Hi. Following on from my previous giveaway last month, I now have FOUR TorrentLeech invites that I'm just giving away. No bullshit, just say you want it and it might be yours.

My IRL friends wouldn't have a clue what to do with these so I'm just giving them away again.

I'll probably leave this up for 24hrs or so and then, as before, choose four people at random. Good luck :)

EDIT: I closed this early due to the crazy amount of responses. I took the number of responses (160!) and ran it through an RNG 4 times to make this fair. Congratulations to @whereBeWaldo@lemmy.dbzer0.com @SoaringDE@feddit.de @notdeadyet@lemmy.dbzer0.com and @myersguy@lemmy.simpl.website

http://wiki.torrentleech.org/doku.php/everything_about_invites

Invites are for giving to people you know and trust. Don't invite random people.

🤔

(I'm not saying it's good or bad. And I assume you made a conscious decision on it.)

thanks for ruining the party 😕

yes, I'm aware. As I said I don't 'know and trust' anyone IRL who would use this, so I'm offering them to people in the community who will hopefully use them responsibly. I'll coach any of those chosen if they're unsure and of course point them in the direction of the (very comprehensive) wiki.

Yeah just be careful, Torrentleech has been know to ban the guy inviting people who fail to follow the rules. So maybe do a rule pop quiz or something? Or ask how they plan to build ratio since that isn't exactly super easy on TL.

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Huh? It cant be easier. With just a 2TB drive and 2 years I collected 8TB in upload on this tracker alone.
This is one of the easiest if you can seed 24/7

[–] ninjan@lemmy.mildgrim.com 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And I'm saying that's a big if.

[–] Imprint9816@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago

Pretty much all their big files are free leech. Start with a few popular to build ratio.

[–] CheekyYoghurts@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Don't know what you're talking about regarding ratio... TL have by far the most generous freeleech out there. Just grab lots of freeleech and after 10 days your ratio will be high. It's comical how easy it is to get high ratio on that site.

[–] ninjan@lemmy.mildgrim.com 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Sure if you use a seedbox or have a port forward VPN and a good connection. If you have a free VPN without port forward or just a slow connection then you won't be able to seed much due to everyone finishing their downloads super fast. Then building ratio can be really hard. Either way if you go in there just downloading the movies / games etc you want and leave them on to seed you won't, generally reach even 0.8 ratio. You need a strategy be that build ratio for days / weeks using the freeleech stuff or set up rss download of torrents for popular shows such that you get in on the seeding action early etc.

Edit: I've been a member for 14 years, I've seen countless people fail to maintain a good ratio despite trying.

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sounds like it's not the issue of the tracker at all. Just invest in a small seedbox either self hosted or get a proper non-free vpn. Not exactly rocket science...

[–] ninjan@lemmy.mildgrim.com 3 points 1 year ago

And I agree, I have multiple TB both ways but if he gives away invites to whomever don't expect them to have seedboxes / a good torrent VPN etc without asking. It's hard if you're the person who only downloads the movies they want to watch and haven't ever thought about seeding more than leaving the torrent on for a few days. That "works" on RARBG style sites but of course doesn't work on a tracker like TL which bans permanently and do not give a fuck about your reasons.

That would be nice, never used a private tracker before. I see people talking about some rules, I am not aware of them honestly so it would be nice of you to educate me on those if you decide to chose me, don't wanna be an arse unknowningly.

[–] counselwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago

I have some free invites to some private servers as well (mainly BakaBT for anime/manga stuff and MyAnonamouse for anything books)

But inviting someone that wouldn't have a good ratio is bad, right?

[–] Strayce@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago

I'll take one if they're still going

[–] Colour_me_triggered@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

If still available, I'm interested.

[–] mzesumzira@leminal.space 2 points 1 year ago

I'll try as well. Thank you either way, it's a nice gesture.

[–] iHUNTcriminals@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Me too please!

[–] anisphia@ani.social 2 points 1 year ago

i'm interested :3

maybe try asking if ur irl friends know torrenting, maybe they knew in secret

[–] skintt@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Count me in! I have a seedbox so building a good ratio isn't a problem.

[–] The_Manix@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

I would love one

[–] notdeadyet@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

I would love a torrent leech account! I'm a power user with great upload ratios on public trackers and have yet to be able to get into a private one!

[–] yemi@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

Hey, I'd definitely appreciate an invite! I know they're limited but hey, can't hurt to ask

[–] obre@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago
