After a discussion and co-operation with PTP senior-staff, We would like to extend a limited time opportunity to all PTP users for a chance to apply for an MTV account. We fully expect PTP to come back stronger than ever, but we understand this may be a difficult time. PTP holds a special place in our hearts as it does for the community as a whole, and we are excited to see their return :ptplove: :mtvlove:
We are extending this as a courtesy to the community. Please do not abuse this or it will disappear :(
The more information you include, the more likely your application is to be accepted. MTV is in no way to be a replacement for your PTP usage upon their return. Just add it into your rotation as they will compliment each other. Don’t forget after getting accepted, to view your security page to add your 2 factor authentication and/or create an API key for direct input into your *arr instance.
Note: Ensure you use the same exact email address you use with PTP
Even if you don’t have a screenshot of your profile, we invite you to apply. We hope that you still have email access and can take a screenshot of your original invite email as that would also count as proof. If your application does not include either of these, you may still apply but it will require slightly more effort. As at that point we would request you join us on IRC to discuss. As long as there is enough proof to prove you are a current user, you should be able to pass.
I didn’t used to take screenshots of my profiles either. However I have seen enough trackers go down on me where I realized it was likely a good idea to do every once in a while. A good strategy could be to save these screens in your password manager with each particular site.
I appreciate your response. I have been on ptp for probably 13 years or more. I definitely haven’t kept the invite email that long. I got into uhdb through btn earlier this week, so maybe I’ll be alright?
Yeah, always keep invite emails, take profile screens, note down passkey if you’re extra diligent, store a .torrent file or the like. When something happens it’s usually too late to grab the necessary proof so being prepared (if you care about the account or using it for something later) ahead of time is important. As for the screen, update it when something happens (e.g. you rank up or cross some threshold or the like). It’s not crucial but the little bits add to the big picture and helps giving weight to your case in case details are ever needed.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Well, I guess here’s where I find out how dumb I am for not taking screenshots of my ptp stats every so often

12 years here, still have that baby. I never delete emails like that.
Noted!
