What public trackers do you always add to every torrent?

    That’s a waste of time. The torrent already comes included with the needed trackers.

      I disagree. There have been many times I’ve been able to find at least one peer for torrents that otherwise would never complete. Besides, how much time is copy and pasting really wasting?

        If you are gonna do that you might as well change your torrent client settings to automatically include the extra trackers.

            Just don’t do it if you use any private trackers.

            I’m fairly certain that you could get banned if you put public trackers on a torrent from a private tracker.

              Private trackers generally will flag their torrents as private, allowing only their tracker to connect. But yes, better safe than sorry.
