Private BitTorrent tracker site rankings?

[Jared Moya]

How are private bitTorrent sites currently ranked, (ie which are #1, 2 etc.) and how do you and others each determine their ranking?

Is for a story Im doing here @ ZP. THX

[Jared Moya]

To get started, I believe http://uk-t.org/ is a #5 level site, not sure why that is though. Tough to get into I presume?

[optimus_prime]

well here's ranking maintained by buggyme and patriot foreve of fst, it is accepted widely as fairly accurate representation of supply/demand. some rankings are little off as they obvioulsy haven't included more recent wave of openings into calculation, but that's just couple of half-points around the middle. so...

This Scale Is To Rate Sites From 1 To 5
1 being the easiest to get an invite or account and 5 the hardest.
This has nothing to do with the contents of the trackers.
Ratings of trackers themselves are in the [#] tags.
Not all trackers will be in this list.
NOTE: THIS LIST SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN LITERALLY.
It's just to figure where each site stands (rarity-wise)
Do NOT ask the URL of the sites specified in this thread.

Level 1
These sites are open for sign ups. Any users looking to join any of those sites can simply go to the site and register.

Bitsoup[3.5] - ILoveTorrents[3] - Midnight Torrents[3] - docs.torrents.ro[3.5] - DVDseed and countless others...


Level 2
Accounts at these sites are very easy to obtain. If you ask for an invite/account here in this board - chances are you will get one for free.

Pisexy[3.5] - Demonoid[3] - TL[4.5] - iPLAY[4] - ST[3.5] - SCC[3.5] - FileZone[3] - FL[3] - DH[3] - HT[3] - ChronicTracker[3] - TD[3] - SITR[2.5] - XboxSky[4] - PussyTorrents[4] - Dimeadozen[4] - Bitspyder[3.5] - Filemp3[3.5] - Learnbits[3.5] - HorrorChannel[3.5]- KrayTracker[3] - TVJunkies[3] - UKNova[3.5] - Elbitz[3] - TvT.ro[3] - BitHDTV[3.5] - x264[3] - FinDVDR[2.5] etc.

Level 3
Accounts at these sites are harder to obtain due to various reasons. However - it is still fairly easy to get provided that you offer a site with the same value in return.

Swebits[4] - Snowtigers[3] - BitMe[4.5] - OiNK[4] - KG[3.5] - ThePlace[3.5] - HDBits[3.5] - VIPMusic[3] - RMVBusters[3.5] - - Sweloaders[3] - TS-Tracker[3] etc.

Level 4
Accounts at these sites are quite difficult to obtain. It may take you a while to get into these sites.

NB[4] - SweDVDR[4] - TT[3.5] - Revolt[1] etc.

4.5: FB[4] - FTWR[3] - E***o[4] etc.

Level 5
Getting an account at these sites are very difficult if not impossible. Consider yourselves lucky if you have an account at these trackers.

FTN[5] - ScT[5] and U***[3]

numbers in squares are tracker ratings, based on content, speed and pretimes. obviously content is somehow subjective, especially around the middle, but you can be sure those with ratings 4-5 are superior trackers.

[import_fighter]

its really a rarity scale...content wise some level 2 trackers are better than say level 4. but that is why the list has the content rating of each as well.

[Scoobi]l[Doo]

I dont want the url of the rankings but can you write it in full words?Thanks, because i cant nothing begin with some short things like Scc, DH , HT, TD, SITR, TTi, FSC, RP, rSR, IT, TT , NB, FB, FTWR, KG and FTN... thanks :).Or is there any Legend of this :).Your answer will be appreciated.

[david2232313]

thanks for new ratings

[Dr_Green_Thumb]

#1 the almighty SCT
SoulXTC you dont want to write about UK-T utter rubbish
FTN #2 unless someone can invite there and I can make a fair comparison

[redMonster]

I think FTN should be number 1, because nowadays ScT hasn't got great pretimes. It only has good speed. Very less releases, and pretimes many times worse than TL, etc. So I think FTN deserves no. 1.

The level of the tracker on FST is solely determined by its rarity mostly. Many poor trackers are above level 4 in that ranking system, like FTWR and Revolt.

[heart_of_wantings]

i know a better pretimes site than ftn. for example stalker ,cnc3 was upped before at ftn/sct/tl. but its a secret :-)

[optimus_prime]

as argued before, pretime isn't everything. there's no advantage in offering scene release 10 minutes before competition if your seeders don't have pipes to deliver, it doesn't matter when do you start the download but when do you finish it, and by that parameter sct will get you new release on your hard disk while others are still downloading.

and soul, you might want to move this thread to bt invite trading forum so it's not that much in the open :icon_thum

[testicles]

If he's composing an article on this it will be quite open in the end anyway.

[fargif]

I think Zeropaid members should come together and make our own top trakcer list.This list while is very good,doesn´t meet everyone´s vote here.This is from another forum and we should make 1 from us.

[Dr_Green_Thumb]

I dont like the rarity ranking. I am all about content, speed and the people. I could find the elusive golden turd but its still a turd

[ultimatet]

i being newbie here, cant get right with all these shortforms... could someone please enlighten me? which is ScN? which is E***? which is U***????

[Bucktoof]

Hahaha, Dr_Green_Thumb, the elusive golden turd is still a turd.. haha

I like the idea of ZP creating it's own list like one of the above posters said.
