Hobby,money,collector ????????
Let us all know
So that I could indulge in my penchant for dishonesty by getting into something that I could lie to the people that had the good graces to allow me to participate in by trading for.
No wait that's you.
I'll go with boredom then.
Oh.. another one of those..
for the community :lol:
Spoiler: Showto get free stuff of course.
to become a buffer wh0re and be l337 and have a large e-p3nis ..
I evolved into a torrenter, then beyond.
to find some extra e-gf. :P
To get free stuff with my 128Kbit line. I had just moved from dial-up to that, and someone told me about this torrent thing, which looked awesome because you could pause your downloads and resume them later.
well to be honest
i wanted to download tutorial
i began with rapid share and megauplod
then i escleded to public tracker
then to private tracker and forgot about the tutorials
now i 'm using it for movies and series
it's an addiction :'(
teh 1st one to say this directly.
Seriously, for me, my reason was the reason that anon said earlier. I used to download HD movies from very begining. and it is disgusting when download stops (corrupted) somehow due to bad internet connectivity after downloading 95% of movie.
Because of the authorities. Back then seemed a better way to remain anonymous, which has proven to be false. Nothing is more dangerous and insecure than torrenting, apart maybe kazaa...
to download movies , music , games , programes :) for free
To upload movies i was encoding
to have large e-penis.
To get beautiful women. This is a joke, of course.
To tell u the Truth,I was looking for some mature Porn,and I did NOT want to pay for Rapidshare,Megaupload,and Hotfile, -prenium acct.
Since Porn can be in the Gigs, I knew there was a better way, so I got into Torrents, and BTW , the word "Torrenter" seems really Cool and sexy to me....LOL
I thought people Agree for Anal if u become l33t torrenter..
On Serious note when i started downloaded pirated stuff i use to hate copying and downloading from individual links (didnt knew existence of dwnlod manager) and thus monitor my system continually..
hence moved to torrents
To get stuff for free without having to deal with queues etc. Plus you could get almost anything via torrents.
i got into torrenting b/c i didn't/don't want to fucking pay at least $500 just to use photoshop cs and versions beyond
I found a unique group of individuals who focuses on having, and sharing, that access to others with the same interests. It is a realm that skirts several laws of "the establishment" for the greater good of the masses. Unfortunately, most of these down loaders do not take full advantage of the materials/media they obtain. No one is hurt by this, but accountants claim damages every time someone downloads a song. Will it get listened to? Will it be liked? Would the consumer have ever purchased without hearing the songs?
Regardless of that, those who have desires- and know where to get them filled, we can indulge in entertainment- movies, music, books, magazines, artwork, comedies, foreign media, and infinitely more....
This is the first bloodless battle for the freedom of electronic information (media). How hard are you willing to defend what we have here? I believe it is worth fighting for. Gather your friends, and look closely at your cause. What will you do for it?
Hah. It looks like yesterday that I read about some invite-only trackers and thought I'd never get on those, because they were invite-only. I was fortunate enough to have a friend offer TL out of the blue on an MSN conversation, however. :)
For a long while, my only accounts were ILT, bG and TL, and those were already too much for me. Lost TL due to inactivity in late 2007, actually. Same happened to ILT on mid-2009. :(
I never thought being a member at this or that tracker would make you a better person in any sort of way, though. I got in torrenting for the files, stayed for the files, and left it because I found a better way to get those files, it's as simple as that.
I wouldn't have paid for most of the stuff I download, that's for sure. If piracy wasn't a possibility, I'd be using Grooveshark to listen to my music and waiting until the latest movies are on TV. Or maybe even go to the cinema, if I hear exceptionally good reviews about a movie (and that's still subjective).
to download some stuff.
I'm not a torrenter. I'm a file sharer. Always been a file sharer. whatever method/protocol gets you that super rare file you've been looking for for months. Not nostalgically and irrationally holding onto one method longer than it needs to logically be used for, always moving onto whatever is the best at the time. Always will be that way.
And as a result, I continue to use many methods for a variety of reasons. Including of course torrents.
I don't have a love for torrents - for the torrenting method. I have a love for files, sites, communities, people, and an endless fascination for file sharing (and everything that surrounds it) in general. Mostly I find bittorrent irritating now. LOL
It's hard to remember the real reason but there was a definite transition for me between DCC files on IRC to using torrents. Probably something to do with ease-of-use because let's face it, easiest option always wins.
Because napster quit workin :\
for sharing
Someone on a general forum posted about a site I could use to download free porn. The site in question, cheggit, had just opened up to the public I believe. I ceased being a "torrenter" when I got fed up with the bullshit.
I mustn't buy account premium as HF,RS... to download
Because I could.
I became a torrenter to score with women .
No wait sorry , that was why I became a toreador.
Guess I'm going to have to go with boredom again then.
for files, and maybe a little for hobby.....................
it was faster than going to blockbuster
awesome question!
I had tried a couple of times to use bittorrent but it was too complicated for me back then,
but then I saw that the entire Star Trek Voyager series was in there,
so I made up my mind and dove all in.
So in short, I wanted to get all my favorite series.
I could write a full essay into the evolution of me using Bt,
but that is not what you asked.
I know :ermm:, but I don't do it on purpose,
sorry if it aggravates some of you, I'm trying.
Well maybe I misused the word awesome, but I do think it is a good question to make.
Yeah, Voyager; although I agree DS9 was beter, as someone said once "it was the best show ot TV (at the time) and no one noticed".
But Voyager had a more personal or sentimental appeal for me, as it was how I was introduced to the beauty and elegance of the franchise.
lol man I know, that's how we roll here,Quote:
