im partly in agreement. i think the 5 stars and "staff" in the title, is a little confusing. drop some stars, rename the group. i cant think of anything suitable right now, but it does give the impression they are staff from this site. although i still agree with the idea of it, and think its good for the site.
concerning the way the rest of this thread has gone....wow. i totally understand and respect that these sites dont want their invites to be traded on public forums. thats not what this is planned to be. members have to be registered here for 30 days and have at least 5 posts to post in the invite section. although i personally think its too leniant, it shows a desire to stop noobs coming only for the invites section.
this place is being labelled as scum, as reality said. i think thats pretty damn rude. how many other public forums with a bittorrent invite section are making such an effort to help sites who they have 100% no connection to. filesharingtalk could say screw you, not help, and allow a flood of noobs in to trade/request invites, and in doing so increase the number of visitors it gets. but they are making a good effort to help the wider community, and its being rubbished right through this thread.
if i were to give a member here an invite to 1 of ur "secret" sites, i think that would be better than 101 other ways an invite could be handed out. ive been member here over a year, and have a large volume of posts. i feel i know alot of the members here, and that they know me. so in alot of ways its not very public at all. not everyone here who uses filesharingtalk, or its bittorrent section, are doing bad things against ur private sites. i make many reports about ur sites being mentioned. u should be praising these forums for making these efforts, as its a rare thing, and not something i think u'll see on alot of other sites.
lastly, those members who would leave filesharingtalk because they can no longer trade for certain sites, i say cya then. ur obviously not interested in this community, and come here only to get bt invites. thats not the point of that section of the forums. its for members of this "community" to share with each other. if that part of the forum closed, i'd still visit here daily.
edit: i noticed some now say "cumminity rep" as the title. was this changed then? i think thats more appropraite.

Couldn't agree more there is alot more to FST then the bt invite section. in my humble opinion if that's all your here for then piss off
@RealitY, mods and other respected members: I'm glad to see many of you feel the same about this issue as me...it's why I keep coming back
and @ Halt3r: who the fu** r u? you can't even post in the invite section yet so how can you have an opinion? why don't you stay out of what doesn't concern you
EDIT:
@j0hn: didn't see your post but thank you for saying what i was too lazy to type.

Well all that person needed to do is go to IRC and show some proof for example it could be checked with his IP if it matchs the one on the site and has the same username then I think with out a doubt say that it is that person. I for one dont Ban ppl on first offense since I feel a warning should be given first and a chance for the member to redeem him/her self.
And I think you got it all wrong we dont like banning ppl, but if the rules on the site are broken over and over even when theres sticky's posts in the forums so users can read them and they still go break them that to me is very disrespectful and espeacialy after all the work that it takes to run a site and everything that goes with it ex. uploading releases minutes after there pre'd and actually finding ppl who are willing to pay for a seed box just so they can share there stuff for free with ppl like you the FST members who are members at other sites.
I hope that didnt come out wrong and its from the heart.
@DKre8ive1: you seem like a fair sort and I for one am glad to see you here in your role as a community staff member.
wish i could stick with this thread but i gots to go to bed
anyway all i want to say is i agree with invites being traded here, i found most of my invites in here, i dont think you can stop it by banning people because there are thousands of members in some sites that are good users, and im sure that they wouldn't be there if it wasnt for invites. why do we need invites? to keep out people we dont trust. how can we trust anyone anyway? i wouldnt trust people unless i have been able to trust them in the past.
<-------- yeah thats better.. Community Rep sounds a bit less self-important

you are way to skilled on typing my friend I guess your a rebel
And by a person having multilple accounts to torrentbytes it harms that memeber that is checking back every other day to see if sigh ups are open and if they do open ends up missing out imho.

Still think they should have which sites they represent in their titles, avatars, or sigs.
