So I’ve not seen it mentioned before, but if you want to start getting into private trackers, you can check out the private tracker general thread (/ptg/) on the /g/ board of 4chan
4chan is what it is, but there is a lot of good info in just the OP (please read the OP entirely before posting, I beg of you), and that’s how I got into private trackers
PS: you wont get any invite, dont ask for them
It’s virtually the same irc interview so if you don’t have another means of scoring your invite then the two are nearly even in terms of difficulty to join.
