Re: I have a few questions about FTN
its a great site if you can manage to get in. wish brandon would talk to me so i could explain myself to him and get my account back. :(

Re: I have a few questions about FTN
Yeah tell me about it. I was at 58% of the most exclusive pack there, and now it's gone...So I deleted it from the HDD to save space for other shtuffs.
It only had 1 seeder anyway.
To the OP: But yeah. Don't think you'll have it any different from the rest of us. Try joining other sites first, get known, make friends (easiest road), and stay tuned here (sometimes el Brandon decides to make some inv gives and that) and you'll eventually get in.
DON'T: make a generic request in the BT Invs section like everybody else's. You won't get in that way.

Re: I have a few questions about FTN
How can I ever just be a normal member when this topic stays at the top of the page and is now 10 pages long lol :D I understand now that just being bold and asking for invites to FTN won't get me anywhere so i'm just going to chill out and be a member here and stop talking about FTN and "getting in" This was a stupid topic to be honest :(

Join Torrentleech or ScT mate it beats FTN in content and speed. Pre-times maybe slightly faster at FTN if compared to Torrentleech but who gives a damn about a couple of minutes here and there. In terms of the community atmosphere FTN would proberly be the best but to me it seems like your just interested in in torrenting so in my opinion TL would be the best for you. If you want an invite just ask.

Re: I have a few questions about FTN
In reality, I think hardcore torrenters like me strive for community after a while rather than torrents. This is why I post in forums a lot more etc rather than go download like crazy off a public tracker like TPB or something. FTN I believe has a very close knit community. Most of my friends are there and they all they me the same thing too.

Sir, I salute thee for thy classic line in gobbledygook, I have no doubt you will do well in the forums :P

Re: I have a few questions about FTN
no idea what you said, but it seemed like you agreed with me. lol
I'm not in FTN yet so I would not know, but I'm sure they have a great forum. I think most people want it for its rarity, which I believe is childish and stupid. Why want it if you won't care about it in the future? Bragging rights? Pathetic.
anyway, just my little opinion lol

if you keep asking for invites and break fst rules by doing this, you'll never see the invite section. just a friendly advice.

Re: I have a few questions about FTN
Couple on topic questions. Did people get invites again? Do they have pretty good forum chats? Specifically, is there a forum similar to what's The Library?

If you think What's bad, you should see Indietorrents; albeit, they are two best torrent communities IMO.

The new user tables were recovered so they didn't need to give the invites back

I never really posted in FST because it looked really disorganized and messy at first. I usually post in private forums cause I know most of the people there. My friend forced me to use this site and it looks better now...

Re: I have a few questions about FTN
So is ftn up or down cause i also get the squirrel page and assumed the site was down?

That's the truth. FTN definitely is a great site. I like it for the small userbase. I definitely have more of a sense of security there compared to a site as big as TL. It has some nice packs too.
But...there are other sites out there that are very good also, and are very often overlooked since they're not hyped as much, or are not as high of a "level" on that dumbass WTAW list. And since the OP seems to be new at torrenting, I would suggest that he discover one of those.
I would get into a site like IPT. It's much easier to get into than FTN, has excellent pre's and speeds, and a lot of content.

I'm not new to torrenting been around for a few years :)
It's just I have always stayed at the public sites and because of that never bothered to learn the full ins and outs such as keeping a good ratio and not having DHT turned on lol :rolleyes:
Going to private torrent sites for me is like when a kid goes on his first rollercoaster it's exciting and even though my connection isn't super fast I find it amazing the speeds you get from a private torrent site. I also like the big supply of scene material which you don't really see on sites like isohunt and tpb.
I admit I know nothing about FTN I read articles about it on zeropaid and torrentfreak and thought "damm I need to get an account there" because if the private sites I belong to at moment amaze me what is the "super elite" FTN site going to be like.
I just want to walk through the doors and see the other side of that squirrelmail page lol :naughty:

Re: I have a few questions about FTN
well, if you get into FTN one day, you will be disappointed, cuz there a lot of sites that are better and easier to get into.

Re: I have a few questions about FTN

Re: I have a few questions about FTN
Depends on what you consider the "good" in which case you determine what is "better" or "best".
First it wasn't good b/c it was slow loading due to its hosting location, which is not an issue anymore. Then it was slow in pretimes, which now it's in the top 2 or 3. Then it was slow download speeds in which case it has a seedbox seeding 70% of the releases on a gbit.
My guess is those of you saying its not good are those that were banned and therefore you have no reason not to slander it. Only thing FTN lacks is amount of torrents in which case they're building up, so if that's the case then the only thing FTN is not good at is it's age because amount of torrents also depends on time. Although, one could argue that FTN like other sites in it's catagory are 0day sites and really don't focus on retention (go get newsgroups) so your argument becomes invalid alltogether.
But at the end of the day, it's all about personal opinion. You can't say someone won't like something or will be disappointed in something once they have it just b/c you were/are. Personally I don't like to wear thongs, but you might love to wear thongs. To each his own :)
