yeah, sorry - think its very very unlikely that they will hook you up again.

especially at HDbits where they are very determined on having people actually using the site, instead of just having unused logins. Thats also why it counts download and ratio, instead of just upload ammount. Anyways, good luck getting back on, once the invites are reinstated.

Its a shame theyve closed invites but what can you expect when you put that kind of thing in the hands of shitheads. (invites)
And there will always be dickheads out there..

Meanwhile good BT users that behave themselves doesn't get in. Thats just life.

I signed for them last year, and was pretty active. Had my exams for a few months, so didn't bother going there, and recently, when I tried to log in, it seemed my account had been deleted. I asked my friend for an invite. He has a couple of them, but tells me that HDBits have disabled invites now.

I don't get it? What happened? Is it impossible to become a member now? Why have invites been disabled.

I think it would be a very honest thing to tell your future inviter you lost a previous account. He´ll see if he takes the risk.
It would be very annoying that somebody invites you and then he results warned or punished by doing something forbidden, as inviting an ex-member is.
By the way, don´t take this personal, but I can´t find any single reason for not logging into the site every 15 days or so, put a note in your profile or notify staff, even more when is clearly stated that they don´t tolerate inactive accounts.

I've already told my invited what happened. He advised to me to log onto their channel, and ask for help. However, their channel seems to be invite only.

Btw, I did quiet a bit of torrenting on it. Downloaded about 50GB+ and had a ratio of around 1.5. I couldn't log on the site, because I was complete cut off from the internet.

I know a few members that in situations like yours they have been re-enabled. It´s not an easy thing, staff is very strict but a good user if asks something in the appropriate way can get almost anything, as long as it is a reasonable request.

I´d tell you to ask your inviter -if he is a good user with immaculate record- to go to IRC and vouch for you, explaining the situation in a very polite way.

Anyway, I wish good luck.
