This is one of my most used trackers. The quality of scene releases is enough for me so i get most movies and tv shows from here. Now that the wait times are removed new users will find it easier to maintain a decent ratio. Always try to cross seed files from other trackers if you are finding it difficult to get some upload. Seed everything as long as you can to go above 1.0 ratio. Ads were never a problem for me as they can be blocked easily. I use ublock origin and when i see an add i right click the image and click block element.
