Have ever been banned due to inactivity?

[znik]

Most of us are registered in various trackers.

I was wondering though what could happen if we ever couldn't login to our accounts for more than a month due to an accident or some other reason... :(

Would all these hard earned trackers be lost for inactivity?
Is there any way to reclaim them back?

Maybe we should have a thread with the IRCs of all trackers to ask for help in such a case. (if that is possible)

It would be interesting to know if you have ever lost access to a valuable tracker due to inactivity...
Thanks!

[Pelorus]

It happened to me on ST and SCC
but as they banned they returned to work after a period
:|

[Maxharl]

Yeah, SCC...

[Cmon]

I can't remember being banned because inactivity, but they just delete your account

[the-big-gamer]

happend to me in super torrents and fl

[Night0wl]

Only n tracker that I couldn't care less about, so maybe banned due to inactivity, but at the same time deliberately.

[znik]

Yes but I as I have said we could all have a car accident or another serious and unpredictable problem that could keep us out of our trackers for a month or more...

Is there a solution so as to reclaim our accounts?

[Cmon]

I don't think so, if they delete your account, then I doubt they still have the stats of your account, except maybe if you're a VIP/someone important there, maybe they will care more

[dudave]

yes
mma-tracker very long ago

[Night0wl]

Just make sure to become PU at all the sites, you usually get allowed longer periods of inactivity from. At e.g. OiNK a PU can never get deletd for inactivity, and at SCC the period allowed goes from 7 days to 42 days. It's probably similar for many other trackers although I haven't checked.

Also some sites allow you to park your account if you know it will be a while before you can use it again.

Some sites allow you to "park" your account meaning that you may be allowed to be inactive for more than 42 days (which I think is the usual length of time that a tracker will let you be inactive for before they delete your account):).

I was disabled (note that sites usually don't disable your account for being inactive, just delete it which allows you to sign up again) from BitMe for inactivity but it was re-enabled by a moderator when I explained my situation in IRC:).

Apart from that I have been deleted from my fair share of trackers for inactivity. Usually because I lose interest in the site but I sometimes sign up again later. I just went through my list of trackers and these are the ones I can remember being deleted from: FileMP3, Bitsoup, iLoveTorrents, MusicVids, Aradi Tracker, MySpleen, Wild-Bytes, Revolt, Audionews, Libble, Goem, HDBits, Midnight Torrents, SceneMachine, SCC, PiSEXY, Acid Lounge, x264, BitNation, SportBit, Swebits, UKNova:).

[Shalafi]

scc for 5 times maybe :D

[Eazil]

In scc of course :D

[mestari]

SCC deleted my account too. They've got too short limit for that.

[desiKing]

ipaly delete accounts if inactive for more than 14 days SCC delete accounts if inactive for more than 7 days
other trackers give you atleast 42days...

[kirktrix]

yeah.. on WB...first time that my account was disabled due to inactivity...

[Something Else]

You can park your acct on most trackers...

[RainRoofer]

Yes,
at SweBits, ST and SCC.

[thegman24]

Yes, my account on a couple of trackers, but there are so many out there. If you really care about them...you'll keep your contact info WRITTEN DOWN!!

[Tokeman]

[dcliffnotes]

account havent been deleted yet on any trackers. i was wondering.....what does it mean by inactivity? does it mean you havent logged-in for a while or does it mean no download or upload activity?

[znik]

dcliffnotes I think that most trackers disable your account if you do not login for 42 days.
However if it is a new account and you have never used it for downloading, it may be deactivated sooner.

[Chrys]

never :D

[ven0m]

SCC.. twice.. LOL

[dcliffnotes]

thanks for that info, znik.

[RainRoofer]

SCC FTW :) they should remove that stupid rule

[nickw1988]

yep scc and iplay

[quakie]

SCC here too.

[pECi]

i think it's fair to the other users that may want an account there to delete your account if u have 0 kb download 0 kb upload

[akkk]

I haven't been banned due inactivity, because I've made a folder with bookmarks of all my torrent sites and open it every sunday for this reason :)

[barral01]

[midoladido]

is the inactivity means no seed-leech or no logging in ?

[titofat]

yeah.. on WB...first time that my account was disabled due to inactivity...

ME TOO MY ACCOUNT IN WB DISABLED

[ChotaZorro]

is the inactivity means no seed-leech or no logging in ?That's exactly what I was wondering.

[kabir]

i think it means logging in for most sites.
pisexy being an exception.

[nvidia6800]

on scc

[Wozz]

WB, the 1st and only account that i have had disabled...

[redMonster]

On about 2 or 3 trackers, mainly SCC, BitSpyder.

[Fibo]

WB, the 1st and only account that i have had disabled...

Same here, But they were pretty cool about bringing it back

[kgbXt]

i lost a SweBits account before due inactivity. I was a power user with 250GB uploaded :(

[silhouette]

I not only got deleted from pisexy a few weeks ago, their home page also does not load. When I contacted them in IRC they said I had not upped or downloaded and this rule applies to new accounts.
But a user here mentioned that they had some problem with with getting hacked by people from spain and so all users from spain (and I think sweden) got their IPs blacklisted. I'm glad this did not happen with a more valuable tracker, like oink, for example.

[viper1029]

ya SCC bans fast.

[bblogs]

yeah...I know people who have been at oink for 5 years + and they get banned just because their computer crashes :(

[kakashi]

yea, because you can't park account in some places...and even if you can, they stilll ban you after 60days....

[STAGUY]

Yeah many times i guess my account got deleted for inactivity, i guess we all register but we don't use our accounts we just collect them

[Army]

this happen all the time
