advantages of using public trackers over private trackers

Another great advantage of the public sites: you don't have to deal with some power hungry kiddies who get erections when they disable some account.

 

[Emmm]

More content and better retention maybe?

 

[Laffy]

Pros:
More Content
No Rules
Anonymity methods are allowed, no account needed

Cons:
Shitty quality content
Fakes/Viruses
Shitty speeds on the more obscure stuff you can't find on private sites in the first place
Shitty retention on all but the most popular content
Anti-P2P groups actively send out letters rather than just monitoring you
Idiots that HnR, cheat, don't seed back, etc aren't weeded out.

You mean they don't have IRC channels?

What you can't do that on private trackers? :O When was this decided? I hit and run like a motherfucker on TL and SCC and other various places.

90% just don't give a shit as long as you have a buffer. It's the funny truth.

the only advantage imo is that u dont have to worry about ur ratio

no fear of getting your account disabled due to inactivity, one of the biggest advantage according to me.

Put that along with no rules and you'll see why people love them.

The only thing I really hate about public trackers are the anti=piracy groups waiting to send out copyright infringement notices... :dry:

 

[Audrie....♥]

Exclusive Releases vs Copy and past Releases
May be ?

Who needs to cheat on a public tracker if they don't keep track of ratios or don't care about them?

 

[Tyler M]

People who use that fun "turn off your torrent's seeding capability" thing.

 

[CrudestSaint]

Exclusive Releases vs Copy and past Releases

More exactly..?

 

[crusader4life]

That's outright leeching, not cheating. :lol:

 

[Feliciaaa. :D]

I can do ratiowhoring as much as I want

 

[Cruiser]

You'll find all kinds of stuff which is the main advantage. Cons are slower speed, more people will be leeching your bandwidth away, and the chances of getting an isp copyright infringement notice go through the roof for popular warez.
