FileServe is officially dead now as well

lol, people still using browser-based downloads? What we need is good firewalls and actually seeding torrents rather then leeching, it always was and always will be better. All I need is my list of torrent sites and I'm set, hosting sites can die for all I care, it's obsolete tech.

People won't seed though. Only the newest files get seeded. That's why browser based downloads were important. So you could download items that weren't seeded as much anymore.

that's complete bullshit.

Why? Do you mind to elaborate on that?
Hyro-Sama is damn right

How so? Care to explain? People don't seed. Maybe they seed for you _Prowler b/c you're part of a private tracker but some of us aren't so lucky. Screw off.

Clearly neither of you has ever used a Ratio-Based Torrent System, where you can only download if you Seed. Imposed, but it works, and speeds NEVER decrease to undesirable levels.

Well, in France, they can block your internet connection because of warez peer to peer download, see HADOPI.
They are watching emule and torrent websites.

In Japan, at least 1 uploader gets arrested every other week in a single month and sometimes every week for that month. You only hear the ones that uploaded anime though but there's slightly more. Also, you never hear of the verdict outside of a Japanese website unless they uploaded something else that's actually illegal unrelated to the piracy (CP which is stated in reports as "obscene materials").

so in short ,the entire world is turning on it's people, the US used to be a safe haven for freedoms and being able to do things that other countries forbid on the internet (france's 5 strikes rule)...

but now the US is going the same way, and there is no place to hide...running to Japan won't save you

oh!..and if you run to Japan...you have to have a RFID (Radio Frequency ID) "enhanced" passport to leave....that way you can't completely run away from US

Torrents ftw. Never failed me once yet!

The Ratio-Based Torrent System I use has a minor flaw. A lot of people take the most popular porn file and seed only that, meaning thar everyone else builds a large ratio whilst useful files are seeded by very few people

Read my comment. Not everyone can be part of a private tracker. The only way is invites and people are clingy with those.

There are Ratio-Based communities that are not private, but for legal reasons I cannot provide you with any links.

No comment. You don't know what I usually download, what you're saying is an assumption, and it doesn't make much sense anyways.

This is just an overreaction by these sites and people on this forum and across the internet. In a couple of months to a year, I predict megaupload will be back online. With the high powered lawyer they have and the fact it will be so hard to prove they weren't doing the same level of policing that many other sites were, they will win their case. The only thing that could prevent that would be new legislation like SOPA or PIPA.

We kinda jumped on Hyro here, yeah. It does appear that he had something else in mind, he's not bashing torrents as a whole, he's just saying that "good" torrents are sort of "elitist", which is partially true, since it's hard to find "the" definitive site for "you" when it comes to those.

At least someone on this forum can read.

 

[blahkamehameha]

it's good i took the time to download files from fileserve last night.

last night i said the golden age of piracy was over, but some were doubting. i think this is enough to fully convince everyone?

Again, download everything now while you can. Soon torrents will be the only way to pirate, but you know that's going to be targeted, since 95% of torrent usage is for piracy

 

[arogance1]

Why not upload to sites with a random string of letters and numbers to get around digital fingerprints? They'd have to dl all files to check for illegals

The Ratio-Based Torrent System I use has a minor flaw. A lot of people take the most popular porn file and seed only that, meaning thar everyone else builds a large ratio whilst useful files are seeded by very few people

This issue is countered on some sites by counting the Ratio out of numerous files seeded/leeched rather then as a single variable.

Effectively each file can give you a score, say, from 0 to 10, 10 being seeding non-stop. The average "Ratio" is counted out of all the files you've ever downloaded though, so this one "10" won't help you much. It effectively counts the "proper" Ratio out of all files that you've ever downloaded/uploaded, which is more then fair.

You're generalizing your experience with torrents which is why I called it bullshit.
