Announcing PixelCove
We would hereby like to announce our new private
tracker, PixelCove.
PixelCove is a new games
tracker, focusing on user experience and keeping your data secure. While our site itself is not yet ready for launch, our
IRC is now open, so come chat with us! Below is some more info about us, to give you an idea of how we plan on running things.
Objective
Our primary objective is security. We will only store the data that is relevant to us and required to operate our
tracker. The data we do store will be stored securely in a way that would make it very hard, if not impossible, for anyone outside of our ops team to access. All our traffic is encrypted, no exceptions.
Staff
We have a group of experienced staff that we feel is going to be able to keep things running smoothly. Our staff is held to very high standards and we have a proper hierarchy in place to prevent any internal disputes. If you would like to join our staff team, hop on
IRC and tell us about your experience!
Torrents
While we won't have any data to start with, we hope to get up and running quickly. Our users will have access to tools to automatically pull information from GOG and Steam for more recent games, and we will be working on adding more sources to this over time. We
aim to make uploading as easy as possible while still upholding proper upload rules, ensuring a smooth experience for both the uploader and people browsing the torrents.
UGC
As part of our staff team is made up out of ex-
UGC staff members, and the downfall of
UGC was what prompted us to start a new
tracker, we will be allowing members from
UGC to sign up. As long as you have access to your
UGC email address, you will be able to automatically request an invite. In case there are any issues, we have our
IRC help channel where our staff members will help you sort things out.
Our sign-ups for
UGC members will last for 6 months. After this period, anyone looking to sign up will need to be invited by someone they know personally, or one of our official recruiters in the designated threads on other
trackers.
We hope this gets you all as excited as we are, and we hope to open our doors soon. You can find the details for our
IRC on our website. More information about our official opening will follow on our
website
Code:
