this is how someone (prolli an ex) in the h/w & s/w forums thinks about local torrents and their keepers...;)

It's a bunch of 21 year olds with big traffic cop syndrome peddling ****e that you don't want to download - even with your local local cap. The quality and quantity is crap and the anal "first rule of fight club" atmosphere is pervasive throughout - god forbid that you utter anything that can me misconstrued as criticism against these keepers of the free world ethernet. You are typically so busy trying to adhere to the myriad of ridiculous rules that it is possible to completely miss the fact that there is actually **** all of interest to download.

The typical scenario is as follows. End of the month. You need to use up your local bandwidth. You search the local torrents. You realise there is FA of interest. You have a brainwave. You sort the torrents by seeders. The most seeded torrent is House with 27 seeders. You don't like House. As a matter of fact, you're not here for a TV series stuff. The most seeded files after a TV series is the procreation of the endangered Redfur bird from Chile, 3 hours compressed into a glorious Xvid file of 240Mb at 300x160 resolution. With 2 seeders.

Bottom line: except for maybe TV series stuff and cum in my pants I'm a f*cking ninja blah blah blah, forget about SA torrents and use news servers.

Been a member of almost every new bittorrent sites that pops up and down in SA...except for those "NINJA N00bs" somewhere in Cape Town, and got nothing interesting from them...when something interesting comes up, ONCE IN A BLUE MOON, there might be a few seeds...you seem to be the exception.

maybe the fact that the most seeded torrent (according to the d**s) is only 27 seeds says a lot. i suspect they see it as some sort of fraternity.

OK OK, maybe it was slightly :)p) over the top, but we should all be forgiven one post while severely inebriated. :eek:

/note to self - sober up before posting

The d**s still stands by his point. There is an inverse relationship between the skulls and bones attitude and the quality and availability of content. I realise that other people may perceive it differently, but generally speaking I think local torrents are largely a waste of time.

No, not at all true. Sure, they might be strict, but they are not a-holes about it. There is a reason for the strictness. Bandwidth costs us money and we don't want people using our bandwidth and not sharing. The fraternity is among those who are committed to sharing heavily.

Some of us have very high share ratios and we are very proud of it. It is nice to belong to a community like that.

And there is great stuff there to share. I'm not gonna list it all here for obvious reasons, but the truth is I can't even get time to download everything I want. I just don't have the bandwidth or hard drive space.

I dunno which Torrent community you guys have belonged to in the past, but the one I am a member of is very cool! :)

just list it, we all know it is this (courtesy dansdata.com):D
Your, um, copyright-free MP3s of uplifting religious songs and, ah, video clips of fully clothed upstanding citizens doing nothing even slightly naughty

I have a similar problem: It's dreadfully slow (comparable to dial-up), my downstream data isn't showing on my page but my upstream data is.... :confused:
