Well I was thinking of some my accounts I have lost in the past due to inactivity or forgetting to check in within the allowed time frame and so I thought I would make a poll since it would be an interesting topic.

So how many sites have you lost due to inactivity?

1-3

Only one I remember right now is Torrentleech and I hate myself for it :frusty:

Perhaps a few others but none I remember so they must have been unimportant.

TB (Maybe it still works), DVDClub when it was brand new, BitHQ, TD when it was brand new, BCG when it was newer.

But I got BitHQ, DVDClub, TD, and BCG back now! :)

There's no option for none :P

I was just about to say that.

I only sign up for sites I use regularly. If I know I'm never going to use a tracker, I won't signup.

DOH!!! :frusty: :lol: Dam I new I forgot something, well I don't see an option to edit the poll.

So I guess you guys/gals can say none in your post or if one the mods can add the none option to the poll it would great.

Sites I didn't lose on purpose. TopHos (got it back), Goem, ST and probably two three more that I can't think of right now.

I'm guessing in the 10-15 range. After suprnova closed i joined a few private sites then moved and had dial-up and lost them then rejoined again. I think I've lost filelist at least 3 times.

If you're losing sites due to inactivity then you have too many trackers. Only exception would be a decent reason like losing interest in the scene, being in jail/overseas/whatever or such.

"Collectors" with 30-some accounts, most that they never touch, are nothing more than a joke to me.

Yeah, that thors account you spent so much time and effort trading into but never use? That makes you a shmuck. :)

Having said that, I've lost one, RTS, which I lost because it was a lost cause when I got there, and even the 190 gig buffer I built gave it no redeeming value. Never looked back on that one.

1 - SCT
I have only ever signed up to like 10 sites ... 7 of which i still use, and 2 have closed thier doors - FTM and another one around the same time as that (had less then 1k peeps)...

I lost SCT since i never used it since it was hard to seed back (and the new torrentbytes was decent for releases) ...
I have been offered an invite there on a few occations and have turned em down ... i really dont need it ... and if i ever wanted back in i know i could likely get an invite fairly easy

I've lost a few in my time. It's mainly been because I've switched over computers and since I didn't use them on a regular basis I forgot about them and didn't add them to my fav places section.

I don't think I've lost any. I have a bookmark folder in firefox for all my torrent trackers. I just click "open all in tabs" once a week. It's a good way for me to keep track of all my sites and make sure they're not getting underused :)

ConfigSys
10-05-2007, 02:35 PM
hmmm...1 site,and i hope it's will be my last lost :|\

none by mistake
quite a few on purpose, since staff wouldn't delete and there wasn't a manual delete script.

1-3.. Though only some open-signups trackers which I signed up at the beginning. When I dont use a not-open-for-sign-up tracker I usually give it away to someone who would keep good care of it. Plus I like to buffer all my accs so I keep them in good state :)
