so my go to for torrents down for the count. i know many of you just use torrents to upload to mega. so im kind of worried how i am going to get content. do we go private and do invite only? edit: wow I didn't expect such a reponse to this!
[-] YoutubeMula | 26 points
How does one go private?, and how would I get an invite cause I use r/megalinks for my content :/
Ultimately, if it's on Reddit, it's hard to make it private unless we password protect the sub. I seem to remember other subs doing that but I'm not sure if that would run the risk of going against Reddit policy. Otherwise, might be worth have a site like tumovie that has access to content but all content are password protected and the passwords would only be given out to members. I don't know if that's feasible either but it's an idea.
[-] indigo6alpha | 4 points
Well, how would you decide who you give out the passwords to? The real problem is the reporting of the links by copyright trolls. You give out the password to one wrong person, the link is as good as dead and we're back to square one.
password to one wrong person,
It could be done in the same way private trackers do it. A kind of register to gain access type of thing. If it's run the same way, and kept kind of small, the same way private trackers are, we should be fine.
[-] indigo6alpha | 4 points
Yes, that could work.
Just sent a message to /u/indigo6alpha to talk about it..................
And maybe 7% of what I post here comes from torrents, don't worry about content.
if the subreddit goes private, i'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for your hard work!

Don't worry they are an abundance of torrent sites still out there like demonoid,eztv,rarbg,yify,etc once one site falls down twice as many pop-up this stuff has been happening for years.

Would anybody be down to throw in some money on a seedbox and possibly a private invite to an awesome tracker and we can just share media through that seedbox?
I agree I think we should make our own tracker. Although I haven't the slightest idea how to do that.
that doesn't make any sense for content hosted on mega.

Yeah maybe an idea for another sub.

Yeah I feel like that defeats the purpose of hosting everything on Mega.
Since most of us like movies and TV here I was suggesting we throw in on a seedbox and maybe an invite to a public tracker (since they are hard to get into) and we can download the content we want and share it with among each other through ftp. I didn't mean us starting a tracker ourselves.

No it just means other people couldn't see what we do in this sub makes it less likely for it to go down.

If KissAnime runs off the same server as Cartoon it shouldn't be giving you popups, the owners of the site said last time that happened they were hijacked.

can you still access kat by .onion link?
[-] Hongkonpanel | 2 points
No the onion address was just a proxy redirect, wasn't hosted on seperate servers.
i'm astonished these guys would host in 14-eyes countries.
i'd rather be slow then seized.
[-] Hongkonpanel | 2 points
Indeed, hosting anything in the US is a bad idea IMO. Also it's pretty fucked up Facebook and Apple gave that data like it was nothing. Wasn't piracy that killed his work, pretty weird buying something legit would backfire so hard >.<
By using smartly, i.e, pasting only the portion after #, renaming files to initials... I think we still can keep it going this way how ever if we do go private, I'd love an invite

please invite me if you go private. unless i don't need an invite as I'm already subbed. I don't know. I only created a reddit account so that I could use megalinks. It's a safe, secure, and easy way to get entertainment and I don't want to see it go.

Megalinks is used as a cloud based service right? If so it should be alright. Accusing megalinks of piracy would be the same as accusing Gdrive of piracy. It doesn't directly support piracy (unlike kat or tpb) it's just how it is used.
I think Megalinks would be fine.
