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?
Bandwidth has literally never been a problem on any tracker. BitTorrent made bandwidth concerns obsolete over 20 years ago, as long as files are well-seeded.
You will have to pay your dues like everybody else.
Glad to hear that bandwidth is no issue anymore. Then I use my bandwidth for something else :)
Yes, you should enjoy it! But it will not get you any invites. Which, incidentally, you should not be asking for in public forums. It’s frowned upon. A lot.
Step 1: Join the private trackers that allow you.
Step 2: Create a setup that will grab and seed every freeleech known to man.
Step 3: Seed to capacity. Give it all you’ve got.
Step 4: Post proofs when applying/trading/asking for invites and watch as people shit their pants as you prove you can seed 1 Petabyte at every tracker.
It’s all about proof. You can go to employers and say “I’m the best engineer.” And maybe you are. But they don’t care.
Show them your portfolio of the bridges you’ve built, the parts you’ve designed, the projects you finished.
Show them proof. Put your worth on the table. And they will let you in.
You have the connection. Now you just need a fuck ton of storage to seed like a crazy person on that connection. Tons of NVMEs, and I hope your ISP doesn’t nab you for any torrents, hopefully not for private.
With enough storage and the right setup, you could be at like 400TB on every tracker in a year. Problem is you’ll probably run out of freeleech’s on smaller trackers, but on a bigger one you could fill up your storage, put your connection to work, and seed your way up the ladder.
When you have 3-5 accounts from good trackers with tons of buffer, that’s your key to getting in. Go interview at MaM and start there. Seed seed seed, and go from there.
Buy lots of storage, maybe set up a dedicated server at home for your awesome connection. Keep adding all the MaM freeleeches every 2 weeks. Never delete them. You’ll be at a kabillion in like a year. You’ll also have about 12TB of seeding just for MaM, but hey, that’s how you do it.
Fast connection, tons of storage, good workflow/setup. That’s how you win.
Because PTs want people with a fast connection, tons of storage…and a setup they can prove they know how to use. It shows you’ll be a good member.
Having a fast connection is only one aspect. You have to show the PT world that you know how to use it and post stats to prove it.
Also, ripping and uploading rare/new content helps, if you can do that too. Being an uploader totally proves your worth.
Do all that, screenshot your account stats after all that seeding, and you can get in anywhere. Show them you mean business. 300TB account, 1000:1 ratio. Impress them. You’ve got the connection for it.
It’s against the rules of most trackers to give out invites to randos, sorry bud. Find one that is doing an open sign up and register an account. Then figure out which torrent sites recruit from the site you signed up for.
Bandwidth is one part… Storage is theother and usually you have less storage than bandwidth anyways.
There are actually three parts:
- Bandwidth
- Space
- Personality/engagement with community
You can have number 1 and 2 but still piss off an admin and get banned for 3.
Oh I‘m not inexperienced in that area, so I absolutely know what you mean. I just kind of lost the connection to that scene.
Of course. I hope you can find a new connection to that scene. It sounds like you’re a reasonable person with a decent attitude, so you shouldn’t have too much trouble with admins, I wouldn’t think. Most admins I’ve dealt with are pretty fair, even if they’re not the most… amicable, let’s say.
How much will you be paying for a 25Gbps connection? And where do you live for these speeds to be available? Where I live 1Gbps is the max since a few years ago and costs 80€.
Can’t help you with private trackers except recommending taking the invite for RED/OPS. TL sometimes does open signups and is solid for english content. MAM has a friendly and active community, so I definitly recommend joining them (if you’re interested in books/audiobooks).
In Switzerland, the ISP Init7 is offering all their connections for CHF 777.- (USD 861.-) per year and you just get the maximum speed, which is currently 25/25Gbps. This provider is well known for fighting for net neutrality and being against any censorships or mass surveillance. I just love them very much and wish that other countries would have such awesome ISP‘s as well.
Be carefull, the ISP may be well-meaning to torrenting, however that doesnt change that technically, uploading unlicensed content is not legal in switzerland.
As well as breaking other laws (by downloading/spreading extremist content for example) can get you in trouble still.
*Apparently it seems that in switzerland Games for example are in a different legal category from a Movie and such and are technically also illegal to upload. Though I dont really think rhant a private person just suddenly gets into major trouble because of this.
Thanks for the heads up. I am well aware of this. Obviously I would try not to get too much attention and would probably block all Swiss clients from accessing my server. Having legal issues internationally at that scale without any money involved is unlikely. But that‘s just my hypothesis.
Edit: only because I‘m a pirate does not mean I have no moral values. I would never want to distribute heavily illegal content. Only copyrighted content.
Seems like they are using CGNAT, which means you won’t be able to connect to some peers who are also not connectable due to both closed ports. One must open their port to establish connections.
They can surely remove you from CGNAT but for extra cost. I think paying for seedbox is much cheaper.
