this don’t sound good to me.
I like to find only torrents from folks I have gotten good results from. not just from anywhere.

glad to see Harvard get involed. where is their bt site? they must have one

Sorry, but once something takes off and everyone gets used to it, people are creatures of habit, we don’t like to change too much, once we’re stuck in our ways.

What facebook, which google?
How long shall they continue their farce?
Fret not, they’d soon be on their knees
And kiss your shiny red arse!

Millions of users you shall rule over
And you will serve them, over and over
With movies galore, and music great
And when no one’s watching,
A ‘wholesome’ sizzling p*@# plate ;-)

Key word searching and voting
Moderations and NAT traversing
Cool friends, hippin’ n’ hoppin’
Feasting on real time streamin’

With all these shall you provide
People (who) would go crazy in delight
You would be the apple of everyone’s eye
Your star would fly ever so high
Far above all the seven skies

Try tribler try!
Not far is the day
When you shall go high
Try tribler try!

:D… Tribler FTW!!

Pity the moron from there who posts here has yet to.

Real men use usenet. Yep, bring that up on your nest date (if you get any) – I’m sure she’ll love you for it.

Yeah, i’d like to see how they propose to do that. This is a terrible idea. I thought people that attend Harvard are smarter than that… hell, a bunch of internet junkies posting on a Torrent blog are smarter than that.

Since I have allways been a curious fellow, I gave that new thingy, called bittorrent, a shot, and found it quite odd indeed.

So here I am now, about 6 years later and guess what, that ´plague` has befallen me too, and I like it that way!

Tribler clearly seems to me like regression. I need to have a shared folder again? Oh come on! I will share what I want, when I want, to the the world. What´s the point of “sharing” 50 GB of data and have a few dozen ppl leech away at 2 kb/s each? Besides, I don´t want to hear the judge say to me: “Boy, you had 50 GBs worth of music, games and movies in your shared folder!”.
Thanks, but no thanks.

Why hijacking the bt protocol to build something like Troubler? What´s the point? Boost the speed of “friends”? Pfft. If you cap your upload too much, your download will suck ass, that´s the beauty about bt. And people who DO care about ratio will share their part, period.

And if I really really wanted to share with “friends”, well, there´s always dozens upon dozens of private sites.

So as long as there are moderated torrent sites (and I guess they will NOT vanish any time soon): What do we need Tribler for again?

TPB ftw!

ahaha ur such a noob stfu nobody cares.

People say it because they do rock.. whine all you want bitch there changin the world, your just sittin on your ass whining like a little bitch..

TPB is so awesome and im so excellent.

And that point is, BitTorrent if FU*KED as a system if it even requires the existence of members-only private trackers to operate successfully. You’re therefore advocating a broken system, not realizing that its very ‘underground’ nature is an admission of its utter failure as a valid means of distributing data.

Fu*k you and your private trackers. Real men use Usenet – Quality controlled, orders of magnitude faster, and a hell of a lot safer.

Flame away.

????? ?? ???? BitTorrent ??? ??????? ?????? ?????? ??????? ??????? ??????, ?????? ???? ?????? ??????? ?????? ??????? ???????. ???? ??????? ?? …

The files are shared from my computer to other people? – what assumes that list is up to date – and other search in my computer file list, like DC? isn’t that insecure…?

That made me skip all torrents when that block came on. So in one way, that was the most efficient way to stop p2p I have ever seen, and it had a negative effect on millions of users.

This solutino could solve that problem.

“so you find torrent files through peers, how do you find the peers in the first place?”

There’s a PDF document that describes the client here:

http://www.cs.unibo.it/~babaoglu/courses/cas/papers/pdf/tribler.pdf

The relevant part is:

“First, a TRIBLER peer automatically
uses a set of preknown
superpeers to bootstrap into the
network, immediately after installation. The peer contacts
one of the superpeers only once, upon entering the network,
in order to obtain an initial list of neighbors. Second, we define
a special overlay swarm. The overlay swarm is a swarm
with no tracker, and can be used for initial bootstrapping,
content discovery, and other information exchange”

…uh, so it still relies on connecting to known resources (I suppose some of these could be moving targets as long as at least one was still alive when you connected). I was worried they might be trying something ridiculous like scatter-gunning IP address ranges in the hope of finding listening peers.

Still a bad idea though.

All the newb retards that use crappy public trackers like TPB and mininova: did you know that there are NO fake files whatsoever at public trackers?

Amd that you will download as fast as your internet can download at many private trackers – because people use seedbox’s (remote servers) and also upload as much as they download or more?

Public trackers off such a pitiful BT experience and yet we still get useless, clueless comments such as : “TPB for the win” and “TPB is the best site ever” and “TPB +Utorrent is the bestest conbo evar!.

I hate it when morons yell crap and think theyre so excellent.
