Thread: PTN (PTN) Review

there's been some changes regarding userclass promotion today

Very nice design on this tracker, if not the coolest :)

I personally like very much the way it structures all that information from imdb (rating, playtime, etc). Keep up the good work!

I just managed to get in yesterday :)
very very neat stuff in ptn and it stands out so much compared to others

really amazing design an the torrent system is pretty nice too :D

Someone let me in after CN went byebye. I love it! And fitting for slow users that don't download that much .

PTN is a great movie tracker.

It has an increasing number of OLD as well as NEW movies both in DVDRIP and HD formats.

If you like movies then this is the tracker you want.

I got an invite to PTN recently.

I think the design of the site is only second to BTN as far as how sleek and cool it looks. It has quite a bit of torrents and even older torrents have a decent number of seeders, which is a problem for a lot of ratioless trackers. The staff seems pretty cool. I know when I first joined, I jumped onto the help channel in IRC, nobody was there to answer one of my questions, a few minutes later I got a PM and a staff member actually apologized for not being available.

My only complaints thus far:
1) Navigation is a little quirky. If you click on a torrent's detail page and then push back on the browser, you are right back at the beginning of the "browse" page and not where you were.


2) BTN and GFT have spoiled me in the sense that I can navigate to my profile and the tracker will "explicitly" tell me how much time I need to seed. Based on my knowledge as a new member, you have all kinds of stats on your profile page and it does tell you how long you have seeded but it doesn't tell you explicitly how long you need to seed to avoid H&R.

3) The searching of torrents is not too intuitive. It's kind of hard to explain (and it's late :) ), but I think other members know what I am talking about.

Overall, this tracker is the absolute bomb. I love the fact that they count your "upload and download" as your total activity.

I will be using this tracker for a long time.

I've had one issue with PTN, i seeded more than enought, but the tracker marked the torrent as a Hit and Run, nothing that a simple PM to the Captain haven't solved in minutes. They removed my warning and corrected the bug at the otehr day.
