TRACKER DESCRIPTION 
BakaBT is a private BitTorrent tracker, focused on East Asian (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) content. Content is quite diverse : Artbooks, Music videos, OSTs, live action and of course Anime series and movies. BakaBT became a private tracker on April 11th, 2017. BakaBT was formed in 2009 after the Boxtorrents extinction. It is the largest anime-dedicated private trackers around.
With 50,620  registered users BakaBT is the largest private anime tracker around. BakaBT is tracking 21,000+ Torrents with 0 unseeded, there are many active members always searching for the best quality material to be able to archive them in the best possible quality over many years and maybe many decades in the future. Forums are always active, and the staff are willing to help whenever you need them and the encoders/uploads are always testing source material for creating the best encodes.
Maintaining a good ratio is not an easy task despite the Seedbonus System in place. Joining BakaBT is very hard. The tracker is completely closed as there is no invite system. One of the best anime trackers in the game along with Animebytes. Highly Recommended.

I see that the review's rating of this tracker is very high, mine would be a little less, maybe 8/10 would be a good score. I'd classify bakabt as an intermediate option on the spectrum of anime trackers: nyaa - bakabt - animebytes. But since nyaa is a public tracker with tons of content, I'm not sure if it's necessary to have account of bakabt, I think trying to get into animebytes would be optimal, but only if you're hardcore anime and manga fan and can't find stuff you're looking for on nyaa. When I search for something on bakabt and then on nyaa, usually it's in both places and I download from nyaa. That being said, the community is really nice and I like the aesthetic of this site - it looks very taseful to me. So it's definitely good tracker, just not "must get into" in my opinion.

I’ve been a member of bakabt for several years, the selection is above average when it comes to anime. As the above poster said, nyaa has a lot more things but I think bakabt torrents are better seeded and for longer duration. 
 

there is a lot of curation of the torrents added, so you can see the staff cares a lot about quality over quantity. I think it’s a good site to join.

This looks pretty neat. I always thought AnimeBytes was the only one around. I'm interested in this.

@KindOfEveryColor @Mystery_Tower

I am asking this question to both of you as you have been a member of this site.

The new account creation system them mentioned,

Quote

Normal Registration is not available at this time. We're moving to an invite based system and are conducting interviews to hand out invites at the moment.

How hard are the interviews? Like, what types of questions do they ask? If ratio proof and speed test proof is what they ask then that would be easy enough to show, if not then what?

Thanks in advance.

I'm also willing and interested to know how to get in the bakabt interviews and preferably knowing how hard they are going to be

[KatakuriSama]

Wow. Never heard of this before. Thanks for the Review.

The site and the community looks beautiful. Can't wait to get in.

I did my interview recently

The waiting time in IRC can be long, around one day. It was my queue after around 5 people were kicked who waited way longer than me but already passed away
Then I got asked if I'm ready and I said yes

The questions were reasonable and fair. Mostly it was about basic rules and how they differ from other trackers
They allow to look at the rules and the wiki at the same time
I passed the interview with minimal preparation

I haven't done much interviews but this one is easy and not evil
