Ever since it’s inception back in 2001, BitTorrent has attracted millions of users who utilize it daily for transferring large files online. Public BitTorrent sites and private torrent trackers have nowadays become so popular that almost everyone including novice PC users seem to use them. However, it wasn’t only torrent sites that benefited from the file sharing boom – BitTorrent news and invite forums also grew alongside trackers. These sites serve as a gateway into most closed private torrent communities by helping their members obtain invites. Most such forums cover BitTorrent news, invite requests, giveaways, seedbox discussions, tracker recruitment, tracker reviews and even guides and tutorials related to various mediums of file sharing. This post summarizes information about 12 such forums that are currently open for registration.

Not all sites listed below have direct open signups – some are open via IRC interviews, some via online invite applications and some even via E-mail requests. For sites that were featured previously on FILEnetworks Blog, we have included a link to the full review so that interested readers may get more info before signing up.

We have tried to include as many sites as possible in this update but not all open signup forums were included (for example, we did not list some sites that were almost dead). If your favorite file sharing news forum is not listed above, please leave a comment to this post or send us an E-mail (filenetworks[at]gmail[dot]com) so that we may be able to list it in the next update (it should be open for signup either directly or indirectly).

    @kasley,
    Thanks but that list includes invite forums which are closed for signup. This post is about forums that are open for registration. Please correct it.

    umm.. for example thepiratesociety doesnt open right now :o

    Why is TPS included in that article? They've been locked up tighter than a drum for quite a while now.

    The channel topic from the help channel states: #invites is closed for now. Disabled accounts will not be re-enabled at this time.

    The channel topic from #invites states: #invites is closed for now TPS is not currently doing interviews.

    @Kasley, Removed your comment as some of the forums you listed didn't want to be publicly mentioned here. Sorry.

    I'm from romania , and the best advice i can give u guys is to avoid torrents.ro at all costs. It is filled with idiots, fakers, thieves, children, account stealers, etc. It has no rules, and its complete and utter chaos in there.

    As for the other sites, tracker reactor is ok, but the best, in my opinion, is the pirate society. So far it has met all my needs

  10. Andy // 7/26/2010 10:04:00 PM  

    The best of all is FST, without any doubt. All others are only about invites.

  11. tekcat013 // 7/27/2010 04:50:00 AM  

    This is what I found when I clicked
    the signup link from Trackereactor:

    "FREE registrations are closed for the time being however we may open randomly for a few days at a time during the future.

    $15 USD = Regular User access
    Gives you access to the following:........."

    Seems unfortunatly not open.
