Re: R.I.P FTN or not?

each time i login in FTN, i see a donation seeking news. I know i'm getting shit for free via FTN but i still find it semi-annoying.

Re: R.I.P FTN or not?

The real question is how many fake ftn members will request an invite once it shuts down.

I just read all of the News items since the first of the year. It seems like Brandon has had some money concerns. I know when my wife and I have a tight month, money gets brought up more often than when we have a windfall.

Most of the posts were either thanking people for donating, or were in reference to "controversies" surrounding invites as rewards for doing so.

Only one (maybe two) were efforts to request money.

All-in-all, EVERYTHING indicates to me that serious efforts have been made to keep the site going.

Besides, it would be a bitch because then we would have here all the "FTN refugees" thread here, saying they were elite and should be invited to other elite trackers. That kinda makes me puke.
If Brandon closes the tracker, then the IRC will be just like as it happened with sct, everyone trading. And then, only then, he will see the amount of scum which joined his tracker.

About paypal, there must be a safer solution, just like someone pointed out.

Just hoping they pull this one through, it would be absolutely shitty to see such a site go down due to technicalities.

:yup:

Also, not like FTN is some big loss, like SCT supposedly was. Just another 0 day tracker.

That's 16 in 16 weeks since the New Year...some have updates that coincide to the previous post.

If you don't like the News, set your link to the "browse", or "forums" page. :rolleyes:

If you were making a joke, cool. I'm just trying to balance out some of the negativity being thrown in the direction of FTN.

Yes, because there are literally 42 messages a week.

Nah, you misunderstood me. Cabalo nailed it. All the (sillier) FTN members won't be looking for just any 0day tracker.

I have an account there, and you don't have to feel bad for me. I think I will manage to survive it.
Thanks for the support though, but I will have to keep on living carpe diem.

Re: R.I.P FTN or not?

I fail at seeing how a site with the same content (presumably) as many other sites would be a big loss to be honest.

Re: R.I.P FTN or not?

I'm hoping it doesn't go down, for a couple of reasons really... but in the unfortunate event that it does, I can't really see any members on there having FTN as their ONLY tracker. Surely enough well known sites have gone down in the last few months for people to realise and have some other 'back-up' tracker (for want of a better phrase)

On forum about paypal problem:

Quote:

Due to the amount of fraudulent transactions last month, paypal decided to flag our account and found it to be nonlegit. They're not exactly willing to work with us on the situation. Just because I made the news post the day b4 we were issued cancellation doesn't mean we gave up that day. We've been trying to sort this for a while now

Re: R.I.P FTN or not?

Wasn't expecting this bullshit from FTN. One month without a paypal account, and no one from staff will step in and use their personal paypal, or bank account, or whatever, not even to temporarily lend funds. Sucks for me that pretty much my last 0day site's existence is so shaky. :/

Am glad they did work something out with their hosting company, and I guess a normal person might jump the gun and post some news upon such a shock. But it seems unprofessional.

Re: R.I.P FTN or not?

aren't there any other services that do the same thing as paypal? I am sure there are more then a few knock-offs?
