Help this new kid out looking at my interests, which private trackers should I go for

[slammers]

Hey guys!

this is my 2nd topic on this forum. I already posted a topic where I asked information about swebits and how to get a specific movie. With the help of a few fellow-members here I am now a member at swebits and someone uploaded the movie for me on another tracker. Now I am relatively new to torrenting so I would like to know where I should be looking at. I have checked and read about most trackers but am lost. I will quickly list my interests and maybe you can help me out and give some advice! :)

My interests:

Movies:
I watch a lot of movies, I like to collect them aswell. Therefore I am found of DVDRs with the correct subtitle if possible (Dutch). Now I can also get subtitles elsewhere if the movie is not subbed in Dutch yet. I also watch XviDs if I don't know if the movie is any good. If it is good I download it on DVD and burn it and put it in my collection.

Music:
I especially listen to house, techhouse, trance, etc. But I also often listen to other kinds of pop music like 'the killers' which are 'in' here nowadays. I have read that waffles and what.cd are music trackers but that seeding is really hard so I do not know where to go...

TV Series:
I do not often watch TV series. I am just not into it. I don't watch lost, prison break, etc. Though I watch the standard series like South Park, Family Guy, etc. Because I am not found of TV series really I am looking for a tracker which just has the common ones.

Games:
Just like TV series, I need a tracker which has the new games when they are released.

About the tracker:
For each case I am looking for a tracker which offers nice speeds, a relative good 'pretime' and has a sufficient amount of leechers to maintain a positive ratio. But for my main interests, movies (DVDR specifically) and music 'trance/house/etc., as much as possible should be on there. Furthermore I would like to get actively involved in some trackers. That means that I want to be active in the forums and especially IRC to get to know the people. I have heard that trading is a bad way to get yourself into sites, and just be nice to people and get to know people better gets you further than trading. I can download with 1.2Megabytes per second and upload with about the same amount. I am looking for trackers which are fast even with low number of seeders

My Problem:

There are so many trackers that I just do not know what to look for or which ones I should get. Also I am aware of the fact that some trackers are harder to get into then others, which is kind of a shame but in my opinion also the best.

Trackers I had in mind:
From what I have read so far and according to my interests I have come to some trackers which I think are wise decisions. But please, wipe them out if you think they are not what I am looking for, but also add other trackers which might be more to my interest.

Sceneaccess - good pretimes, nice overall content.
Torrentleech - standard TV shows games etc., lots of leechers.
Scenelife - active mIRC and nice people.
Scenetorrents - kind of related to TL? But people advise me this.
TranceTraffic - heard its pain in the ass but is specific to the music I especially like
TheDVDclub - focuses on my special interest (movies), willing to become active member there but are they (staff + members) active at forums and mIRC?

For the rest I do not know. I have good advise of some people who are into torrenting, but their advise also differs from person to person. Please help me out and state your opinion ;)

I think u need to start with TL.
Send me some speedtests and maybe I'll able to help you.

Hi Veidenbaum!

because I am new here I cannot send personal messages. I will post some links of my speedtest below, I am uploading at this moment so my upload is drastically lower.

I think TTi would be good for you, they have a very good movie section, with packs and the subs your looking, with a nice movie of the week feature. Its very easy to keep ratio there because of all the free leech and bonus system, decent speeds from the nordic users and over all its a very good tracker.

Thanks for your advice and comment m8. I thought about TTi aswell. For DVDR movies it would be really suitable. I will try and ask some friends how it is like and if its really good and maybe they can invite me or so. But because I am a movies fan I thought theDVDclub was a better option to go for if I wanted to be active on IRC etc. because it is a lot smaller than TTi, right?

thanks!

True.
TTi is great for DVD's. Especially for nordic users. And if I can get nice ratio with my 60kb/s up then everyone can.

To OP. Your speedtests looks ok.
But if you can't send me e-mail I can't invite you :(

[Time-Traveller]

I'd recommend TorrentLeech & STMusic and once you get the hang of seeding / uploading files you should upgrade and try to become a member of what.cd

as previously mentioned TTi is a great site if you like DVD-R's


**Edit**

The DVD Club is a decent tracker but it's not got many leechers and hard to seed anything other than movie of the week so I'd skip that one till you get more experience

Hi Veidenbaum!

thanks for your comment again. I can't send you a private message, true. But when I click your profile it says send an e-mail to... should I do that? I am delighted that you are willing to invite me but with inviting someone come risks as I have read a noticed here. I will behave or how to say, at least, will not get you into any troubles. If I shouldn't e-mail you, then what can I possibly do?

Hi Time-Traveller,

so far I have TL, TTi, and STMusic as best options. Do they all fit my interests or should I look for others aswell? I really would like to be active on a certain DVD tracker and discuss movies, what is my best bet? :happy:

thank you for your comment.

I did my talk about traders and cheaters, why would I. I just want to fulfill my interests, and via a honest way! Thanks for your concern and kindness!!!

E-mail on its way. and yes I am interested in STMusic, if they offer trance/house/techhouse etc. :happy:

[Veidenbaums]

TL sent...
I'll send u STMusic's code to your TL profile.

SD-Bits, PTN & Teh Connection are all really top notch for movies but remember any specialist tracker will generally be harder to seed on and you might find it difficult to get an invite for the first two I mentioned, Teh Connection probably a better target for you to aim for, the site has recently been relaunched with what.cd's Gazelle codebase and it's looking super smart these days

I heard about PTN and Teh Connection yes. But isn't it the case that PTN is so 'special' that there are so less leechers that it is almost impossible to seed? I have never heard of SD-Bits. I will look into that one a bit. Thanks!

It can be hard to seed files you've snatched but the site is ratio free so as long as you seed back to either a ratio of 1:1 or 72 hours seeding time per torrent then everything is cool, although obviously the longer you leave them on your pc seeding the better this earns you bonus points which is converted into gold for you to spend on the site :)

Another way to build your upload credit is to upload your own files to share with everyone else, you'll need plenty upload credit if your going to gamble it at Blackjack, it's a great little community site.


*Edit* SD-Bits is mainly a mix of movies, tv, sport & documentary's

[puckface]

the first 4 on your list are pretty much redundant. All are 0 day with some packs. Same packs most times show up everywhere anyway.

TT is actually pretty easy to get (relatively), but try for What or Waffles they should satisfy your tastes. So is The DVD Club

SCC, TT, and TDC should do you well, and for games BCG is the one.

[Rikikii]

I can help you with Scenelife, if you still need it.

[Veidenbaums]

slammers, I sent stmusic code to your e-mail...
enjoy and don't forget to seed.

[slammers]

Thank you so much m8!

I signed up. I will not forget to seed, and I will not cheat, nor trade. I will be honest and keep the account to myself and be active :happy: THANK YOU! :w00t:

Thats some useful information.

at this moment I feel most like getting into TheDVDClub. BCG is not really what I need because I only download games when I feel like it, and that's not often. Or some big title needs to be released.

But if I get waffles or what.cd, isn't there the problem that I can't maintain ratio because there are no leechers? :O

Thanks for your reply!


I can help you with Scenelife, if you still need it.

If scenelife is really an active community I would like to be a part of it. If not, then you are probably wasting an invite because I am into ScL because I heard from some guys that it is really friendly and has a nice atmosphere. If this is not true, then spare yourself the invite. If it is true, I would be delighted to get an invite! :happy: Your choice, your call. ;)

[Rikikii]

ScL has pretty active forums, but they don't have many leechers, so it's a bit hard to keep a good ratio there. I don't know anything about their irc, because I never have been there.

So, how can I contact you?

[Lovestoned]

If you want an ScL invite then just contact me, I would like to know why you want to get in and how you will use it.

Speeds doesn't really matter as long as you've got the willingness to seed.

I have got ScL already now!

thank you though!

[no_bother]

EDIT:
Saw that you already got a ScL invite, sorry for the waste of a post.

[Rigel9]

Getting/keeping a good ratio on What/Waffles is pretty easy, just upload everything forever and be patient (or start uploading good rips yourself). I'm seeding about 750 torrents for what right now and get about 1-2GB upload per day.

Plus the odd freeleech will get you elite in no time.

[Ichigo81]

I would pass on thedvdclub and try to get BitHQ. BitHQ is a DVD-R only site and the selection is great. It's much easier to seed and maintain a good ratio there as opposed to thedvdclub.

[FlipRising21]

I really would recommend revtt if you get the chance to grab an invite. Hopefully you get what your looking for =)

[Sanka113]

Hmm, while probably not the OP's intentions, this thread ended up becoming a request thread more than a discussion. Since the OP made an earnest effort in finding out what trackers he needs, people have rewarded him with a few trackers. That's a really good thing to see on FST as if the OP would have made a request asking for all those trackers it probably would have been spammed to hell. Now, since the community has been helping the OP out by giving him a few trackers he probably doesn't need many more ATM. Don't want to overemcumber him with too many trackers. Anyways, as far as movie content goes Tehconnection, goem, and passthepopcorn are all good movie trackers. Goem was the king but tehconnection is becoming a fast riser and passthepopcorn has gazelle and nearly as many torrents as goem. All three sites are relatively easy to get into. So once you've buffered up your current accounts I'd look to add one of those three.

[7th]

Agreed... I don't know much about movies and musics as I'm not too much into it but I'm sure TL is a really nice start, at least for new games/movies (and apps).

Don't know if he'll need much more after those gifts =D

Good luck and welcome to "torrenting".

Thanks for your comment, Rigel9!

Well for now I will keep my chances with either TranceRoute or TranceTraffic or so. The music I want aside from trance/house etc. I could indeed get via waffles and what.cd. But now my concern is that my harddisk isn't that big to seed 750 torrents, not even for 24 hours a day. So I will skip this option though if you're possible of leaving your PC on 24/7 and have a big HDD, then this is indeed a brilliant tip!

I also want to thank you for the comment Ichigo81 and this is something I am going to consider for sure. I checked the review of BitHQ and it has about 2000+ torrents, all DVDRs. I do not want to get into too many trackers because I can't use them all and maintain a good ratio, so I am doubting between TDC and bithq now! But we will see, I still have time enough ;)

Thank you for your tip!

Thanks FlipRising21!

I already obtained RevTT the other day from a friend. People tell me that it is almost the same as TL, so I should not get TL then, right? Or do you say TL is better and drop RevTT (which of course would be a shame...)

Sanka113,

you summarised my thoughts aswell. I was just here to ask some advice and I know there is a requests and giveaway section so probably people thought that this was pretty nice organized and I really showed interests, maybe that's what made them make the decision to invite me to a certain tracker. When I read the requests in the requests and giveaway forums, sorry but they are 'crap'.

But do understand. By making this thread I had never the intention of making it look like a camouflaged request thread. I just wanted your opinion to help me out. Having 20 trackers doesn't get me any further. Of course I am the one who decides in the end which tracker to go with and which one not, but all help is welcome!

Hey 7th,

thank you for your comment! I have RevolutionTT at the moment, and I already stated above / questioned whether RevTT or TL were the same kinda? And if not which one is the better one according to the person answering that question :P.

I am very glad that I received these 'unasked' gifts. I see this is a nice site, that is if you treat others nice you are treaten nice by others. Kinda seems like the Golden rule of Christianity :P

THANK YOU SO FAR GUYS!

Oke thanks for your share! About christianity, no not really. I am Christian though. I had that in my philosophy course at school. Thanks for an offer once again! :yup:

[Twolf13]

I think TTi would be good for you, they have a very good movie section, with packs and the subs your looking, with a nice movie of the week feature. Its very easy to keep ratio there because of all the free leech and bonus system, decent speeds from the nordic users and over all its a very good tracker.

Check here: http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/p-bit...5/postcount241 (http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/../p-bittorrent-tracker-reviews-post2808455/postcount241)
True.
TTi is great for DVD's. Especially for nordic users. And if I can get nice ratio with my 60kb/s up then everyone can.

To OP. Your speedtests looks ok.
But if you can't send me e-mail I can't invite you :(

Hi Veid,
just wondering if TTi of TL ever has open registration? I am in the same boat as Slammers, just starting out, and mostly interested in dvds..thanks..t

[Skiz]

No, they do not. They are what is referred to as "private trackers". New accounts are obtained by invite only.

[Twolf13]

I am kind of in the same boat as Slammers. I have seeded some football games on a tracker for the last 4 years so not new to torrenting so much, but like slammers, new to looking for dvd/etc trackers(football is all i know..haha), so looking to find a good tracker or three that has a good selection of dvds mostly. I did try one tracker, but everything was avi or xvid, which is ok if that is all there is, and the selection was not too good. I prefer dvd quality, full dvd when possible. But from searching the net and reading around here, that TTi, TL, BitHQ(especially this one, as I have read several places about them), cinematik, u**t, dvdclub, sct, and the other sceneetc's look promising oh and cartoon chaos for the daughter. I checked out each but they all require invites. Do any of them ever have open seasons, periodically that I can look out for? I have read a lot about invites and believe it is taboo to buy or trade etc for invites, so I guess if I need an invite what is the best way of knowing if a friend or other might be a member of one of these? I know some places have short windows sporadically where you can register without an invite. What is the best, and correct method to get an invite if possible for the ones that don't have open season? Thanks for any advice or recommendations..t

First starters, look here (http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-bittorrent-43/t-what-trackers-offer-content-speed-pre-time-etc-235742). You'll find most of your questions are answered there. From there, you can determine what trackers will hold any interest to you.

You'll notice that not only is there a spreadsheet with all the basic info, but there are more detailed posts listed below, as well as links to reviews of most of the trackers which show screenshots of the content within.

As for how you should go about obtaining the invites is anyones guess, and I'd wager everyone will insert their 2 cents worth. My recommendation would be to learn from reading threads which interest you, help others when you can, and above all else, be a mature member of the board. I can't stress that last part enough. Invites are given to those which demonstrate the ability to be responsible. If you act like an ass on the forum, it is not unlikely you will do the same on a tracker. No one wants to be responsible for inviting an ass. (not saying you're an ass, just making an example) :)

Or you could just go for usenet and entirely avoid this part of the bored.

Or you could just go for usenet and entirely avoid this part of the bored.

I am at usenet already and use torrents for stuff I can't find on usenet. Especially TT for music for example....

[Albo Da Kid]

^lol i knew soon enough he would turn this into a req thread...
Stuff that is on TT is hard to be found anywhere else. But you can make up for TT by having Elektr0nik and TranceRoute.
If i was you, i'd get to looking for those immediately.

[basilhaydens]

Or you could just go for usenet and entirely avoid this part of the bored.

This is a great suggestion. But it is a tad odd coming from a torrent site admin.

[Rikikii]

Twolf13, how can I contact you? Maybe I can help you with TTi invite.

That's not my intention!

:mellow:

[Twolf13]

Twolf13, how can I contact you? Maybe I can help you with TTi invite.
Rikki, I would assume you can pm me here? i am new so not wure pm works, any other suggestions? thanks so much.

My intent was not to hijack Slammers thread but trying to respect what is normally proper forum etiquette and not have duplicate threads about the same thing, but as it was thought that I should start a new thread, then I will. My apologies Slammers if it appeared that way. Most forums don't like multiple threads of the same things, so I will post here.



For the others, thanks so much for the advice and suggestions I will check out that link and read more here.

Usenet, I have never used and don't even know what it is. Can anyone point me to information on this? Is it filesharing, and do they do dvd size stuff? I have always heard of Usenet but never ventured that way thinking it was another way of chat and that type of thing...guess I was wrong.

My intention was not to request invites, tho I appreciate it Rikki, but most forums hate when duplicate threads, or multiple threads about same things are started, so with respect to that, I thought I would post my requests for help and advice in an already established thread about helping someone new to it, and that is basically what I am, the same, new to it. So thanks to Slammers and my original intent was not to request invites, just how one goes about finding folks that will give them if you don't know anyone at all that uses these places.

I am currently dling a couple of Scooby flicks for my daughter, but disappointed that they are divx...i like the full dvd and good quality and to burn it to dvd. Divx and xvid, I have to convert dvd files and even minor may have a little loss of quality....thus my pref for dvd files. And Slammers seemed to prefer dvds also, thus I posted in here.

As far as an ass, I don't think I will be one..I am a member at a fan forum amd AVSforum(the only 2 forums i post regularly in) and am not one there...So that won't be a problem.

Thanks to all who replied and gave great advice...tim

Gosh, this is a mess... If slammers is done with his doubts, maybe it's time to close this topic =/

[Twolf13]

one other question....if anyone is member of SCT...is there a page where you can check periodically to see if they have an open period? then only pages I find is the login page, and most sites have something like a registration page or page that says registration is closed, so that I can go to that page periodically to see if reg is open that day..not sure where to check periodically at SCT..thanks..t

[Villalltheway]

For the others, thanks so much for the advice and suggestions.


Here is another peace of advice never give you email out in public. :noes:

stop hijacking my thread will you. Please create your own....

Again, my apologies Slammers..my intent was not to hijack your thread. Usually in most forums it is proper etiquetted not to post multiple threads when they are about the same thing or very closely related. That is why I posted in this thread as I am basically in the same boat as you..new to all this.

If the folks here don;t have a problem with another thread asking some of the same stuff, I will start a new thread. Most of what you asked I would have asked in a separate thread plus the other things I added..so just did not want to repeat what you had already asked. So my apologies Slam...t

[slammers]

no problem. :)

CLOSE THIS THREAD PLEASE!

[Rikikii]

Twolf13, I just made new e-mail for myself. [email protected]. Feel free to write me a mail about TTi.

Hey Slammers. I have an alternate email If you want to email me at that with an alternate/old email address you don't use, I can tell you how to go about getting onto a dvd-movie only site...hopefully to help make up for the misunderstanding earlier...t

[subD]

another thread where people fight back and forth... have fun :)

[slammers]

I WAS NEW!

asking about content and other questions about a tracker isn't that difficult now is it? You join one tracker and go to their IRC and start discussing or asking questions to different members on that IRC. Now I did that and I reached my conclusions out of this. They helped me further by giving invites or accounts which they didn't use.

NO, I am not trading their invites! They said I should do whatever I liked with the accounts. And seeing I am looking for ScT still I want to obtain ScT instead of keeping those accounts which I do not use now!

Thanks!

[Redrum420]

Good luck finding ScT:whistling
I hope you go to hell for trading a ptn invite :)

That's why new members here must wait 30 days before enable to access the invite section... but suddenly this innocent threat turned into a req threat and then OP gets all invites he wanted.

I can't blame him, he fulfilled his role very well, too bad to those who fell in his trap.

Now he's making fun of us with all reason :dabs: ... we collect what we planted

since the op has suddendly turned from a nice n00b asking for advice into an account dealer, there isn't much left to say on topic.

if no invites had been given in this section like the rules say, he couldn't have misused the trust of honest users like he did.

it's a little late to moderate this thread now.

The other day I saw a n00b here asking about a few trackers, and I was actually going to invite him to a bunch of trackers to help him out. I stopped myself at the last moment. This sort of lying scumbags is exactly the reason why I felt I had to take a step back and reconsider. It's people like this that ruin it for everyone else.

Perhaps this thread has exceeded its initial goal, and now has a more important one, which is to discuss how the environment at FST allows guys like the OP get to any tracker they want so easily. Don't you think that if a guy can make up some lies and get into so many trackers so easily then *something* is wrong in the system here?

It also occurred to me that you keep talking about how committed you are to defending FST members. Well, here's your chance to practice what you're preaching, defend your members from obvious scammers like the OP.

[Villalltheway]

Which idiot gave this noobs all his invites, must say impressed by the amount of trackers he got in such a quick time. Some people really should take care in who they invite, for such a noob he got some impressive sites.

[andy316]

read from the beginning till the end,and it really is a fairytale journey for this guy....so many awesome trackers quickly,u guys who invited him are so credulous!!!

I seem to have morphed from the "good" mod to the "bad" mod.
Since I wasn't paying close enough attention (can't be everyplace to once) I going to make a judgment call based on obvious intent by the OP to bypass the rules of this section to get invites and give him what I feel he really deserves.
That and he really is a cawk in "giving" (which I doubt) away accounts that people graciously gave him.

[piratebot]

it's hilarious how this turned out haha.

big ups to all those people who gave away their invites to this trader.

I didn't read this thread, so I'm gonna take a leap of faith and assume he is trading/giving away accounts he got invited to.

This isn't scamming. Scamming is when a negotiated trade deal goes awry. All the OP has done is abuse the trust of his inviters, which isn't against our rules and is an unfortunate reality people here have to face. Don't blindy trust new users who haven't formed any identity.

[IdolEyes787]

Obviously we don't agree on the definition of scamming .
I believe in the more literal sense: obtaining something (as in an invite )through fraudulent means(as in pretending to be something that you are not).

[1000possibleclaws]

Yeah I guess, but either way it's something protected by the inviter's common sense.

@ pro: What do you propose to change in our 'system'? Because from my point of view it's fine. Go to an exclusive invites forum, and you'll still find some rotten seeds. Use judgement while inviting users and don't come crying if they havn't met your expectations, because inviting them was YOUR responsibility, not ours. It may not be morally right, but it's not our responsibility in the same sense as when a trader is scammed. You are in no way forced to fill anyone's requests, but while trading there is been a binding agreement behind what is given and received and we acknowledge this.

Unless traders are restricted from giving away or requesting invites which won't happen, I can't see a reason for this to be enforced because people who make invite giveaways make stupid choices all the time, and it's completely their own fault and they have to accept that responsibility. You could argue that it's a trader's own fault for being scammed, but if we get proof of a breach in agreement then we will ban the user to prevent this again. If you want to make sure someone hasn't given away accounts that he's gotten in a giveaway, then do a background check yourself.


Sidenote: the OP was basically requesting invites in the wrong forum, so I am in no way defending him on his infraction. I guess these threads should be closed as soon as recruitment offers or email exchanges come up to prevent this abuse in the future, but aside from that I don't really have much pity for the inviters. It's just another BT lesson you hope you won't have to learn first hand.

[IdolEyes787]

I agree with you on that mate.You can't mod against stupidity.

[Sanka113]

Gotta :fst: this place. People like this must be making the tin foil hat biz boom. I guess the Mulder was right, trust no one.

[pone44]

Waste of a post and spam (sorry-classic)but before inviting anybody anywhere you should know them or at least check there posting history get profile links, never know anyone's real intentions as i think someone already mentioned. His 1st post is asking for swedvdr. I am not surprised.
http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-bittorrent-43/t-looking-swedish-tracker-lot-movie-content-331416

Hello,

I am looking for a swedish tracker with a lot of movie content specifically. I do not mean swedvdr or so.

I am for example on the hunt for a DVD-R of the movie 'Let the right one in'.

Hope someone can help me out!

1st forum post:D

ps. if you have any names, tell me!

I am not trading or looking to get an invite, I have read the RULES!
Obviously was new here-not to BT. 1st post ^^

Not a issue but why did anybody believe him in the first place? :idunno:? Some requests are too much and that was disrespectful to those that did invite him, lying and promising he is no trader..
Members should care less for BT rep! I think it is meaningless! Does not mean anything really. I never look at anyone's rep at all and think they are better than any other member because they have 50 rep points. Wow. :rolleyes:. Am Glad this was left open!
I wish i saw this earlier. :frusty:

I initially thought his original post had an ulterior motive behind it and it looks like there was something to that. I was glad to see that FST users were so forthcoming in helping out the "new" guy, but now it seems their generostiy was taken advantage of. FST has really gone to dogs. Crap like this kills the spirit of sharing here.

[pro267]

That and he really is a cawk in "giving" (which I doubt) away accounts that people graciously gave him.
Respect, man. Finally a mod here with enough sense to do what's right.


@ pro: What do you propose to change in our 'system'? Because from my point of view it's fine.
I beg to differ. I assert that the system here is rotten to the ground. Members here are allowed to have 10, 20 and 40 accounts. They trade/cheat/scam/flame on one account and then move to the next. They beg for invites on one account only to move to the next and trade them. Do you consider that to be "fine"? :blink:

And don't try to tell me you don't know about them. I'm sure you know about plenty of them, yet you choose to ignore the phenomena, since you (backed by the support of your superiors) don't consider it your business to interfere. According to you, it's the problem of your "other" members and tracker staffers to sort out all the crap that's left behind, which was facilitated by the platform you're providing (FST). That's the difference between our views: I do believe that if FST considers itself as an integral part of the community, and wants other to see it in the same way, then FST has to take action against such people. The ambivalent response most FST staffers usually express towards such occurrences encourages others to repeat these actions, and is surely among the reasons that deter staffers from FST.


Go to an exclusive invites forum, and you'll still find some rotten seeds.
Don't even get me started on these so-called "exclusive" invite forums. If you were trying to make any point you just blew it.


Use judgement while inviting users and don't come crying if they havn't met your expectations, because inviting them was YOUR responsibility, not ours. It may not be morally right, but it's not our responsibility in the same sense as when a trader is scammed. You are in no way forced to fill anyone's requests, but while trading there is been a binding agreement behind what is given and received and we acknowledge this.
I disagree. One of the major problem here is that you usually do nothing to prevent such occurrences. I believe that if you know that a guy has 10 accounts and is leeching invites from one account and trading them on the other then it is your duty, to the members of FST and to the entire community to take actions to make that stop. Why wouldn't you?

Why does one member, obviously lying to other members and hurting the trackers which we're all part of, get an amnesty from you? Why wouldn't you want to protect other, descent members? Why wouldn't you want to protect the community you're member of?

[danio]

i invited this guy to tehconnection.. i guess it's that acc he wanted to trade :/..this is it.. i'm never invite anyone ever again.

his trackername is capel6, expect to lose your accounts fucktard

[1000possibleclaws]

@Pro: all user's we find with multiple accounts get DP'ed, meaning they only have 1 account with access to the invites or trades forums. Your message seems to imply that if someone receives invites via giveaways, he his now not allowed to be trader. Being a trader is not exclusive, and they are still allowed to participate in giveaways and requests. Whether they are given invites is another story, and completely up to you guys.




Go to an exclusive invites forum, and you'll still find some rotten seeds.
Don't even get me started on these so-called "exclusive" invite forums. If you were trying to make any point you just blew it.

Umm what the hell are you talking about? My point is that you're gonna have to use your judgement wherever you go to find your invitees. You either read that wrong or you've completely lost me.

lol, did getting him 'globalled' not go according to plan or something?

[danio]

lol, did getting him 'globalled' not go according to plan or something?

lol.. i made a mistake when i edited the post.. :)
but no, i'd expect most of those accounts to be disabled by now, and i don't care if this is against your rules.. i warned him before i invited him that if he lied to me, he'd regret it..

i'm just lucky he was stupid enough to tell me what his fst nick was so that i could easily spot that he was trying to trade his TC acc. the stupidity some people show never stops to amaze me.

[Twolf13]

Wow! this thread has really gotten wild. I posted earlier in this and was and am truly new. One person graciously gave me an invite to a site and another site, demonoid, I got from a friend i trade FB dvds with. And I have learned much. I can now, not see how a person can use so many sites, as in being members of so many...as it is all i can do to keep my ratio up, on one site to an acceptable rate...let alone multiple. The one invite I received, I won't mention, but thank you....and the 2 reasons I have not gotten on it, is it is the site is down a bit, trouble accessing it, but the biggest reason is I want to be able to start there when I am able to get my ratio up to what it needs to be so as not to reflect badly on the inviter. Would I like to be part of the better SCT and so forth? Yes, but not right now...I spent 1.5 wks getting my ratio up to par at demonoid....so this cat is resending what i originally posted for further invites. I can't see joining any others right now because I can't in good conscience put an inviter at risk of me not being able to maintain a certain ratio.
And i am still trying out the Usenet thing..Hard to keep it and the torrent up..

But i learned earlier in this endeavor but even more so now, the sacredness of an invite...the inviter is putting their rep and their acct on the line for you...and it is very hard, for me at least even torrenting 24 hours a day, to keep ratio up at one site...let alone multiple. So I applaud those who are members of multiple sites, but no way can I do it and maintain ratio on all..just very difficult. So for any other newbies, try one site first and see how well you can manage it before getting a whole lot of invites and putting other folks accts in jeopardy. It is HARD!. And I understand now, why reading here, they say to start with the free sites, or lower echelon ones first. Makes sense, and thanks folks for your help and advice! I finally got my demonoid up to over 1 and haven't used it in a few days, just wanted that ratio up to protect my friend's invite..so thanks to everyone and hopefully this helps other new folks that are new to this stuff.
Am sorry about all that has happened in this thread, I have lurked but been busy getting that ratio up and trying usenet...hopefully things will go up from here. thanks all...t

PS..this is not a plug for invites...just gratitude..i DON'T want any invites right now.. Hard to maintain what I have! I am just happy to be here and to learn at a slower pace than first anticipated from you all.
