for some reason it doesn't want to change language I have cookies enabled and even went as far as to disable uBlock woth no results anyway, what is the non-seedbox startegy to make 50gb, just download all freeleech and hope to make enough upload?
There are new freeleech torrents pretty much daily. Hop onto one of those with your home connection, or just buy a cheap VPS for a month.

HOLY SHIT
FraMeSToR is set to double up with 2 world firsts, we are exclusively releasing a 4K remux of Pacific Rim Uprising with DOLBY VISION, months before anyone else.
Members of FraMeSToR have been working hard behind closed doors with the lead developer from a well-known movie player company(they will make their own announcement shortly) to produce a process to extract the Dolby Vision package from the disc and integrate it into a Matroska multimedia container(mkv).
As for the Pacific Rim Uprising source itself, we need to keep that close to our chest; but it was a result of a chance meeting on a flight with a pissed off ex-employee from a production company with friends on the inside. More exclusives to follow.
Here is a LINK to the torrent. Please remember this is strictly a BeyondHD exclusive; anyone found uploading it elsewhere will be banned without appeal.
Henry Long
leaks are always bad news for trackers.
Julian Price
>50gb it might've been a different number, be sure to check
>just download all freeleech and hope to make enough upload? probably. try to be early on new featured torrents, those get downloaded a lot. also make sure you keep enough torrents seeding to get enough bonus points, that's usually the hardest part.
Jordan Brown
66gb up 33gb down 6666 bps
can't find anything on the rules or FAQ about hit and runs, do they enforce minimum seeded time? thanks for the input
I'm a BTN power user and I want to join one of the nicer private music trackers. I had an account on what.cd for like 5 years before it shut down. The only invite thread for a music tracker is notwhatcd. Is that tracker worth joining or are ones like redacted better?
Cameron Johnson
Should mention, I want a tracker with heavy emphasis on FLAC and I'm very lazy so I don't want to do an interview.
Gavin Carter
>Emphasis on FLAC NWCD >Nicer private music trackers Redacted
Gavin Barnes
So redacted is more active and has more torrents?
Christopher Gray
no idea, sorry. there's a HnR counter on the profile page, but mine's always been zero. but i also seed at least for a couple of days so who knows
Easton Morales
apollo
Andrew Flores
Slightly more than NWCD, yeah.
Nicholas Turner
apollo has more shit in general i've found a sacd rip that it was like, lost forever and the album wasn't even on red, and then i go on apollo and boom the full sacd and seeders, fucking amazing.
Kevin Jackson
Isn't it sad that we've come to an age when nobody uploads older stuff because that won't get snatched. And all that matters is just the buffer. With this mindset whatcd's library will probaby never be restored. I feel like there should be a contest or some shit where they encourage the uploading of older stuff.
Hudson Turner
Were you aware that APOLLO the god of music trackers is stepping up to the plate and their implemented bonus points system rewards users for seeding old content?
Wyatt Parker
thanks to autosnatching and seedboxes, the ratio system is just broken. uploaders don't get anywhere near the level of buffer that autosnatchers and seedboxes get, it's a joke.
Ian Sullivan
Are there people that actually use RED for music? Nobody snatches old stuff and when they do they only grab V0 just so they dont waste their 100 GB buffer. It just seems like RED is a tracker that people only use for the invite forum.
Brandon Ward
nah, its mostly just an rpg tracker. better the apoo, but that really isn't saying much. all music trackers are straight trash.
Joseph Harris
i use public trackers WITHOUT VPN AHAHHAHAAAH u fegets :D all u need is one setting retard
why the fuck are my uploads not counting as seeding (and therefore getting deleted) on RED even tho the torrents arent giving any tracker errors, only happens on red. what a piece of shit tracker
Xavier Jackson
about to start playing this rpg, I have a question though can I get to RED PU without a seedbox? my home connection is about 80/8 mbps and I could use a rpi3 to seed 24/7
Easton White
you can easily get the required upload for PU in a week with 8mbit up if you grab torrents as soon as they are uploaded.
Brandon Evans
yea, you can, but it's going to take you quite a while.
Isaac Campbell
Sorry, I have no clue what's their IRC. Plus my account was years back.
Do you think the account is still there or deleted - which is more likely for the latter.
Isaiah Butler
Are encodes for movies encoded at a variable bitrate or a constant bitrate?
Christopher Smith
Specifically talking about HD internals
Daniel Morris
I am going to take out the cabal
Jordan Cox
this but unironically.
Ryan Brooks
Depends on the encoder and the source but most of the time it's variable
Bentley Gutierrez
Thanks. For variable bitrate encodes. What would make the bitrate increase during playback?
Lincoln Fisher
i have a shitty 20gb vps that is fast as fuck i have a 23 tb server at home that is slower I do not want to seed from home
would it be viable to have my 20gb vps have an sshfs mount of my server at home and seed from it? utilizing the caching that sshfs provides
John Morris
Movement mostly, rapid scene changes in an action movie would be a good example. For DXVA the max bitrate allowed is around 68000 so there's plenty of headroom
Xavier Jackson
EMP - how?
Jordan Butler
M-Team lottery is open if anybody wants that
Jordan Flores
red pu
Charles Lewis
Mfw I got into all of the cabal starting at MAM, never took RED interview and never owned a seedbox, my up is 1mbps annd best part is, it only took me 4 months
Gabriel Richardson
teach me senpai
Michael Brown
Its not hard, getting PU on MAM in a month is easy as fuck, and as long as youre not a /pure/fag you can probably get invited into anywhere if youre a bit lucky Ill avoid to say where I got in after MAM due to /marked/, but after 2 months there I got unofficial invites to all of the cabal except RED, got into RED recently through a cabal tracker
Aiden Baker
shouldve picked APOLLO fuckboy
Lucas Clark
>user reports that BTN will recruit at RED >he doesn't have account or access yet he big boy OP now wew
Isaiah Ward
I just upgraded to 250/250mbit, I'm gonna build a seedbox and seed like a maniac!
I wanna say ANS does one day a month for open signup or something, but it's been a while so don't quote me on it.

another day another 10mb uploaded to red
Easton Wilson
Is this loss
Nathaniel Reed

My sides. Finally this tracker is good for something
Connor Brown
irc's dead & retired.
> tried to check if account's still in the database > password recovery > email doesn't exist
i cared so much about trackers when i was like 14 gft (sucked) ptn (sucked) cosanostra (sucked) scc (sucked) pass the popcorn (sucked) what.cd (elitest faggots on ice) waffles - cool pretty sure its gone torrentleech (possibly biggest fag admins i ever witnessed, but my favorite till i forgot about it and got pruned) '
I probably forgot to shit on a few sites. iptorrents is all i have left but with the state of music, tv and movies what's there to even pirate if you have netflix, hulu and dvr
Chase Anderson
why not go for the recruitment then? doubt they'll find out you had an account before
What's a public torrent index website? The only one I could remember was torrentproject and it doesn't work anymore. Also soitgoes apparently got a new owner and domain, does anyone know about it?
Daniel Robinson
I downloaded some albums from a torrent, but their naming scheme is not the same as the one I use.
Is there a way to modify the name of the files but still seed them?
Austin James
no. do not mix seeding files with your music library
John Cook
symlinks
Justin Rodriguez
PrivateHD worth applying for? Already got decent stats on AvistaZ so I'm guessing it wont be hard to get in.
Mason Watson
TV remuxes are probably their biggest draw. They have quite a bit of stuff well seeded and there's a ton of freeleech.
