Tracker Description
TEH is a gazelle based tracker, one of the oldest & respectable movie trackers.It has one of the largest databases of old & new movies.It has frequent scene & p2p releases.Its releases are high quality & has internal encoder groups.Torrents are organised very neatly under categorized movie titles.Site layout has a good ambience about it & the speed by which pages and images load are very fast.Overall tracker interface is user-friendly.It does not have bonus points feature or a dedicated freeleech section but the way the rules are setup even the oldest torrents are well-seeded.Pre-times on site are very good & download speeds are tremendous.Its a great site only second to PTP.

TEH's manifesto states its main aim is to become an archive site & undoubtedly the rules in place suggests to have ensured that it becomes a niche tracker where the focus isnt on becoming just another movie tracker but 'the' movie tracker with library not just filled with recent movie releases but older & foreign too.The pretimes are very good, many users have seedbox which means the speed while you are downloading the torrent is going to max out your internet connection however there is drawback of too many seedboxes which is that the competition between seeders is fierce, even uploaded torrent is sometimes barely able to make 1.0 ratio & die quickly,some forums such as encoder's help or invites one are quite active others arent as much.IRC can be very quite sometimes.
Ratio building could be very tricky initially it gets easier with time that is if you manage to strategize,when you first join the tracker you are given 25GB upload credit use it wisely.My advice is wait for MOTW & jump on it early,i sometimes get 100s gb upload from a single MOTW week, this is a good way to crumble your cookies.Nice ratio will require some dedication so be patient, dont panick & plan your approach.
User ranks are according to average seeding size & not buffers or uploads the reason behind this i think is to ensure full user engagement, the benefit of this for members is that even the old torrents are seeded & can be downloaded at great speeds,most of old torrents have seeders surge that means your favourite movie torrent will have less than 5 seeders & is therefore freeleech.
Not having bonus points is very disappointing part of the site & non-rewarding too especially if you are a uploader, if you dont jump early on new torrents & MOTW u are pretty much done plus if you dont have a seedbox you have to be extra cautious with what you are downloading in early days.The site is set in a way that focus isnt on building buffer but average seed size which ultimately make the torrents alive for a long time.
The most appealing feature for me atleast is how organized the tracker is,the torrents are arranged under specific movie title with links to imdb,screenshots & mediainfo, staff are friendly & co-operative.Despite all the drawbacks Teh continues to make its own place & reputation in a tracker universe, it will fulfill your your movie needs.But most of all this tracker is for movie fanatic people like you & me.I absolutely recommend it to everyone after sometime with a bit effort you will get good ratios, better ranks.It may not be the best tracker such as PTP for now but it definately is in top 5.
