Thread: TorrentLeech (TL) Review

It's a Amazing Tracker,
But it hell difficult to start with a good ratio..

No Freeleech and Now Starting Upload Credit,
makes it tough to start off with...

Hi to all, i've a question about this tracker, they have also complete dvd's? or all the movies are rips?

Thanks in advance.

Malucho: you have all sorts of movies on TL: Foreign, XviD, HD-x264 (so the BlueRay!), Music Dvd, DVD-R, Retro and NonScene like BRRip-XviD and BRRip-x264.
Hope that help you.
cheers

Tough to seed/easy to seed. These are *relative* terms. Relative to what? What relationship? If you internet speed is slow *in relation* to everyone else then they won't want the data you have just downloaded, because they can get it from everyone else quicker (and they only need one copy of it). So you will find it hard to seed.

Thus whilst, the reviewer says it is easy to seed at TL (and he is relatively correct), if he is paying for a fast seedbox then it could just be easy for him (and fast people like him) to seed at TL but hard for someone with only a basic home internet connection (maybe).

The reviewer has recommended using the TL IRC channel as a means to get an invite. IRC is old and it can be a bit daunting at first because it seems like you have to learn programming and stuff (you don't). I am actually learning to programme but non-the-less and I found it a hassle to have to spend the time to learn how to get IRC up and running. (I downloaded the MIRC software and Kaspersky anti-virus looked at it and said "there is no way in a million years that *I* am going to let you install *that* onto *this*" so then I was googling "kaspersky + MIRC + not working" etc etc.). Fortunately there is a quick, easy, free way:

1) In your normal web browser go to: Mibbit.com Webchat client
2) click on Server (it's in small writing in the middle of the screen somewhere)
3) a little box appears, enter:
irc.torrentleech.org:7011
4) In the Nick: box you can change your nickname in the chat world of IRC to whatever if you want
5) Then in the Channel: box, put #torrentleech
6) click the go button

you should now teleport into the torrentleech chat room (well it works for me anyway)

Etiquette:
upon arrival you should see: do not ask for invites
what they mean by this is:
1) Do not ask for invites
2) Do not hint that you want an invite (especially not as soon as you enter the room)
3) Do not offer to pay for an invite
4) Do not use any language other than English
5) Do not swear
6) Do not mention the names of other trackers
7) Do not ask for someone to be your friend
8) Do not pm anyone without permission
and probably a host of other things that I haven't tripped up over yet

at Bitme you can just type .invites and it actually tells you these things (sort of). At TL they don't bother, which I feel maybe gives some indication about what the community might be like sometimes. Finally if they all turn against you because you are new try to remember that they are all suffering because one day years from now, they are all going to die and/or get old. If you remember that you might not get angry and argue and then get permabanned. Good luck

i wanted a TL invite so bad.then when i finely got in i find my self going back to IPT because what ever i was after was there first.that being said its still one of the best and its easy to seed if you cross seed from IPT.

isnt TL like the better Iptorrents? my friends keep calling it that :D

the best tracker so far!

Thanks for the review. TL is so far the best tracker I have been on. Only problem is, as mentioned, for new users. Only one thing can help you. Seed Seed Seed. You have to seed and there is no way out of it. Wait time and slot limit is a killer but try not stop the urge of downloading if it kills your ratio. And if you o want to download it. Here is a trick. Download 10% and then let it upload. You get to a decent ratio on that then upload next 10%. There are many tips on their forums and they are there for a reason. Hope you guys have a great time there.

TL is one of the best general
speed is good .... the staff very friendly
