I don't understand why it is so difficult to get an invite. It's not like I'm asking anyone to do anything illegal. Come on, help a guy out...lol.

The reason the site went to invite only was because fucktards would use fake credit card information to buy credits which resulted in great troubles for the site. Now that it's invite only, the inviter is responsible for the invitee. And it they cheat the site, both accounts get banned.
I for one have almost a years paid credit that I would lose, plus any trouble I would have to go through to start a new account.
So yea, it's a little hard to just hand out invites to people that only have three or four post.
I was lucky that a kind member here sent me an invite, but after joining I found that to do be able to do anything useful on the site you have to buy credits ($2.40 for 4 weeks). There are numerous other sites where those features are free. I may just have missed value of the site as I'm very new to usenet.
I also would like an invite, however two things may preclude this:
#1. This is my first post on the forums
#2. I already pay for a binnews account. Is newzbin superior to binnews in any substantial way?
I have been using Newzbin as a none member for some time. I always wanted to be a member, but now I NEED to be a member. Please, someone send me an invite.
Thanks you
same here ive been using that site for years to see the new releases. i could use an invite to:)
I don't see the big deal with the site. I accepted an invite from a friend just to see what the fuss was about. But from what I've seen, everything you can find on the site you can find on other NZB sites. And for free.
I'm only a few months into Usenet, so I don't have the most experience yet. But am I missing something critical that makes Newzbin invites wanted so badly?
I think people like the site since it has a pretty simply format...easy to use. I used it when I first stepped into the newsgroup world, and I kind of got used to it. But I've been out of the scene for awhile, so it looks like the site is restricted to members only.
It'd be nice to be able to use the site to look at what's posted. Anywho, if anyone doesn't mind and if you're feeling extra nice, would it be possible to get an invite? Thanks!
iv got a few zewzbin invites available, im looking for waffles invite..
All gone, will post again once I have more.
