Are any of these services trusted? Would a private tracker lock your account as soon as they figure out you bought your way in?

And can anybody vouch for or against [redacted]?

Edit: pretty sure the site I asked about is a scammer so I removed it so nobody goes there. I had completely misspelled the tracker name when contacting them and they didn't correct me.

It does not "cause no seeders". It just doesn't typically seed (although some do offer seedbox options). Its a leecher, like the millions of users who torrent without port forwarding or stop seeding after the file is complete.

For debrid users it doesn't matter. The PT try hards do all the seeding and the media itself is typically already cached on the debrid services servers.

My point being if your going to pay to access pirated content, buying a debrid service is a much better value then a PT invite or a standalone seedbox.

Welp...I better stop seeding public tracker content on nyaa for a ratio of 6:1 and just bail now.
Remember: If nobody seeds anymore, where will you get it by torrenting? At that point it's useless and you'll need to use either the interwebz or usenet.

Its like your only reading half the comment before you need to regurgitate random points about the importance of seeding, which is not at all the point. This should be obvious as I clearly stated the point.

You're (and the service) are a leech*
^* With an option to be only a semi-leech.

For debrid users it doesn't matter. The PT try hards do all the seeding and the media itself is typically already cached on the debrid services servers.

You leech from PT and then the media is cached (read: temporary. So how long? 2 weeks if it isnt popular?). So where are you getting the file from if not from me and other seeders keeping the torrent afloat?

My point being if your going to pay to access pirated content, buying a debrid service is a much better value then a PT invite or a standalone seedbox.

Seedbox? Maybe not $/h or GB. But entry to higher entry trackers (if that's what you are after.
If you are after small encodes or 720p YIFY encodes this aint it. At this point you might as well just stream from pirate websites because the quality is the same.
Nothing like a ctrlHD, FLUX, NTb encode but rather just, well, meh and blocky output.
PT invites? Agreed. The user will be banned either because they couldnt keep quiet or someone up the chain caught wind and banned the invite tree)

Sufficiently read your comment now?
