Invites - 15/08/08
We've opened up the invites again.
We've reset your invites a bit: users > 720p received 1 invite.
Everybody lost their old amount of invites.
PLEASE do NOT come whinig in forums, IRC or staff pm about it.
Someone fucked up, so too bad, only VIP's and higher can invite.
Well, there goes my chance. :dry:Quote:

Fucking faggots who sell invites need to stop being so poor.
The best HD site today is SceneHD no doubt.
:huh: nearly 500 new user signup the tracker ummQuote:

and thanx for e-bay sellers:dabs:
wtf? do they sell on e-bay? xD
The invite system will always be corrupt, there is no way to control or fight that, especially when a tracker becomes really popular. Knee-jerk reactions from tracker admins just make things worse.
To allow only a privileged users to invite people is a right thing, they have something to lose and they would approach it with responsibility. But establishing the official place to send applications and create a set of rules on which applicant can be invited and which cannot, would minimize the corruption and stop scandals.
lol I guess people do sell invites to trackers on Ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/HDBits-org-Invit...mZ330262595003
I doubt they would be open for long.
Just a matter of time till invites make their way into ebay lol
editZ: okay, i did not read last page when i replied. I only read like first three page....and now there it is already lol ^^
The only way to avoid invite selling is to open signups for a limited period...
So ppl wont buy while they can sign up for free.
It's very simple. Just take invites away forever and open signups every couple of months for a couple of days.
I don't know what the deal is with these trackers trying to be so damn private. All it does in encourage invite/acc trading and selling. Plus in a lot of cases makes content and speed lack as well by having a small user database.
fucking lame.
Trackers should stop sweating the seller so much, try to ban those bad users and just let the rest of the good users use their invites.
I mean, 1/1000 users is bad, why punish 999 good people and their 999 friends who want in. Paranoia.
Did you manage to give that invitation in time? :PQuote:

Quite a lot aye? 5000 is quite a lot. So by that we can deduce that they about 4000 less torrents than bit-hdtv. ;)Quote:

Over 13,000 and the good stuff, even 2 years old, is very, very well seeded. It has the best retention of any torrent site I've seen.Quote:

HDBits could go on forever without a single new user, without any problems.:yup:
Same thing will happen. It doesn't even have to be a member. It could be a non-member who sets up an auction everytime they hint at opening invites just to ensure that they never open.Quote:

And stacker they have 13,269 active torrents right now.
SCT has much worse retention than HDBits.... and I love SCT but go back 5 days and see anything but the top movies/packs and you will see that it is a 0day tracker...
The only problems I've got with bit-hdtv, that makes me not want to invest into them, is the stupid beowulf banner and the background with the diagonal pattern. It's just lame.
hd-bits.ro is actually ok(since they got rid of the p2l) and seems to have more new torrents per day than bit-hdtv, but they have yet to cut the mustard in regards to overall torrents.
I just checked the number of torrents they mention on the home page.Some of them, i assume, are dead then, but who cares.A great tracker.:DQuote:

No site can do that, and especially not a site like hdbits. Hopefully, VIP+ manage to hand out enough invites.
Umm dont say bit-hdtv LoL
hdbits good for they have internal groups and well seed torrents (2 years old torrent and you can download with 2MBsn)
:( too bad they closed doors again...
edit
if some1 upload USA & Poland womens volleybal match plz pm me ....
I bet you one of the only sites that could is HDBits. Everyone there is way too committed.Quote:
