    Hi guys, basically not sure if this is a taboo subject on here or if we're able to discuss torrents if not I understand.

    Basically I'm trying to download some legal payware aircraft for fsx on pirate bay but when I go to the page theres NO download link only the green button which is for ads, can anybody else explain this?

    cheers

    Click the magnet link.

    Legit downloading on here is ok so is torrenting, just no naughty stuff.

    Under that add should be line: "Download this torrent (magnet link)"

    After the trials, the closing, and the changing hands of Pirate Bay a couple of years ago I think you're extremely brave to trust it any more. I imagine it's very likely an IP farm for less-cautious torrent users these days. Steer clear.

    hi guys, I only really use trusted uploaders on it from time to time. Also there is no magnet link although I have noticed this is on certain uploaders any reason why?

    Put it this way, for using it, you're OK as long as you have a frequently updated IP filter.
    Just look for the magnet link.

    IIRC TPB no longer has a tracker and their magnet links work using DHT.
