    ThePlace.bz

    Tracker: ThePlace
    Tracker URL: ThePlace :: Login
    Open Signups?: Rarely; I believe there is an IRC interview; invites are enabled.
    Category: Self-help and lifestyle content
    Number of Users: 6000+ (Sourced from FILEnetworks Blog: ‘TheVault’, ‘ThePlace’, ‘TheOccult’ and ‘TheBox’ trackers open for signup)
    Number of Torrents: 13300+ (Sourced from FILEnetworks Blog: ‘TheVault’, ‘ThePlace’, ‘TheOccult’ and ‘TheBox’ trackers open for signup)

    Hehe, haven't done a review in a long time, so here goes. ThePlace, as you may have realised by now, is the sister site of TheVault, TheBox, and TheOccult. All being very niche trackers, ThePlace is no exception, speacialising in lifestyle content.

    Due to this being a sister site, the visual lay out is much like it's relatives; banner across the top with relative links. It would also be a safe assumption to make that these sites also use the same BitTorrent tracking software.

    As mentioned, ThePlace specialises in "lifestyle content" - a very broad and unspecific term, so what is it? From their "Browse" categories, it seems to cover a lot! "Alpha male example clips" (don't ask me) to health and fitness, as well as sex ( hehe). It also covers magic, fighting, and psychology.

    As long as it falls within a browse category, it can be uploaded. A unique feature to the upload process is that a torrent uploaded, can actually be exclusive to defined user.

    The site maintains an active forum, where one can go to socialise. They have a section where users can even write a journal, as well as other parts where social problems are presented, such as girlfriend issues. ThePlace also has it's own IRC channel, with a Java IRC applet inbuilt into the "Chat" section of the site, making it easy to talk with other members.

    Another feature within this site, as well as TheVault, is group buys. I don't seem to have got the full message as to what it is, but it seems like a group of users, will pledge Gb (as in gigabytes of upload) to put in a certain amount of money to buy an item which will then be uploaded to the site.

    Other parts of the forum include technical help, and site suggestions, as well as an other site section. Here you can get free invites for the likes of What.CD, PTP, and AnamaToonic, but please don't take advantage.

    Speeds can vary greatly; there are quite a few seedboxes, as users try to increase their ratio honestly, but many use their home connections (... to seed a DVD-R!)

    In concerns to cheating there I have used the Azureus Extreme Mod, no spoofing, with a fake upload of 20 to 30kBps. Because they use a custom port, the NRPG RatioMaster does not work there.

    In conclusion, as all niche trackers go, you need to be the right person to take full advantage of the site. If perhaps your lifestyle falls into one of the categories below (view screenshot) then this site may well be for you. Invites are hard to get, as a low user account persists, but I beleive there is an IRC method.

    Yeh sorry, I copy/pasted the top part of the review from TheBox... well spotted.

    Can a Mod, edit it to say "Self-help and lifestyle content" instead of "British TV and Radio".

    They've been trying to increase their userbase so sign-ups are open quite often, but if you don't get in now then they'll be closed with little chance of them getting open, and you'll have to fill out an interview and then go to a channel on their IRC and give it to the staff.

    Highly doubtful mate, the older The*.click trackers don't open signups anymore. A possible alternative may be getting to Power User on the ones that do and obtaining a ThePlace invite there.

    wishfull thinking i know - although i don't get you they suppose to make money - not opening so much the users database - invites for power users or elites dosen't count that much because they close 4-5 accounts per 1 invite

    no signup = kinda the same users = no donations

    found some invites on 25$ instead of 60$ normal but i don't have many trust that i won't waste money on how they usual act and i will turn up like my older account with 400$ donated and closed for nothing
    another option will be to donate on somebody else account in return of torrents but it's a pain also

    wish that they close down for good or turn in a normal torrent tracker website - not Hola Hups

    I understand, it's a shitty situation. Normally I'd be the first person to recommend simply forgetting about them and going elsewhere, but this is a fairly niche tracker with very few alternatives, and none of the same quality.

    I don't recommend buying invites, but if you're going to do that, make sure the seller has good reputation and follow all the usual advice for reregistering on trackers. Good luck!
