generally speaking, you just have to use a halfway decent torrent site (speaking of...is pirate bay still around? it's been a while...), and the comments will tell you before you even touch the magnet link whether it's worth your time or not.
Now, granted, you have to be able to spot legit vs bs comments (hint: you can't just see a tl;dr comment and assume it's legit, you have to actually read through it and gage the info according to the content of the text wall)
all I'm saying is dont assume a text wall is legit.
for instance, if the comments go into detail about problems with the rip, subs, etc., and there are other comments that corroborate (without being straight up copypasta), you can usually gage.
if the comments (if any) are generally favorable, it's usually a worthwhile torrent.
? Yea obviously but that's rare that people make a wall of text.
What's your point?
I think you dont understand mine...I said most torrents do not have comments.
And you responded with something besides my point so I'm confused. .I never even implied I assume comments are ALL legit. Just that they can be helpful

I've used torrents for over 20 years and that is just not true for 90% of torrents.
Most of the torrents I dl have zero comments or just "thanks!"
