Thankya sir :D

Okay so a year or so later I finally get going on this newsgroups shit. And if any oldschool FA need an invite to Demonoid or What.CD or tehconnection.eu (movies) I will gladly give you an invite, one available for each so first come first serve. And PLEASE seed and maintain your account, that is all I ask for in return.. I like my account :p


EDIT:

Ok so after the first 6 hours of trying to figure out how to use all of this.. I haven't been able to download a fucking thing, I am using usenet.com as my server, Grabit as my software.. When I am downloading "headers" I guess they are called, they go at like 152KB/s and take forever to download... when im downloading with torrents they go up to like 1.6MB/s. I try batch downloading, but nothing downloads.. I have an account at Newzbin now but I can't figure out what the heck I am doing there. Tutorial sites are just a big mess to read and all use different programs.

I have no idea what the heck is going on.. it seems so much more work to download from these newsreaders than the simple opening of a .torrent file and letting it do the rest in utorrent.

ha man its way better, assuming you can find what you need (typically you can).

im on a mac but its not that different. you need a site to find and download nzb files (the package file). then you need a program that loads the nzb file and downloads all the individual package files (rar or par files). then you need a program that opens the par file, checks the package, and puts it together. then thats it. both programs you need are very common and youll have choices. the first app should be used for only downloading and the second will work similar to winzip.

some apps have repair tools built in in case some of your downloaded files are incomplete, or you may have to download a separate repair tool.

let me know with any specific questions.

also, i have invites to demonoid, what.cd, waffles, scienceHD, torrentleech, and savethecoratee

Use Newzbin as your catalog site, Grabit to download, and Quickpar to repair. Newsleecher is also good but you'll have to get Grabit first to download the cracked version of Newsleecher :P On Newzbin you'll have to find something you want, go into that link and then select all the files 'cause they'll be like Movie.r01, Movie.r02, etc. and you'll need them all to extract. For your speed issues make sure you're using the max number of connections you can. Most places do 10 I think. Just right click your server and click edit and change the number of connections if it's only set to 1.

definitely use 5-10 threads (connections)

when looking at something you want on newzbin, all you have to do is press the button "create nzb file" and thats your .nbz file, similar to .torrent file
