i think speed ,content and friendly staff
Content takes my vote!
I don't mind waiting for some time till I get the thing which I desire, I'm an ex-emule user so I have patience
Every time I get to a new tracker which has a new content to offer me (specialized trackers, or just good trackers with a big variety and selection of torrents, I feel satisfied
Therefore, I'm in a constant search of a few trackers, doesn't matter which, that can offer me a new kind of torrents (non-scene for example) and I'm usually not interested in another regular 0-day tracker with no, let's say, uniqueness
I really don't give a shit of pretimes, I usually don't wait to any release, and just pick them up while browsing the torrents, or just search for this torrent when I need it (I never had a situation were I needed a torrent which hasn't been uploaded yet and got to the tracker a long time after... at least I can't remember a situation like that)
Speed is also a factor, but, as I said, it's not the main one
I enjoy high speeds, but sometimes I add a torrent to my client which I would probably use it in a week\month\x time after it has been snatched
Design, yea, I would also like the tracker to have a nice and pleasant design
The design usually gives me a first impression of the tracker, and also attracts me to use it (if it's a good design, of course)
I would always like to have a nice design in the tracker I use, it's just nicer that way
That's a nice poll, I like it
Picked rarity but content is close contender. I wouldn't not use a tracker because it isn't rare but I like feeling a bit more private about what i download which is why I value rarity.
Got some excellent and detailed responses such as the one DyNast post. Hopefully will get more of these.
I find the result of the poll so far to be quite interesting. Was expecting content and speed to be up there at the top, but was rather shocked so few care about security issues, as for me that was right up there with the forums.
Edit: thank you KinkyAfro for your honesty. I was wondering who'll be the first person with enough integrity to admit caring about rarity.

Content for me, speeds help when we have rush.
Similar poll here:

I missed your poll 0Ri0N when searching the forums, and it does seem somewhat similar although it was conducted ~6 months ago. Thank you for the pointer, and in fact it may be quite interesting to see how views of members have changed during that period.

I have to say content as well. If it wasn't for the content being different, I would be quite content with one tracker for movies, one for music etc.
Friendly staff and community come as close second and third though as well as security i.e knowing I won't get threatening letters for upping something. There aren't that many good trackers that would allow me to up with my measly up speed, which hopefully is subject to change.
