I haven't traded or downloaded any torrents for a while. A week ago I decided to see what's new. I was surprised to see youkanland offline I remembered jam river wasn't as popular at the time but had some good stuff so I checked it out. Their site is really nice. I was able to completely download a DVD. Now when I'm trying to seed it my client says:
I tried logging into the site but it's saying my account is disabled. I contacted the jam river fellows and they responded that my account was disabled due to low ratio. This makes sense, It was a large dual-layer DVD. I responded that I'm actually trying to seed a torrent to increase my ratio. They responded:

Nice. I know it costs money to run a tracker and everything, and maybe I could be persuaded into seeing it from a different point of view, but forcing users to "donate" to increase ratios just seems wrong.
Are there any other dedicated PJ torrent trackers out there?

there isn't afaik just create a new account?
I haven't really much used Jam in a while tbh.. I got fed up with the hit and run mentality (I did keep a shit load of stuff running on youkan, highest seeder in number of torrents by a long margin for quite a while, top 5 total upload... but at jamriver, the seeders count was going down so quickly, frankly wasn't worth my bandwidth and I kept it for youkan. Now youkan is dead and I can't be bothered re-hashing everything on jam. when I did try, before a crash lost my uploads, several people moaned or PMd me within 24 hours when I stopped seeding, because I'm not running 24/7 due to electricity costs.. fuck'em! if you can't wait for the 1 person that seed the torrent to come back online for a few hours, go look somewhere else!)

Hi Travis!
Zomb and Trader's Den and Dimeadozen all have a bit of PJ. They are not dedicated to PJ but you can probably find what you want between the three of them.
before clicking, reading what you just posted, i thought the new msg night 1 2008 2cam mix was up. it's the '00 that's being torrented. ya got me man!
theres a 2cam mix of this coming? or was the other one 2cam?
it's all 1 cam for both nights. but have heard timbits from the force that there are other sources in the distance of thy nights in nyc. maybe this year, maybe next year etc.. a 2 or 3 cam mix, will arise in the sunset! maybe! sorta! ok, i have no fogyest idea when but let's hope so!
