I know that I'm not one of the most active members here but i decided to post this anyways. Please only offer constructive criticism.
When it comes down to it, FSC is the only tracker that I'm more or less actively looking to get invited to. You may wonder why that is? What makes FSC so special to me that I would request to get invited to it. Well from many years on the bt torrent scene, I have been on some sites for close to 3 years now (148 weeks), and I have noticed that finding a site that provides you with a fast and good amount of quality data is easy, finding one that has a good and active community on the other hand is difficult. So far my favorite community, FTN, could be better. There's a bunch of great members there that post and staff is nice and helpful but the community just isn't very active. From what I hear from my friends FSC is the best tracker community, due to a bunch of innovations that the staff has implemented, for example, they have the clubs.
Having clubs seems like a great addition, just like in real life you make friends with people that have the same interests, this facilitates that process as you are all grouped in and can talk about it freely and openly. The two clubs that I would like to join there are the culinary and tv show club. Being born in France, I love eating good food, being part of this forum would allow me to share and learn new recipes to try. One of my favorite recipes is one that my dad makes, "crepes flambees" it basically translates to crepes on fire, or burnt crepes. What it is crepes that you put in a orange sauce with liquor and then you set on fire with a match. It is is like a little show that tastes great at the end, as some of alchohol gets burnt but there's still enough that you can taste it. As some of you know I watch a shitload of tv, while others may think it's a waste of time, I love watching tv shows, they are so entertaining. At FTN I frequently discuss shows, my reactions to the episode, as well as what I think is going to happen next. Right now in shows that are currently airing, I'm watching entourage, californication, dexter, the office, life, chuck, prison break, sons of anarchy, top gear, south park, and gossip girl(yes a secret pleasure, i find the girls to be all very attractive). That's quite a list of shows that I would be able to discuss with the other members.
Another innovation that I would love to try is kind of like facebook, where each member can edit his page. This brings the word community to the next level, as this is much more than just a profile page which tells you hows the person has upped, his userclass, and the how long hes been there. This tells you a lot more about that person and his interests, which can help you discover a lot more than you would have otherwise.
thanks for reading this long and elaborate post.
