What.cd [public apology & hatard note]

[mrnobody]

first of all, this is a public apology to all the 25 users that i invited over there. Since my account got disabled for inviting people over here...my whole invite tree has been disabled. Sorry guys

i tried to get more invites and it all started there

i did what i could, i pm'ed 2-3 mods (who were online) but within a min i my account was disabled...before i had a reply.

i tried to get help from IRC but

and with that, it's a also a hatard note for the lamer here at FST who spyed me over here and reported. it had been a long time i hadn't been pissed off in bittorrent...but now



P.S. if you forgive please post, i am mad at myself ;( If not, still post...i perhaps can improve myself.

EDIT: pretty much these are the people i owe apology and few who PM'ed me. https://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-bit...tracker-244644...
not all them were invited though.

Um I like what.cd but that was pretty lame.

There were no guidelines on how to give out your invites other than don't sell them, and if you invite a cheater you'll lose your invites. They can't say you were breaking any rules.

If the staff are gonna ban users for unspoken rules that's not something I want to be a part of.

I completely understand if they don't want their invites given out on a public forum but this is something you should say FIRST and not after it's already been done then ban them for breaking a rule that doesn't exist!

That's just stupid.

[misledhope]

shame about your account and invites bud.. Guess giving out invites like they are candy is a bad idea though.
Don't know who was watching you here but its a warning to others Give your invites to those you know and trust and don't just advertise to give them away and get rep points. Signups closed at 1500 people for a reason.
Had just replied to your pm on site before hitting the irc chan too.

Hear Hear. Definitely just knocked a notch lower on my respect scale.

[Grind$oFine]

Yeah that is ridiculous, especially after only a couple days, to be this strict...
People complained about OiNK being ban-happy, and OiNK didn't go this far with anything.
I'm giving second thought to this tracker... if they continue on like this, the many members that are giving them edge over the other music sites are gonna be gone, and there wont me much left to it..

squirr3l, I don't think you should be apologizing, you didn't do anything wrong..

[fOrUmAs]

I think he was not banned because of invited,it was becasue of he invited 25 users it short time and he asked for more i forum..and for some users there in forum it was strange and reported him to the staff.

i posted the link of the original giveaway thread. most of them are well known members here...and that makes me more shameful. btw, the guy who spyed can be found on the thread in their forum.

@thejosher and grim thanks for ur input.

pretty much yes, but y would they hand out 25 invites if i am not supposed to use them? as for the "short time".. i think have been here long enough to know whom to trust and whom not to...and i did not invite every user who asked for an invite.

and they would ban the whole invite tree without checking in here?

[thejosher]

I invited 25 users in a short period of time on their IRC after asking for a ratio proof (as did tons of other users)

I'm not sure how this is any different.. does is matter if they do the ratio/email exchange via PM here or via msg on their IRC?

It's also not like they are super-secret or anything.. they even have an invite bot!

That makes no sense?

[xJohnxSmithx]

OMG, don't worry about it squirr3l. What are ya going to do...

[redcorvette]

lmao..they have an entire forum thread over this fight...its pretty funny if you ask me...just because three different people reported him doesnt mean he's done something bad...from that i can assume taht the staff cant make their own decisions.

and also, if my above statements are false...how come there is no special rule for inviting people? just cuz its FST doesnt mean its lame...lol....i got some of the invites to high level trackers from here...

lmao and j0hnd0e is also watching this thread
