I used to donate about everywhere but now I only donate at the places that I respect (or seem to respect me as a member ) regardless of how much I actually use the site.
OK that's not entirely true if I see someplace that is really lacking in donations for a given month then I feel compelled ( no doubt stupidly so) to help out.
It's not like I'm made of money but it's also like I haven't gotten my money's worth 10 times over.:idunno:
P2L as a reason to donate is really not worth it. It's much better to spend that money on a seedbox, which will help all your other torrent sites too.
i would but i'm concerned about privacy.
when i pay them they know my real name and stuff
Well I use to Donate Lot To trackers which were Not P2L type.
But After down of iTN ( my 55$ ) i stopped doing so.
Ofc, you can look at the amount donated as a gift to perpetuate the tracker (and we all hope that it will do just that).
However, the donation can also be seen as a thank you for all of the enjoyment and efforts that we have already received.
I do not believe fear that a tracker will eventually fail (close its doors) is a fair reason to not donate. If everyone thinks that way, all trackers will eventually have to close or be entirely supported by owners/staff. That just isn't fair in my book.
And remember, you do not have to donate such a large amount. It's great if you can afford that kind of generosity, but many trackers have donation buttons starting at $5. How far would that go towards a [pick whatever kind of entertainment you receive from your favorite tracker and imagine that it's gone].
If my broke, Ramen eating, grad-school goin', twins due in March, ass can afford to donate, I think most people can.
