Says the man whose first post here was a rant about how he failed a tracker interview. Just as every poster told you in that thread, it was dumb then and it's dumb now.Quote:

Well, you didn't read that thread carefully. :) I passed the small test that everyone was required to take after receiving an invite. That thread was about something else.
Edit: Maybe I am a little unclear. But I am saying everyone who was invited to hdbits at that time was supposed to take a small test. If someone didn't pass it, that person wasn't able to register on the tracker.
Still, even if they are, (I have never been on their sites and I don't know if I have come across them anywhere else), how would you respond to someone who says that, "you are shit"?Quote:

Far too often, people let situations get out of hand before they try to work things out. I know once I get enraged (it happens) I stop listening and continue with my rage. Ultimately, nothing good comes from it.
Even though money is not an issue here, site owners want people to come to their sites. Most of these trackers don't make any money. That is A LOT of effort without financial reward! Ask yourself what was the largest group function that you have ever been in charge of...a party? An office? An event (wedding)? Now imagine that you have spent several years trying to make this group function the best it could be.
You probably would not want anyone to spoil that party (whatever). You wouldn't want asshole ushers at a wedding, would you? If people start leaving a tracker, party, office, the ones in charge will take note. Being at the bottom of a poll is a good indicator that people are not happy. Also, people who make positive comments are also seen as more credible and less bias. Try it...go on...Seriously, it works.....Trust me...:D
Well nobody put you or your friends to make a tracker. I dont give a shit on how much money or time you spend for tracker x or y , a tracker whit no quality users is a dead tracker even you spend 1 milion euros for it. So a good staff is needed to maintain a tracker , and i have the right to say that i dont or i do like a staffQuote:

Okay, I agree with you. I will try to make positive comments in the future. :)Quote:

Thanks, OlegL. I truly believe you will enjoy the results. :)
And SPY, I was not implying that you will be kicked off of sites for saying that you have the "right" to say if you like or dislike staff (and don't give a shit how much time or money went into creating the site), but people do read your post history and comments like that will make people think twice before welcoming you into a community that they like.
I do welcome you to try out your "rights" next time you go to a real-world party. Drink a bunch and start shouting things like,"I don't care who's house this is! The host and his friends are assholes!" Make sure you say it very loudly, too.
Then see how many people invite you again...;)
I touched on this in another thread.
If one staff member on a tracker is a bastard (even though they are just doing their voluntary job), then the whole tracker gets lambasted elsewhere on the net (not just here).
but when say, 90% of a countries users cheat, and the staff ban the country from that tracker, the staff have done wrong (even to members not from the banned country).
this is why this poll is nonsense, you cant lump a whole tracker staff, in with the 1 (bad cop) staff member.
and you will usually find, the ones that bitch and moan, have done something wrong to get on the bad side of that staff member to start with, but its never their fault, its always that staff member/tracker as a whole that gets the blame.
It used to rile me no end when i read ppl slagging us off, now i just laugh at them and their oppinion means shite all to me. If a member that was outstanding in the community and the tracker, turned around and said something though, then yes i will still get riled, but i will listen and they wont get banned, but i may loose my temper a notch or 2 lol.
And if anyone has not realised it it yet, its good cop bad cop routine. most trackers, and i would say every tracker with over 20,000 members, needs a staff member that is a stickler for the rules, and a bit of a hard nut (Pezby when he was staff, Cirno now for us) unless there would just be anarchy on the trackers.
The other thing as well with Cirno, he cares about the tracker, he will ban first, then its up to you to come into IRC and speak to him and state your case, OK he may not budge from his stance, but at least he is willing to listen to your case. And i have to add, (i have never seen this anyway) he is never foul mothed and abusive about it, like you can see elswhere.
just makes me laugh when i see threads like this, as you cant lump the whole tracker with 1 staff member who you got on the wrong side off.
