does torrent reactor bring you to scam sites?
    #11436944 - 11/11/09 08:53 PM (14 years, 4 months ago)

fuck man... so I'm lookin for a torrent... a very hard to find torrent, and since demonoid is fucked :sad:... I've been lookin at other sites, piratebay doesn't have it

I just signed up with torrentreactor.com because it says it has my torrent... but then I click on the link and it takes me to 'usenet' which to me seems identical to the scam site a similar site brought me to that i fell for.. ripped me off 5 bucks or so... good thing I canceled before I got charged the 50$ a month after the 'free trial' ended

I was told torrentreator is a legit site... but I'm really thinkin it's not.... or at least scam sites are using it as bait or something

am I right??... I'm not fuckin paying for a decent torrent site and gettin ripped off again

Get Vuze.  It's amazing, and completely free.  It's a type of torrent.  Download entire discographies in a few hours.

is this an actual torrent site like demonoid?... or the same thing as bittorent/utorrent, like the actual program you need for downloading torrents in the first place

Oh, hum, I'm not sure.  I downloaded it, and now I can download full discographies.  No more work to do.  It's an actual downloading program.

I think vuze just searches many torrent sites for what your looking for and then downloads them, still in the same manor, just with an interface that resembles the P2P days of Kazaa/LimeWire

Vuze sucks balls.

use a real torrent application (uTorrent, Transmission, Deluge, etc). vuze is bloated and power hungry.

streamline youre shit man..

Bloated and powerhungry?  What does that even mean?  It downloads stuff.  It has to be humble as it downloads your music?  Grab another torrent if you want.  Vuze works fine for me though.

Yeah, I quite like it.  2 hours for 17 Grateful Dead albums.  It downloads them into a Grateful Dead folder.  Inside each folder is another folder for each album.  Each song is correctly tagged for windows media player.  All I could ask for. :P

I guess I'm a torrent noob.  You have to get a torrent, and then find torrent sites for your torrent to download from?  Too much work for me, but if it works better for you, awesome.  I'm lazy though. :laugh:

http://torrents.to/

That site searches like 15 of the popular trackers.

Once You search it will have a menu at he top of the browser and it will take you to another torrent site with your search term already put in.

It's pretty sweet.

Ooh, ok.  That makes sense.  I usually do it while I'm in class or sleeping though.  Yeah, I'm not advertising Vuze or anything.  Only torrent I've ever used so there could be much better things out there.

Uhh.

No offense but do you actually know anything about torrents?

Vuze is a client (used to be Azureus) that you use to download torrents.

And yes, since Vuze uses Java it uses a shitload of power. I've always used it because when I started uTorrent didn't have a Mac version (not sure if it does now.) I'd recommend uTorrent over anything else.

Yeah, I found it a few years ago and have never stopped using it.

They add and take away trackers as the gain or loose popularity.

It also went through a massive face lift recently, it's a little buggy and slow now, but still convenient.



and OP a lot of popular sites will have "sponsored" torrents which will take you to a scam site, you have to scroll down until you see something like results, or search results, something like that.  Don't ever click anything that says it's sponsored when searching for torrents.

I meant more like setting up all my seeded torrents to seed there and shit.
I'm sure all I have to do is fucking right click once or twice.

But I know how to make torrents in Azureus, I'm familiar with the interface, I'll just stick with it.

I use utorrent as well. As for a torrent site I find btjunkie.org to always have a better selection then other sites. I used to use mininova.com, but found btjunkie to have a lot of stuff that they dont, and also has more seeders.
Also btjunkie.org doesnt have those annoying "sponsored results" at the top that take you to scam sites like torrent reactor does.
