18.08.09, 17:58
Is it just me or there is no snatchlist on there. I have been checking mine for days now and still nothing showing up on there.

Mihai
18.08.09, 18:07
They had one but they removed it now.Not sure why.

zaxxx
18.08.09, 18:45
Yes same way here... I hope it will be back and its just a temp...

SBfreak
18.08.09, 19:16
No it won't be back.. at least from what I understood in their forums.

naughtydog
18.08.09, 19:23
atleast it goes to my advantage, I don't understand romanian but snatchlist kinda reveal your activity at a glance when mods see it. I only use modded bitcomet tools on filelist and hence I don't make many announces like on TL to cover my traces. Good to know it's not coming back.

anon
18.08.09, 20:10
They had one but they removed it now.Not sure why.

They have a lot of users, so maybe they tried to decrease the pressure put on the server by removing the snatchlist. Zamunda is much bigger than them and still keeps one, but it only shows the name of the torrents you've snatched, nothing else.

anon
25.08.09, 20:22

I also noticed I'm still logged in after a day, whereas before I'd have to reauthenticate even if I kept my cookies from the old session.

Why they don't have option to sort torrents for seeders,leechers or torrent name ..

anon
30.08.09, 19:49
Yes, sorting isn't allowed at all, to reduce server load, I suppose - they have 180000+ users.

atlantis
30.08.09, 20:16
Well TL heave many users too but they have this options

And yes, FL.ro for the win. It's the romanian TorrentLeech, but a great international content tracker as well. It's one of the trackers I use the most.

31.08.09, 22:02
Thanks for the informative overview, I was lucky enough to find an invite to this tracker a couple of weeks ago, motivated by the great comments i read on this forum about it, i thought that maybe they were a little exagerated, but now that i'm in, i have to say that i'm really surprised to see how good this tracker is, also i'm surprised to see how underrated it is as well. This tracker blows the shit out of most of those "you'll never gonna get an invite l33t trackers" that are out there. Great content, great speeds, a lot of freeleech, very good pretimes too, very easy to seed.

SBfreak
06.09.09, 22:56
It's not just you! http://filelist.ro looks down from here.

Hmm I'm wondering what are they doing.
Maybe some new stylesheets for us:biggrin:

classyboy
12.09.09, 18:10
Of recent, FL.ro has kept up with TL in releases of BRRips, and good seeders too. FL.ro and TL are probably the only sites one may ever need (except for music of course).

Which categories have free leech torrents?

naughtydog
03.02.10, 08:57
^^^ mostly pc games and files over 6gig i presume. FL is really superb. blu rays and dvds (not rips) are all freeleech too.

In my opinion it's not so hard to keep a ratio there.

(Look, I'm the one referencing cheating while you're talking about honest seeding now!)

FL.ro for the win. Great speeds, lots of content, unpacked stuff... what else could you ask for?

SBfreak
03.02.10, 17:38
To make things clear.I cheat only when I feel badass.All my trackers accounts are well buffered over 3 ratio.
The Fl account has nearly 3 TBs.And besides from using RM from time to time I didn't cheat so much.

atlantis
03.02.10, 18:03
fl is good but we can't sort files for name,seeders,leechers and this sux

anon
03.02.10, 18:03
seeders,leechers

The closest thing to this is sorting by "peers".

atlantis
04.02.10, 12:43
and how i can do that ?

SBfreak
04.02.10, 12:45
You can only filter search results by peers,not all.
Type in what you need and then click on "Hibrid " and choose "peers"

anon
04.02.10, 17:02
You can only filter search results by peers,not all.

If you're in the Movies/XviD category, you can search for "XVID", it's the closest thing :biggrin:

Mihai
04.02.10, 19:01
If you just want to sort them so you can cheat then don't.Cheat at any torrents.

atlantis
04.02.10, 22:54

anon
04.02.10, 22:55

You can always cheat wish lesser speeds like 1MB/s on torrents with no so much activity.

anon
28.02.10, 17:00
I don't think FL.ro even cares about activity, but it's always a good idea to pick an active torrent. Excepting the PMR (and flashing in general), any tool should do.

I took a look on that filelist.ro thread.
It seems those who have click.net(isp) can't access the site at all.
I guess you already tried
ipconfig/flushDNS since it's mentioned in one of the comments.

Is it the same as in IPT? No H&R detection ?

That's on their rules, but they don't care at all. It's easier to ask members not to hit & run, rather than installing a script to deter such activities (which would increase the servers' load).

On torrents.ro mods are having a tough time with show off retarded guys that like to say stupid thing like they really know something.
Filelist.ro was down before and will be back online as soon as possible.
In the meantime just stick with the other trackers you own.

anon
24.11.10, 22:43
I've had to use Filelist to download some exclusive packs recently, and observed all torrents seem to include the PublicBT UDP tracker's URL on them now. Besides enabling effort-free ghostleeching (just remove the FL.ro URL) and increasing overhead, I don't know why they're doing that. :huh:

You could say it's to provide a fail-safe in case the main tracker goes down, but the drawbacks far outweigh that advantage, in my opinion.

Instab
25.11.10, 02:40
how can they control the ratio then?
sounds like demonoid.ro :P

anon
25.11.10, 12:58

The "main" tracker URL, which includes your passkey... when you haven't removed it. :wgrin:

Anyway, if you look at all the FL.ro comments in this forum, it appears rules are taken rather lightly there - they don't care about cheating, trading, etc., just don't be an idiot and try to seed what you've snatched. That and the large number of users makes the place awesome (for me, of course).

filelist.ro is having global freeleech until 11.09. due to their 10th anniversary

10 years of FileList


Today marks 10 years since this website is up and running. This might very well be the perfect moment to announce that we are shutting down, right?

I'm obviously kidding, we are barely getting started! We have quite a few surprises of decent proportions planned for the near future, although I would have loved some of those changes to go live today, we have learned from our experience 5 years ago and decided it's best to simply lay back and enjoy the anniversary!

So stick with us, 10 more years filled with surprises are coming up!

Without beating around the bush for too long, I wish you, the huge and awesome FileList community, a HAPPY 10th BIRTHDAY, without you this site would definitely not have survived for this long!

We thank you that either if it's good or bad days, you are by our side!
We thank you for supporting and sustaining the community, it is thanks to you that this website is still growing and flourishing!
We thank you for seeding the torrents so that all of the members of our community can enjoy them! In this past year, the amount of peers has nearly tripled.
We thank you for showing us that 35.000 distinct members can seed the same torrent at the same time, through this you managed to outplay the expectations of many!
We thank you for being FileList! Today is your anniversary!

A good party doesn't end without someone on the floor, does it? Here are some of the events you can enjoy during this week!

Global FreeLeech! - A whole week of Global FreeLeech! Starting on the 4th of September until the 11th of September.
2x FLTokens for every user - Everyone will get 2 FLTokens , which you can use to download any torrent as FreeLeech after the Global FreeLeech period is over.
10th anniversary gift - Starting on the 4th of September until the 11th of September you will be able to claim a gift, by clicking in the lower left corner of the website, once every 24 hours. The gifts are similar to those in the shop (Upload, FLCoins, Invitations, FLTokens, VIP).
Staff organized competitions - You can visit the dedicated forum section and participate in some contests of your liking.
Discounted Shop prices! Although normally these used to be reserved for Black Friday, we kept being asked for discounts, so on the 4th of September you can enjoy the Shop at reduced prices!
Double FLCoins on iRC - Starting on the 4th of September until the 11th of September you are going to gain double the normal amount of FLC for iRC idle.
iRC Lottery is back! - Starting on the 4th of September until the 11th of September you can buy tickets for the iRC lottery. The draw is going to be at 23:59 (Bucharest time)

We hope our little surprises and gifts will put you in a good mood!

Once again, Happy Birthday FileList! 10 years!

We wish you all the best!

filelist 12th anniversary


[English]
Dear community,

We are entering the "holy week" and we would like to organize a few contests because we need your help. On 4th of September we celebrate our 12th anniversary, thus starting today up until September 7th global FreeLeech will be enabled. Besides that, every 24 hours you can claim your anniversary gift by clicking on the gift in the bottom left corner. Before revealing the contests that start today I would like to offer some context.

This is about our new website:
https://cdn.mnmlsv.net/32a2d9af54282dffb3d6b95101a075f2.png

Roughly 2-3 years passed since we first started thinking of changing the source code that gives life to our website. Even though over the years we have optimized the existing code base hugely, we are convinced that we can do better. The code is old and any tracker that is based on old sources like TBDev is bound to have some issues at some point. We want to avoid this.

Obviously, our first thought was to migrate to Gazelle (for those that don't know, Gazelle is one of the best tracker sources out there) but the huge problem was we would still have to re-code a lot of it to make it fit our needs. Gazelle is mainly focused on music and us being a general tracker, it would require core changes. However, even if let's say we would make those changes, it still wouldn't really fit our needs.
With that in mind, one and a half years ago we began coding everything from scratch. We have built it from ground up, inherently build it around our needs and wishes (the community needs and wishes, because yes, we do see every suggestion and request you make). To accomplish this we have used cutting edge technologies which allowed us to reach our goal: performance.

There's no point in chasing our tails, so here are some details of what we are doing:
- for those with technical knowledge: OOP coding pattern, PHP 7.2+ native, PDO MySQL with prepared statements (better security), Memcached, javascript, Bootstrap 4 front-end framework. We are using state of the art security functions, AES-256 encryption and for hashes only SHA-256. Because everything is OOP it will be a lot easier to maintain and upgrade the code base in the future.
- everything is built from scratch, we have copied nothing over from the old source.
- we have improved the torrent structure, implemented new categories and options. The browse page will look different.
- we are changing our search engine to something modern with realtime indexing capabilities (includes the new torrent filters).
- native language system. The website will be 100% Romanian or 100% English, no mixing anymore. The only content that won't be translated is the user content (forum posts, torrent comments) but you are free to talk in English anywhere and if you need help with something our community will gladly help you and respond in English. We have a lot of Romanians and foreign users that know/speak English.
- modern & responsive design. Users will be able to create themes and share them with the community.
- two new user classes and some changes to privileges.
- performance will be greatly enhanced, allowing us to implement pretty much anything the community will ask for.

There is much more to be said, but we really don't want to spoil all the surprise.

As a small comparison between our current source (and I repeat, it does work good) and the new one that we code:
- on the old one, because of the way the old code is written, roughly 40-45 queries (per visit) to the database are required to display the main forum page;
- on the new one we have cut that down immensely, 3 queries are required in case of a server restart, otherwise one query per visit is all we need. This brings a huge performance boost and it will allow us to enable things that are normal to have on a forum.
Sure, we could have re-coded it on the current source, however the lowest we could bring the query count would still be too high.

The amount of work that we need to do is far from small. We are also upgrading the entire database (structure, tables, fields, data, etc.) and considering that we also have a personal life, family, job, etc. it takes much more time than we have wanted. I think that any technically skilled person that understands what we are doing knows that the amount of work that needs to be done is massive. At the end of the day FileList is just a hobby and there are moments when we didn't have time to work on this at all. Even so, we are 50% done.

And why would I tell you all of this? Well, first, we don't want you to think that we do not want to improve our lovely website. Second, we need a new logo and some new forum icons. There will be more contests and information to follow in the near future. The prizes are worth your while in my opinion and contests will stay open much longer than the anniversary ones.

Both contests have English version included after the Romanian one.
Logo Contest
Forum Icons Contest

Wishing you all an amazing week!

Migrating to a different codebase already takes an insane amount of work... migrating after creating that different codebase from scratch doubly so. I'm looking forward to seeing what the future brings, maybe we'll finally get the ability to sort torrents by amount of seeders or leechers! :wgrin:

I encourage everyone to click on the gift box every day this week, they're super generous with their presents.

i don't know where 10 days has passed since than :confused: for me it was like it happend last month or so- maybe where i do same things each day - i remeber when i was in school when i've felt a year passing like it was a decade now is the other way around

overhere moslty tv-shows - also compared to other trackers la scenefz fl.ro has a lack of romanian content since they don't allow that or something - public trackers are good when it comes to download something shared recently because on older stuff rarelly you will find seeders - the cons of public trackers - at least on private they still are 2-3 seeders



I just received an invite code! That's a big deal when you aren't VIP.

yesterday i've got 3 tokens also :) today i have to wait until later
i just noticed that they have permanent vip for some 50k of coins - buuuu - i've spent 60e on donation for permanent vip just to see a star and 100+ invites how to grow roots in my account :smile:))

Another year goes by... make sure to check your accounts every day this week, the daily gifts are as great as usual!


It's been one more year of FileList, which means we are 13 years old.

Since the last anniversary we have changed our main domain, we introduced the API which enables programatically searching for torrents, we have improved the relevancy of the results reeturned by the search engine and we made a few major improvements and modifications to the tracker. We could say it was a somewhat active year.

Slowly, but surely, the development of the new site is still ongoing. We know you are eager to have it, because so are we.
There will be a staff only closed beta, after which an invitation based beta will start in which you (the users) will also be able to participate.
We'll return with more details about the signing up procedure when we'll be closer to the user beta phase.

Also, I wish to thank you, all the members of this community. You, starting from the user rank up until administrator are the people which make this site work. You are the cogs which make everything run smoothly.

Thank you for supporting the community, because of you the site is still progressing in the best way possible!

They were always easy to seed on, but extending freeleech, adding coins and the post-2017 boom in popularity made them reach Monty Haul levels. Ratio and buffer are basically meaningless there... not that I have any complaints, and retention is better than you'd expect.

It's closing!!


Dear ones,
I'm sorry to have to make this announcement, but this is where our tracker comes to an end. It is important that you understand and accept this decision. Although it was a difficult one, it was taken after careful evaluation and for good reasons.

Unfortunately, I no longer have the time to run the site. A site like this requires quite a lot of commitment and my priorities in everyday life have changed in recent years. Time is the most precious resource for all of us and I have invested enough time here.

I wanted to leave the site to someone else, who would take care of the community in the future, but unfortunately I don't have anyone to leave it to. ToXiC, the one who was going to take my place is no longer with us.

This is quite the responsibility, we have a large number of users who also have sensitive data that cannot be left in anyone's hands. Abuses can be made and whoever has absolute power can decide anything regarding everything related to the community, so obviously a reliable, capable person is needed who also has very advanced technical knowledge to ensure the security of our users and proper functioning of the site.
It is quite difficult to find such a person who is integrated here and shares the same values and has the same dedication that you have enjoyed for the last 16 years.

I decided that the best thing to do is to close the site rather than risk something like this.
I'm truly sorry, I've also put a lot of work into this and I've always had the community at heart.

As a SysOp I thank you for your active involvement in our community. I deeply appreciated the valuable contributions, the passion you brought and the effort you put in. FileList would not be what it is today without the involvement of all of you!

What happens from now on?
From this moment on, donations are closed and the amount we have covers expenses for the next 2-3 months.
During this time you can still enjoy the site, download what you need from here and post your goodbye message in the thread.
After ~3 months, sometime around January 2024, the site will be closed permanently.

With love and appreciation,
EboLLa

It's closing!!

Very surprising and sad news, especially considering just last month they were celebrating their 16th anniversary at full throttle :wfrown: A friendly hand willing to take over management could show up, but that seems unlikely: if someone so trustworthy and capable existed, they'd have been found before making the announcement.

One thin silver lining is that the shutdown process is being handled in the best possible way. New Year 2024 is enough time to download bookmarked torrents, archive exclusive ones, and use your profile link as proof for joining other trackers. Those who were active in the community get to say their farewells and coordinate efforts to create a new meeting place. Existing funds will be used until they run out, so no one can accuse staff of doing a cash grab (not that they were pay2win or ever sent PMs begging for donations).

Same. I've been a member way before they went international, and it's always been among my Top 3 most used accounts, despite having "better" ones like ScT and SCC. I think the combination of good layout, good content and not having to spend lots of time building a buffer before you could enjoy them did the trick for me. For a clone of a (now long-defunct) international tracker started by a Romanian guy, they sure got places and made history.

Alternatives include TL, IPT, AR and SpeedApp. TL is known to open signups whenever something like this occurs, as recently as with RARBG last June, and will probably do so either now or when the shutdown is finalized.

Do you have any suggestion of best place as an alternate. TL is not one as whenever i checked any classic movies in 1980s, TL will have 0 seeds where as FL will have atleast 1 seed and will get not less than 3 mbps everytime.

If you expect to find a perfect replacement, I have bad news for you, and that's why everyone's so distraught over this.

Anyway, we have approximately three months until any torrent that hasn't been cross-seeded somewhere else is effectively lost. Grab whatever you need now and don't forget to seed back... speaking of which, they had the most relaxed seeding time requirements of all major general trackers... ugh!

Also this year closing down TorrentBytes and PirateTheNet

While not torrent-related, I routinely used AnonFiles to transfer data in both directions and therefore also count it among this year's big losses.


New ones will arrive! or get current ones will get stronger

My proverbial money's on the latter. Starting a new tracker requires a lot of upfront work, and due to the network effect, people are more likely to gravitate towards established alternatives. In fact, TL has already opened signups for FL members.

An addendum to the announcement was posted today, although it basically says "we're not backpedaling on this".

I think a few clarifications are necessary...

1. A good part of you suggested that we should introduce a subscription of a few euros as if that would solve something...
It was never about money. ALL of our staff members did voluntary work. No one earns money here, it was and it is a hobby for everyone. That is the purpose of a site like FileList, to be free, people donate as much as they want and when they want. The community has kept the site alive all this time. That's why you didn't see ads, weren't bombarded with messages about donations, etc. The donations covered the necessary costs and everything was OK all this time.

2. Let's leave the conspiracy theories aside. Not everything is a conspiracy...
Since 2020 I've been trying to leave the site to someone else... I've tried 2 times already. These things take time, trust is hard to win, you don't know a person in 1-2 months so that I can leave the site to anyone that pops up now.
Just the idea that someone comes and starts thinking of this site as a business and starts making money with it and that's enough. I don't want anyone to destroy what FileList meant and means.

3. Related to alternatives because people kept asking. If we find a good alternative, I promise to let you know here. Don't create accounts on all kind of websites. Not everywhere is like it was on FileList, don't be naive. Be careful where you register. Be patient as there is time... do not rush.

4. Related to the database... it will be completely deleted at the end. All users benefit from security and anonymity. So for all those who ask for the database, it is more than obvious that we will never give it to anyone.

17.10.23, 18:51
We were overwhelmed by your wishes and messages!

You know that over the years, I've always said that the community has a significant voice. Your words have always mattered, and we've never been indifferent to them. Your voice has been heard, even now.

I am delighted to announce that the website will not be shutting down!
Donations are now reactivated, so everything is returning back to normal.

One of the founders of the website, God, is back and will take over the technical aspect to ensure the site continues to thrive. He is trustworthy, loyal, and things will certainly go well from this point of view.
However, we also needed someone to take care of the other aspects of the work. From now on, Oana will handle everything related to the staff, server payments, and all the internal matters that a SysOp does. She will get promoted to the SysOp class. She is more than capable and competent to maintain control and ensure that everything runs smooth internally. Congratulations!

Together, they will continue the necessary work to keep this website alive.

That being said, this announcement will be my last. I, EboLLa, am permanently retiring from the community.
I want to personally thank you all for all the private messages and wishes you've sent me. There have been so many, and I genuinely appreciate them from the bottom of my heart. You are all wonderful, and I appreciate each and every one of you!
I am and have been honored that I could contribute to your well-being! To all of you. Farewell and take care! :love:

So let's wish Oana and God best of luck!

With love and appreciation,
EboLLa

Invites are open again after nearly four months, but with many new restrictions in place: lootboxes can no longer award temporary VIP or invite codes, single invites cost 30,000 coins in the shop, 30-day VIP status is no longer available, and permanent VIP has gone up to 100,000 coins.

Take good care of your accounts, guys!

Great update, thanks for the heads up.

IMO it is a bit too much but might be worth it, FL needs to be ahead of the game compared to TL and IPT.

As long as FL continues their policy of not having 50 different torrents for the same movie, I see no threat on this regard :happy:
