Anyone wanna tell me that hint? :w00t:
Thanks :) Yea things are much better now, crossing my fingers that they stay this way. My acct on here was hacked so not all of the posts on here were mine. The post about me leaving here wasn't done by me. There were a few vulgar posts sent from my acct also that weren't from me (sorry).Quote:

70 or so of those were also done by the <censored> who hacked my acct and PM'd random users offering ftn invites :P
Anyways, thanks for that though <3
i didn't think that this was so easy. do you have any tips for other users to prevent this from happening to them?Quote:

I'm pretty sure you're fine. This had to do with the whole situation i've been going through recently with my information going public etc (my entire pc was hacked). If you wanna play it safe, install a software firewall.Quote:

Kyl3, it fully depends on, what are your priorities. If your priority is content, speed etc, then I don't think you are missing much - I believe, they have basically the same content (maybe sct has more files) and you can't get any faster speeds than you get em on sct. If your top priority is community, well, then I guess it depends on how you get along with different people n which people fit you better. If your priority is rarity (collecting disease has been spreading very aggressively lately), then I think you should overthink whether you really need to go any further or just value, what you already have.
FTN interested me too for some time, but I gave up - ain't much of a writer to write A4 full of poems and heart-breaking words, neither don't wanna start licking someones arse. Pfft.. I just noticed how bad my English is lately or is it because it's 642am :o

We aim to do whatever we can to make things better for our users, even if it means spending money out of my own pocket which most staff do in contrast to other sites who require more donations or p2l approaches.Quote:

Call what I say hype all you want. We promised a change, and we made it (no ratio system). I promised a phase 2 which I stated above, and it will come.
I applaud you and your work Brandon and I wish you success as you approach phase 2. I can see now why people stumble over each other to get an invite to FTN.
Don't have to write me a poem or tell me heart-breaking words, or lick my ass to get an invite. I think i remember you pm'ing me though, but can't remember what you said. Anyways, I tend to invite those users I see who don't bash people, who are friendly, etc.Quote:

Hehe I think I'm one of those... :) But yeah Presto sealed it for me. Unless Brandon is feeling extremely nice today, I'll stick with ScT for a long while.
I am actually :) Would you like to check it out?Quote:
