The actual benefit is debatable.[12:19:10] * TheSHAD0W doesn't like 'em, won't join[12:19:19] <fire_> ok. for eg demonoid can be called a closed tracker right ?? as it requires you to sign up.[12:19:54] <TheSHAD0W> The site was closed. I don't think the tracker itself was though.[12:20:04] <fire_> closed trackers are also know as private trackers.[12:20:30] <fire_> TheSHAD0W: ya read that new the site when offline on 25th july. may be now it's forever ....[12:21:37] <TheSHAD0W> No, I mean, web access was limited except for members, but at least in recent days, I don't think the tracker wasw restricted. If you obtained the torrent file from outside it, you could still download using its tracker.[12:22:25] <fire_> TheSHAD0W: can name some private trackers if you know ??[12:22:32] <fire_> the best ones.[12:22:45] <TheSHAD0W> No, don't know any. Sorry.[12:23:49] <fire_> ok :)[12:24:00] <fire_> heard about bitsypder seems interesting to me.[12:28:33] <fire_> thanks TheSHAD0W for the info :)[12:28:37] <TheSHAD0W> NP[12:48:15] *** DeHackEd has joined #bittorrent[13:46:26] <DreadWingKnight> fire_: as far as many of us here are concerned[13:46:42] <DreadWingKnight> there are no private trackers that even classify as "good"[13:51:05] *** fire_ has quit IRC[14:03:47] *** DWKnight has joined #bittorrent[14:07:10] *** DreadWingKnight has quit IRC[14:16:25] *** dandon has quit IRC[14:34:14] *** The_8472 has joined #bittorrent[15:40:32] *** sqrrl has joined #bittorrent[16:33:30][16:44:08] <sqrrl> well there are some that don't fail[16:46:03] <sqrrl> the usual advantages (nice description/categorization, malware-free content, higher speeds) usually overweight the 'benefit' of not having to register[16:47:38] <K`Tetch_> higher speeds? i've never had a problem maxing my connection out on most torrents, public or private[16:48:02] <K`Tetch_> the first two depends on the site, not the tracker (two different things)[16:48:29] <K`Tetch_> and of course, the downside is that you have to fight the silly 'ratio rules' and the chronic overseeding to stay on the tracker[16:48:49] <K`Tetch_> oh, and 90% of private rtacker admins are utterly clueless about bittorrent[16:50:40] <sqrrl> i use some closed tracker that doesn't have any ratio rules so overseeding is not a problem[16:51:15] <sqrrl> but the fact is, i usually can't get over 800 kib/s from thepiratebay and can get over 2mib/s from rutracker[16:51:30] <sqrrl> even if it's 40 peers from the former and 2 from the latter[16:53:14] <K`Tetch_> I'm wondering if your settings are off then[16:53:44] <K`Tetch_> but 800 isn't exactly slow[16:55:33] <sqrrl> the usual settings i have.. preference for secure connections, open ports for incoming connections, etc etc[16:56:05] <sqrrl> i dunno why this happens and i don't care much cause everything i need can usually be found on rutracker[17:17:25] *** pecc has joined #bittorrent[17:17:54] <pecc> are newb questions okay?[17:18:46] <pecc> more importantly, are tangentially related questions okay?
