You’ve seen the forums dedicated to news articles, stories, and blogs that are for the most part, dedicated towards the tracker and p2p scene. These factions started as any small town newspaper would, eagerly reporting the events that everyone saw as news. And then, as any publication, they gathered a following, a movement of sorts, and grew into advertisements, features, commentaries, the list just goes on. And what we have today has matured to the threshold of documentary in some cases….and pure tabloids on the other.
When one reads these tabloids now, they are subjected to as much fact as they are fiction, and bias as counterpose to fairness. As a tracker you stand judged, categorized, rated, and measured by these third-party side liners who cast their opinions with the authority of a doctrine on the subject. “This tracker is number one”…”this tracker is the hardest to get into”… Don’t drink Pepsi, drink Coke. Seriously are you so easily influenced that you view the entirety of life from an armchair? Do you get your medical advice from blogs too? Our system is literally plagued with armies of these invertible geniuses, richly educated from advertisement driven deadlines on tabloid syndications.
The truly successful FileSharing News Agency will in the end, be the one that works WITH the tracker community. Not the ones that engage in paparazzi antics to land their stories. Journalist know they have to build a relationship with their subject if they want the “inside” stories. It is not possible to get on the inside if you are constantly alienating yourself.
I think most trackers generally don’t give a damn what people say about them. A few with strong privacy concerns may be annoyed at a few shitty members that apparently managed to sneak in, but the rest probably don’t care at all. People are free to think as they will – the real members know the truth.
Trackers are of different genres just like music.First analyse what kind of person you are.Are you in for pretimes or content,specialised content or community?
Just because a tracker has a small member base and “hard” to get into (…….) dosent mean anything.Why would someone who dosent listen to trance wanna be in a trance tracker?why does someone who dosent love community wanna be in a community oriented tracker?
its because of humans most basic nature=Bragging rights.
And one thing everyone must realise is that.Trackers are not started to be 1337 in mind (*cough*).Just like you have friends in real life,certain trackers want to form a friends circle in net and have fun.If I am your friend then surely I will invite you to my circle of friends.What I meant is Dont make friends for getting into trackers but it is with your friends that you can enjoy piracy with.
