View Full Version : Good experience with OiNK Staff

I heard that some of FST-ers had some problems with OiNK Staff. Well my friend has come across a problem and had some very good experience with one of 'em. He uploaded a transcode by accident. He got a warning and his privilege was revoked. Don't get me wrong: he deserved it: it is in their FAQ not to upload a transcode or check before uploading. But it was long time ago. When he turned to the Staff in a respectful manner to get his privilege back he was handled in a professional and very friendly way. He was asked some questions (he was to get back his privilege if answered correctly) about transcodes (why is it bad, how to avoid it next time etc.). He (being a thorough man) looked up all the stuff about transcoding and lossless music. It was useful, it was educational. And it was amzingly fair. Not like for e.g. BitMeTV
Bravo, OinK!

So, playing by rules is called "good" today, not "normal"?

Do not provoke. I put it down because I read many threads where OinK stuff was talked low. U can still argue with Yourself, if U have some valid points. I do not care - u seem like a flamer.

It's quite simple. Respect the staff and they respect you. Lots of people have no trouble at all fixing issues with staff there. Maybe because they don't call them assholes or rant, flame and however else you wouldn't want people treating you ;)
And most importantly at least try to follow the rules

I think OiNK is one of the best site's out there to be a member of, and the staff is typically fair if you're not stupid...

I think the staff there is very fair and when warnings are given out it's for a good reason. I currently am under a warning for an excessive quoting scandal but I knew that could be warned when I did it and I was.

its up to a guy what kind of relation if want with the staff, after all oink staff is also consist of humans .if you keep your cool and follow the rules you will never have any bad experience .I think if the staff know you and they know you respect them then definitely they will also respect you.In this world you get what you give others .ya sometimes they make mistake but we all know "to err is human"

I've never had any problems with OiNK staff. I upload my own rips, post in the forums, and hang out on their IRC channel regularly. They run a great site, and as such have to be strict on what gets uploaded (especially since everyone has upload privs.).
Those complaining about being disabled for nothing, have you tried getting into contact with a staff member? Chances are, you were disabled for a reason, whether it be cheating, uploading transcodes or files against their rules, or whatever.

something tells me that the people who were disabled "for no reason" wouldn't have been disabled if they had read the rules. that goes for most of them but sometimes you get a cheater in your invite tree and you get burned with everyone else on it. thats why i always prefer getting invited to strict sites by admins only, makes life much easier not having to worry.

yeah OiNK staff can be very cooperative and nice at times. they can be very unforgiving too.
they are nice when your account gets stolen, and they will let you explain yourself if it is disabled.

BMTV is usually the site that gets ripped on for bad staff and being banned for no reason. With Oink if you don't have an inactivity problem, don't trade accounts, becareful what you upload, and don't cheat your usually fine (so basically follow the rules) you really don't have a problem.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm more than happy and willing to help users who ask for it, and are willing to help themselves. I've demoted a lot of users for uploading transcodes, and I can count on one hand the number I've refused to re-promote when their warning ends. Every time I see someone complaining about what jerks the OiNK staff are, it's after they've done something wrong and been called on it. For some reason, we're wrong for enforcing our rules. Or, things like this:
what nice ppl???? they disable my account with no reason !! :(

He was told exactly what happened to his account - it was deleted for inactivity (not disabled). The rules for keeping an account active are clearly stated in the FAQ, yet again, it's the staff who are a**holes, somehow.
Don't believe everything you see on this forum. We don't have the time or desire to point out every lie told here (*coughnickmash232cough*), but just like with Niv-S, there are multiple sides to a story.

I told Niv-S what the FAQ said on inactivity when he said he was gone for 6 weeks as well as a few others tried helping him and talking to him saying he needed to get another invite and start over. He just didn't want to listen to what anyone was telling him.
Hey the_e_male thanks for participating in the conversation we all appreciate it.
i havent had a problem with oink staff
i had an upload removed and labeled as a dupe & bad info provided or w/e
i argued it and got back an explanation and some extra help
but by no means a rude or bad experience

If I were Oink staff, I wouldn't re-invite Niv-S...he sounds like a rude, ignorant user. The rules are pretty clear...and Oink's rules on inactivity are way simpler than something like BitmeTV's...all you have to do is login once every 6 weeks.

Tell this to people who got disabled for "cheating" by your buggy script.

I've had dealings with about 5 oink staffers, even oink himself, and never had a problem. just be fucking courteous and honest, and they'll treat you fair 99% of the time.

I was talking about the rules and the scripts! Did I say I like the staff? The scripts can not accuse some1.
OiNK staff DO NOT listen to any1 :) They do not have time to accuse you, they ban you at once...
What I am trying to say here that I like thier rules and thier tracker and everything in that place except the staff BUT I never had to talk to the staff! and I do not intend even to post a single post in thier forums...
...and the best of all they are good in detecting cheaters!
This was the comment I was jabbing.
I've been banned at oink twice by their terrible script for "cheating". I use the same uTorrent as everyone else and have never had any issues or even accusations at any other trackers. There are plenty of tracker staff members around here who could back that up.
Fact is, they aren't good at detecting cheaters. They're great at fucking up though. :dry:

Collateral damage occurs when it comes to any site. Look at BMTV they'll knock out whole trees to try to rid the site of 1 cheater, account trader or whatever else.
spark
10-01-2007, 10:47 AM
You can not compare BMTV with OiNK, OiNK has a very fair, clear and accurate rules..
They only common thing is that the staff of both trackers do not listen to anyone at all..
briand5379
10-01-2007, 11:23 AM
It was more about the point of collateral damage occurs on any site and that BMTV takes it too an extreme then trying to compare oink and them.

Been on OINK for ages without a single hiccup. Invited some real tossers without getting my wrist slapped. I use uTorrent without having suffered a 'cheat' ban. Seems to be more 'fors' than 'againsts' in this thread. If you're kicked for cheating by scripts then why isn't everybody? Same scripts, same clients ??? Where there's smoke..........

Their script isn't flawless, I'd say.

I invited a known trader by accident in a giveaway and he even used a email address that they had already banned, Anyway I received a warning and lost the invite in question but not all my invites so I was pleased with how they dealt with me.

i simply hate oink i wish oink server get crashed and they cant get up!! and its for you e-male dont think i am a flammer or anything thats just the revenge i am taking for my experience in oink even skizo faced problems !!

i've been on all serious music tracker. also the one you mentioned. they can't compete with oink (at least for my kind of musical taste).
if you like music - oink is essential. everybody will agree with me. i'm really glad that i'm a member there. even though i lost my invites because i was too kind and invited one of those cheaters nickmash232 seems to know very well.
btw: my biggest dissapointment was definitely vipmusic. not only because of content, but the admins there are not very friendly towards mac users.
oink respects mac users. another reason why i like the site.

Usenet isn't a tracker.
And no, your precious oink cannot compare. :smilie4:
EDIT: Well, I take that back. Oink's selection is nice (though still less that Usenet). Shame that you guys put up with so much just to have access tho'. :ermm:
