Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
Although i agree with you on this subject, FST was opened for a free conversation without any rules but maybe it's time for a change who knows maybe you'll convince someone in here.

Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
To what end would change be.
From the viewpoint of someone at the centre of the whole scene, I find FST a wonderful place.
Now I know that several of my colleagues think that FST is a bag of worms, and they are right in many respects, but some of them miss the opportunities present.
Is the glass half empty, or half full?
Philosophical, isn't it, but that is what FST is like.
If you look at the overall membership here, you will find trader upon trader, and many people who don't give credit where credit is due. But look deeper, and you will find those special members who do give credit where it is due.
Things don't come easy, and finding those quality individuals certainly doesn't, but when you do find those quality individuals, grab them with both hands.
FST may be a hot bed of dissent, but underneath the mass of stupid members lies a core of solid people who are what torrenting is really all about.
On a side note, it should be the topic that is under consideration, not the topic starter. There is no need for name calling or any other flaming. In fact, I find the topic starter to have a better grasp of the English language than most others here, and find his posts easy on the eyes.
As for the post about roast Fox, don't even go there, or I will get Detale to roast someones' arse...

Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
For a thread that started off to be about respect,there seems to be a decided lack of it here.
And that includes the individuals who always feel the need to show how big their c**cks are.
DasFox is a good guy who only tries to make things better for everyone on every site that he's on.
End of story.

Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
I really liked ur words about the pirates respect each other :)
In fact I like my name and I keep it alive since September 2004
About FST, FST rules forbid trading and public giveaways of the trackers whose staff are active here, good deal imo, if there's a respected tracker, his staff should respect FST community and he'll get it
-
Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
FST should respect tracker rules in general in order to keep all sites safe and good for the shared userbase. But I really think the users should be the ones out here representing their trackers and telling people not to giveaway their account. The FST staff could probably delete/lock a few more threads and set a higher bar for posting in the invites section, which I think would be a good idea. But really, if we as a group don't condemn irresponsible and disrespectful account/invite usage, then who will?
-
Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
I think scene should respect the rules of copyright holders and trackers should respect rules of the scene.

Well, it's nice when they stick around after they're done getting into their "dream" tracker. :)
I don't even notice the people who only use the invite section and then disappear anymore - they don't affect much - and they usually don't get what they're looking for either. :rolleyes:

Have you not seen the rest of the forum? :O

Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
So much drama in all this stuff, man chill out, we are talking about sites only, let people do whatever they want, it's not like you trade a invite with other person and you will be thinki'n about it for all the month and balmming yourself and crying in the room feeling guilty. Lol
It's a stupid trade, you get the site you want to have access and that's it, in one second you've forgot it.
People need to stop and think what is this all about, and this is all about sites, and data, files, nothing more nothing less, you get access to the site to download stuff you need/wish for your daily-life. Sites that open and close every year.
If people want to use different usernames LET IT BE then! OMG how much time do you spend on the internet? It's just a hobby not a LIFE were you need to always use the same name.
Btw: I do use always the same nickname but it's because of memory issues (and lazyness to memorize the nicknames/passwords) if I want I create another one and won't feel any pain LOL.
I have never traded too, I don't have the need to do it and I love all the sites I have so I won't...
Oh well... no one is gonna read this but whatever ;)

@DasFoX
Dude next time you make a thread like this at FST make sure you have a bulletproof vest on. Things can get rough here some times. :D
-
Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
lol...nice one coder I actually got a chuckle out of that. Come on guys lay off him. He's newer here and as so not as jaded. Sgt I know you used to push hard for change so no need to trash him. I agree that it's a pointless argument FST is FST and that's not changing anytime soon, that's just life ;)
As for respecting the rules...well there's been some good advice here. Just do what you know to be right and be content with your own character. FST can help you make some great friends and if you don't like invite trading then don't visit the invite section. You'll be surprised how quickly it vanishes from your world if you don't bother to read it lol.

Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
Hey - I'm not trashing anybody, it's just a POV, admittedly not coated with honey & sweet sticky toffee and infected with a million stupid smileys therefore not to everybody's taste, but that's all it is a POV, doesn't make it right or wrong, I call it just the way I see it at the time.
I refer you to a post made by Polarbear not long ago about keep seeing the same things posted over & over again, maybe some just need to acquaint themselves much better with what has previously been posted, by getting to know, & have a good understanding of, what goes in here and why, and that comes with experience of the place and having the knowledge to know what can & cannot be changed, for all the good and all the bad that that entails. Sometimes the newbs do have fresh ideas, but they are few and far between and the more fundamental issues have been done to death many times over, maybe asking a gentle question or 2 would have been better than telling everyone how it should be.
Exasperation is as good as I can get to describing some of the posts I see here these days, and maybe it's about time I just left well alone, who knows.
But if people are getting upset about posts in a forum on the interwebz, then dear me there really are more serious issues to be addressed in the world at large than mere printed words.
Have a nice day y'all.

Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
I'm sure this has already been said, but most Bittorrent sites use foreign servers to avoid the legal responsibility attached to providing pirated media in their own countries. If you can't see the hypocrisy in those same sites insisting you not go elsewhere and break their rules, I don't know what to do with you.

even on a pirate ship there's a captain, there's a crew and there are rules.
charter on a pirate ship and then go ahead and tell them that you don't care about their rules, because they're breaking the international law of the sea in the first place.
join the mafia and tell them that you don't care about their code of honor, because you think that they are criminals and hypocrites.
go to jail and tell them that you don't care about prison rules, because they all were sentenced.
your argument that a private bittorrent site must not enforce its internal rules because they are breaking the law is very weak if not utter bullshit.
you go ahead and create a club, an organization or an internet site based on pure anarchy. let's see how far you get with your no rules policy.
trackers enforce their rules for the security of the site, its members and to make a non chaotic, organized form of filesharing possible for you.
if you think that is hypocrisy, ignore the rules and (hopefully) get kicked out or buy you're fucking media.
your childish "you break the law, so don't make any rules" approach doesn't work.
you want to get everything for free from exactly those site you accuse of hypocrisy.
learn to show some respect and social aptitudes towards the people who put their asses in the line of fire for you, kid!

Yes you are and polarbear to ... insinuating DasFox will do giveaway's himself, telling him he is not entitled to an opinion just because he's not a long time member and only has 400 posts.
You are discrediting him, I believe every member with a normal IQ can see that.
Being old school or not has not much today with the subject here. Maybe he shouldn't stress on it in every post, but in my eyes the ones showing of are you two (SgtMajor and Polarbear).

I was under the impression people could express their opinions here, even if it goes against the opinions of FST-staff or it's members. He did take the time and effort to express his point of view and this is what he gets.
When TheFox is talking about missing opportunities, I think this is an example of it.
And the ones calling him names are just loosers that don't have enough vocabulary to express their point of view.
Anyway ... you can start bashing on me now :naughty:

Why don't you throw in another line and make us see how old school you are instead of the no comment. :P

Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
There's quite a bit of bashing going on, and it's not healthy in any measure.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but we do have a set of unwritten rules that dictate what is acceptable banter, and what is unwarranted abuse.
Banter is good and healthy, and often helps to forge friendships where none previously existed. Abuse starts wars.
What started as a simply OP bashing has now descended into a general bash fest. It's like watching football fans laying into each other after their teams have played.
Thankfully, there are quite a few sensible posts to keep things sane.
Oh! On a note about oldschool, I probably predate most here, as I first got into computers back in the 70's, when a 90MB Phoenix hard drive took two people to carry, or a Winchester 200MB cost £4000 (equivalent to £16,000 in today's money).

Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
Welcome to the future, gramps. :\
-
Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
One must remember that the invites section was created as a safe place to trade and get invites a good while ago. Back then trading wasn't really as frowned upon as it is now. Now, almost every tracker that uses the TB kit recycles the same rgeneric ules that forbid trading giveaways and cheating. Maybe if trackers would make up and add to those existing rules people may respect them more.
-
Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
you sound like a absolute dipshit DasFox. When you keep saying these kinds of things and then saying your oldschool, been around forever etc.. just shows how little you do know.
There are thousands of trackers, how do you expect FST staff to know every single rule of these trackers? it should be the trackers staff's responsibility to handle users who break their rules.
-
Re: FST Should Respect The Rules Of Trackers And Uphold Them Here!
We can't ask FST to respect all trackers rules.it just a dream will never come true.
And i think the thread poster is aware of this as he mentioned that himself.
Fst has several agreements with many respected trackers and i think we can work from there.
It's hard if not impossible to stop trading but we can work on lessen its harm.Also bashing or insulting the thread poster won't help,I think we should discuss his ideas not his personality.
