hey charlie i was wondering what torrent sites do you visit? Do you have any recos? And what in the world is darknet? Can you sign up for it, is it like a private torrent tracker or what? If you need an invite can i get one?

I only really use three sites for torrents nowadays, but unfortunatly due to their membership requirements, if I talked about em, i’d get banned. Darknet are the sites for filesharing that are so secure from public knowledge and access that they are considerd to be dark, or unseeable. With these sites you could actually go to their main web page and all you would see are messages like perhaps “under construction”, or what seems to be a website devoted to spam, or hell, I even saw one where the page just came up completly blank. However, when your a registerd member, you can see the login screen and then get access to the site via that way. They pretty much only open the site to new members via invites and referrals from well established members, and usually even then your under strict guidlines to not invite or request a new member unless you know them fairly well. It wouldnt do anyone any good if an mpaa or riaa floozie gained access to the site, although there are a few things put in place if something like that does happen. Currently I have no invites available to dish out. Most places only give you 2-5, and I used thoes on close friends quite some time ago. Your best bet is to poke around and look for private trackers that occasionally allow open registrations. Get in to one of thoes, mett som epeople, and chances are, if you’ve managed to upload enough stuff, someone will offer you access to the better spots. The darknet sites usually have the latest torrents up hours or even days before any of the public trackers, and speeds tend to be really good.
Of course all this is a mute point to me. If you really want access to super fast shit, and plently of content, then newsgroups are the way to go. Seeing as they are probbably the most secure way to get content, it makes it easy to spend money on them. I used to have a service that was only 15 dollars a month for unlimited access, and I believe they still offer it. I switched to a service that charges 25 a month, but only beacuse they happen to work better with my particular isp and connection speeds. The old one had issues with my provider that tehy couldnt fix. If you’d like to know more about that, hit me up at pod2peer@gmail.com, i’d be happy to tell ya about it via email. - CJ

hey charlie u said you will get banned from the darknet site that u visit if you talked about it right. Being me i always search for lupols. So tell me about other darknet sites that you are not a member of. I’m a member of demonoid which is a kickass private tracker. And i don’t have a credit card for reasons that i won’t discuss so i can’t get into news groups. sad to say. If you could tell me by email about those sites i guess that won’t be devoulging them out loud.

or if anyone needs a demonoid invite
