This is the best of the really big general trackers. It’s not perfect, but pretty close for a tracker of its size. Much better than IPT and FL in my opinion. I use this more than any other tracker just out of convenience and the fact the swarms are always so big.

I’ve been using private trackers for 20 years. I just know what I like.

Pay to leech refers to paying to download without contributing anything. It’s a pretty common phrase in the piracy and specifically BitTorrent scene. It’s not ONLY pay to leech, but pay to leech is an option.
You will notice that the higher tiered trackers do not give this option out for donations.
Listen you have to pay the bills. I get it. I don’t think your site is terrible by any means, but their are some things I don’t agree with. It’s your site. You do whatever you want with it. It’s obviously successful.
I’m just offering my opinion. I’ve been around the block and have been an admin of a tracker before. I’ve been using private trackers since before Oink was around. I’ve seen my fair share of terrible sites and amazing sites. You run a good entry level tracker but don’t assume everyone is attacking your. It’s just 0s and 1s. Much love.

This looks like something I would make with Bryce 3D back in the early 2000s but with better lighting. Really enjoy this.

Lots of leechers and decent amount of seeders. Content is decent for a general tracker. It’s a mix of scene and p2p releases. Moderation of uploads was an issue initially but doesn’t seem to be a problem anymore. You could do more much worse and this is a great spot for anyone looking to enter into the private tracker world.
Biggest negative is that it is pay to leech. I get that they need to pay the server bills but they go real hard asking for donations. Also, the sys op had it out on Reddit a few months (maybe a year) back. Not sure what came of it or why, but it definitely caused a stir.
I don’t think their core values necessarily align with mine when it comes to piracy. Pay to leech is only found on low-mid tier trackers for a reason. It brings bad user and keeps away the advanced users.
