Have they ever opened signups? :unsure:
Why can't people get in via trading anyway?

Re: How do people get into FTN?
You need to donate multiple times to receive an invite.
IP script prevents trading.
FTN's website is slow, and traffic is even slower if you want something over a day old.
Such a shame that people hardly even use the tracker... as opposed to collecting it.

Re: How do people get into FTN?
You just need to have a friend that is a member there(and this friend have an invite).
-
Re: How do people get into FTN?
This is how people are in FTN:
- You're in it
- You're not in it
If you're in situation #2 then you're fucked 'cause chances are that you're not getting in there. :shifty:
-
Re: How do people get into FTN?
I think people can be in at FTN if
-didn't trade here
-are a good member here (helpful)
;)

dont agree at all, oldest torrent goes back to may 2006 and is still downloadable, i find no speed problems with older torrents and people are very active from what i see there.

Re: How do people get into FTN?
If you want to get in, distinguish yourself from the hundreds of other people standing in line behind you. Be an active member of trackers and even community forums. Being an active member on trackers does not mean you get a seedbox and once you hit a 20TB buffer you're automatically let in, it means get involved in the community and make some friends. You never know who may be watching, or what status they may hold in other communities.
Some people trade their way in. Often it ends in the account being disabled.
In all honesty, I wouldn't suggest getting caught up in seeking entry. Be happy with what you have already. If the opportunity presents itself, accept it, if not, the world keeps spinning. You're not going to find something revolutionary there, regardless of where you are people are people and content is content. Sure, you'll be able to wave your e-penis around a bit more, but if that's all you're looking for it's not worth it.

lol what do those have two have to do with getting into Ftn?!
None of those two will guarantee you an invite.

Re: How do people get into FTN?
i have often read that you don't find ftn, ftn finds you. those things that jorje and karid are talking about are the things that will help it find you. good luck! there are no guarantees in life ;)

Re: How do people get into FTN?
Put "Anti-trader, community guy" in your signature, in your custom title, in your profile, and in your avatar. And hey, while we're at it, change you nick to include it as well.

or just be one...easier than pretending just to get into some tracker you're not going to be happy with if you're not really into those type of things...just a thought

Then, I go to their forums and I say I agree with everyone else that posted before me, therefore, making me a community guy. If some user disagrees with something, I say immediately that he shouldn't go against staff's ideas, as they were written by God himself.
Every time a staffer posts at some random forum, I post something like "<3 insert-staffer-of-your-choice-here"
And the cherry on the top of the cake, I rent a Gbit seedbox and I seed as much as I can so I can get a uberleet ratio and pretend to be an even better and reputable member.
The "For dummies" how-to be a reputable member at a tracker get in ftn.
Feel free to use it, it hasn't any copyright.
Hope it helped :whistling:

It is corny, but the fact remains that most people get in without having a req thread open. One could interpret it that way...

Re: How do people get into FTN?
Well I did get in through another trackers irc chan..
-
Re: How do people get into FTN?
From my experience, I'd say being active here combined with luck is enough to get invited there. The users with invites there need to be convinced that the person they're inviting could be a potentially good user.

I was talking about invite trading. And the fact that you don't see many successful FTN trades here doesn't mean that's not how a lot of people got in - this isn't the only place where you can trade.
Not favoring trading (I don't even do it myself), just commenting.

That's TTC. :lol:

Re: How do people get into FTN?
Most of the time users are forced to "donate" ten euros to get an invite to FTN. You probably won't get in without parting with money ;)
FTN is no different to the countless other trackers charging for invites.
-
Re: How do people get into FTN?
but i thought tey dont even have invites atm and when they do only good users(uploaded loads) get them?
-
Re: How do people get into FTN?
Money money money...
this is the answer.
However i know people got in without spending a penny. You just need to know the right people, as always.

Err, what? Most of the people there got in without spending a dime. If you make repeated donations they might give you an invite, but nothing is guaranteed.

Ask Dildo mate, he rejected two f*n invitations by now! He probably 'traded' them in exchange of unconditional love here at fst.

Re: How do people get into FTN?
so does anyone on ftn have invites at the moment?

Re: How do people get into FTN?
imo you should just follow cabalo's tutorial.
And to make sure you are fully covered,add themartinator to your friend's list and talk to him about basketball and your newly discovered formula to popularise the sport with eskimos ;).

Hope everyone had an awesome new years.
Few announcements!
I'll get the webserver finished sometime this week (long overdue I know). Should make the site a lot faster.
Invites should be handed out shortly as well (again long overdue I know). Remember to choose who you invite wisely
And last but not least, we have a new addition to the site that I should be unveiling within the next couple of weeks which I'm sure you'll appreciate.
I'm also hoping to finally implement a new feature that should also raise a few smiles in regards to seed speed.
Don't ask me what the above new things are, its a surprise so bite your tongue.
-B
:happy:
