FtN and iFi invites
Two new sites today…
FtN
FtN is a highly-coveted (and secretive) private tracker that has abandoned the ratio system, making it very similar to a permanent ‘freeleech’. Instead, users must continue seeding torrents for a minimum time of 48 hours (but not contiguously). Presently, torrents list in at 2,300, and there’s nearly 4,700 members out of a 6,000 limit. Finding an invite is tricky, and usually done through FtN “Community Reps” acting as site ‘recruiters’. As expected from an elite tracker, their pre-times on new torrents are exceptionally good, and FtN offers many large custom ‘packs’.
iFi
iFi is a relatively newcomer to the private tracker scene. There’s a tiny member limit of just 1,000 - and of this, there’s only about 325 registered users. The active torrent count sits at under 200, but this doesn’t thwart the high demand for membership to this elite and elusive tracker. The forums, with over 2,500 posts, are unusually busy for such a small group of members, proof that iFi is more about community than it is about the torrents. There’s no ratio system on iFi.
