If you're a member of X number of trackers you're definitely a collector...

Couldn't help pointing out, but you could always ignore the users that deter you.

Oh no doubt mate. Sadly it's the "users that deter me" that represent the overwhelming majority of FST.

There are a few people and threads on this forum of value, but to me most of the talk here is tracker-bumming drivel.

Carry on :)

But some times the entertainment level is good for a break :P
But a good point really :)

Yeah the ignore function is great. Just blocked him myself. I had no idea that it would take away the silly posts. I thought it was a pm ignore function.

X = numbers of trackers you use + 3

i rather have too much warez ressources to choose from than too little.

of course i deleted some accounts and lost some due to inactivity too. i refused invitations to at least 10 trackers over the past few month. some of them are sought-after by many.

i'm a member on the best sites and i'm very thankful for this.

today we have an oversupply of content and speed. especially when it comes to scene releases. leeching was never easier even with slow home connections. to choose where and when to download the latest movies in high quality is pure luxury. this luxury is based on the variety of trackers i have.

it really could be worse ....

as sgtmajor said, why is it of anyone's concern to how much internet sites somebody signs up?

the word "collector" brought in as an accusation is often used by those who assume the other has more than he needs or deserves. enviousness is one reason for this allegation.

one shouldn't tell people what and how many sites they need. it's their individual decision.

p.s.
deadalive1 is looking forward to the day when bilkenter regrets his dark past and wants to join ftn or fsc.

Absolutely agree with this. Excellent points made.

As far as the p.s goes,
He tries to incite dismay on a daily basis. He is a plague on this community, a boil that needs to be lanced. The newer folks here who read his inane comments and posts get the wrong idea of what a quality user is and can be. He sets a poor example for those folks.

I am absolutely sure, with this statement, you can definitely join ftn and fsc, i have never thought it would be too easy to buy people... Such a shame, people cannot tolerate the difference of opinions. it is also called Filesharing...

different for every person.

i think over 30 is collecting for me

Exactly proved my point about inciting, thank you. Do I want to belong to those , absolutely and when others feel I am deserving of it, I am sure I will be.
You try and make everything about you, what you need to do is listen/read more and talk/type less.

And VIP is a Very Important Person, and that to me says that they go above and beyond what they should be doing on the tracker in question.

not sign up, send a PM to a staff member, say im staff on XXX site, can i be VIP please because thats what we do on our tracker.

If they want to be VIP then there is nothing stopping them, but they have to show they are a good member of BCG and deserve it, but lets be honest, most staff are staff on other trackers (for some reason i cant understand, i have my hands full just with BCG) so they dont have time to be a good member of BCG, so we never notice them never mind promote them to VIP.

---

some sites have "community VIP" class to avoid that. Anyone who is staff of an established tracker, gets that rank.

I don't think a reasonable staff would give someone a VIP status JUST because s/he staffs at that particular tracker.

From my understanding, most VIP'ed staffer know staff from the tracker that they were VIP'ed at.

And some trackers like ScT have like 11 VIPs. I doubt those VIPs are staffers from other places lol

editz: i quoted more than what i said :pinch:

Ok then tell us why you didnt make any statements including threats done by pb here...I am a virus harming everybody in everyway here. Why didnt you say anything regarding soulreaper? You are talking about people who disturbs others in any way... Didnt those threats disturb you in any way? or You are willing to overlook them ? Anyway i dont really see any need to argue with you. You hate me go report me, i am sure there are people who luvs me as well as who hates. It doesnt matter at all! not quantity but quality always. I am glad i dont have any friends who would use their connections to kick some people out though i have friends via whom i can get in anywhere i want. But i am happy with what i have

We only have 12 VIP and 6 of those are X-staff of BCG.

VIP on BCG is above uploader though, so they can upload anything they want, but do not have to upload regular to keep their position.

I`ve 87 trackers...but I`m only active in 63, so I don`t think I`m a collector.






:rolleyes:

Dude are you serious ? :lol:

Threats? I didn't see ANY threat made. I did however see a statement that he made. There is a difference between a statement and a threat.
Again we have a prime example of trying to incite dismay and disconcertion.

stfu! if you have 1 or more private trackers then you are a collector. Thats my opinion. But opinions are like assholes, everybody has one unless you have a colostomy. Then in that case you have no asshole so does that mean people with colostomies have no opinions?

You can ask mods here about the thread itself... or the proof that soulreaper has forwarded to skizo. If you dont, i can pm you things that prove it... Anyway doesnt matter, you obviously dont wanna meddle with other peoples affair. As long as you get what you want, it doesnt matter who lose. Ok got it dude, pls dont respond back so that we can avoid anymore spam...

And here it is again, now I'm done with you.

Well it does not matter how many trackers your in if you use them all your not a collector

How come every thread made here over the last week or so has within around 10 posts turned into Bilkenter VS the rest of the FST community. It's clear as day that he's talking complete & utter horse shit morning, noon & night.

Having not participated in any of these threads I've been able to take a step back and observe the situation objectively, he's obviously nothing but a sad lonely little attention seeker.

The most disappointing thing is that lot's of people are still dancing to his tune, don't you realise your providing him with the attention he desperately craves & this will go on forever :)

I collect baseball cards so Im definitely a collector. Also I fap alot & I collect my sperm in a 3 liter coke bottle. Got it filled half way already :D

lolol

Not only that JROQuinn your also probably gonna have to take advantage of the 2 for 1 deal at specsavers by the time you've got that bottle filled up.

Nevermind you can probably sell the fruits of your labour to the porn industry to help pay for your new glasses :)

Well I think when people first start using torrents yes they do sign-up to every site they can get into and its only a natural progression that after a few years you start getting more picky about where you stick around and even end up loosing what may to others there dream sites due to inactivity, but you could care less since you have what you need.

Beginning torrent user= join as many sites and most likely will even download every cam no matter the quality since they must have every hot file that hits the BT world.

Intermediate torrent user= you still have a lot of trackers but the pre times are the most important aspect of what site you download from and you now begin being more picky on what you download, since by now you can actually read a properly tagged release to see what kind of quality you are getting.

Matured torrent user= You have been around for a while now and most likely the pre times don't mean jack as long as you get some decent speed on your downloads and by now you probably are looking for more then just going to a site and downloading a release and saying thank you in the comments and you find yourself looking for that rare movie you loved years ago and want to see again.

I am not saying the above is a fact but its just my personal observation.

So my conclusion yes everyone is a collecter in the beginning but we all grow with time at least the ones that care about file sharing do.

I think i kinda fit into matured torrent user.:O

You were asking as to what to tag a release on another thread which showed you cant read a tag properly so that disqualifies you even as a Intermediate user and most certainly you do not fit into the mature torrent user if you see no problem with users trading accounts to get into sites.

^More like a mature FST loser.

1 month and a half here and you have more posts than Fred Astaire had monies.

Yeah but i havent downloaded anything without seeing ss too, if i see it worthy downloading i download. Other than that, i dont download usually, also i generally use rapid which is my download source, dont download much from torrents, dunno why, dont see much torrents that interests me anyway. Sometimes, mega game pack, or music pack, but rarely. I really dont use it, wbb is the best in my opinion, most of the stuff can be found there even though you cant find them on torrents. Also i dont download games when they are first released etc... At least i wait 1 month for another release unless there are good comments about the game.Also in my opinion, there are much rare things on rpd than torrents. Though opinion differs I think i still fall under mature category though i am not qualified with every aspect of mature torrenting

I think i am in the middle of inter and mature

10 ? 15 ? 20 ?? 50 ?


regardless of claims that they USE each and every tracker... i'm looking for a blanket statement. ... X or more == Collector

Well lets count em:
1 for ebooks
1 for games
1 for TV
1 General/rare
1 0-day
+ demonoid:D
+ an odd one (sport, MMA, AOM, etc)
+ one if ur over 18 :lol:
definetely id go for 8 (if ur over 18) and 7 (if ur under)

Anyway to see if someone's a collector jst see their giveaways. Ppl love to giveaway to 101 sites so they can be rep'd... Thats definetely collecting

PS: Doesnt FST has any option so I dont see ur avatar Raban? :whistling

Very well put. I never cared much about pretime, but I think intermediate is generally correct.

I might add that security, a good staff and a good uploader team are also more recognizable and more important to the advanced torrenter.

Such as yourself, you mean, dunse? :P

After I have read this thread some things have changed in my mind about the term collector.

I can't see anything bad on joining many sites as long as you abide by their rules and you are active. Besides, most private trackers are against leaking, that is, you can't upload their torrents to other trackers. So, the only way for you to get all the stuff you want is by joining some of the best general and specialized trackers.

I'm a member of many trackers (16) and I take care of all my accounts following their rules and being active. I always avoid to join trackers which I don't need, BCG for instance, since I'm not a gamer. I rent a seedbox because I love to share and I don't wanna be a leecher. I also upload new stuff and donate to my trackers.
Am I a Collector?
Maybe, but a good one who cares about his trackers as jewels :). I don't like the term collector though.

What I used to call a collector was someone who doesn't care about his trackers, their rules or their community. For me a collector was someone who try to signup on all the trackers he/she can regardless of the contents. The most important thing for a collector is the rarity. That's why I sometimes hate the Tracker Level System since this gives Collectors something to look for. Some of these collectors are even worse since they are not satisfied with one account and they usually create more than one and obviously they prefer the highest levels.

I'm not on FTN or FSC and I definitely would love to get into them but I'm not desperate because I think I already have all what I need. I'm on SCT, ITS and SCL but I also like Demonoid a lot, since if fits my needs.

So, if you call me a collector you should invent a new term for the people who don't care about rules or the community of their trackers and only cares about the rarity of them. I don't want to be tarred with the same brush, that would be offensive.

PS: According to these DKre8ive1's definitions I've always been a "Matured Torrent User" since the beginning lol

why do people post threads when the answers are not a single factual answer but rather the only rightful & true answer is the opinion of the person reading the question & their answers all vary.
pointless.... Unless you have some agenda that you are trying to know all about certain people here on this forum & if that is the case then you need to get out into the real world from time to time.

there is no "blanket number" Its all dependent on the user. I can have 5 & only use 2 of them....that doesnt make me a collector, that just means the other 3 are useless to me & I just wanted to get a feel of how the community or what the content is like. Because regardless of what people say about content, someone might enjoy the content when 10 others say it absolutely sux.

Now I have many trackers, some of which I dont use but i keep just in case of something i cant find anywhere else. Does that make me a collector of those I dont use except for that rare occasion? Thats a matter of your opinion which is useless.

So in that case if i get purged from that tracker for lack of activity then that is the only opinion that matters & is not goin to make me cry. Such as the recent case with ScL. Maybe they will get a good member to take my place. Chances are that will take time since the scum & ignorant of the torrent world outweighs the good guys such as myself & others.

^^ I agree with JROQuinn what's the point of breeding ligers?

none i tell u, none

JROQuinn-True! to each his-her own. Some members probably use all the sites they have, others may not? Some are collectors/traders ,some just have a lot of friends and maybe signed up when new to torrent sites, then being invited to sites harder to get into but still maintaining your old accounts, so the person who invited you is not penalized.

I do not know 50 really good sites! That is a lot-maybe too much? 20 sites would be too much to maintain for me. Someone else could probably handle 20 different sites and use them personally...
