Tracker-Invites.us is a lesser-known torrent invite forum that is rarely (if ever) open for public registration. With nearly 2,000 members and growing, T-I is a strong community with a focus on private tracker invites & related discussion. Doors are open for the next 24 hours. http://tracker-invites.us/register.php.
Here at T-I, quality and community are our two main objectives. Tracker-Invites.us provides something that no other Invite Forum has to offer. The ability to form relationships based on experience and trust with others users. The blank-faced invite forum is a common thing on the internet, where people risk their accounts by giving invites to strangers just so they can try and get onto that one dream tracker, only to find out a few weeks later that user they gave one of those rare invites to has already had 6 accounts previously and has been banned en masse by all the worth-while trackers, effectively damaging your ability to be part of any decent tracker ever again.
This often happens at invite forum communities and people inevitably run that risk when participating within these kinds of sites. Often many users face serious repercussions when becoming involved in generic invite forums. This is due to the fact they participate in a site where climbing to the top and gaining reputation as quickly as possible, without concern towards the trackers they participate in, has many negative effects including: banning, removal of all invites ever or serious warnings. Truly this is what separates T-I from other forums. With a healthy dose of community, we all take care of each other. We are everywhere and we make sure that the health of our members, of our accounts, and the health of the sites we have accounts on is the most important thing that concerns us.
If you are a ratio cheater, or a collector who trades whatever they want to get whatever they want, with no regard for the trackers you are on or the people you betray, this community is not for you. If you’re a positive, active, responsible person who would like to be apart of all the wonderful sites that are available and who treats these respected trackers with the respect they deserve, then Tracker-Invites is the community for you.
Our Rules are fair and simple; we welcome every corner of the Torrent World, from the n00b to the Ring-Masters! It’s a place you can find whatever you want… and a place where you can help people like yourself, the right kind of people, on the way to that dream tracker.
Tracker-Invites.us - A Look Inside…

User Classes (Ranks) — Very laid-back user ranks, without implementing a rep count. Ranks are applied as postcount, as followed:
- Juniors: 0 - 29 posts.
- Users: 30 - 99 posts.
- Power Users: 100 - 199 posts.
- Elites: 200+ posts.
- VIPs: Are donators, or have been appointed by staff.
Non-Trading — Specifically, a non-trader forum. Invites or accounts cannot be traded (or sold).
Invite "Giveaways" — Many GA threads are continuously updated by the author (as seen by the [Updated Regularly] tag on the thread).
Tracker Reviews — Currently lists a whopping 262 different tracker reviews.
History — Tracker-Invites.us originally began in 2008 as Invites-System.org. The site was down for a period of time and resurfaced under the new domain earlier in 2009. Invite trading was also abolished during the transformation.
Last words: Tracker-Invites.us is not a place where you’ll find discussion pertaining to Usenet, Limewire or other P2P - it is solely devout to private trackers. Activity is quite high for such a small community, and invite GAs are well organized as well as high quality. As an added bonus, they don’t overdo it on the rules, either.
