A T-I theme to match maybe?
my suggestion is if we have a list of trackers divided into groups based on their level and indicating whether they are open are not will be better than the current method of new posts for each tracker whether they are open or not.....the current method is also good
i think there are many more trackers open at this time than indicated by the system
As with torrent searches, perhaps they could be given searchable categories. If a tracker is of general interest, file under general. More specific trackers could be classified by specialization (sports, movies, tv, pr0n, etc...).
Make it list-able as latest open so that those appear first.
Make it list-able by percentage open. Those that are open 100% of the time have "less" value than those open 5% of the time. Listing those first might be interesting.
Lol, is the bot always gonna post a new thread here everytime a tracker becomes open? That's gonna take up a lot of space over time, no?
some trackers are down PERMANENTLY >>> remove them from the list
some trackers have been MOVED (like pretome) >>> edit/update the links
in any case, trackers with " ! " and " x " in front of them should be watched after. for example: BlackZ.ro is now a blog ! xD
I honestly don't like this posting new threads every time one opens, isn't it just being relayed from Open-Trackers.net anyway?
i think it WAS relayed at the beginning. if you see the last page, you can see clearly that the "system" has created bitsoup, nordic-t and pornbay threads, one for OPEN and one for CLOSED.
i dont know if his automated or a real person but in any case, bitsoup opens and closes atleast 5 times a day. if its automated, the treads would flood the sub-forum.
the whole opentrackers sub forum should be closed and automated. all the trackers should have a personal thread (just like review´ forum). if the tracker is open, the "system" should post under the right thread. people could read, if they really want, but they are NOT allowed to reply !
Well we can do this. Have a bot called "OpenTrackers" or such. Pre make threads. Then the bot, who is a moderator or has posting permissions on closed threads, bumps or posts that the said tracker is now open. Here is some sample code, on how to make a post which I found on vBulletin.org (Link: Create Posts - vBulletin.org Forum)
If you want I can develop it more, however I'm sure Ixius can handle this, easily. It's mostly a 10minute-ish job.HTML Code:<?php require_once('./global.php'); //assuming script is on the / directory. change it to the directory the file is in require_once('./includes/class_dm.php'); //read above require_once('./includes/class_dm_threadpost.php'); //read above $postdm = new vB_DataManager_Post($vbulletin, ERRTYPE_STANDARD); //makes a new vBulletin Datamanager, its like/is an API $threadid = '54224'; //thread id. make a switch between each tracker $botuserid = '1'; //change to the bot's userid $text = 'The tracker is now open for registrations! Better hurry!'; //the text the bot posts $threadinfo = fetch_threadinfo($threadid); $foruminfo = fetch_foruminfo($threadinfo['forumid']); $postdm->set_info('forum', $foruminfo); $postdm->set_info('thread', $threadinfo); $postdm->set('threadid', $threadid); $postdm->set('userid', $botuserid); $postdm->set('pagetext', $text); $postdm->set('allowsmilie', 1); $postdm->set('visible', 1); $postdm->set('dateline', TIMENOW); $postdm->save(); //posts it unset($postdm); ?>
(Stupid [code] tags doesn't show linebreaks)
-------------------------------------
Aside from that, how about we remove some dead sites. Like FollowTheWhiteRabbit? And remove secret tracker URL's like FTN?
