Default Gonna need another BitTorrent tracker

Both tracker1 and tracker2 are being overloaded, so we need to introduce a third tracker into the mix.

We could use a public one, but I'd rather use a private or semi-private one for stability and such.

Thoughts? Ideas? Anyone able to run one?

As much as I hate having to keep a seeding ratio up on a private tracker I wouldn't mind doing so for these torrents.

We could run a private tracker, allow forum users only- which is kinda risky.
Or use TPB trackers..

I'm not new here, but I don't post often, would it be possible to get a private Tracker? Plus, I noticed that download speeds are not too fast. I checked with my ISP and all seems to be good on my side!?

I usually download at night, when it's very early in Europe.

+1 to the "why is forum only risky?" comment. But I think a seed ratio bit is better. Mine is over 6.0 so it would make me happy.

Waaaaait, let's back up here and let me clarify.

I don't want to go to private torrents and we won't be. By private, I merely meant FinalGear.com-only and not using something like The Pirate Bay. I'd like a little more control over it than some random tracker -- i.e. we know who the owner is and can contact them if there's hardware issues.

Again, I'm not suggesting ratios, registration, etc. I don't want that.

Temporarily added a new tracker to the dns, so it will share traffic with tracker1.

Next trackers that are added should use tracker1/2/3/etc..

Also, if anyone wants to donate some bandwidth as a tracker:

You need the following:
Port 6969 open (or any for DHT/Tracker)
Azureus
5-10KB/sec upload bandwidth to spare

Give us a shout if you want to help.

And be in a country in Europe probably, although these are just TV shows and not movies/music/etc.
