These are questions that don't belong in the other sections.
Downloading
How do I download?
In case the Oracle is not in, there are generally 4 sources: from IRC, Bittorrent trackers, filehosts, and eMule.
- To download using IRC, you need an IRC client. A quick guide to downlaoding using IRC can be found here and here.
- To download via Bittorent, you need a bittorrent client.
- To download from filehosts or direct-download sites, you first have to find one (this is where you're on your own).
- To download using eMule, you need the eMule client.
Where do I download from?
In case the Oracle is not in, there are typically 4 sources one may turn to:
- Public trackers (i.e. TT)
- Private trackers (which require registration) and semi-private trackers (such as Boxtorrents)
- Distro IRC bots, which you can usually find in the fansub group's IRC channel (if you don't know where, you can ask AniDB)
- Direct-download websites (I'm afraid you will have to find your own; people generally do not reveal their direct-download sources)
- (You're on your own for eMule, unless someone updates/edits this part since I don't know jack about it)
