Thread: How to contact what.cd admin?

  1. #11
    There is something on my mind that I want to get off though. I think you are dealing with this wrong. I'm no longer trying to get my account back, but I think you should consider this for the future.

    When someone breaks the transcode rule, do you ban them? No, you just take away their uploading privileges and give them a warning, because it is usually a mistake. I invited someone who was already a member, and it was a mistake. Instead of getting a warning and my invites taken away, I was banned. I think the punishment doesn't fit the crime. You don't sentence someone to death for stealing a candy bar, so why have the same punishment for someone who faked their stats and someone who made a mistake? Especially the fact that I had been on the site since it was started and never had any other problems, had a good ratio and even bought a seedbox so I could seed my torrents while I was away at university.

    I think you guys should look over your rules and maybe make some changes or exceptions. If I had an account for a week and invited someone twice, once right after another, then I would agree, that is a member you don't want on your site if they are just going to bring it down.

    Anyways, I'm not asking for my account back because you seem pretty set on not having me back, but I needed to get this off my chest, and if there are any other what.cd members that are reading this, they should know what will get them a ban and what will get them a warn.

    Well you invited the same guy twice... something sketchy is obviously going on, whether he fooled you into giving him another invite or you knowingly helped get him back in. What they did makes sense, to at the very least show the importance of knowing who you invite.

    Just my 2 cents; I learned this long ago, and lost an account (at x264, which also apparently bans FST users as well though) in the process

    What happened was I had re-invited a member I had invited a very long time ago, and didn't check to see if his account had been baned before giving him an invite for his "brother". It was stupid on my part to assume my own friend wouldn't try and trick me, so I am going to be incredibly careful with my invites on all other sites from now on, and less trusting of even friends.

    The IRC chat room seems to be dead, there is no one in there, maybe i did it the wrong, i am using Mirc, check it and see if there is anyone in there for me please.

    I think it was disabled due to inactivity, i had to reformat my drive 2 weeks ago but didn't seed in for a while, i hope they can reinstate it.

    You need to wait there for a while until your question is answered.

    In the meantime, maybe PM a staff member here as well.

    you seems honest and sincere, i feel sorry for you.
    hope you'll find a good replacement.
    whenever people agree with me, i always feel i must be wrong.

    Well i just pm'ed sexten, so lets see, i haven't done anything wrong or else i wouldn't be wasting my time being here, the people i've invited have been invited over a month ago plus i haven't made any comment recently, the only thing i can recall is not being on the site for a while.

    I did got through to them, but my god are they real assholes, serious authority abuse, they say i got banned for inviting a cheater.
