Some people on the hdbits and sdbits staff are weird for the following reasons:

[obi]

It's their fucking tracker, let them run it the way they want. Just because YOU don't approve of their exam-esque methods doesn't mean everyone does.

Maybe they want people to know the difference between XviD and 720p before they join the tracker.

But as I said, I passed the small test that I had been required to take after receiving an hdbits invite. What I am complaining about is their attitude toward me when I was in their irc channel: they were constantly calling me retarded in the channel and they told me to check my IQ. I find it weird that they were saying it just because I had less knowledge than they did about high-definition, about PAL/NTSC, and etc.

maybe you are retarded ?

Well to be honest if a tracker wants me take a test prove I am good enough they can sod off. Maybe I should set the tracker staff a test see if the tracker is good enough for me to be on, which I doubt with what I have heard

[obi]

yes , but if you want to be part of a group you should behave by their rules...

Yes people do, but sites also need to realise that if they make to many silly rules and treat people badly they will lose members etc
They make the rules, I know I have made the rules, but the rules need to be workable for the members or pointless really.

This is an interesting question and a philosophical one.

It seems that the hdbits staff is completely different from any other staff in the bittorrent world. The hdbits staff has a unique way of thinking and a unique way of looking at things and I COMPLETELY don't understand their way of thinking. It seems to me that any other staff in the bittorrent world is normal and only the hdbits/sdbits staff is weird.

Have you maybe considered that you are in fact retarted? There are 20,000 members who seem to get by just fine. I seriously doubt that each and every one of those members finds the staff weird. I certainly don't. The forums provide an insane amount of knowledge about video encoding, HDTV's etc. The torrents are always on time and well encoded. You are the odd one out of the group.

Go back to mininova where you belong.

That's the attitude if someone has concerns ( real or imagined ) then berate them.That will solve everything and make them a more understanding and knowledgeable person.

Btw I do agree though that if you have no interest in encoding and a site is devoted to it then it doesn't make much sense to be a member there.
I suggest a good general movie site where the emphasis is on simply appreciating the movies and not on the technical side of things.

I think you are missing the point I am trying to make. The point is that it requires the IQ of a 7-year old kid to have the ability to upload a full blu-ray. Maybe it requires more IQ and knowledge to re-encode blu-rays if you care about quality encodes, but most people don't upload their own torrents; they only try to keep their ratio at least above a minimum requirement and they are truly grateful when great uploaders do their job. No matter how elite a tracker is, it's not an intellectual place. It is just what it is: a bittorrent tracker.

Hdbits is not just about encodes; it has more full blu-rays than any other HD site does.
