Ever wonder how a global ban works?

[Hideehi]

First of all, I'd like to say that it's an excellent community you guys have here. I was banned from what.cd two months ago, for using RM (without memory reader). I also lost my accounts on waffles, BitMe and PTP. Thanks to this site, I got back in (haven't started cheating again yet but now I know to use memory reader )

Anyways, I was browsing through the what.cd trash today, and guess what I found? A thread on how those f***** global banned me!

Does anyone know how many sites have feeds like that? I want to cheat on BMTV but I'm afraid they'll have the same system and spread my IP info again.

Thanks.

If you do a search for "tracker connections" you should fine some information, for example:

What.cd<->BCG<->x264<->GFT<->TopHos, etc.

A general rule of thumb would be to avoid using the same IPs, usernames or e-mail addresses on sites that may be or are known to share information.

Thanks for the information anon. The thread I found seems to be a bit more complicated though - it seems they do something weird with IRC to automatically tell all the sites. Is there any way we can break into the channel? DDOS the bot?

Why don't you worry about not getting caught in the first place? That's easier.

Probably. I was just thinking for other people like me - I was a power user, over 100 forum posts on What, 200GB buffer on PTP, etc...I'd invested a lot of time into those accounts. If I can help other people not get global banned like I was, it's good karma, you know?

Also, I tried searching for "tracker connections" and couldn't find a thread with them all. Should we make the thread?

There is no thread, but random bits of info all over the board. Feel free to start it if you want.

i think you helped enough.... but most users here will not make such silly mistakes

I started the list here http://www.sb-innovation.de/showthre...threadid=19568 If anyone has anything to add, I'll add it to the list :)

I beg to differ ... THE general rule of thumb should be: DON'T GET CAUGHT!

Use your brain, good cheating mods and blend in the swarm with the correct cheating settings. Doing that you never get caught (unless some staffer without a life starts checking out the stats manually).

Yes, of course. There's no way to deny that.

lolol ive been globally banned over 5x already, after the 4th time i decided i would only upload max 100mb to every tracker (to stop account from getting auto deleted) i get access to again and from there on just use ratiofaker to prevent dl/ul stats and show me as a constant seeder, no bumps in the road as of yet lol

as anon stated, basicly, it is too dummy to use same personal IDing info when filling the registering application, also you can't (let me rephrase, you'd better not to) use two accounts to download two different files at the same time with the same faking tool (this expose your network info ie. IP & DNS for their scripts to pick up).

Over & above, just bare in mind that most of those trackers' owners work together in order to get better reputation & high quality user base so when it comes to hammer down a bad user/cheater, I'd bet they will spread the word around in no time.
