To be honest some of your real life friends could be the worst people to invite to private trackers. I had bad experience inviting friends as well. Make sure they really know what it means to seed, keeping their computer on, ratio's, uploading, reading tracker rules and faq. If not, then don't invite them.

We'll at least he didn't sleep with your girlfriend lol. It sucks he's a torrenting cheat, but if he's a good friend you should just forgive him. I just wouldn't invite him to any trackers that you really like until he gains your trust. There's more to life then torrenting ya know.

I haven't seen him. I got a PM from an x264 mod about 45 minutes ago. But yeah, he's definitely not getting any more invites.

If you have not talk to him yet; better try to tune down a bit. There may be some 'good' reasons why you received that PM. You may still have a friend who call you a friend.

There will always be such kind of idiots. I think everyone has that kind of expirience.

I would talk to him to make sure he didn't cheat first, but if he did, don't invite him to any other sites.

d/w torrenting is merely one tiny part of your friendship with the guy, get over it and be friends again

pretty simple... if he did cheat and since you know him in real life, go beat his ass.

My friends are too dumb to cheat, so i am safe. One of them tried to format their hdd, and ended up taking the mobo out of the case, and disconnecting everything.

I once invited someone on TL and he cheated. Good thing they didn't ban me as well, but only disabled my invites. Now I have an excuse :)

Just explain to him how it all works, if he doesn't understand then. Then he shouldn't be using bittorrent or filesharing.

Fear of inviting a cheat is the #1 thing that keeps me from giving an invite to someone whom I think deserves a break (after researching them even). If it weren't for the fear of getting banned (and embarrassed) by inviting a cheat I'd definitely be more generous.

Cheats fck it up for everyone in the long run.:dry:

........And after talking to him, you confirmed that he actually cheat; you will need to see him in a different light. The next one he play on you may be your girlfriend:O

If the allegations are true then he's proven he can't be trusted. If you can't trust a friend then he really isn't a friend then anymore. That's just my thoughts.

If I were you I would ask him straight out why he did it....don't ask if he did it as you are then offering him a choice to admit it or not.

Did you invite him to any other sites. If so it would be best for you to let the staff know what's happened just in cases he cheats there too.

I hear you. I shared my Blackcats account with a real life friend and he ended up cheating and getting me banned. I know I shouldn't be sharing accounts but invites were closed around then and he wanted to download alot of games. Lesson learned.

Plain and simple go round to his house ask no questions and just kick his ass. You trusted him and he did that to you.

Smack him in the back of the head, and then move on.

So he cheated on some internet site. Big deal. In the grand scheme of things its really not important. Just dont invite him to anymore sites and move on.

Who cares it is only a website. With my friends in rl I never even discuss internet issues. Get over it....

I let a friend of mine use my TL account, he downloaded about 100gb and never seeded back. I didn't really care, just laughed about it and went to go see a movie.

Invite him round for a beer, kick him in the balls, tell him not to do that again, and show him how it should be done, preferably before you invite him back :P

I dunno. I can think of lots of things. Downloading movies definitely isnt one of them though.

Well if by cheating you mean ratio cheating then no its not. Neither is what you think of me. :)

Cheating period is bad, but if he is a friend i won't end are friendship, i would just not invite him again, which happened to me. I invited a friend and he either cheated or had ratio trouble can't remember, it was years ago. Told him i won't be inviting you again but we still cool.
