Hey props to you for acknowledging it, we all have our moments!
I definitely feel you on how frustrating it can be sometimes to access information in the piracy community, both due to potential legal repercussions and to a certain insularity. Pirates don't always want to share the cool new thing, because sometimes when too many people start knowing about the cool new thing, corporations will also learn about the cool new thing and want to shut it down.
1337x.to has been my go-to for a while, I rarely fail to find what I'm looking for there!
Echoing what this person said! ^
You essentially said "this", but with more words. Please add more to the discussion by sharing your thoughts on what he said instead of echoing.
Your policing of conversation isn't really adding to the discussion either, is it? You could just downvote, or better yet, ignore it and move on.
No, it is adding to the conversation because I am providing feedback to improve their comment which can contribute to the discussion. Ignoring and moving on is what enabled reddit to turn to shit.
Yeah if there's one thing reddit lacked, it was people in the comments taking a moral stand on some issue at everyone else's expense.
It's not adding to the originally conversation, it's starting a new one.
You're right; I deserve the downvote.
RARBG was the peak but 1337x is still okay despite them constantly listing fake seed/leech numbers. I've ranked it just above TPB in sonarr/radarr after they've grabbed numerous files with '30 seeders' that wind up sitting idle in QBit for days without seeders until I delete it and blacklist the release because they don't update their counts.
