    i totally agree.

    i never traded, but i'm on almost every "high level" (duh) trackers. it's not that hard to join them if you want to participate in their community. ofcourse if you don't enjoy chatting on irc, using the forums, 'they' will never get to know you. but that's good, because private trackers wants active ppl, not the collector guy who login to the site once in a week just for keeping his acc alive.
    you can't spell ballin' without allin

    I don't care as long as the trader is not in my invite-tree and as long as he won't come here moaning and making excuses a la my brother used my account, after losing his account.

    Tracker rules also say don't give your invites to people you don't know. Does that mean people who give invites away here in the giveaway/request section are bad too?
    Go Leafs Go.

    this is my truth, tell me yours.
    Nope, it's not. Staff on lots of trackers do giveaways here from time to time, but I have yet to see staff from a tracker trade for an invite

    I remember when I first started out I traded a little bit but someone showed me that it's not the correct way to do things and shortly, veeery shortly after that I had almost all trackers I wanted and even some I didn't I'd say maybe 3 months after that I was flush. I think it is mostly who you know and don't be a prick

    Couldn't care less personally. So what if people trade, its their decision to be shunned. I don't trade myself, but I don't see a problem with it. All these "moral issues" with trading is just plain bulls*** in my mind
