I like it, it was requested on 7dec and bam the fake page is on!
This is the reason i like GFT, they listen to the community.

I like it as well. The less flashy the login page, the better IMO.

Keep the feds away I imagine, and thanks for the heads up, since I'm usually logged in I hadn't noticed it yet.

These fake login pages give a false sense of security. Anyone who stumbles on it may be fooled, but anyone who hears about a torrent tracker won't be. Retarded.

yeah it sucks kind of, but I'm wondering if anyone noticed it :shifty:?

Doesn't publicizing it somewhat defeat the purpose?

If I'm making too much sense let me know.

Well no I didn't mean to do that, I just thought people knew about it and was wondering how 'fake' FST people think it is.

You kidding me? This is great, simplistic and minimalistic.

I really don't like BCG and the mexican on it.

OK I see the problem I'm not a fake FST person.





And no I don't have anything better to do with my time.

i remember the first site to do it fake log in screen very small site but many staffers belong to it and have followed suit,
sort of the same as not using torrent in the site name :-/

Keep the feds away I imagine
fake mainpage → less publicity → less relevance → less ,fedsī

It's the "under the radar" theory.

@IdolEyes787
Basically correct. But as mentioned already, everyone that does research knows too much to be fooled in the long-run. And only people who look for information / are familiar with such strategies see this thread. We can talk openly here, it won't have a big effect, at least that's what I think at the moment. Those who don't know they can read up on the topic or lack approach, who have no time, no motivation, etc. all have no clue. This is the majority and we can try to tell them as much as we want, it will not reach them. Why poison the community by distrusting your neighbor when the word anyway dries out. False paranoia is bad and destroys filesharing from within.
