My monitor is covered in ink from signing for my online purchases, so forgive me if I read that wrong, but 1) there is a contract, with the torrents given in consideration of your acceptance of the rules, 2) or there is no consideration and therefore no contract, 3) or perhaps consideration is an antiquated concept so it does not matter, 4) maybe there is a contract, but it is unenforceable because it is contrary to law, and any judge would leave you both in pari delicto, 5) but there is one thing for certain, clicking is acceptance of the terms and conditions on a torrent site just as they are on an ecommerce site.

If your answer is something ignorant like "because you'll get booted if you don't", then why make threads whining about it? Justice will be served.
My answer is something ignorant like " because I'd like my word to actually mean something"
Argue all you want about legalities but I never willing gave me word to any entertainment corporation.
To illustrate the difference : you order me not to hit you and I still do .Would that ethically be same thing as me promising not to hit you and then doing it?
Or maybe it all just comes down to you being comfortable with lying while I am not.
Btw you've already called me stupid and ignorant want to add retarded for the trifecta and really demonstrate your class?
Re: Are some people just defective?
Congratulations. Enjoy your petty moral high-ground. You're stupid because you expect other criminals to accept your self-indulgent contradictions. You never willingly gave your word...grow up. Would you sell this garbage to a jury?
Re: Are some people just defective?
Who are you to judge? Would you sell your useless posts to a jury? Going by what you wrote in some other posts are a criminal yourself. As you do participate in filesharing. Or are you just a hypocrite?

I believe with a little bit of effort on sites such as demonoid or IPT, you can work your way up to TL. Great speeds and content, incredibly easy to seed. For the average user, you will never need more content than whats there. Maybe if you are particularly interested in certain content, you could find a niche tracker such as bmtv, bcg, whatever to fit your interest. But when people see WTAW threads and drool over sites such as UK-T, FTN, FTWR which they will probably never ever get in their lifetime, they turn to trading.
Trading results from being unable to access their "leet" and "rare" sites. Threads like WTAW overhype and glorify rare trackers, even when they may have less content and worse speeds than more common ones. In response, these leet sites cut off invites even more to combat traders and collectors, just exacerbating the problem even more.
As for cheaters, some people are just lazy. But it also has to do with this craze to get into higher trackers, where 99% of the users have seedboxes, and they don't know how to seed after coming off demonoid with a 500 ratio. What do they do then to download from their favorite rare tracker? Cheat =/
PS: It is very disheartening to spend a good couple of minutes thinking and typing out a post, only to submit it and see its only a fraction of the size of your massive post :(
i honestly dont care what you have to say after you "ASSume" autism has a role in being a "defective" person on this forum. Thats ignorant. you're ignorant for even thinkin that was an "ok" joke (if that was a pathetic attempt at a laugh).
