Comprehending the new time-bonus system at rutracker.org
Having read reviews about the new time-bonus system at rutracker.org, I wanted to formulate my thoughts and share them. Yes, in the voting on Habré, the majority voted for “I don’t care,” but here’s a real panic on rutracker.org (for more details see: rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2879173 rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic .php? t = 2886121 ).
So why don't people like the time bonus system? To answer this question, you must first say two words about the differences between the old and the new systems. In the old system was considered rating by accounting for traffic. In the new time is considered, which you sit on the distribution, it is not so important, whether you distribute real or not. Thus, it used to be important to choose popular distributions so that you download a lot from you, but now only your constancy is important.
Let's try to understand who will benefit from this innovation and who will lose:
So who loses and why do the screams go? My answer is those for whom the rating was a toy. Especially users with a wide channel. Because before it was possible to gain a rating and brag about it. Now they have no advantage over other users. Yes, the rating is recalculated for time-bonuses, but at such a rate that 14GB distributed corresponds to 1 additional torrent jump. Actually, we are not talking about the ability to download. Top-siders have long been able to score on the distribution and all my life to download anything. And the new system does not take away this opportunity.
')
So my conclusion is that the protests against the new system are irrational. Protest those who have taken away a toy rating. They are not used to the new type of rating (and, perhaps, it is more difficult to cheat). It will take time, and all will be measured by time bonuses. But while the loss of the “puzomerki” is very unpleasant.
You do not agree?

- New users will benefit, because it will be easier for them not to ruin your account right away - just keep your computer turned on - and you can download. Previously, you had to think about the rating, which led to problems for people with a gray address and asymmetric channel
- Users with a narrow channel - will benefit in the same way.
- Seekers of rare distributions will win, because it will be beneficial to keep these distributions in hand (everyone used to try to distribute only popular ones).
- Those who are looking for the popular will not change anything, because if the distribution is popular, then it will not be kept for rating either.
- Users with a wide channel - it seems that they will not lose and will not win. It seems to be.
