that's why god and some other human beings created iptorrents, torrentday, filelist, pretome and sometimes sceneaccess.

It might not seed straight away but it will in time
Even if you are a newbie it always works ;)

thanks for that tip. I'm just wondering if TL is such a smart idea to get into, if you have to resort to tricks from outside the tracker to gain a decent ratio and build an account. I should be able to do that by using the system itself responsibly. To me this is a pretty perverted way of using the bt-protocol.

@RoeiM (original poster): could it be related to the tracker being down? They seem to have some uptime issues in the past few days.

When starting on TL you need to slightly buffer your account via cross seeding first then download something very small this way you will have a ratio that will remove your wait times then you can start seeding/downloading normally. its highly recommended to jump on new torrents as soon as they are uploaded and you must be really fast in doing that since others use RSS in combination with very fast seedboxes they almost instantly grab the files and its harder to seed back if you jump on late.

You won't need to cross seed after you get out of waiting times, you can do it if you like but it won't be really necessary, I think TL in general shouldn't be joined by anyone without a seedbox, just use many of the other easier to seed general trackers or unless you have a very fast fiber home connection I guess.

i wanted so bad TL back at then, but now i'm just looking. looking and thinking: why god? why the hell this tracker even exist? -ok, now i'm being too much dramatic but, seriously, wait times, no freeleeches, no bonus points, no nothing... why does someone wastes his/her time with trackers like that?
if you are interested in mainstream torrents -regular movie/tv/game/music- td is looking at you with all ease of seeding or getting an acceptable ratio. if you are looking for a larger tracker, ipt is waiting for you. and sceneaccess has sh!tloads of archive stuff at archive section (duh!) -also freeleech.
i still don't get the hype with torrentleech.
