Even thought I am not part of FTN community (but i'd like to be:naughty:) I think people should do more research who are they inviting. This is just ridiculous how many people are selling this.

no, its not that good, don't bother!

Same could be said of any tracker or life in general for that matter.

What a surprise.

i mean, wow another FTN thread

Edit: You should be more specific about what part of a quoted post you're referring to.
/fixed :rolleyes:

Waiting for some good input on this matter...I honestly didn't spend enough time in the forums to find out, which could have been a mistake. In the end I decided it wasn't for me, from a filesharing point of view.

The staff should close this thread.Enough is enough.

These kind of threads prove my point stated in my FTN crap thread.

What a surprise.

do you really think tehconnection has a better community?



.............thats what i thought

[bilkenter]

Mate there are even worse people, Ok Brandon is really nice guy at least seems like it just like Stoi, but users ruin the tracker generally, There was a rumour here(still not sure if it is true or not) Someone was accused of using his connections on ftn and fsc to make it harder for certain people to join there. Even rumours make the tracker seem bad...If there are users like this one there, Then scr.... it better reconsider going there again again and again, but most people dont care about the users or how they behave on bt trackers or forums, and join those trackers out of level or the awesome torrents etc. There is this rule that i said earlier that most people use, Seed leech and shut up, this is what most people do honestly. For me, i started to think the same way, who cares? This isnt about community or filesharing, this is about how much torrent you can get, and how rare the stuff are, This is why some people join to those high level tracker. I shall also admit there are nice guyz on ftn or fsc, not like the ones aforementioned, i talk to them on msn, make a conference with our all friends etc, but this doesnt mean the overall community on fsc or ftn is really nice, There are some rotten apples, but some golden apples as well. However, because of those rotten apples, it makes you think whether i shall ever join or not. Lastly, community or friends shall not be just limited to ftn or fsc, There are really nice guyz here or on other forums, You can get to know those nice people and create your own community on msn or such places with those people...

+1 well said, A tracker forum isn't a place for a community.

[stoi]

and why not?

sorry i dont understand that one at all, and thats the problem, members just sign up for tracker for what they can get out of them (the files).

I know i would love a cracking community on BCG, good tracker, good community, we have an Ok community atm, but we can always make it better.

We have got a few things in the works for the forum, if they work they work, if not, bah we tried.

Look I am not looking for invite because I rarely use 0-day trackers. I also know only way for me to get the invite to FTN is to buy it. But I am not interested to. This thread I made because there are a lot of topics about FTN requests and I just wanted to show those who have FTN invite that they should beware who they invite because you can see how people are selling FTN invites!

I personally enjoy FTN's community. Of course,It isn't as good as FSC community-wise by it is still better than others.

[seppypom]

besides, i though you where leaving

[bilkenter]

Honestly, in my opinion, I am not a member on tehconnection, so wont comment on it, But on the other site, i was a member. Before i argue, i shall point out i have no intention of badmouthing the latter site that you mentioned. Honestly, i like their polls, But a community in my opinion is a place where most of the users have trust in other members, Most can give away smt without any hesitation about the user, Also in the site, I havent been around there much on forums, but whenever i logged in to the site, There were only a few people online, Topics were mostly about what is your favourite game, do you smoke or etc... This isnt a community in my opinion, As i said a community is a place where you have no hesitation about most users intentions, where you can give away 1 year rapid or share it without anything in return or such, This is what i call a nice community with unbreakable bonds. Then again. i havent been around there much, maybe i failed to see how great community it was, but this is my opinion

Skizo SPAM HERE! you guyz force others to spam too :S

[Rumblin]

besides, i though you where leaving
only when you stop badmouthing :)

[stoi]

@ bikenter, not everything revolves around giving away RS and invites to other trackers you know.

Actually i think a tracker would be daft to allow that, we want members to stay with us, not piss off somewhere else, or find something that may be better.

I know trackers are not in competition with each other, but for the members we have we want to keep them, so we have to put a stop to some activity.

but saying that we have just made a new external invites forum, so im happy to work with other trackers so we can share some members, but i dont want my members going there, and not coming back.

believe it or not, there are only so many good members that use private trackers, and they are few and far between.

[seppypom]

are you retarded? It was a sarcastic comment to another stupid, pointless thread, from a noob that joined today and has 30 posts already, who cant be bothered to look around for the other 40 threads before posting.

Actually, Stoi what i meant by rapidshare example was the trust people on a tracker have for others, the users doesnt have to give anything, It is all about how trustful you are. His mother may have passed away, he may need help with linux os etc, It is under such conditions that you get rid of this doubt that stays on most supposedly communities. This is when you decide to have faith in that user. To make it more clear about what i meant, Here on fst, Some people are afraid to give invites because they have doubts about the other people in this community. What i mean by a good community with unbreakable bonds was the lack of doubt in a community. As long as doubt and suspicion is not there, i think it is an awesome community, Then again, It will be quite harsh to create such a community, This is why, i think creating your own community on your msn list or aim list is way better, I have no doubts about the people on my list, If they were to ask anything, I wouldnt require a ratio or anything like that from them which shows that i am suspicious of them because i have already put my faith in them. And this faith is the way to a nice community. But as i said it is quite hard to achieve.


Sorry there isnt an order on the post.

[Rumblin]

no, you can point out 40 posts where i am screwing with ppl that are asking about ftn, theres a difference.
no i can point out 5000 of those, but 40 you just being a dick to other people

look up jealousy in the dictionary, it may suit you as a good personality decree

[stoi]

Well we have a buy/sell forum, we have had a few scares but most if not all of the transactions have went through fine.

We have nothing to do with it though, if anything goes wrong, its not mine nor the trackers responsiblitly, but so far so good and its been going for 9 months or so.

in all homesty, im not keen on it at all, and i have been going to close it a few times, but others always talk me around to keeping it open.

but i would say that takes more trust in your community, than an invite. your buying something, for cool hard cash (and no its not invites, it is consoles, games, whatever, nothing to do with torrents or any other filesharing) we even banned members selling FTP server space on there.

also, don't bother joining FTN, as larger userbase will decrease my epenis.

Hmmm... while we've got PtN and TC people here. How about allowing multiple genres per movie. It's annoying to have to skim through all of action and then comedy just to have a chance of finding an action comedy. This isn't a video store, it's the internet, we can do better.

Why Does FTN Not Have A Request Section?

It's a new day, but we are still going round in circles repeating the same words, nothing changes.

[Funkin']

I for one actually enjoy FTN's community very much. I didn't think it would be good at all when I first joined, just from the comments that I've read before about it. But it's active, and there are a lot of friendly members that post in it.

My favorite communities of the trackers I have are:
IPT
BCG
Pisexy
(Some of the nicest members and staff I've met have been from these three sites)
And now FTN's is really starting to grow on me. I'm liking it more and more everyday, and I'm posting in it more everyday. It's definitely way better than some so-called "community trackers" like Scl. :rolleyes:

[sear]

this doesnt mean the overall community on fsc or ftn is really nice, There are some rotten apples, but some golden apples as well. However, because of those rotten apples, it makes you think whether i shall ever join or not.

please keep it that way :dry:

Well in this case it is funner to chill @ the chan then @ the forums. They tend to have a lot of meaningless "I-want-my-post-count-as-high-as-possible-so-people-can-see-I'm-an-active-member-of-FTN-and-this-way-I-might-get-invited-into-FSC" spam @ the forem, which drives me toward the channel more often these days.

I just cannay be ersed to read through all that fodder.

-Sherman

[xenix]

Yes it is a good site. I dont know why people say the site is not good but mayby they have trying to find an invite for years just because everybody else wants it and when they join they expecting to much. Remember, FTN is a torrentsite and should be used for torrenting and not because its a high level site and people beening jelous on you.

[Presto]

If you you think threads a la "What's your HD size?" , "What's your name?" make a good forum & community, then yes. Otherwise I'm sorry, but no. You can't expect a good community from a tracker, where 90% of the members are inactive and log in every two days just so they don't get pruned.

[Legion]

@Anyone that has an acc: if you don't like non of what ftn stands for, you can easily request for disable
@The rest: you gotta realise, this kind of threads are shit and won't get you anywhere. Some are frustrated that it's quite hard to get in...and that's about it

[dunson]

The community is ok. All that stuff about wanting FTN or any other trackers for community is bullshit I think. If I could start a tracker there would be no forum or friends lists or anything like that.

[IdolEyes787]

I think for the most part you are right dunson.Community is just a buzz word that people have learned to used without really understanding what it means.
A tracker with no forums would serve the majority of people just as well.

[The Flying Cow]

A tracker is a tracker.

Forums are places like FST.

That's why I agree with yon coonts. No point in joining Eff Tee En, if you're going for the "community". It's a fucking graveyard, their forem.

Stick to their tracker, and the IRC, as has been mentioned.

I don't think its the best community I am in, but it is one of the better ones :)
There are some very knowledgable people there who are very helpful :)
But that does not make it the best for me

well it is possible to keep a tracker out of tracer channels :)

I was gonna say smt about this earlier...
Isnt F.....supposed to be a secret place? They had to shut down earlier, I am afraid, it will happen again with this much publicity, noone hears uk... because they were shut down once as far as i know... I think ftn is in great danger because of this much publicity though i might be wrong.

Every (elite) tracker is in great danger.
Even though every new tracker tries to hide their url from the outside publicity they can't.

People say they want community, but I don't buy it. The average user just wants free stuff from the site.

To the OP:

The answer is: Yes. I don't need to go into detail, but by far, in all my experience on FST,
FTN members are the most knowledgeable, generous, and leet torrent users I have come
across, bar none. I'm convinced at this point.
