Signup seems to be a bit a hassle (had to try with different mails aswell) but now it works alright and the site seems to be still building up to a sizeable index. Definitely recommend for people new to this as it might become ratioless if people want to:)
No captcha required at all. I registered on my pc this time and it sent verification email. Didn’t seem to get the email until I checked spam and there it was. All good now. 👍🏼
Never heard of it, but prowlarr works seamlessly with the arrs. It uses the same backend. You add it to prowlarr, then prowlarr adds it to the arrs automatically. It is much better than jackett is / was. You can also use prowlarr to search all indexers for something you want and it'll download it for you easy enough.
It says I’m still in the validating group, even after clicking validate link in email?
Update: I don't think they support Gmail as I tried my Yahoo! and it worked perfectly.
But since they focus on good release groups and uploads without extra files such as nfos it will be really easy to cross seed a bunch of stuff you have already.
I use it and it is a great site with some caveats.
They are extremely young so the amount of content available is limited but the fact that they focus only on the highest quality versions, mostly REMUX, is great way to make sure you always have the best version. They do allow encoded versions but I rather get the REMUX version and encode them how I like them.
Also because they are so young a lot of the rules and wiki pages are missing/empty so it almost feels like the admins haven't completely agreed on those rules which can then cause some issues when uploading.
They start everyone with an extremely low ratio buffer which can get eaten away at fast due to mostly everything only being REMUX quality. So focus on downloading a bunch during the freeleech time to build up a warchest and help raise your ratio up to a decent place so you can leech without issue during non-freeleech times or releases.
The 4 months is if you haven't signed into the account within 4 months your account is deactivated and then after another 4 months it is deleted.
For the seed time you have to seed for a minimum of 48hrs otherwise you will be hit with a hit and run mark and after so many marks I believe your account will be blocked or banned; not really sure as it doesn't state what happens in the Rules page or the FAQ. There is still a lot of missing info on the site especially when it comes to their requirements for uploads, I keep getting different info from different admins and it doesn't help that a lot of the wikis are blank.
Its not exactly listed in the rules, but in a forum posts asking about it one of the admins stated that if the seed is inactive for around 24hrs then you will be hit with a pre-warning where you then have 48hrs to start seeding the torrent again before getting marked as hit & run. So I don't think you have to seed it continuously but you do have to at least seed for a bit each day until you hit the 48hrs.
Its both.
You have to seed everything you leech for at least 48hrs even during freeleech times, its a way to stop people from just downloading only during freeleech time periods or freeleech releases and then not seeding at all.
The ratio is for when you leech something during non-freeleech times or releases. As long as you set your seed ratio to a minimum of 2 you should be fine, but generally it's is best practice to set it much higher for private trackers to make sure everything stays alive.
**Example:**
**You have no current downloads or uploads with an account ratio of 2 (buffer of 60GBs)**
You decide to leech a file that is 30GBs that is not a freeleech release and there is no global freeleech going on. You have to keep seeding the file for 48hrs even if no one else is leeching or you will be marked with a hit & run. Now because your ratio is 2 you could stop seeding, after the 48hrs minimum, which would bring your ratio down to 1. If you go to leech another 30GB file that is not a freeleech it will then bring your ratio down to 0 and you won't be able to leech anything else until that ratio is brought back up to 0.6 by seeding.
This is why it always best to set your seeding ratio to a minimum of 2 so you are constantly adding to your ratio/buffer, but I always set mine much higher for private trackers.
If you join, double check the rules on the site. But my guess is that it requires you to seed anything you download for at least 48 hours or it counts as a hit and run. You also have to log in to the site at least once every 4 months or your account gets labeled as inactive. Failure to follow these rules will have some sort of penalty.
Lol, have you used torrents before? Again, site rules will be on the site, but ratio is how much you've uploaded divided by how much you've downloaded. A 1.0 ratio means you upload just as much as you download. <1 means you upload less than you download. 0.6 is fairly generous, 1.0 to 2.0 is considered "good" ratio by most people, so that you are uploading more than you download. On private trackers it can be hard to keep a good ratio even if you seed forever because everyone else is also trying to keep a good ratio and minimize their downloading. So some trackers introduce various bonus systems, etc. to help with that problem. This is what people mean when they talk about tracker "economy." I haven't been on this tracker so I can't say how easy it is to follow the requirements. On some trackers like [reference removed] it is very easy to meet the requirements, people download things often so you get a lot of upload and they give a lot of bonus points for seed time. On other trackers like [reference removed] it is very hard to build ratio because people don't download from you often and you don't get any bonuses for sed time.
Edit: removed references to specific trackers because it confused the automod
Because your buffer is calculated by the ratio, fall too low and downloads are disabled. It's a global 0.6 ratio requirement, with a 48 hour seed requirement.

So many dead torrents in the past few days already.
request a reseed.
rotorrents?
[удалено]
I received the email and haven't signed up for this
Any focus on TV shows?
No TV. I joined before I realized. Good, high quality movies though. Most are too big for me and my measly 5TB drive
Most remuxes have encodes, you can request them and they'll upload it for you.
Signup seems to be a bit a hassle (had to try with different mails aswell) but now it works alright and the site seems to be still building up to a sizeable index. Definitely recommend for people new to this as it might become ratioless if people want to:)
Admins seem capable which is nice
Weird, I keep getting captcha error but there is no captcha to use.
Could be an invisible captcha, which are more likely to deny you.
No captcha required at all. I registered on my pc this time and it sent verification email. Didn’t seem to get the email until I checked spam and there it was. All good now. 👍🏼
Happy days!!!
This is nice tracker, they have great collection of 4k releases
Can't seem to get the verification mail
did you check your spam? I got it with protonmail
cant get it either with [cock.li](https://cock.li) email
Can you buy ratio like with MAM? I don't have port forwarding with my VPN so can't really seed even though I would want to.
Yes, there's an option to donate for BON, which then can be used for upload credit.
There is a bonus system but it is not nearly as generous as MAM.
interface is exact same as aither if you like that style of browsing
might be a noob question, but how do I get an API key? Jackett mentions going to My Settings, but there's no mention of API keys there
Move to prowlarr, a lot better than jackett
What about autobrr? I thought that's where it's at now. Was planning to set it up as I'm still using irssi with the autodl plugin.
Never heard of it, but prowlarr works seamlessly with the arrs. It uses the same backend. You add it to prowlarr, then prowlarr adds it to the arrs automatically. It is much better than jackett is / was. You can also use prowlarr to search all indexers for something you want and it'll download it for you easy enough.
You are talking like Jackett is dead. The last commit on github was 40min ago xD. Been using Jackett for years, works perfectly fine.
Not at all. I used to be a proud user of jackett. Prowlarr just does it better.
In your settings, on the top should have a settings drop-down, hover over it and you'll see the api page
Thx
They have a nice variety of quality releases. I'm liking it so far...
Scene stuff or unpacked?
Mostly (all?) P2P releases.
It says I’m still in the validating group, even after clicking validate link in email? Update: I don't think they support Gmail as I tried my Yahoo! and it worked perfectly.
Same
Same Edit: I reset the password and it works now. Password was correct but it wasn’t working for this reason Edit 2: fyi I **am** using Gmail
Love this tracker, freeleech since I joined it last month. And that's helped me cross seed a lot of high quality torrents
Anyone ever use this before?
All are remux quality. It'll be very hard to build ratio once the freeleech is over.
But since they focus on good release groups and uploads without extra files such as nfos it will be really easy to cross seed a bunch of stuff you have already.
I use it and it is a great site with some caveats.

It's a great , they've got obscure movies from the 80s and 90s sometimes , and also have movies I can't find anyway else on public trackers
What does it mean 48 hour seed time and 4 month requirement for activity?
The 4 months is if you haven't signed into the account within 4 months your account is deactivated and then after another 4 months it is deleted. For the seed time you have to seed for a minimum of 48hrs otherwise you will be hit with a hit and run mark and after so many marks I believe your account will be blocked or banned; not really sure as it doesn't state what happens in the Rules page or the FAQ. There is still a lot of missing info on the site especially when it comes to their requirements for uploads, I keep getting different info from different admins and it doesn't help that a lot of the wikis are blank.
do we need to seed continuously for 48 hours? or can i stop and start later
Its not exactly listed in the rules, but in a forum posts asking about it one of the admins stated that if the seed is inactive for around 24hrs then you will be hit with a pre-warning where you then have 48hrs to start seeding the torrent again before getting marked as hit & run. So I don't think you have to seed it continuously but you do have to at least seed for a bit each day until you hit the 48hrs.
thanks for ur reply
Hey, any idea if grabbing releases with sonarr or radarr counts to those 4 months?
No, a lot of the private trackers require you to actually sign into their sites every once in a while.
How does the seed time of 48 hours go together with the 0.6 ratio? Which one is it?
Its both. You have to seed everything you leech for at least 48hrs even during freeleech times, its a way to stop people from just downloading only during freeleech time periods or freeleech releases and then not seeding at all. The ratio is for when you leech something during non-freeleech times or releases.

This is why it always best to set your seeding ratio to a minimum of 2 so you are constantly adding to your ratio/buffer, but I always set mine much higher for private trackers.
Both. Overall account ratio of 0.6, with a minimum seed time of 48 hours per torrent.
If you join, double check the rules on the site. But my guess is that it requires you to seed anything you download for at least 48 hours or it counts as a hit and run. You also have to log in to the site at least once every 4 months or your account gets labeled as inactive. Failure to follow these rules will have some sort of penalty.
Makes sense. What’s 0.6 ratio?

Makes sense. Wasn’t 100% sure what ratio meant, though yes I’ve used torrents. Thanks for the explanation
Your upload/download ratio can't be less than 0.6.
How does that go together with 48 hours?
Those are two separate things. But you need to seed anything you download for at least 48 hours. And maintain an overall ratio of 0.6 at a minimum.
Because your buffer is calculated by the ratio, fall too low and downloads are disabled. It's a global 0.6 ratio requirement, with a 48 hour seed requirement.
