A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
Hi, Feeling. I have a question. When will you do your next invite giveaway? I know that the ScT rules forbid invite offers on FST and on private tracker forums. But would I be allowed to request an invite to ScT in the invite request section of FST? I know that ScT people would have to donate money in order to buy an invite. As things stand now, I can't find anyone who would donate money to purchase an invite and then invite me. So, please do another invite giveaway. Maybe I'll be fortunate enough to receive an invite from you. Thanks for reading it and please answer the questions that I have here.

Yes. But non-staffers would never be allowed to do giveaways here because the ScT rules specifically forbid them. Hopefully, after reading this thread, Feeling will agree to do another giveaway; otherwise, I will still have to look for someone who will agree to donate to ScT to purchase an invite for the purpose of inviting me.

Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
sounds strange that the staff would do giveaways but make rules against them.i doubt that there have been one.
-
Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
There was one: http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-bit...invites-287860 . But a non-staffer would never be allowed to offer invites like that.

Not going to happen and not everyone has to donate to receive invites......

But at least one invite giveaway has happened here in the past, so what makes you think it won't happen again in the future?.. And I even have less chances to be invited to ScT by someone who doesn't have to donate to receive invites than through someone who has to donate.

Why should anyone donate 20 euros and give you an sct invite for free? :rolleyes:

There is no reason why anyone who doesn't know me should do this. That's why I am hoping Feeling will do another invite giveaway here.

i believe the giveaways happened when sct used to give out invite/s to users (N.s if feeling is going to feel very generous again, but hey its worth a try i guess), and now they're not free, and im sure most ppl up their free inv, unless someone saved it for this long, and even if they did, i doubt they'll just give it to you after saving it for this long.
not being mean, just letting you know how things work since you seem fairly new.
:fst:

Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
Okay, I guess that means this thread is useless and Feeling will repeat the same thing that you just said if he sees this thread. So, please close it if it's useless.
-
Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
DjGrrr will probably finish the new design before Feeling does another giveaway. Both will never happen.
ps if you couldn't handle HDBits atmosphere SCT would not be a good community fit.
-
Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
not discouraging you but did you see the requirements he had for the giveaway, you needed to have a seedbox.... seedbox = money (monthly fee)
p.S you can close the thread or leave it open its up to u, but if you want to close it it's under thread tools.
-
Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
Yeah, I have a seedbox... I will leave this thread open and hopefully, Feeling will agree to do another giveaway after seeing it.
-
Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
It doesn't sound like it will happen. The atmosphere may (or may not) be to your liking and the pay-for-invites thing doesn't set well with a lot of us.
However, I thought your question/request was a sincere one. Good luck, OlegL! :)
-
Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
If you have money for a seedbox then you can simply donate for somebody you trust so they can invite you. Why would Feeling change the current system just to make you a member.
As of right now FST is in the shitter in terms of reputation for pretty much all established torrent trackers.
The only options you really have is to pay for an invite or join Sceneaccess through What.cd or Waffles which is better or basically the same in every aspect as ScT.

Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
I'd do the transaction just like I've bought them through others and for others in the past. Everyone's doing it. But I'm not allowed to pm and the staff here would probably find this as selling invites. So do what everyone else does.
Go on IRC and find someone you know has SCT. Chat them up about SCT and how you hear it's awesome. Ask them to do the transaction for you, sending them money via paypal that they then transfer. Then enjoy the best torrent site online.
-
Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
The site has been hovering around capacity for awhile now. It hardly makes sense for any staff to give away invites when the system they have in place is working fine and there is no demand for more members.

Well, I guess I will have to find someone who I will really trust if I want this to happen. Thank you, guys, for your responses.

Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
This thread sucks.At what point does it turn into sct vs THE MIGHTY GATEWAY TO THE SCENE?

Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
SCC is hardly a contender although it has made some big strides in the last year. Its the poor man's SCT, but SCT has no true peers.

i sort of agree with you, you get the same stuff on TL for example. Exept for porn and the great packs, but you get that elsewhere anyways. :cool:

Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
As TSOL said, memberbase has been hovering near full for a very long time, and I don't think there were be any need to recruit in the near future.
In addition, its extremely unlikely that feeling would recruit here, more likely in some PU tracker forum.

Thats gotta be one the stupidest responses I have seen on this board in while. SCC has been ahead of SCT for a while now.
Granted we are talking a few seconds apart in some areas but in terms of keeping a ratio and content SCC is the king as of right now.
-
Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
While you could debate over which is better, you can find SCC invites more easily at PU forums where they do recruitment.

Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
Why is the pre time to general people so important, why is it so important to be on 1337 trackers why is it important to boast about them once on them?
-
Re: A question to the ScT staff leader Feeling
The people that boast that they are on them are idiots.
I generally won't be active on a 0day site unless it has a fast pre time. Why be a member of a site that just steals shit from the other sites that have fast pre times. Why not cut out the middle man.
Unless a site has great user created content or specializes in a certain area then it should be trying to compete with the best. If they don't have access then they should shutdown if they are a 0day site because there really isn't any need for them.

I agree about the ones that boast being idiots :)
The other sites to me aint stealing it, torrenting is about sharing, if they are stealing aint you?
If all the slower so called 0day sites where to shut down where would all there members go that use them sites?
So basically only 1 part of that I agree with :)

Can you tell me what the point is of having dupe files being released everywhere at a slow pace when sites that can release things fast already exist? I see it as a complete waist of bandwidth and they are really only probably looking to get donations or recognition when they have a shitty site compared to others

Because not everyone can get into those high speed sites, as evidenced by user limits.

Everybody on What.cd and Waffles can get on SCC. Everyone on HDBits can get on GFT. It really isnt that hard to get into TL or RevTT or PTM which don't have the best pre times but get everything in a respectable amount of time.

OK so all the members they have who cannot get onto these 1337 sites and enjoy the communities on those sites where they ment to go to get there stuff?
I think there are too many trackers about these days but saying they should all close is taking it way to far :)
Imho some of the smaller trackers have a far better community spirit than the 1337 trackers any way.
So over all your statement is self centered :shit:
