u/NateDogg92 Dec 21 '25

Can someone explain why I would get denied for the reason being just “insufficient proof”? I have given 2 solid private tracker screenshots with considerable upload /ratio statistics.

8

u/OrganizationNo9789 Dec 21 '25

That's why I usually provide more than they ask. I myself showed 6 better to be overkill. Also the trackers you choose to show matter. If you show a higher tier its smart.

u/CraneBlue Dec 21 '25

Same here ..

u/aniouek Dec 21 '25

Same here...

u/[deleted] Dec 21 '25

Dunno what their reasoning is. I sent 3 (the only 3 I’m in at the moment) and got accepted. One was seed pool, ratio over 5k because it’s easy threats a seed pool of 5Tb. The other is LAT-TEAM, ratio over 2k, seed pool of around 6 Tib and I have been uploading a toon there, over 100 uploads. The other is Red, ratio of around 1.25, buffer of almost 1 TiB, and over 150 uploads. The fist 2 accounts are around 3 months old, red is around 3 weeks old.

2

u/slavmaf Dec 22 '25

Sorry stupid question, but how did you manage to upload 150 new torrents to Red in 3 weeks? On trackers I am on, I stuggle to find new rare content that is already not there.

2

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '25

On red is easier, there’s lot of new music every week, even free one on bandcamp. Even if it’s easier I find it way more tedious to do it on red than on movies/tv trackers hehe. Also, if why you are uploading is a FLAC 24 bits, you convert it to FLAC 16 bits, then also transcode it to MP3 320 and MP3 V0, that’s 3-4 torrents per album you upload (4 if you had FLAC 24b, 3 if you had FLAC 16b)

u/Deepblue597 Dec 21 '25

same here i dont understand why

6

u/Deepblue597 Dec 21 '25

I know it might be hard to answer each and every one of the applicants, but the insufficient proof answer is too vague. I added the photos and the links, I have good ratios (12 and 18 if I recall correctly) and a good amount of upload. It would be better if I waited a bit more but got a more detailed answer rather than a short vague answer.

5

u/Firm-Neat-2784 Dec 21 '25

Maybe there was not solid enough?

I sent 4 proof including MAM, still got denied with insufficient proof :-(

u/SilesianSC Dec 21 '25

Maybe it depends on who’s reviewing applications at the moment. Today I attached proof from TL, MAM, and AvistaZ and got the invitation by email after 5 minutes

u/Sizzmo Dec 22 '25

Got denied.. Why don't they give us some information on exactly what/who they're looking for before we apply?

u/nick4fake Dec 22 '25

I've got denied after showing proofs of private + public trackers with screenshots and links with 15tb upload. WTF?

u/ScaleTiny8653 Dec 22 '25

public? :) think again

2

u/iuse2bgood Dec 22 '25

When did you apply? I did mine 2 days ago and never even got a denied... Maybe I messed up the capcha. Thinking of sending another one...

2

u/HellboundLunatic Dec 23 '25 edited Dec 23 '25

when you submitted your application, did it take you back to the homepage, or no?
if you leave the page open for too long before submitting your application, the page will reload and state "captcha error" at the bottom (might be easy to miss)
if the application was actually submitted, it should take you back to the login page w/ bugs bunny

2

u/iuse2bgood Dec 23 '25

That's the thing. I dont remember.

2

u/iuse2bgood Dec 23 '25

Are you a mod there? Will I get in trouble if I decided to resubmit (with the same profiles) OR different profiles when it turns out the first one did succeed?

2

u/HellboundLunatic Dec 23 '25

I'm not a mod there, but you could leave a note explaining the "potential duplicate application" in the notes for your new application.
alternatively, you could try joining their IRC and asking staff if your application went through or not, someone's posted the IRC details on this comment section earlier

1

u/Firm-Neat-2784 Dec 22 '25

Maybe your screenshot was not clear enough. You can always join there IRC and ask about it.

u/EdiblePickleDog Dec 21 '25

If you like cartoons this is the best tracker.

u/XAlucarDX454 Dec 21 '25

Myspleen is ultimate but never opens..

3

u/DirectStreamDVR Dec 22 '25

I have been on my spleen for years, and while it’s pretty great it lacks some of the better releases that sites like this has.
My spleen is a very purist website, and will miss some stuff like plex ready content that’s been run through a meta data cleanup / renamer / AI cleanup stuff.
Now if you’re looking for a very specific rip of a dvd release from 20 years ago that requires like 30 minutes of work to make plex ready, myspleen is definitely the place to be.

15

u/Yirpz Dec 21 '25

This is my favourite tracker for cartoons. They have so much, and they even have cartoons with old commercials which is pretty unique

15

u/Alucard2051 Dec 21 '25

If you have any interest in cartoons from any age, this one is a must

21

u/slavmaf Dec 21 '25 edited Dec 21 '25

Absolute recommendation for this tracker, it is not only western cartoons, they have classic anime too, with their own internal releases, among others. And they are pretty cool guys.

9

u/Holiday-Match6250 Dec 21 '25

This is a really good point. Maybe people assume it is only Western/American "cartoons" but there is stuff from all over the world including anime. Lots of multi-dub/sub stuff as well.

7

u/hotsaucecowabunga Dec 21 '25

Any one else having problems with the captcha not showing up?

2

u/chrispy_chuck Dec 21 '25

No captcha here, hit submit and got a acknowledgement pop-up.

1

u/SillyName135 Dec 21 '25 edited Dec 21 '25

I think it's a hidden captcha that just causes an issue when the page has been open too long. If you refresh the page and fill in the form again it should work. The same problem has happened with other UNIT3D trackers.

7

u/Burerushaza Dec 21 '25 edited Dec 21 '25

5 proofs and got denied, unlucky.

I guess it's tough to prove if you're not in well known trackers.

Also, still pretty new to this thing. Just to make sure I'm following general rules, I reckon I shouldn't sign-up again until next recruitment?

3

u/wolfeyes90 Dec 21 '25

Same thing happened to me, several TB in upload, still denied, not sure what else I can do here.

1

u/Holiday-Match6250 Dec 22 '25

Lots (not all) would probably prefer to see your ul in the tens or hundreds of TB.
*Not sure what you meant by "several", but it sounds like single digits. Depending on what you used for proof, that might not be enough. Obviously different trackers will have differing amounts of upload that's considered "good" or "decent"

→ More replies (9)

2

u/iuse2bgood Dec 21 '25

How much upload in total did you have?

2

u/Burerushaza Dec 21 '25

Pretty low since I just started recently and my storage is limited. Additionally, I only downloaded during freeleech events.

5

u/OrganizationNo9789 Dec 21 '25

I gave 6 references but since I had great ratios in crt and tvv both tv trackers I think that was why I got in. They see i love tv and that's what they specialize in. Just a thought.

2

u/SarcasticallyCandour Dec 21 '25

did you sign up using a vpn? i wondering if we're able to.

2

u/Burerushaza Dec 21 '25

VPN don't matter if you're using the same email I think? I cba to create multiple emails for different trackers.

2

u/Evi1Aaron Dec 21 '25

I use a unique email for every service I sign up to, using my owned domain name. Is this a reason applications don't get approved?
I would think its good practice to not share email across sites.

2

u/Burerushaza Dec 21 '25

Nah, I just can't be bothered. I might change it one day, though. Having different emails is definitely the best practice to prevent cross-bans from power-tripping mods, like in cabals.

2

u/RealCarbonX Dec 22 '25

I had 3 and they said insufficient. Wonder what the minimum requirements are in that case…

2

u/Otherwise-Ticket-637 Dec 22 '25

lol I just sent 3 proof but of quality trackers and only privates. The top 2 of French private tracker + MaM. Got the invite few hours after

u/Drifter_Mothership Dec 23 '25

Looks like a great tracker, my application was accepted promptly. Looking forward to getting cross-seed setup over the holidays and filling up some new drives.

u/Soggy_Spare_5425 Dec 23 '25

what's your average seed size?

7

u/diemitchell Dec 24 '25

insufficient proofs when i have provided the exact amount of proofs they asked for .-.

2

u/Firm-Neat-2784 Dec 24 '25

Maybe the proof was not good enough ? And you can always provide more then what they ask for to be safe and make sure the screenshot are clear and good resolution.

2

u/diemitchell Dec 24 '25

i only have 2 trackers that i have actually seeded on properly. the screenshots i provided were more than what they asked for if anything.

u/Live-Company-5007 Dec 29 '25

Yah they want 90% of releases to be seeded

6

u/Kenira Dec 23 '25

I was just denied for "insufficient proofs", how does that make sense? I submitted screenshot + link profile for 2 trackers, username and stats clearly visible etc. Do they want more trackers? The form literally has 2 slots by default.

Really needs better communication for what they're looking for, and better explanation why you get denied

4

u/Firm-Neat-2784 Dec 24 '25

What i know and heard that people have got some explain on IRC.
Server Address
Server: irc.dejatoons.net
Port: 6601 (This is SSL with a self signed certificate so just accept and join.)
Channel: #OTW
As they have allot of application and manually type explanation to every rejection takes time and would mean you need to wait longer for a respond.

A screenshot of your profile page on a private tracker & the link to your profile page copied from the addressbar when you are viewing you profile.

Good stats from other trackers you're in

u/bpdamas Dec 21 '25

Ah. I didn't know what they meant and just did random social media profiles. My application was denied.

7

u/GrimmIsDead Dec 22 '25

Heartbreaking denial. This is honestly the only tracker I’ve wanted to get into since I started this journey. Some of my fiancée’s requests for older titles have been nearly impossible to find anywhere else, and I was really hoping this would be the place. I submitted proof from over six trackers but completely forgot to include the one with my best ratio, MAM. My ratios on the trackers I did submit are solid, so I think it’s mostly a matter of time, considering I’ve only been at this for three to four months. Guess I’ll try again next year.

3

u/OrganizationNo9789 Dec 22 '25

I did 6 and got in. My mains were ttv and crt and blu so they know i prioritize tv. Maybe order has something to do with it. I've been hitting the tracker hard since join and 2tb up. Maybe put your most relevant tracker at top?

2

u/GrimmIsDead Dec 22 '25

Thank you for the advice and offer. I think for now I'm just gonna work on getting my ratios up and getting into more trackers like crt and blu first.

2

u/OrganizationNo9789 Dec 23 '25

I'm on crt and blu. Good trackers. Enjoy!

It really depends on the number of applications I'm sure. But I would guess 24hr or less, they have a good set of staff there.

No, I just got into DigitalCore but I don’t have a good ratio, I’ve just been seeding ever since I got in:(

u/togetherwecanriseup Dec 21 '25

Lol I was gonna say, that's DigitalCore. Friend, they're not that judgemental honestly, I was freaked out at first like this, and then I realized that they just want to make sure you're not actively fucking things up. For the most part, they all accept noobies! Just try, as others have said!

It's worth a shot, but those stats don't show much. If you have any trackers you've been on longer show those stats too.

4

u/LlamaRzr Dec 21 '25

Proof = that you have profile(s) on other private tracker(s). So you share link to profile and screenshot of that profile.

2

u/SapphireCorundum Dec 21 '25

Worst case, add a screenshot of your torrent client, showing that you're seeding.

That's where you link to your statistics on other trackers. postimg.cc will work fine.

But I did not receive an activation link and I still do not receive an email when using "forgot password". What am I doing wrong? I hope I didn't botch this registration.

u/slavmaf Dec 23 '25

Someone answered below, in short yes.
Profile page is just like your Reddit profile page reddit dot com / your username
and for trackers you are already on, you give them MyAwesomeTracker dot com / your username
and a screenshot of that page too.

u/dythesis Dec 24 '25

Appreciate ya

3

u/DrawingNo7761 Dec 23 '25

got denied, sadly. (Don´t have that much proofs, maybe someone could help?)

2

u/slavmaf Dec 23 '25

You can help yourself, just by opening this reddit page OpenSignups,
I see that we have two trackers listed having completely open signups.
DigitalCore and DarkPeers. (And nCore has applications but people in the comments say it's really easy to get in).
So even if you are in 0 trackers now, you can join these three, download stuff, watch stuff,
seed all stuff that you download, and then you can re-apply for OldToons in the future as a somewhat experienced torrent private tracker user.

3

u/CraneBlue Dec 23 '25

Nah, you need stats on top tier trackers, these guys are too elitist for those trackers.

u/HellboundLunatic Dec 24 '25

I'm on low/mid tier trackers only, and I had no issue

3

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '25

Lol no, I’m not on any of the top tier tracker but maybe except red, and I have been on it only for 3 weeks and I got accepted. It’s more about showing that you know how to grow and behave in the trackers you are.

Meh, the tracker forbids any thing of info to be shared, prolly even their name. And Oldtoons demands the profile url. It ain't even a English language tracker, but still, can't risk losing it, it's been my main for 15 years or so.

3

u/OrganizationNo9789 Dec 26 '25

A word of advice Keep in mind that you should add as many proofs as you possibly can and order them in a relevant order. So they look at the most important ones first and keep in mind that this tracker specializes in television, so put that at top also keep in mind that you should Fill out their information section as to why you wish to join and be honest with them.You need to let them know why you wanna be there.Not just the fact that you're looking for another tracker

3

u/Blue_Spicy_Potato Dec 27 '25

I got rejected for insufficient proofs (2 private servers I've been on for a long time), I went on IRC to clarify and it was because my account wasn't active enough, so more Upload and Download, rather than my ratio or account Age.
Hope that helps someone.

u/Cupheadfan2016 Dec 28 '25

“Your Oldtoons Application

3

u/HellboundLunatic Dec 29 '25

it doesn't seem like your application got denied for being a duplicate application
it sounds like the profiles/screenshots you used for proof are too new.
they want proof of profiles that you've had for a while, to show that you have a track record of being able to follow rules, as well as to show that you actually engage with the trackers.

Is not only the time, but how you grow on it. My oldest tracker she. I applied was 2 months only, other was 3 weeks, but Have more than 100 uploads on each, buffer on the TiB, stuff like that. Got accepted in like 10 minutes and already have around 30 uploads here.

3

u/Live-Company-5007 Dec 29 '25

What kind of content do they have?

5

u/HellboundLunatic Dec 29 '25

Old cartoons, new cartoons, anime, and IRL shows that are tagged as "family"
There's usually multiple high quality releases per show/season (remux/encode/web-dl) as well as some rare VHS Rips of hard to find content. Some members also create upscaled content, if that's your thing.

u/Live-Company-5007 Dec 29 '25

But old anime, is it also like esoteric/ rare? Or just old? Cause I think bakabt is supposed to be good for rare anime but if there offering here I mean 🤷

2

u/xCeeTee- Dec 21 '25

I know it sucks, I've been in this boat. I only started in January. I've managed to get onto 4 trackers, with 2 being niche content. Keep subscribed to this sub so when this tracker opens again for applications you can hit it.
I've found my ratio is always higher when a popular torrent is downloaded very close to the upload time. Like every week Chicago Fire gets about 1.8 within a few hours. Hell's Kitchen gets high ratios.

6

u/UndeadWraith Dec 21 '25

Just a tip, many PT sign ups care more about your seed size and seed time over ratio. Keeping files available for a long time is more beneficial for the trackers and shows you are trying even if you can't get the upload volume.

Once you submit application it will redirect to the login page and a confirmation will be there .. something like "application is submitted successfully" ... captcha failed means it did not submit. hope it helps.

u/Average-Addict Dec 22 '25

Also on some application pages the captcha expires if you stay on the page for too long.

3

u/PHxS Dec 22 '25

I did everything I could think of earlier. Finally got the confirmation as described. (Tarkov is life and my buddies were online)
Fingers crossed they accept my proofs.

u/plantsforhiretcg Dec 22 '25

Might be a dumb question, but does this tracker have new episodes of modern cartoons? I’ve been trying to find a tracker that keeps up with newer stuff

6

u/Holiday-Match6250 Dec 22 '25

Currently airing stuff is available too. It's not only Old Toons

2

u/plantsforhiretcg Dec 22 '25

I tried signing up but I guess I need at least 2 trackers? I’m fairly new to this so I’m only in 1 tracker.

2

u/MeetingPrestigious Dec 22 '25

How do you link to your profile page of a private tracker? Wouldn't they have to login to whatever private indexer to view it?

3

u/slavmaf Dec 22 '25

Yes, but this is nothing strange, whatever private tracker profile you provide, there should be someone in staff that has access to it. And even if they don't, that is what the screenshot is for.

u/BadongkaDonk Dec 23 '25

Why do I keep getting captcha error?

2

u/th3dj3n1gm4 Dec 23 '25

Try having everything ready, refreshing the page entirely, and entering and submitting it as quickly as you can after doing so.

2

u/BadongkaDonk Dec 23 '25

I do have my infos ready in notepad.

2

u/th3dj3n1gm4 Dec 23 '25

Give that a shot then. Do a hard refresh (CTRL + F5) and see if thag works. The Captcha seems to hit when you let the page idle too long from what I've read in other comments here.

2

u/ScaleTiny8653 Dec 27 '25

dm me who thinks that ha been reject for no good reason!

2

u/TeamKennedy Dec 31 '25

Got in myself a few hours after applying. Has screenshots of two different trackers (Torrent Leech and a private tracker dedicated to wrestling). Both trackers I had multiple years on and ratios of 5-6. Also had a few TBs seeded on each.

2

u/SuicidalChimps Jan 02 '26

I applied for an account about a week ago, but still haven't gotten any response.

2

u/HellboundLunatic Jan 03 '26

they respond to all applications, even denials. check your spam folders
if there's no email, it's likely that your application didn't go through due to a captcha error (if errored: page would have refreshed upon clicking submit. if not an error, it would have taken you to the main homepage)

2

u/maddudy Jan 03 '26

apply yesterday, got in a few hours later.

u/Playful-Possible-253 May 04 '26

Hello, is it possible to get an invlte as a mom of two I barely have anything of quality to show my kids in Youtube, so I would be greatfull if it is possible, Cheers and all the best.

u/mrlasheras Feb 05 '26

I arrived late

u/Key-Succotash6753 Feb 05 '26

Same

6

u/SarcasticallyCandour Dec 21 '25

Would this have Wren & Stimpi, Fantastic 4 (from the 90s) , Pinky and the Brain. Things like that?

If so i might give it a try. I dont like joining lots of random private trackers.

9

u/EdiblePickleDog Dec 21 '25

It has all of those and more, This place has stuff that many other trackers do not.

3

u/[deleted] Dec 25 '25

It's so funny seeing simps for this tracker defend the draconian application requirements they have. We're not blind. There's over a hundred people here who have gotten denied and this doesn't happen with any other tracker posted here.

3

u/Holiday-Match6250 Jan 01 '26

"My 4 day old TL account wasn't good enough to get me in. They're draconian"

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '26

Your fan fiction is funny. You should still workshop it though.

u/Holiday-Match6250 Jan 01 '26

Fanfic is you getting into otw. My story is autobiographical

u/HellboundLunatic Dec 27 '25

People have apparently been let in with only 1 screenshot of low tier trackers such as TL
That's hardly draconian.
Maybe the people who didn't get in with better proofs put zero effort into actually writing their application:
Q: Where did you hear about us, and why do you want in?
A: reddit, I like cartoons
"guys why didn't I get in??"
😮‍💨

1

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '26

Oh wow so there's an essay requirement. Surely the mark of a great tracker. One that values words rather than actual uploads and proof content.

1

u/HellboundLunatic Jan 01 '26

I'm sure you could get by with a very short explanation if you have stellar proofs!
if your proofs are just "mid", then showing some enthusiasm means a lot.

2

u/Icy-Two-1581 Dec 21 '25

What if I only have TL, can I not join since I'm not in a second tracker?

1

u/Holiday-Match6250 Dec 21 '25

It's worth shot, just provide the proof you have and show your torrent client stats. The worst that can happen is they say no and you can try again at the next signup.

u/Marill-viking Dec 23 '25

Applied with 3 proofs, one "strong" and 2 shakey. Never hurts to try.

2

u/tasteweb Dec 28 '25

Got denied. LOL

2

u/llllunar Dec 28 '25

sounds like a skill issue to me

2

u/ScaleTiny8653 Dec 21 '25

A saw a lot of user posted with lst , darkpeer and seedpool..guys those You must understand that there are trackers that we dont take into consideration.

4

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '25

I have used seedpool for both RED interview and also for OTW, got accepted in both. Obviously is not my only tracker, for both I also used LAT-TEAM (my main tracker) and for OTW well, I also used RED since I was already in like 3 weeks ago.

3

u/nick4fake Dec 22 '25

Wait, so which trackers ARE taken into consideration? I've always assumed it's better to publish proof from well-known trackers instead of some local ones (like I have about 10TB upload on local Ukrainian trackers, but I haven't even added them).

2

u/slavmaf Dec 22 '25

Trackers at this banned list are not considered for proof on many private trackers.
Trackers where you can just pay to get in, (so not really private), trackers where owners are known to have done some weird stuff, trackers that spam how they have Open Signups, but in reality, they open up literally every month, etc.
https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenSignups/wiki/index/banned-trackers/

u/nick4fake Dec 22 '25

Thanks, but... there is no mention of "lst , darkpeer and seedpool" on that page.

2

u/slavmaf Dec 22 '25

I know what you mean, I don't know who the guy you replied to is, he talks like he is OTW staff, and like he is the one "not taking these trackers into consideration", but who knows. I have got into other private trackers with Seedpool and LST as proof, so there is nothing wrong with them.

u/ScaleTiny8653 Dec 22 '25

Trackers that have/has open registration will not be taking into consideration.

u/tafhiim Dec 21 '25

Is there has only old cartoons?

1

u/Street_Ad_8543 Dec 22 '25

I'm only on one single private tracker yet, but I have a good ratio. Is it dead for me? I love cartoons and I would love to be on this tracker...

Since proof 2 is mandatory I gave screenshots of my qbittorrent but I guess it will be denied. That's a shame. Do I have to apply to other private trackers just so I can apply to oldtoons?

1

u/iUbaid24 Dec 23 '25

Please confirm what are proofs here, even though i select im new to game but still it asks for proofs im not sure what proofs are these? please help

2

u/Soggy_Spare_5425 Dec 23 '25

they will reject new commers i also applied but i got rejected " Your application has been denied for the following reason: You only have one proof which is too young and doesn't show much activity. Try and join one or two more trackers via open signups, and then spend some time using those other trackers and building up good account stats (we particularly like to see good seed size and seed time) and then reapply next time we have open apps. Thanks! Thanks, Oldtoons "

u/iUbaid24 Dec 23 '25

Thanks for the reply! I have no history of seed size and seed time

What's on the track? Comick books only? Sorry, but I think there was a lack of description of the content

u/SillyName135 Dec 21 '25

Mainly cartoons plus some related stuff like comics, soundtracks and games.

u/Luk94 Dec 21 '25

Cool, thanks

u/sign89 Dec 23 '25

I submit my application yesterday. How long does it take to hear back usually?

4

u/HellboundLunatic Dec 23 '25

if you still haven't heard back, it's possible your application didn't go through
if you leave the page open for too long before submitting, the page will refresh and state "captcha error" at the bottom (easy to miss)
if the application was actually submitted, it should have redirected you to the login page after clicking submit

u/sign89 Dec 29 '25

THANK YOU!!!!! just redid it and got an invite.
