This is internet, you don't know who is who or what somebody did before he joined this site unless that somebody says it. But would you belive it and what does it matters ? There are forums & hubs i know where everybody is a moderator if he is from yeasterday on internet or for the start.
There are people here I know loads about and I have given them invites to sites. They have done the same for me. There are also people I have given invites to :earl:. I always thought that was the point of private trackers. If they are to be swapped with strangers then just make them public.
I have acctually visited the country in question 13 times in the last 5 years. Each time there were in fact 12 year olds with guns. If some of them were even that old. Maybe you go to a differant side of the country that doesnt participate in war as much.
I know the differance between the 2. Lookup my name on google search for refrences if needed. Check info about scene busts from JUNE of this year.
Maybe this topic is getting a little off the original subject??
As stated in previous posts. Alot of sites dont mind when people give their invites away to people they trust. Most sites just dont want their addresses posting publicly. You will even find alot of sites now allow you to refer to them by certain code names. Ex: FTN. I have to agree with WV's post where she stated alot of other sites have been working together. I also have seen this first hand. Its been very good for the torrent communities in a whole when they work with other sites. We find vulnerabilities and help confront other issues. Its also nice to talk to staff from other sites once in a while to blow off steem.

No BT site that isn't totally closed looped (no invies, no way in) can even humor themselves about being safe from the RIAA/MPAA.
You can google the names and locations of undercover CIA agents. You think a Pro couldn't find your torrentsite and get an account? Lucky for you, they don't want you. If the 'powers that be' want you, they'd find you. They can't sue everyone, nor do they want to - or have to. There are plans in the works right now for combating BT starting with the internet connection you're using. Right now is the Wild West stage of the internet. The yonger people here will be telling their kids about the shit they were able to get away with, and they won't believe you.
You guys should loosen up and enjoy what's left of the ride. Let the invites be trade freely. To hell with all the secret clubs and the people on their high horses.

Umm, no?
For some 'odd' reason we at ST tend to think, strongly may I add,we have the right and obligation to do just things for our own sake and for the benefit of our loyal trusty good members - old or new. What's left of the ride is to be judged by us on our own tracker. When you are able to have your own server running BT tracker, then you can enforce free for all policy and there's nothing wrong with that as long as you're responsable for your doings.
What I try to really say is: we have strict rules that we expect our members to follow for their own sake and benefit as well as ours. We're not chopping heads or mutilate them in order to prove us right. It's our content/qos and behavior that prevails over free http services (regardless of protocol they might use).
