I agree with the OP,but then again people are free to choose. There needs to be some sort of regulation on that site,otherwise there will be a lot of pointless encodes. I personally only go for scene encodes if there are no internals available (happens rarely).
Hypothetically not really no.Quote:

Yeah I was aware of all that... I thought he was referring to .nfo's and info contained in those... something I've never, ever come acrossQuote:

Fair one, but my point being, I've never read an .nfo file advertising leech slots, or the sale of sources... I know they're always interested in free hardware and 'affiliates', but the original point in question was the inference that .nfo's contained details on how they generated revenue (http://filesharingtalk.com/threads/4...=1#post3637370), which to be fair, I don't remember having happened...Quote:

Well obviously, which is kinda the point... doesn't matter anyway.Quote:

Only enlighten people who have enough intelligence to use their imagination/common sense, which seems to be lacking on this board.
Or how about enlightening those who really have better things to do with their times than trying to be in the kool klub? (Wooooooooo... Gooooooo Sceneeeeeeeers....)Quote:

No comment that the scene nfos usually have very little useful information, and is mostly filled with ascii graphics and shoutouts?
Totally agree (well apart from sometimes checking some technical data), but if you're in the kool klub and have imagination and common sense then you're able to take a completely different meaning from the shit contained in them... I wish I woz kool:sadwalk:Quote:

Most scene notices these days are written by illiterate idiots who consider their section of the scene (something mundane like Algerian-TV) all might. Either that or its "l33t" p2p users spamming ridiculous shoutouts to their 'bros'. The real scene take their security seriously and don't often concern themselves with trying to manually stretch their e-penis.
They're cool like that.Quote:

At the moment it feels as though the best is not an option for some until judged, an experiment-with each site add other peoples views into one thread then we might even push the boat out and learn to create a poll to decide the top 10 of HD trackers,
Or maybe its best lie low with this we don't want the best becoming another OiNK. R.i.P
