what you think about me is really unimportant but I believe you are someone who think he is the king and always right.
well, we have different opinions or maybe I can't write it better what I mean because my english isn't the best ;)
anyway, have a nice day :king:

Oh lord, why do people do this? Just because someone can hold their own in a debate/argument does not mean they think they are right. Matter of fact, if someone knows they are right, outright, they will simply skim over the issue and completely ignore any comments. The fact that someone is arguing means they are willing to hear out different opinions on the subject; so I really suggest you stop sticking people on a podium when they have done nothing to show any ego.

Re: Brandon Flipflops on P4Invites
People are taking there E-Job posting skills to seriously(were can i sigh up to get a degree). The poor guy is basically asking for financial help regardless if hes giving out invites. Shit am surprise that people are actually against this. I THOUGH FTN WAS THE GATE WAY TO HEAVEN LOL. But i still love :fst: LOL

Re: Brandon Flipflops on P4Invites
How I missed this one is beyond me. Are you really going to try and dig up the FTN/SCT brawl again? Don't get me wrong here I consider both B and F good people and consider them both friends. They have their issues sure, but let's turn the fucking page already shall we? Great.
I would however like to comment on your opening post a touch though.

Brandon criticised Feeling when ScT sold invites, and said it was wrong. He's now realised he has to do that to achieve enough donations.
ScT always had enough donations through the invites and upload credit it rewarded donors with. Sure this was against the ethics of file sharing, but if it keeps the site running then so be it. Nobody's being forced to pay, the 5% of users who choose to donate keep the site running for the 95% of people who are too cheap to donate.
Whatever happens with those donations behind the scenes is anybody's guess, and everyone is allowed their opinion on what truly happens with it, but at the end of the day people have to realise that those people are donating willingly to keep the site up. If the site stays up then you have no reason to complain.
Big egos and donations really don't make a good combination, but it's better than the combination of 4736 ex-FTN users and no site.

Gee, how surprising is it that a friend of Brandon's would want to quickly turn the page. Those of us who've had to suffer his holier-than-thou attitude for years are enjoying seeing the person who just couldn't imagine why a site might need to sell invites/gigs to raise money brought down a peg or two.
Nice to see you're still about "Swax".

To fulfil popular belief you can assume that one of the following has happened;
a) They've let me out of prison for the day purely to go on FST
or
b) I've only just got round to installing broadband on this tropical island I bought at the end of November last year
If I let people know the truth it would just be plain boring wouldn't it, everyone likes to believe hearsay :shifty:

Have issues with the way a site is being run by the owner?
Use 'delacct.php' or send a PM to the owner to sod off.
That should help you get rid of the account you are so uncomfortable using.. and the rant would make you feel good at the same time.

True,you humiliated him to such an extent that he would probably hand over to you the ownership of his tracker and let you decide how to hand out invites. :yup:

LOL, well you just went from moron to complete idiot in about 15 seconds. I am friends with Brandon, I am also friends with Feeling and even Swax/Deviant. For you to insinuate that I would even participate in the whole SCT/FTN thing is just stupid of you. I refused to take a side then so I'm not going to start now. I have stuck up for SCT more times than you could possibly know about. So why not do a little research before you go shooting your mouth off like an a55hole, k, thanks.
I'm not going to presume what B's motives are as I don't give a 5hit. His site his business. The same thing I said about Fee when many people looked down on SCT for offering invites as a perk of donating. If the site needs money than offering invites is a good way of giving the donations a boost.

Hoi bud. Well put comment BTW ;) You know me dude, I kept out of all of this crap then and now. Honestly, this moron just annoyed me as it seems his motives are more about going after Brandon totally rather than pointing out 1 instance. Not to mention he just sounds like a whiny little girl doing it.

Since he's deleting all the posts on FTN's forum that mention this, clearly he's still capable of some shame. We at FST don't stand censorship and hypocrisy, do we? Let's take a couple of minutes to highlight all the posts Brandon's made in the past condemning other sites for raising money. I'll get us started with a couple from here:

This is just what I dug up in a couple of minutes - I know there are better ones out there talking about how he'd rather shut down the site than sell anything to keep it open.
Am seeing y'all calling this guy all sorts of names but honestly I don't see anything wrong with what he said above(I mean lets be honest).Is he lying or something?coz personally I don't see any falsehood given what he's quoted.

Re: Brandon Flipflops on P4Invites
We have to understand that people dramatize stuff when they dislike someone.(I don't know much about their dispute but I have a feeling Brandon might have been a little jealous of Sct's success judging from his comments)
Was Brandon a hypocrite for attacking Sct's staff about selling invites? - Yes
Does that make him a complete asshole because of it? - Maybe not. This guy has done great things with Ftn and has satisfied many of his members for a very long time and we can't take that away from him.
Everyone slips up once in a while that's all I'm saying.

I didn't intend to insinuate any such thing. I always speak plainly and I meant just what I said - I'm not surprised a friend of Brandon is eager to see people criticizing him shut up and ridiculed. Speaking of whiny little girls, I'm not the one making ad hominem arguments and bypassing the curse filter of a site I moderate. :lol:
sez hits the nail on the head - people are cursing and calling me names because there's no excusing Brandon's pathetic behavior. Is it really so ridiculous to expect him to admit he was wrong and apologize instead of deleting posts and banning members? Apparently, according to some of you psychophants, it is.

Re: Brandon Flipflops on P4Invites
Surely FTN staff are not enthused to break their own ideals (stress on the word ideal. ideals are not practical or realistic in real life), but if compromising is most practical way to keep the site alive, then I guess the FTN staff would be prepared for this public backlash. Think some people may be over-reacting against Brandon though. Don't see how being a hypocrite equates to 'fucking up', or really anything negative.
Everyone changes, and the stuff he said about ScT was well over a year ago, iirc. Only thing that this changes is, he will look bad if he chooses to question another site's P2L model from here onwards.
Also, breaking news: If you draw a picture of an igloo and a monkey and you use the FTN irc, you could have gotten a "free" invite for a friend. Must be an attempt to appease the anti-P2L members of FTN, because there have already been a flux of invites in the system lately.
