Good luck on getting them back. When mine got disabled I got it back but without any invites, which is fair enough. The people at the What IRC seemed quite reasonable so you got a chance

For what.cd irc.what.cd #what.cd-disabled and for Wafflesdont know..
they dont need to be real-life friends, they can be people you met on forums/message boards. and i dont know why everyone has a mentality that they NEED to give away all their invites. just hold onto them until you see someone in need who you trust.Quote:

but really, how many people do you know who you can simply walk up to and ask them if they want an invite to what.cd, and who will gladly accept it _without_ you having to basically sell it to them (like telling them what bittorrent is, what what.cd is all about, how awesome it is to have all the music you will ever want at your frikkin fingertips... all for just following the rules and keeping a good ratio!)
the whole ratio thing really turns people off... they'd rather use that vuse for 15 bucks a month. no lie. fukking retards... meh, maybe their is some logic in actually not breaking the law (forget what.cd's laws!).
no, if they start to really enforce this no-giveaway rule... they will see a major decrease in the amount of users coming to their site. but hey, maybe that's what they want.
its simple don't use your invites if your account is too valuable! every invite that you give out increase the risk of your account getting banned. i mean common if there is this person that you know who 'deserve' a invite. he most probably have it already! :)
I'll inform EVERYONE that NOT do any more giveaways of invites to what.cd.
Staff know more than you think, and for a giveaway you risk that everyone you have invited will be banned, and even your account will be disabled.
SO, IF YOU WANT YOUR ACCOUNT, DON'T DO ANY GIVEAWAYS !.

by the way, it's easy to stay within what.cd rules and still share invites with those who really deserve it, even if they are users here ) you just have to wait for a proper request, ask person for profile links and if they're good and you're on the same trackers - to continue the process there. not mentioning the fact that what.cd staff is very, very generous to allow to most of the contenders to enter the site directly via interview on irc :)
Probably by the way you type :PQuote:

its not hard to catch ie: the person you invited uses the same nick etc and then trace back via invite treeQuote:
