The mission of /ptg/ is to promote the highest possible standards of tracker service by providing members with opportunities for professional development, by recognizing technical competence through examinations and by advancing the interests of its members.

News: the new login page of ptp gives user problems GGN buffs up again PTP tracker STILL fucking up *Red still has not given tokens, riot immitent Normalfags on suicide watch
Will there be a day when all private trackers are shut down due to copyright infringement? A proverbial ‘day of the Raid(TM)’, when all seeds are rooted out? Or will they be driven so far underground only the most wizardly neckbeards will have access? Or are they actually doing just fine and in the midst of a minor Renaissance? My curiosity is driven by the shift from content ownership to content borrowing/streaming/renting by all major media organizations.

If there is ever a huge crackdown and piracy becomes near impossible, you'll be living in hell because all forms of anonymization software will have to be outlawed. Until then there is nothing that will stop piracy.
Evan Phillips
If GGN really care about the safety of their users then why in the FUCK do they allow people to connect without SSL?
who said anything about ggn caring for their users safety?
Nicholas Sanders
I mean xFyrios seems like a cool guy even if he's been a bit chilly to me lately on discord
Adam Watson
talk to him through IRC?
Lucas Reed
IRC don't have voice chat integration though? Also I worry people can see my IP and might report me
Hudson Thompson
>IRC don't have voice chat integration though? kekwot >Also I worry people can see my IP and might report me only the staff can see your ip and discord can literally see anything about you more than the ip and the chat log i highly doubt xFy would chat with you there even if he is hanging on some discord
Anthony Martinez
We used to gte up on discord and skype but he's been ghosting me lately and I don't even know what I did
Luis White
yeah i used to chat with arti daily too. using telegram nonetheless
Christian Fisher

Is it really safe to talk on private tracker IRC channels?
Kevin Young
what? is arti a man or a woman?
Jacob Robinson
NO! unless you want to get banned for fucking nothing.
Juan Perry
It's a fucking trap david I repeat it's a fucking trap
Jace Bell
yes!
Luke Bell
yes unless you don't know how to act on the rest of the internet
Jason Nguyen
you are seriously trolling my ass fuck off

You can search by ISBN, use the guides on the site to show you how to search if you can't figure it out, although searching by ISBN is pretty pointless unless you are looking for a specific edition in a specific format from a specific publisher & imprint.
Christopher Martin
Bib...
Bentley Williams
that is correct sir. one doesn't simply chat to some tracker staff on discord.
Jayden Taylor
Any trackers have MST3k episodes?
Colton Kelly
Yes...? No! Maybe.
Angel Lewis
Damn, I completely missed that. For some reason I was thinking it should be in advanced search somewhere. thanks
Isaac Allen

What's inside Master gamer's forum ? Where people share their amiibo collections ?
Carson Nelson
perhaps would you like to join APOLLO to ease the pain sir?
wew, new levels of autism perhaps you should beg to join APOLLO
Gavin Stewart
Rather be on APL where they don't fuck with the metadata to fit arbitrary rules.
Joshua Johnson
Is there any way to view freeleech torrents on RED?
Gabriel Murphy
see
David Kelly
The metadata is fucked with to arbitrary rules on all trackers. NWCD are more strict, RED is somewhere in the middle, and apooloo may be lax but don't mistake it for not having arbitrary rules.
Logan Carter
NWCD+APL are less strict on the capitalization; in the case of the artist's intent ALL CAPS is ok
RED are the autistic stepchild
Dominic King
Did ptp lower the class req on red in the past year?
They started recruiting at elite back when they first put up the thread, then less than a month later (may even have been a week later) they raised it to TM+.
Tyler Turner
Any tips for building a ratio on RED?
Luis Roberts
Learn how to automate + seedbox or fill requests. Amazon ebooks are the best to do. Easy buffer, easily refund. You can do about 4 or 5 before they make you call but if you fill 3 requests a month a refund you should be ok.
Justin Richardson
Read the OP. It's there for a reason user.

>RED are the autistic stepchild For reference, I have an MP3 320kbp/s release of The LP of Devastation from Duane and BrandO's site from 2009. This official release from them is not fit to be uploaded to RED due to file names.
Good, there is no reason for those to be all caps. It isn't a stylistic choice as evidenced by the use of title case in the Title ID3 tag, and should have the files renamed to match. Where RED is wrong is when an artist uses a certain capitalisation to fit a style or place emphasis--they should allow that's while still requiring title case for the filename+tags of everything else.

desu I don't give a flying fuck about jews, white or black I only care about race mixing, I don't like black going with white, white going with black. world is a fucking roller coaster and everyone trying to do their part, I'm just trying to leave my mark here
Christian Moore
found the jew! did your mum left your dad for a black guy or something?
Nicholas Hall
catch me outside, filling yo momma with my black seed

according to Jow Forums its because theyre too clever basically

I'd post Yssa, the cutest Jewish girl ever, but I'm tired of having my posts deleted
No, there's no reason to. Copyright holders spend brazilians of dollars pursuing that path and realized it wasn't worth it. Streaming/renting platforms are the direct result of piracy; IP holders realized that the most effective way to combat piracy isn't to kill it but to make it sufficiently inconvenient, and keep their distribution methods as convenient as possible while still overcharging for a cheap product. It's in their interest to raid, but it's cheaper to just compete.
Which is kind of cool in a way because it means piracy basically forced satisfactory reform in the entertainment industry's business practices, which was the problem in the first place. We won.

Anyone know if GGN, BTN and PTP ban Chinese IPs? I got a Britbong friend who lives in China right now, and I want to send him some invites so he can watch stuff and play vidya without having to stream or access Steam over the shitty Chinese internet. He also doesn’t have to worry about his ISP throttling torrents or getting a copyright violation notice cause China.
I didn't think any reputable tracker blocked Chinese IPs? Only India and Egypt?
Ryan Sanders
Yeah I know that Egypt and India are banned. Wasn’t sure if China was also banned since Chinese tend to be viewed as a whole other level of “curry”. This site banned Chinese IPs at one point.
