News: BTN to pull all recruitment TTG in total isolation MB returns to GGn after 5 day blackout
> work hard to get PU on RED > dream of getting into PTP > open invite forum > PTP requires 500 torrents and 500GB upload > mfw
I am actually consider grinding uploads. What has become of my life? Eight year old me would have laughed if he know how pathetic I am. Knowing my luck, PTP will pull recruitment just before I reach the requirements.
Automate it with the scripts in the forums. You can get the uploads done in days, the hard part is getting the GBs without a seedbox. If you don't mind a bit of /payingtopirate/ a $7-10 seedbox will net you the upload in a week. Either way is worth it for PTP.

just got a Chrome privacy error while trying to get onto Redacted. Has never happened to me before. Should I be worried?
Jason Perry
Or just fill book requests. Behalf gained near 500GB in just under a week.

No, their security certificate expired just now. Sysops have apparently not automated certificate renewal.
Joseph Long
>sane and competent SysOps That's stretching it. These people worked with Vinnie, they can't be completely corpus mentis.
Charles Torres
Scrooge and Ryuu have documented history of being sane and rational and cool people though
Eli Perry
I already have a seedbox. How I have built up my upload so far is by either snatching from top10 or new releases I know are going to blow up (Kanye, etc.). Assuming uploading torrents won't be a problem using scripts, what is a more optimal way to get upload?
Is getting to PTP using another tracker like AHD or GGn easier?
Tfw no overdrive. Or do you mean uploading from MAM?
Nicholas Lopez
>Tfw no overdrive. Or do you mean uploading from MAM? No, buy the book on amazon, rip drm, upload, then return book.
Josiah Parker
raided by the feds
Angel Miller
If you have a seedbox just autosnatch all 2018 FLAC, you'll get the upload in no time. Don't even touch the top 10, that's stale and will give you virtually no upload. You need to configure autodl-irssi or install varroa to grab FLAC releases the second they are uploaded.
Recruiters at other trackers haven't answered anyone in over six months, RED and HDB are the only way in.
Nathan Young
>Is getting to PTP using another tracker like AHD or GGn easier? in theory yeah. but lets put it this way,everyone complains how they take half a year at best to respond (on top of the half a year you need to even ask for it) while none complain about the speed of the PTP recruiter on RED. >Tfw no overdrive. Or do you mean uploading from MAM? >see ebook requests on RED >find one that's on amazon >buy ebook >crack DRM >fill request >request a refund on amazon amazon will /mark/ your account if you do it too often but if it's spread out the worst that happens is that you need to call for refunds
Justin Gonzalez
This guy spat the truth.
Gavin Harris
Hey fellow anons, ive been out of the tracker game for a while now so i'm not up to date at all on this stuff. is there a way to get into HDB from >PTP,BTN,RED,AB,EMP, BIB, GGN if so, which will take the least amount of time?
Brandon Lopez
I think I will try this, thanks. I had already installed autodl-irssi, but I didn't use it because I thought too many people are uploading crap torrents that are reported quickly or free Bandcamp releases. Do the downloads also be restricted by tag, or are any 2018 FLACs fine?
Jace Wilson
Yeah redbetter-crawler is ez to use & you can transcode shit hard. Just go better.php, Cmd+F “single,” pound that download button until you have 500 transcodes
Justin Jones
Terminate any accounts associating with CC
Asher Williams
I second looking at requests for upload. I shower people in reward for my requests.
Are there paid podcasts or something? I feel like they are all free...
Luke White
>Are there paid podcasts or something? Yeah, there are a few. And some with extra shows or whatever else behind paywalls.
Jason Bennett
Concertos is music videos and shit.
Landon Martinez
You can restrict by filtering in or out any releases you want. Varroa gives more control than autodl-irssi, if you wanted to limit to only releases with a log or if you want to limit how much of your buffer you use up autosnatching in a short time. As long as you are at the computer and you've already built up ~50GB buffer you can set it to autosnatch all 2018 FLAC. Just keep an eye on it to make sure you don't end up in ratio watch. Don't judge the results just by one or two torrents either, some you'll only get a ratio of 0.2 on, and others 1+, so you need to average it out. You're good ad long as the average is over 0.6. This is all based on having a 1-20gbps seedbox, if it's 100mps you are gonna have a hard time. There are autosnatcher and seedbox threads on the forums, check those out for tips.
Jason Powell
There is a tracker for music videos already, I guess since nobody can get an invite they sort of fill that niche too? The main thing I heard people wanted from them was podcasts when they recently allowed it.
Oliver Sanders
RED down?
Is this the start of the REDtopia empire?
Logan Brown
People always say "get a seedbox" but Which ones do you guys use? I've seen so many options getting thrown around but for someone who doesn't have experience with them it's hard to tell what yields the best results. I've seen feral hosting and seedhost.eu thrown around a lot but what do I know. This is not even to be the greatest ratio whore of /ptg/, its something I would like long term but have never pulled the trigger on
Brandon Ward
I'll have to check that out. Hard economy when you have a mixture of really big stuff and small stuff. It's like bib where you can grab a book no problem but if you want an audiobook....
Jaxson Campbell
I like Whatbox. Not the cheapest, no the fastest, but it just werks. Feral is the shit where someone has a freeleech and your box doesn't work.
Bentley Jackson
Feral SSD vs HDD is totally different. Nobody uses SSD so it's pretty sweet. It was like 30 people on ssd vs 300 on hdd when I was messing around with it.
Landon Watson
love whatbox
Connor Thomas
I have over 25GB+ up on BiB and it still makes me cringe thinking about download a audiobook...
protip: Pick what you want, then use bigbois or red to place a request for it where you have a bunch of buffer, then download it there instead. Bigboi's is great for this.
Cooper Morgan
PTP recruits on AHD? Nice
Owen Price
As someone who is used to always grabbing the remux of a film/tv season I have no idea which encode to snatch on AB, given that filesize != quality. Any advice?
Andrew Harris
Read the autosnatcher and seedbox threads on the forums, people rank seedbox suppliers and give real world examples of how much buffer they earn. Andy10gbit is the best of the commonly available suppliers, but it'll cost you ~€200 a month for the better specced 10gbps SSD boxes and is complete overkill for getting TM purposes.
Thomas Jones

Blu-ray 10-bit 720p is your best bet since most anime is mastered at sub 1080p resolutions and you don't want bloated upscales, and they usually touch up poor scenes from the TV airing. For instance, Sailor Moon Crystal and Dragon Ball Super's TV airings aren't worth watching at all
The only time you should worry about 1080p is if it's a movie, or something from the 90's remastered properly like Sailor Moon or Cowboy Bebop
Thank you, user. Screenshotted and filed for all future downloads.
Kevin Hill
And what's better is that all the PTP recruiters spend their days sniffing glue rather than actually logging in to other trackers so none of us neons will be invited anyway
Thomas Harris
>BBT >easy interview >high-quality torrents >limited selection– only one torrent per show/film/manga >a lot of seeders >shitty bonus point system, harder economy than on AB
Landon Carter
How do I get into private trackers, have friends who are in a couple but none of them will invite me cause they ran out of invite codes, is there another way?
OP mentions nothing on how to get into the good shit, no one wants to get into gay public school shit anyone can get into. Fuck off.
Landon Morris
So basically getting into bbt is a waste of time and anyone would be better off searching nyaa or trying to get into ab.
Jeremiah Brooks
if the anime is from the 2000s (basically when digital animation truly supplanted cel) 99% of the time the 1080p version isn't worth it and in some cases 720p is stretching it (and that's if 480p isn't your only option). people get 1080p but they think resolution=quality plus freeleech but most of the time 720p is fine. early 2010's is also only really worth 720p though modern shows are fine with 1080p releases. on cel animated shows a BD remaster can look great though in many cases you'll settle for 480p check what bakabt has for that anime. 99% of the time they choose the best encode out of what's available at the time. there's also extensive comparison for a lot of anime for you to compare yourself
Lucas Brown
Losing to Apooloo Stop listening to shitty soundcloud music or spotify then, wouldn't have bad taste if you didn't allow yourself
Ryan Allen
why do you want to get into hdb when you're already in ptp and btn?
Ryder Hall
OP doesn't mention anything public, though.
Nathan Hernandez
To be fair, he wasn't always like this.

Blake Rivera
>So basically getting into bbt is a waste of time and anyone would be better off searching nyaa or trying to get into ab. you should try getting into AB but BBT is pretty good. the whole point of only having one show per "slot" is because they are the highest version available for the show (usually). that way you don't have to see 15 different encodes and hope that the most seeded one is the highest quality option like it happens on AB for a lot of shows/movies. torrents are well seeded there so i never had to worry about speeds. sure that torrent for Paranoia agent exists on nyaa but it has 2 seeders while BBT had 70 for example. it's still worth it, coming from someone who still uses the site despite being on AB for 5 years. only issue was the the blacklist but that's gone
Parker King
Who is sarek and where are they talking about redtopia
Also is it going to be really a tracker against concertos? Or a music tracker? I hope Vinnie is not this retarded
>Also is it going to be really a tracker against concertos? Or a music tracker? I hope Vinnie is not this retarded I believe the original plan was a music tracker, but he said in the Blutopia chat box that he wants to use it to "compete" or whatever with Concertos (and RED). Believe me, Vinnie is actually that retarded.
Jaxson Gomez
The PTP recruiter on RED is going on vaycaycay at the end of this month and will be away for 3 months.
Jeremiah Wright
>RED HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Thomas White
I seen someone posting pic related on /v/ about the recent death of emuparadise and i dont recognize this UI. Anyone knows which tracker is that?
They don't like being publicly mentioned. Redditfags sperg out if you mention it in r/trackers for example
Alexander Richardson
thanks. If that faggot keep spamming that pic and bragging on /v/, i will try to get him fucked over for mentioning it publicly.
Jason King
I easily meet all requirements for an invite for this on GGn, is it worth getting in if I have more buffer than I'll ever need in my life on GGn and 1.5TB of ROM sets + must play ISOs?
Gabriel Reed
Nope. They have nothing GGn doesn't.
Jaxon Cruz
correct
