 |
|
I found this site yesterday and signed-up without an invite. I was surprised at the volume of traffic and the number of torrents.

Downloading some things now and the speeds are excellent. |

hmmm...I just logged out and clicked on sign-up. Type in the confirmation code. You should be good to go. Just pay attention to their unusual rules for site names and passwords. Took me a couple of tries since I wasn't paying attention. |

What's the confirmation code? Does that not mean invite code? |

I'll toss these here since I can never find the *trading* site.
I have 2 IP Torrents invites to whomever wants them. IP Torrents is a very large general tracker (low-level) with good overall speeds, loads of Freeleech stuff and reasonable ratio requirements.
If you're interested, please send me an e-mail.
nstick13 at gmail dot com
Do NOT offer a trade of any kind! Do NOT PM me about these.
Cheers!
Edit: Only have 2.

| 10 character pw that contains both uppercase and lowercase letters (they don't tell you about that part)... more bad design decisions. |

lol...check out the third post in this thread. I mentioned something about that... 
Anyways, you're in right? Like I said previously, it's a little unusual for a site with this many active torrents/users to have open sign-up. |

I'm in, but its a frustrating password that I may not remember. I have 2 passwords: a shorter one for forums (5-6 chars) and a longer one for more important stuff (banking etc).
I took a software design class in college. Over complicating a password can actually make it LESS secure because people need to write their passwords down. At the very least it cuts down usability. The standard for passwords is 8 chars mix letters and numbers for important things like credit cards. This, with a decent enough password will keep you safe from a brute force attack. Any more is an annoyance to the user with MAYBE minimal security gain. For a site that has no personal information, its absurd.
TheOatmeal has some very good comics on website coding. As he said: "If I want to make my password 'boobs' its my own shitty decision and you should let me roll with it".
Rant finished. |

Great! I just checked and sign-ups are still open. For people who have never tried a private tracker, here's your chance to join a good one.
It's free. Why not check it out? |
