At the risk of over simplifying things, it all comes down to respect. The people that own/run these trackers are putting their asses on the line in one way or another just running the site...the server bill(s) has to have someones name on it after all.
So, considering the staff/owners are taking that risk so I can have a place to d/l the latest stuff at high speed in a 'safer' private environment, if they say do not trade invites to their tracker, thats IT! No ifs, ands or buts about it! THEY are the ones taking the risk, therefor their invite rules (and all others) should be respected without question. I speak a bit from experience...I once leased a server in my name to help with a tracker I staffed and that 'what if?' question does sit in the back of your mind and when you see people doin stupid shit re:invites I can/does strike a nerve.
Forgive my ignorance, but people trade bittorrent sites like baseball cards? That's wild. I'm not really sure what to think about it, but the overwhelming majority in this thread seems to think it is a bad thing, so I'll trust that. I don't really see why someone would bother though.
