torrent leech alternatives?

Got banned from torrent leech after uninstalling theyr broken cracked softwares that i couldnt manage to run properly, dropping my ratio above 0.4... that's a shame, my qbittorrent ratio is 5 and i quite seed anything untill i need more space on the drives. Any (free of course) alternatives ?

  • Man the general trackers are such a shit show. Back in the day I had my TL ratio drop randomly and I logged in just to see there were a bunch of downloads logged to my account that weren't me. Went in their IRC to point it out their shit was fucked and they got all defensive and tried to make it seem like I was trying to pull something malicious on them. I just quit the site out of spite after that and went inactive.

    Then I joined IPT which is sketch af, but then one day I just logged in to find my account was deleted and they wanted money or some shit to get a new one, so naturally I was outta there.

    .. Now I just dont have a general tracker.. I guess I should be paying attention to the suggestions here too lol

    PS
    I miss SCC

    • Interesting, I've had an account with IPT for almost 12 years now and I've had no problems at all. What makes you say it's sketchy?

        • Owner and staff known to be questionable assholes
        • They did questionable stuff to try and make it to the top like astroturfing with fake accounts and stealing peers from other trackers
        • They were one of first to start charging for signups
        • The fact they state that they delete accounts and your only option is to make a new one
        • Around the time they started charging a lot of people like myself found our accounts mysteriously gone and them wanting us to pay to get on the site again (I remember being pissed and going to reddit to complain and reading similar stories there)
        • Basically the site is really scummy and did whatever they had to do to become big so that they could make money and grift the community and is not inline with the principals most other private tracker communities promote.
        • IPT Browser..
        • They had a $5/ticket raffle that it's believed the winners were fake IPT accounts

        Honestly, I could probably keep this up all day if I kept thinking about it but imma stop here.
