    Well they have all game rips, all DVD(and blu-ray) rips(in avi and img format), TV series in either high or standard def(I downloaded all 9 seasons of x-files in about 2 days...72GB i think). There is adult material, mostly dvd rips. Music, windows, mac and linux apps and some ebooks. The forum isn't used much, you get credits for uploading and being idle on the mIRC channel. There are classes based on how long you've been there and how much you've uploaded. The higher the class the higher amount of download slots you can have. If you decide to have a terrible ratio, you will get demoted to thief and will only have 1 download slot. Alot of people put their stuff on seedboxes so it's usually a constant speed.

    If you need anything else, pm me or post it in here.

    I've never used supertorrents, so I cannot say.

    It's only fair to the people who are seeding stuff to you that you seed it back.

    I don't care about the torrent community's concept of fairness or entitlement. I just want to download, which is why I prefer Usenet.

    Wrong, truly private (ie, no invites, just a completely closed community) is how you get the best torrent speeds. None of the sites I know of like this have ever cared about ratios.

    Also, I'm pretty sure Usenet speeds are superior in every way.

    Didn't intend to turn this into a vs. debate. I just find it funny that people dealt with 1:1 ratios on ftps in the 90s, and now with exponentially faster connections people deal with it on a bandwidth aggregation protocol. It just boggles my mind.

    As an aside, this just reinforces my opinion that torrents are a poor medium for the downloader (although quite awesome for the providers).
