Apart from user invites, how does one go about joining Karagarga these days? I'm on none of these fancy trackers they supposedly recruit on (BTN & HDB) and wonder if there's any other feasible path.

Apart from user invites, how does one go about joining Karagarga these days? I'm on none of these fancy trackers they supposedly recruit on (BTN & HDB) and wonder if there's any other feasible path.
you dedicate few hours from your life daily then join hdb then join karagarga. that is the only straightforward way next to becoming a social creep or make friends among mods and staffs and see where it goes from there, most are unsocial like they are in real life but few are sociable as long as you try. in a real experience i would suggest you just get lots of bonus points in bhd or blutopia via cheating then create requests. this helps both a non-cheating pajeet soul to get points and help thy economy and you get your contents, i'd also say look at creating requests in filelist too since most if not all private tracker users use it heavily and has lots of good ranking uploaders with sources, sadly both BLU/BHD are too "HD" to give you dvd handjob encodes which is what a huge amount of kg has but besides those you can join usenet indexers but that's another story of cock blocking. that aside the first method is the hardest with gradual result within 2-3 years. or even faster if you get good enough connections, just forget official invites. KG also gives its users few invites each year so that's faster then wasting hours on encoding and uploading. goodluck, just make the best of what you have then be in anticipation of kg and keep requesting.
That's so pessimistic... and also true. Long gone are the .net days where Power Users could have up to 4 invites usable at any time. The best part is, considering their specialization, KG doesn't have to worry about the MPAA or Disney, and (for that same reason) the kind of person who seeks an invite in the first place is more likely than average to be genuinely interested and use their account. Oh well.
rumor need to join ptp first which isn't possible
Rumor also says you can ask for an invite in their irc, is it still a thing?Quote:

I watch art films a lot, mainly European/french. Favorite director probably goes to François Truffaut for his sensuous beyond his time, and solo fansubbed 20+ rare films in my spare time.Quote:
Selling, trading or publicly offering KG invites is strictly forbidden. Invites may be given to friends or fellow film enthusiasts.
Even though I probably didn't need KG. As I spend years practicing deep net search skills with over 2000+ films, I can pretty much find any film I'm interested on the net now. I would love to join a community to share and hopefully be able to help couple of souls.
any help would be much appreciated. :D
The most recent mention of this I could find is from three years ago... only one way to know.Quote:

can a friendly person who is active on this tracker answer me some questions via private message? i really dont want to discuss this in public.
If you're only interested in movies, you can join Secret Cinema, a ratioless movie tracker specializing in obscure/art/non-mainstream movies. And if you can't find what you need there, make a request and users will fill them up from PTP & KG.Quote:

Anybody knows how often current KG users are gifted invites? A guy in my university is an active user there and I'm thinking of asking him if he has any invites to offer.
Yeah... I blew a bunch of accounts back in the days when trying to cheat like a mad man and there was always a way back in...Quote:

Recently got to know from a reliable source that sometimes a KG invite is offered to active SC members. I hope that's true. Can someone here corroborate this?
Hopefully you just need to bide your time until it happens :gsmile:Quote:

These trackers don't want people who will only "download and seed"... not anymore.Quote:

I don't have high hopes for that but let's see.Quote:

Their forums are not that active anyway so uploading content regularly seems to be the only way. But honestly I think I got way too obsessed with getting into these elite trackers and started spending too much time on it. As of now the trackers that I'm part of are serving me well. If I want something then I can easily put up a request on SC and someone who's on KG/CG/PTP/TIK can get it filled as it happens fairly regularly. Need to spend less time and energy on getting into top trackers and simply enjoy the stuff that is already accessible.Quote:

That screencap is quite on point. There's a thrill in chasing these top trackers but it does get exhausting and ultimately a time wasting adventure.
There's a guy who regularly offers invites to KG on PTP forum. Have a nice profile before applying as he gets bombarded with requests and picks the ones he deems most worthy.
I'm the OP (lost access to that other account), and want to say that I managed to get in a while ago. As the user above said, there's a guy (supposedly a mod in disguise) regularly giving out invites on PTP, but I would also tell you to pay attention to when KG gives its users invites: it usually happens once a year, and when it does, user invites start popping out on all sort of trackers, but specially movie trackers.
And, what's probably most important of all, please do have an genuine interest in cinema, and a way of showing that e.g. a Letterboxd profile with tons of obsucre films logged. Your prospective inviter will probably favour you more if he can see you're a film buff.
And away goes privacy.Quote:

These types of sites (criticker, letterboxd, trackt, etc) are nice to use, but, for who doesn't want to leave a (quite accessible and passive of selling) record of their tastes and habits online, requiring a social media account check to join a site (a private tracker in this case) that can become a legal liability in the future is a no-go.
I keep over the fence with KG (not joining it besides having been invited many times in different places) due to this "we want to know about your life" attitude.
Not everyone is willing to expose their lives online (as boring and simple they can be) and requiring so to just download movies feels quite intrusive and disrespectful. I know it is not the intention and that there are reeeeeally worse places out there than KG on this matter, but not knowing much about who is downloading should be in the interest of any server.
Well... trackers track.
I can discuss this with you. But you need to PM. Your settings are not allowing me to pm youQuote:

I see. Thanks for the info. I will take a closer look at the site?s WiKi :smile:
