I’m a very casual sailor, and not very tech savvy, but I’ve torrented and used magnet links in the past with no issues.

I found the file I’m looking for. But things have changed. The site I used doesn’t provide magnets anymore, only Rapidgator links (split into 5 rar files, this is going to take me days) for direct downloads .

Every other link I found sends me to torrent trackers I need to create an account for, such as RuTracker. Which I tried, and with different emails, (brand new emails) yet every time I get rejected. Why? What am I doing wrong? Do I need to wait a couple of hours after creating the account? Are the sites not accepting registrations anymore?

    Does the site you use have the file hash listed?? If so you can use a hash to magnet generator, just google that and you’ll get plenty of hits.
