seeding so my ping isnt outrageous, then when done restart the seeding. I find it real easy to get a ratio on IPT. Download the freeleech porn and seed it for weeks.

IPT is one of those trackers that if you cant keep a computer up and running (seeding all day) that you should stay away from.

I guess 2 torrent limit is for uploading which he is trying to say , with nCore only allowing good quality video allows more seeders on single which leads to large seeders on older torrents.Over the last 4 months they have made there uploading rules even more tighter they banned some re-packer games group since they always used to have some or other problem so the message is clear they only want quality uploads

But TL isn't real iPT alternative. It has a lot less torrents. Is there any other English tracker that can go chest to chest with iPT?

A number of good alternatives have been mentioned in this thread. While they all are located somewhere in Eastern Europe, the vast majority of the content is English, and it's not a challenge for English speaking users to navigate them, unless they are mentally handicapped.

TorrentDay and maybe Filelist.ro

Yes I do the same But I use TorrentDay ans my main tracker . I would say 99% of my D/l come from there Before I got a seed box I had to use publick trackers becausemy speed and monthly data cap would not allow me to seed back as much as I would have liked to so for all the time pre seedbox my ratio was more or less dead on 1 which was maintained by what litte I could share back or having to get stuff from public trackers or as I did a fair few time donated $5 $10 and once even $30 but it keept me on the right side of the 1-1 ratio plus gave me lots of VIP time and quite a few invites to play with In fact I still have 5 I think. But now iv got the seedbox and had it a couple of weeks iv managed to up nearly 400gb and get my ratio up to 1.2 as i had already done over 1Tb before I had the seedbox. So its going to take some getting back but I want at least a 2 or 3 to 1 ratio The other torrent site is ok for D.
/l as they appear quite quickly but no one d/ls them so you can soon drop your ratio. I think I would like to join IPT but I saw the page where you can donate £20 to get in But what if I do and dont like it. Id rather get a invite first to try it Then if its ok I dont mind donating. I mean even now with TD even so I have the seed box and it makes my ratio OK I will still donate as The guys who run and set all the gear up are doing a sterling job and dont get much out of it for what they put in do they? I mean they spend ages setting it all up then ages maintaining it all plus keeping up with how fast technology changes so are constantly upgrading I bet Only then to have to start asking for help with the systems uptake If it was me I would make every one pay a fee It would get rid of the garb and go types or those that just sit and take and take but never give. But thats just my thought on the subject..
This always happens once I get going I seam to talk and talk LOL

So thats it for now. Sorry if your one of those takers but like I said its just how and what I feel.
