    18:07 <&feppea> no
    18:07 <&feppea> not for that
    18:08 <&feppea> Disabled because "reson: no reason given"
    18:08 <&feppea> pham!
    18:08 < ilias> so it's a coincidence that all of us were disabled? :\
    18:08 <&feppea> yeah, sure
    18:08 <&feppea> and pigs can fly


    Staff from 3 other trackers have had the same issue.

    Now, if it were a competitive site, I could almost understand. But when it is sites offering a much wider variety of files, then it is malicious and bordering on negligence

    I myself was treated like something less than a user when trying to confront the staff with a potential security issue. I guess they know more than I

    So many trackers, of late, have popped up and began running their sites like the 4rd Reich.

    With activities like this, I will find it amusing to watch PtP's donations start to flounder then fall. No one supports sites that shit on others, plain and simple.

    So sad that these new people, people whom have been in BT 1-2 years,think they know " How it is" and they clearly have no clue.

    I guess they fear other sites stealing their releases...Sorry,I was trying not to laugh.

    Oh well, I intend to watch the fire start,flourish,then burn out as the site finds itself, based on it's on antics,loose the faith and support of it's already meager user

    Seems odd that this could be the case. It doesn't seem condusive to any agenda to ban other site staff. Seems like it would hurt them more than anything really, who knows

    Not cool, IMO. Still, they can ban whoever they want.

    Were they afraid that TC was gonna copy them?

    EDIT: As suggested, they were probably worried that content could be taken from PtP to TC.

    TC: ~3000 torrents
    PtP: ~6000 torents

    I'm back. The downside is that I'm also old now.

    thats kinda what i am thinking. I imagine it has happened to staff from goem and ptn as well?

    i really dont think it is a wise decision by staff, there is no point causing unneccesary hostilities. Also tbh i wouldn't fuck with TehConnection

    Considering your source, I'm not sure how much I believe this(I mean, come on...RP?). But even if this is true, which it doesn't make sense to ban members solely because they are staff at other trackers, it doesn't affect or concern me at all. So this won't change the way I view the tracker or will make me stop wanting to use it.

    It's true as confirmed by TC staff.Also not given the courtesy of a reason even.
    Whatever the supposed justification that part is just wrong.

    Would you happen to know if it is just TC staff or other tracker staff also?
