I was afraid of that, but thanks for confirming.

My only reservation was that it’ll take a really long time (several terabytes on traditional HDDs) but perhaps that is the way to go.

Aha, thank you!

Any of the trackers that show up on the open signups forums, e.g., OnlyEncodes+ and FearNoPeer (both Unit3d based).

I experienced this off and on yesterday. The issue seems to have been resolved. Good luck.

pay to leech

Just chiming in w/ my own experience: In the six weeks since I joined through open registration, there have been at least two periods of global freeleech. Even outside of those times, almost everything I’ve searched for has had multiple versions to choose from, and more often than not, at least one of those versions is permanent freeleech.

There are also multiple bonus point giveaways daily. While there are various donation tiers for those who cannot or will not maintain their ratio through seeding or bonus point buys, it’s definitely not pay to leech—I started from scratch a month ago and I’m doing fine.

We appreciate it!

I signed up and I’m seeing a lot of torrents w/ RAR files. What’s the draw of packaging everything as RAR files instead of just rolling with the original files?

For anyone looking to get into the PT scene, YuScene is a great place to start. I’m not on the staff, but I’m a member and diggin’ it. Open registration and global freeleech are activated until Weds July 9th @ 20:00 UTC Fri Aug 1st @ 20:00 UTC.

EDIT: Open reg + global freeleech have been extended.
