After reading the classical bt empowered kid talk on post #36, I start to understand the reasons why it is a failed tracker.
horrific site, i lost my acc due to inactivity, obvious, like 99% of every1 ever had acc on there.
waste of time of a site, ran by paranoid freaks who are real nerd geeks in real life for sure, and play serious on internet. :D :D
This is the reason why BT staff try to distant themselves from FST. You guys make it your goal to give your 2 cents where its not needed.Quote:

I just find your comment a bit rushed or maybe just defensive. Its easy to judge and jump to conclusions whats hard is to be patient and put yourself in others shoes. I dont know you and you dont know me. And neither do you know anything conclusive about skittles other than a few screenshots posted here and there and a few things you heard from people or your ' sources'. That being said I genuinely have nothing against you.
@IdolEyes787: You clearly misunderstood me. Anyways all i can tell you is go read Schiz0's old posts( where did the member search go?). And afaik i remember you were part of the rabbit so i do not get your argument about "but seriously you need to face reality and accept the fact that your little closed "communities" by the mere fact of how they have chosen to operate are the true reason for being high on traders "I want " lists and not because of any "hype" generated by FST". Also take a look at how many trade threads were posted after skittles was put in the wtaw...
Also I am pretty sure my words are going to be twisted and scrutinized by you guys shortly, but do not bother with that until you really think it through matte.
QFE why such a sudden change in stance after posting this before. I say this because i honestly want to understand...Quote:

I on the other hand want to know what QFE means ? Assume I get the QF part.
Yes I was a member of FTWR and a damn good one too if I may be so bold although a lot of good it did me since I was nonjudgmentally viewed as being less than the biggest doofus there simply based on my association with this place ( no it's not a fucking trade site .:angry: It was created as and remains a filesharing forum .The trade section is something that is a separate part and whether one decides to be a part of that is totally their own choice)
Now, again feel free to correct me if I'm wrong (btw I hope you aren't assuming that whatever I state here I take as fact ,it's simple opinion based on my own personal experience,which makes it as valid or invalid as anyone elses- a point you seem to miss) given what I know/understand places like Skittles because of the extremely limited user base and the type ofsycophantperson attracted to this sort of site and being that type of sycophantperson desperate to maintain their place there the whole thing starts out as or degenerates to , a group of cookie cutter people sitting around doing little more than fellating each other with nary a dissenting ( or original) voice in site ..errr sight .
Btw this little statement went further to confirm everything I said than anything else I could possibly add.Not fucking needed ?Quote:

As for the world being a better place I personally think it's much better if there are things like tolerance and free speech over what you have suggested but then again that's maybe why I'm not a member of Skittles :ermm:
One last note or actually a restating of an old one ,everything said here is opinion . I don't and have never claimed to know everything or ( God forbid) be right in everything I say .Actually in fact that's why I say a lot of things that I do so that ( being somewhat open-minded) I still have a chance to learn or at least benefit from other people's (frequentlysometimes ) differing opinions.
I think that is essentially where I differ from both you and the majority of people at places like Skittles.
Again about the WTAW .Besides the again overlooked fact that I am/have been continually vocally against it at the place it would be the most good to be( unlike ,at least up until this point being as it were pretty fucking late in the game , yourself:ermm: ) you also seem oblivious to the fact that places like IPT never come into trade talk.
As I tried to explain earlier,why exactly do you suppose that is?
Also FST just for the record doesn't "set" rarity which apparently is by far the most pertinent thing.:mellow:
Also post your frickin' "real" name here and enough with the stupid I'll PM/I'll hide it (imo big part of the problem with "misunderstandings") bullshit.
Who the fuck are you anyway that necessitates the secrecy, Bruce Wayne?:dry:
They are not, thats why after so many threads(including screenshots posted) this is the first and only time I am responding. I am just a little annoyed at the fact that some people here care too much about others when there is so much shit in their own backyard... Just wanted to point the facts out sir. Also i agree with you that their opinions should not bother me but lets just say i got carried away for once :yup:Quote:

Now you can start posting again about stuff that you previously did not care about but now take it so personally for some reason. While I go back to minding my own business and enjoying life. Good luck.
Once again with the false machismo and apparent arrogance .
I actually care what other people have to say . Terrible me.
no no see you dont get it agian, I am just tired of posting here when you dont get a simple thing. That is you need to mind your own business.Quote:

You'd be wise to follow your own advice.Quote:

Talking about being defensive. :rolleyes:Quote:

Regarding that bit " You guys make it your goal to give your 2 cents where its not needed.", AFAIK everyone is entitled to have their own opinion, and it can't be anyone else's intent to gag them. That's not how it works around here, and if that clearly doesn't make you happy, then go to those places where everyone mutually fellates each other, as Idol said. Everyone is nice to each other and use the <3 a lot.
About your nick, no, I'm not curious at all. If you want to post it, fine with me, if not, then fine with me too. It's not that it's going to make any difference to this discussion.

The hype was not really generated at FST,more like another forum :whistling:
Fck the WTAW. Only certain people care about that BS. So if FST was a no trading, no movement forum, skittles would have recruited members here? I really never had any interest in joining this site and I am sure they do not want me as a member as i am a part of FST.
I never really check the trade section but never saw any requests for this site, hype or not.Quote:

Indoors.Day
A small figure sits hunched over a glowing computer screen
rainbowman(not actual name) : "I have better things to do than talk to idiots on some lame forum that anyone who is anyone laughs at" .
Sits back smiles and sucks on large Code Red Mountain Dew.
This made me chuckle... the only staffers I know who 'distance' themselves from FST are those twats who try to run 'l337' trackers/communities and do a piss poor job of it too.Quote:

Staffers at decent sites, who make an effort to be open, who try to avoid being 'l337' and who want to make enjoyable communities for their users can be found on these forums frequently. Some staffers even come on here to help disgruntled users sort their problems out too. Hardly avoiding/distancing themselves from FST is it?!
Or soz... FST is a 'Trading Site' isn't it? So I suppose by that logic, the fact that there's a Movies & TV section on here kinda makes it similar to IMDb too then doesn't it?
Fo shizzle.
Burnsy said it all! :PQuote:

You'd be surprised to see the number of two faced twats who diss and whine about FST on every IRC they idle on.. in hopes of sounding '1337' and being on the same page with other 'more established' bittards, but at the same time, have accounts on FST and try their best to play all leet and shizz.
now u guys scared him off. he wont return, because fst is not leet and members are cunts.
lmfao every1 knows about this garbage site now
i take all credit
Damn, that's one rainbow I never want to taste.
Cmon chief, you must love skittles. The sour and tropical ones are better.

Skittles is a tracker, hype of the tracker is driven by people on the outside looking in. Most of the Skittles threads here have been started by people wondering what it's all about (a small minority started by bitter banned users). If you haven't got the idea by now then let me reiterate: Skittles is just a big circle-jerk run by donkey/sheep-lovers. If you're not into that then the place is not for you. The site itself is shitastic and is designed so you feel all ghey as soon as you log on. If you join the site you better have lube ready since the gheyness is just a prelude to mass amount of cawk forced down your orifices.
No wait... You're not a member so you don't know what you are talking about. You are just jealous or bitter about the lack of cock you have!
Am I doing it right?
taste the rainbow
I do actually agree with rainbowman to some extent, you can't see the whole picture of what Skittles is if you're not a member. But on the other hand, freedom of speech is supposed to be one of the pillars of our civilisation...
I'm getting old and this is something I've picked up along the way: Repression may not give you the results you want, but in fact the exact opposite. Trying to pressure members into being active may result in disabling a large portion of them for inactivity. If I'm active at a site, it's because I like it, not because I am needed to be.
Just my 2 cents, and while they're not really needed, they're ALLOWED.
the answer is yes. i'll point you to sites like cinemageddon and it's sister tv site. the sister site has 5 year rule or something. works just fine.Quote:

You can't compare something like Cinemageddon's year rule with Skittle's two-month rule. Skittles themselves say that the only reason for the two-month rule is so they can be off the radar. Cinemageddon disallows anything that has come out within the last 12 months, and even once a new movie has had a 12-month run, it most likely won't get uploaded to Cinemageddon anyway because there aren't many new movies that fit Cinemageddon's theme. The 12-month rule doesn't affect Cinemageddon anyway since they're such a niche tracker. That is why their rule "works just fine". There is always content available to be uploaded that fills their niche, so the tracker stays fresh. Skittles doesn't particularly have a niche (flac, movies, movie apps?). Well, actually, I guess they encourage "homerips". That's not really much of a niche anymore either, when you consider that many trackers have their own encoding groups, Wunza exists, and most things on Cinemageddon and TV-Vault are ripped by users.Quote:
