I've never had any problems with OiNK staff. I upload my own rips, post in the forums, and hang out on their IRC channel regularly. They run a great site, and as such have to be strict on what gets uploaded (especially since everyone has upload privs.).

Those complaining about being disabled for nothing, have you tried getting into contact with a staff member? Chances are, you were disabled for a reason, whether it be cheating, uploading transcodes or files against their rules, or whatever.

something tells me that the people who were disabled "for no reason" wouldn't have been disabled if they had read the rules. that goes for most of them but sometimes you get a cheater in your invite tree and you get burned with everyone else on it. thats why i always prefer getting invited to strict sites by admins only, makes life much easier not having to worry.

yeah OiNK staff can be very cooperative and nice at times. they can be very unforgiving too.
they are nice when your account gets stolen, and they will let you explain yourself if it is disabled.

BMTV is usually the site that gets ripped on for bad staff and being banned for no reason. With Oink if you don't have an inactivity problem, don't trade accounts, becareful what you upload, and don't cheat your usually fine (so basically follow the rules) you really don't have a problem.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm more than happy and willing to help users who ask for it, and are willing to help themselves. I've demoted a lot of users for uploading transcodes, and I can count on one hand the number I've refused to re-promote when their warning ends. Every time I see someone complaining about what jerks the OiNK staff are, it's after they've done something wrong and been called on it. For some reason, we're wrong for enforcing our rules. Or, things like this:

what nice ppl???? they disable my account with no reason !!
sad day .. no one can help me now. "NICE STAFF" yea.

He was told exactly what happened to his account - it was deleted for inactivity (not disabled). The rules for keeping an account active are clearly stated in the FAQ, yet again, it's the staff who are a**holes, somehow.

Don't believe everything you see on this forum. We don't have the time or desire to point out every lie told here (*coughnickmash232cough*), but just like with Niv-S, there are multiple sides to a story.

I heard that some of FST-ers had some problems with OiNK Staff. Well my friend has come across a problem and had some very good experience with one of 'em. He uploaded a transcode by accident. He got a warning and his privilege was revoked. Don't get me wrong: he deserved it: it is in their FAQ not to upload a transcode or check before uploading. But it was long time ago. When he turned to the Staff in a respectful manner to get his privilege back he was handled in a professional and very friendly way. He was asked some questions (he was to get back his privilege if answered correctly) about transcodes (why is it bad, how to avoid it next time etc.). He (being a thorough man) looked up all the stuff about transcoding and lossless music. It was useful, it was educational. And it was amzingly fair. Not like for e.g. BitMeTV
Bravo, OinK!
