What you think about trading

Well CR are still here, we just have not got any stars like before.

I think the main problem is, New Members cant PM anyone, never mind CR, so they bring it into the forums, yeah they cant read, or make 1000 new threads (so that doesnt mean they would have PMed the CR anyway i suppose lol) but a better chance back then, than now, saying as though they cant.

as for (invite) trading, it has its place, and invite forums, are not the places.

its not so much it goes on, its more the fact of where it goes on.

I've stopped offering invites here, unless I find someone really worthy of an invite. Only SPU's/Elites at the various trackers I use regularly get my invites, as they're the only people I can trust.

it seemed like back when com reps had their stars though they were more active and actually gave a fuck. now it seems like only a few of you even bother posting here anymore.

Off topic rant here, but...

You see many people here requesting invites, saying they're great members at other trackers, and their request isn't being fulfilled. Take for example, What.CD. I personally see requests for it very often. Why don't the "good members" take an invite to Stmusic, become power user there, and then get the free invite? Or why don't they just go through the IRC invite system? Were they banned before? Do they not have the knowledge to get into What.CD? IMO, if they can't do either of these options, they do not deserve an account. They don't show the dedication needed to become a useful user at What. What respectful torrenter needs a giveaway if they can just do one of the two options?

/End rant at useless noobs at FST.

I've been a What user for about a year and I had no idea they offered invites through irc or Stmusic. I don't agree that people don't deserve an account because they lack the information to get a legitimate one (i.e. not through the trade forums).

Under most circumstances I'm against trading invitations, but I can think of at least one situation where a trade would be okay.
