Don't bother, none of them are worth it, they require you to always be active and frequent their site, they practically force you to donate or be banned, their torrents are basically identical to what you'd find on all public torrent sites, their giveaways are fake as fuck, you can't use scripts to automatically grab from the site because they'll ban you for not actively browsing the site. You're literally better off paying Netflix and friends than dealing with private trackers.

If you’re going to be forced to donate to a private tracker, just fucking buy a Usenet subscription instead.

In all my years, I've never been forced to donate to a private tracker. Most of them throw ratio at you, because you get it for seeding even if nobody is downloading from you. Shit, on MAM, I actually only have a 0.3 ratio, because everything is seeded so well. But I've been given credit for a 23.1 ratio.

If a person feels like they're being forced to donate, it's probably because they're a leecher, and used to being able to just quit torrents whenever they want.

MAM economy is actually so easy. I’m at 10 TiB of upload and still have bp left over. I think my actual upload is something like 700 GiB.
