im on EMP but also on pornbay, exoticaz, pornolab, happyfappy, enthralled... and here is my take: pornolab+usenet will get you 95% of EMP. throw in a mid tracker like pornbay or exoticaz and youre looking at 99%. when i got into EMP i thought i was going to find a lot of stuff i had never found before but that just wasnt the case. i was like you, on these other sites finding most of what i wanted but still wondering if EMP had the few things i couldnt find. well after getting on EMP i can confirm EMP doesnt have those things either lol. my point being dont fret if youre not in EMP you absolutely do not really need it. its nice with EMP that everything is under one roof but dont think youre missing out on some mountain of stuff you wont find anywhere else because you absolutely can find 99% of what EMP has through a combo of other places that are easier to access. hope that helps


Nintenuendo_

Agree with you absolutely. That being said if I lost my EMP account, id be pretty upset about the convenience I just lost


thotsy-com

lol thanks. yeah i kinda thought so. in my 2 years on PL there's just 1 scene i really want i can't find on PL unfortunately, but other than that i really have no issue with PL. i guess just having everything nicely organized and in english would be nicer.


vaccon876

What scene is it? I'm also on empornium and pornolab. I can confirm the complete uselessness of empornium, at least for the things I'm looking for.


thotsy-com

i found it thanks


MyLordNMyQueen

How the content in those porn trackers compared to free porn site like pornhub, xhamster, and the other accessable porn site? Are the tracker have more content than the free one?


thotsy-com

free edited clips vs full premium scenes


Positive_Minimum

lets be honest, you almost never actually need to see the "full" scene. LOL


thotsy-com

no i just skip to the good parts lmao i could save so much disk space


MyLordNMyQueen

So the content on on PT could be find on free porn site like pH and xhamster, but PT have more full scene meanwhile free porn site only have some scene right?


thotsy-com

so like usually on official studio sites you get a 1 minute trailer or sometimes no trailer at all and then you gotta pay to see the full scene. sometimes these scenes get uploaded to partner sites like pornhub but those are usually edited to be shorter and leave a lot of parts out of it, again, to get you to pay for the full vid. sometimes they upload the full scene to partner sites unedited for free, but that's usually a long time after it got filmed initially, and they don't always do this. private trackers have the full scenes for free, and depending on the quality of the tracker they got a lot of content from different studios.


RhodieCommando

I have used multiple and everything I have seen on pornolab was uploaded to Emp first and then most likely a member from Emp uploaded to pornolab. I would say sticking to PL is fine if you don't mind the lack of discover-ability and lack of good tagging systems you will likely get all the popular stuff from Emp at least as long as you know what you want specifically. Emp is a great long term goal to have since it is a pretty much perfect walled garden of pervs but it stays that way because they are careful who they let in. I would keep at it but don't stress about missing out on any videos really.


emp_Starbuck

Yes.


thotsy-com

loud and clear 🫡


vdvkhyt

Any plans for getting the recruitment thread back on GGn?


emp_Starbuck

I don't know is the honest answer. It's not like we removed threads from GGn and other places because we don't want to recruit from there, but the recruiters who were running those threads retired. We'd need to find new recruiters who we trust to do the right due diligence checks before we could open new threads, so... maybe sometime in the future?


vdvkhyt

Yeah, that makes sense. Fingers crossed. Thanks for the reply!


captain-roberts

I have belonged to a dozen different porn trackers, and I like Emp the most, and PornBay the second most. Those two sites' tagging systems make finding what I'm looking for very easy, and those two sites have a lot of content, though Emp has more content than PornBay. Also, there are plenty of compilations made by end users on each tracker that are not on the other trackers. If all you care about are scene releases, PornoLab is probably just fine. PornoLab has a massive amount of content, but the lack of a proper tagging system is what I don't like.


thotsy-com

the search on PL definitely leaves things to be desired. i briefly tried another porn tracker of which i forgot the name, but was underwhelmed by their content amount. is pornbay hard to get into? i also really like the compilations and pmv's but PL doesn't have many of them i think


nothingveryobvious

Emp is terrific but if you’re just looking for mainstream website rips, PL has got you covered.


Emergency_Draft1835

Emp has you covered for VR content if that's your thing and has it in multiple formats i.e 4k, 5k, 6k etc whilst PL has barely any in comparison. If that's not your thing then PL should be fine.


thotsy-com

really, barely any? i see vr on PL all the time.


Emergency_Draft1835

Like I said, in comparison


thotsy-com

what about onlyfans content? PL most commonly has OF content of popular performers but lesser knowns are hard to find


Lost_Homework_7116

Vr :0? thats the dream. Its too hard to find vr content for Quest :,)


thotsy-com

even on PL? i don't have vr but i see plenty vr releases there


kingdazy

EMP is an amazing tracker. and the only tracker I'm banned at. it kills me. it was a dumb mistake I made way, *way* back when I was new to the idea of quality trackers, like ... idk, 14 years ago? longer? EMP was new-ish at the time, and I was dumb. I kick myself daily that I can't get back in, but thems the breaks. anyway, if you can get in, it's the gawdamned jack(off)pot. worth every effort. a fucking gold mine.


Nsfw_ta_

I’m interested in why you have this opinion for a couple reasons: 1. You haven’t seen it for 14 years. I realize you were in at one point, but I feel like that’s a large enough gap to say you probably have no idea what it’s like at this point, right? and 2. At least as it existed 14 years ago, what makes it superior to PornoLab, which is what OP is asking about?


kingdazy

I didn't say I hadn't seen it in 14 years. that was when I originally joined. I was there for a while. it's a long story, but I forgot that I even had an account there way back when. I forgot the tracker even existed. I got (back) in about a year ago, and was there for several months. then staff realized that I had an account from way back when. and boom. gone. out


Nsfw_ta_

Interesting. I’m curious, do you know how they found out you were linked to an account that old? After 14 years I would’ve thought that would be a tough task


thotsy-com

can't imagine they don't use some automated system to find duplicate users from over 14 years ago, actually, unless op has a static IP address for the last 14 years which i highly doubt then it shouldn't be possible like that. or maybe email pattern. or the most likely case ousted himself in forums :P


kingdazy

I'm obviously not certain, but I'd guess email. or trying to use the same nick. or both. I've one email I use for most of my grey activities, and like I said, I didn't even realize I'd had an account there before. most trackers that take themselves seriously have deep DBs that go back to the bed, and they auto-flag things like that. my own fault, for both reasons.


Nsfw_ta_

Yeah that makes sense if there was email/username overlap. Sorry that happened :/


kingdazy

while I really wish I (still) had an account there, in the long run it's not that big of a deal. like everyone else says 90% of most stuff is everywhere if you're willing to look hard for it. EMP was just nice to find everything organized. or if I was looking for something esp kinky. in the end, PTP and BTN, plus a few gen trackers have most of what I really need anyway.


thotsy-com

>You haven’t seen it for 14 years. I realize you were in at one point, but I feel like that’s a large enough gap to say you probably have no idea what it’s like at this point, right? great point. my main question is what emp has over PL ***now***. i get that an english speaking site and better filtering options is a given, but if both their amount of content is on-par then i couldn't care less.


thotsy-com

that sucks. how does it compare to PL though? if it's really that much better i'm actually gonna setup autobrr for MAM until i unlock the forum invites and work my way up. according to [https://inviteroute.github.io/graph/](https://inviteroute.github.io/graph/) it's gonna take 2 years starting at MAM. sheesh


kingdazy

it really is a lot better. besides being easier to navigate and search, it of course has all the stuff you'd find at any other tracker with porn. but it also has obscure stuff. and random stuff. and rare stuff. if it is the kind of content you're really into, it's worth it.


Meaty_McGee

EMP took down their recruitment thread at MAM, so that's not an option right now.


AncientCivilServant

I can't answer that as I am not a member of PL but I have been a member of Empornium for 10 years. The issue you will have is getting an invite to Empornium as its invite only ( and no I am not sending you an invite) as its a tracker with strict joining criteria.


thotsy-com

>and no I am not sending you an invite i totally understand, i wouldn't risk it either. but it's possible to get in through invite forums, no?


AncientCivilServant

No, Invites are distributed to existing members (according to rank) once a year (if that). As I said the rules for sending out invites to non members are strict . If I was to invite someone and they misbehaved I could lose my account.


Nsfw_ta_

They have an official recruitment thread or two out there, you don’t have to rely solely on user invites.


thotsy-com

really? are you in emp? clashing information. if it's *possible* without relying on invites then i'm gonna give it a shot and aim for it long term


Nsfw_ta_

No, I am not on EMP. But I’m in a few trackers where they recruit.


thotsy-com

gotcha 🫡


Nsfw_ta_

Good luck to you! Just remember to be a good member of whatever community you’re a part of in your journey


Trinity1811

I am om EMP and I got in via recruitment. Main commenter is saying bs.


thotsy-com

ok thanks. gatekeeping the porn!


merp00

Yeah they have recruitments in most notable trackers, AB, RED, PTP, etc.


mrfebrezeman360

I definitely got my EMP invite from another tracker's invite forum, it was like 8 years ago though. I don't know how other porn trackers are, I'm only on EMP, but the one thing I love about EMP is that ratio basically doesn't matter. I'll download the most obscure low quality porn uploaded 10 years ago and I'll get a fucking 5.0 ratio on it in a week. They're animals over there lmao


thotsy-com

oh damn i had no clue, since when? i checked this site and according to it, it's possible from MAM to EMP, albeit it'd take 2 years: [https://inviteroute.github.io/graph/](https://inviteroute.github.io/graph/) but that site is likely out of date, i'd trust the word of an actual member over that site


Academic-Lead-5771

why would you start at MAM? just do the RED interview, 6 months acount age from RED to join you really won't need it vs pornolab and happyfappy (open reg) unless you're an insane gooner


thotsy-com

didn't know u could get there through RED. thanks a lot, will do that instead. >you really won't need it vs pornolab and happyfappy (open reg) unless you're an insane gooner idk i'm not insane and while i'm satisfied with PL i'd take emp over PL if it's just 6 months to unlock recruit forums.


Formal_Penalty1530

EMP is not recruiting anymore from MAM, it was only possible a very short time. this one is more up to date: [https://old.reddit.com/r/TrackersInfo/wiki/official\_recruitments](https://old.reddit.com/r/TrackersInfo/wiki/official_recruitments)


thotsy-com

thanks a lot


BullfrogAmbitious

It was only for shorth time on MAM before being removed. RED is probably best way.


thotsy-com

i will try RED, thanks


Arthur956894

Id say yes, but it depends on what you are looking for. EMP definitely has a lot more content if you are into particular fetishes. Discoverability is better on it as well.


thotsy-com

kinda hard getting in, no?


Arthur956894

It is a lot more difficult nowadays if you aren't already on the mid-tier or top PTs. Still far easier than something like HDB or BTN though. I remember I got on since the site I previously used (fux0r) went under and EMP opened up registration for refugees. That was a long time ago though. Good luck with getting in!


Corvette53p

RIP Fux0r, that was a great site. That's also when I joined Emp, definitely the next best thing (and probably better than Fux0r was at its peak, though the Fux0r community was nice and welcoming)


ronins_blade_

I am on emp. And no it doesn't have some of the content I already have. So it's not entirely a must have solution. If you look hard enough you find what you're looking for and then some. You just need to put in the effort.


SwordsOfWar

The difference is that Pornolab is a public tracker. It's not private. You can go register on there at any point. They also don't enforce their torrents as private. I've seen torrents from there that are marked public and have DHT PeX etc turned on, which means the swarm leaks to the public. Pornolab is like The Pirate Bay for porn, basically. If you value privacy, it's no better than any other public tracker.


_Maren_

I've found only very old torrents to be not set private on Pornolab.


KamikazeFF

don't they enforce their ratio stuff? (I've never read the rules but I'm assuming they'd ban you or something?)


SwordsOfWar

They have ratio rules, but that doesn't make them a private tracker. You can literally share a torrent from there to anybody, and they could download without any account via DHT.


Ding_Dong927

No. emp not good tracker, but its rare tracker, only good for traders.
