Brandon has never ever been in it for the money, everything he does is to keep all his members happy.

that's really good to hear, you don't see that everyday on normal trackers. Do you happen to know what kind of developments?

Wasn't much torrent activity when they still had the ratio system but that didn't bother me. :smilie4:

And how about now? How have things changed?

I'm not too involved at FTN, but what has changed is that they removed the ratio and the activity on torrents has increased, oh and pre-times are perhaps a little bit slower. :unsure:

Tbh only leeches want something that has no ratio, and experienced BT users shouldn't care about ratio since the whole idea of BT is you give as good as you get.

SO back on topic: I would like users who are members to answer to get their views. I understand if you don't want to though, seeing as you might get into trouble for talking about it.

That's a trick question, simply because the site is whatever you make it out to be in your mind.

Of course if you've been aching to get into it due to it's "shut gates", and "hidden" status, once you get in you're not going to be anything less than satisfied.

I remember when I got in I thought it was all the rage. Browsed the whole DVDR collection to see if there were things I didn't have, and I did find some packs and stuff with more eclectic flicks, but in the end I wasn't able to get many because they would drop to 0 seeders often.

FTN is good because of it's no ratio policy, and the site-skin is attractive. However the forums are relatively dead, and there really isn't much to it other than that. I'm not bashing FTN, I'm just saying if you're expecting it to be this awesome other-worldly thing; it'll only be that while you concieve it as such.

It isn't really anything more than a tracker like all the others. In fact, for content and speed, as well as ease of seeding, TL is infinitely better. Ah, it's also easier to leech off of TL; in FTN you have to click on every torrent you want, be redirected to the page where it's upped, and only then can you dl. It's a tad anal if you ask meh.

Don't break your back for it unknownman.

Sorry I didn't mean to look like I wanted to get in (I don't), in fact I wanted to show the others here that are "dying" to get in, that at the end of the day, its not all its hyped up to be.

As for the trick question, I asked for personal views hence I used the phrasing "Is it all you thought it was going to be?" so I'm only looking for your feelings i.e. disappointment/ amazement.

If you get what I mean...

Re: F*N Users can you answer me a simple question?

Dream of a tracker?... that´s just ridiculous, I dream of Jessica Alba, that´s a more than justifies dream, right?.

About FTN... a very good 0-day tracker, no stress due to ratios, slow connections, etc. But it used to be better before becoming P2i.
