This year I‘ll be able to upgrade to 25/25Gbps and I‘m planning on using at least 20Gbps for seeding 24/7. Is any maintainer of private trackers interested in inviting me?

Thanks for the hint. Have been out of the game for 15 years and kinda lost all my contacts, since I was mainly using usenet the past few years

well usenet is a fairly better option too right (if you are in top usenet indexers)? why are you trying to move to private trackers now?

[–] earmuff@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Not everyone is able to afford subscriptions of indexers and hosters. I just would like to contribute to the community with what I have.

Even though I'm sure that's what a Honeypot from RIAA/MPAA would say, then that's awfully nice of you.
I'm fairly sure I have invites to one or both of tleech & tday. Will check later.

Thank you, sincerely!

Do you want to supplement your usenet sources? If so, what type of content/language are you looking for? Do you have any proof like screenshots of the old times left?

Things that should be answered before anyone would consider giving away an invite, because that is also a liability.

Yeah, I will keep on using usenet and just would use torrent as a supplement or additional source. Mainly only interested in movies/shows and games. But to be honest, I don‘t mind seeding other stuff for a couple of weeks, but will eventually have to delete it to save some space for the things I really want.

Maybe there are some screenshots on some old IDE drives or chatlogs of IRC, but I‘d have to invest a lot of time with low chances of finding something useful. So please, don’t trust me blindly. I know that trust has to be built first and that private communities can be fragile at times. So your questions are very valid and relatable :)
