@Idoleyes : Is the Ungiveaway still on ?
In that case :
My request from this post :-
http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-bit...-invite-385242
Hey guys,
I am wondering if anyone could spare one SCC Invite as SCT went down last month. I don't use torrents that frequently but was a regular at SCT. ;)
I could show the Ratios for BitmeTV, TT and ThePlace because those are the only torrent sites that I use. And that is why I am looking to get into SCC. :unsure:
I got similar feedbacks that SCC is the best alternative after SCT and hence requesting an Invite. :)
Well I am not sure if they are offering any Invites or if some member have it or anything.
So I'd appreciate a Invite if possible; and if not then its perfectly alright. :D
Regards,
Re: Martin Luther King Jr's Birthday ungiveaway/I have a dream
I see some problems here...
1) You did not even acknowledge me frog joke. :dry:
2) Honestly, that is the only thing I really cared about, but you get bulleted points anyway.
3) What kind of member would you be on site-x if you cannot be bothered to post a meaningful, themed, yet random video (or pic if you are truly lazy) in this thread?
4 We appreciate quotes, but you only quoted yourself from last year. Aren't we supposed to forget everything that happened last year? I think there is a song to that effect...
5. I am as for eating poisoned fish as the next guy, but I do find that when I have money I eat better than those who do not. Especially when there are no more fish!
6. Rivers are greatly overrated. Sometimes they aren't even fun to swim in. Do you realize that fish piss (and worse) in the water. Yuck. I'll take a well-maintained swimming pool any day.
7. Trees are cool as long as people put them in proper locations. Just think about how many people die each year due to the careless placing of trees. Remember- Only you can plant a tree in a safe location.

I suppose that the ungiveaway is open until it closes.
OK Saroman here are my thoughts on the matter. First let me say you seem like a nice guy.I r checked your profile on FunEnclave an it gives me some reassurance that you aren't just all about getting into tracker X.That said I see several sticking points with filling this request.
1. the old trading thing .I don't really care that you traded a couple of years ago( although there is some evidence that you got into ScT through it) but it raises the possibility in my mind that you might do it again in the future or might still be doing it under another guise someplace else ( of course even with someone with no history of trading this is always a consideration).
2. Some of your more recent posts .You asked for (and received ) several good general trackers that you now apparently aren't connected with anymore.Also you disavow being at others

like KG and goem which to my knowledge don't disable for inactivity.This again doesn't instill any confidence in your honesty.
3.As MBM humorously attempted to explain ,your request.
Besides the facts that you didn't deem it important enough to write another one but merely copy and pasted the old one or that you "don't use torrents very often" so a top site is hardly a necessity ,you have offered me no reason other than "it's like ScT" why you want to be a member at that particular site ( which imo is inferior to several less "elite" places .But then again I was never a big fan of ScT either.)
This isn't a straight out " not now , not ever " statement by me but I would appreciate a little more assurance/backstory if you want me to consider your request a little more seriously.
@ MBM the worst thing is trees near rivers.Especially the conifers lurking there all prickly like .
If I have learned anything from my years in the mental institution country , never turn your back on a Douglas Fir .Never turn your back mate.:(

Absolutely! Whoever planted those prickly, i-want-to-ruin-your-whole-day-of-swimming trees right on the edge of the water (not so coincidentally, where people have the least amount of protection from such green harbingers of pain), did so out of sheer spite!
As a cyclist, I do not have to tell you of the dangers that exist on paths. What is the one thing most likely to cause you to suddenly change direction (even though you have been comfortably enjoying a nice straight ride? A tree. And what if you deny this tree's "I was here first attitude?", you are made a mockery of...yeah.
I could go on, and on, here. Cars and trees (it's always the car's fault, isn't it? Houses and trees (they just come right in uninvited sometimes- rude!) They make use of sewer lines without even politely asking, "hey, mind if I...?". Again, rude!
Trees seem to be slowly, and quietly winning the war. It's natural enemy, the beaver, is almost extinct. Must be nice if you are a tree. Without this natural predator to keep things in balance, who will save us? Woodchucks? Hardly. How much can they do anyway? Lumberjacks? Canada doesn't even have any left.
This may seem drastic, but I believe I have made my points. We need to cut down all "naturally" grown trees (you know, the ones that have just sprung up here and there, without any real design. Trees need to be placed in orderly, clean rows. I do not care if we have to cut every tree off the side of a mountain- this must be done! In there place, we will plant much smaller, less deadly, and intrusive trees. These trees must be kept in line, or there will be, once again, the chaos that we now face. I will also argue that once these trees reach the age of 10, they, then, be removed, and a new generation of non-dangerous trees be put in their places as well.
This "quiet killer" has lurked for far too long. Some of these trees have been looming over us for decades. Isn't it about time we put an end to their plotting once and for all?
Re: Martin Luther King Jr's Birthday ungiveaway/I have a dream
Must point this out just had some seriously good weed right now and am feeling fucking amazing!
Re: Martin Luther King Jr's Birthday ungiveaway/I have a dream
Okay...I was lurking, as I do so well. I saw the pic kush posted and I had to go to that site...
The pic on the opeing page made my sides hurt and hunt for my inhaler...Thanks kush...

Btw, I have a curiosity question here...Since this thread has opened, how many invites (or approximate) have you issued?

As you mentioned Trading can always be an issue regardless of previous history and as you mentioned yes, I did trade few years back. But what I can assure you is that No I don't trade anymore, nor do I want to.
I am not going to be sugary about what I traded and why I won't or anything. Just the straight shot fact that - Neither do I have the time nor the motivation to waste on mindless trading/bargaining/arguing etc. Because after all we need to differentiate between NEEDS and WANTS.

I am a member of several Technical forums, General forums, Trading forums, Sports forums Fun forums etc. I try to visit these as and when the time permits or depending on my mood. Besides I am taking a full time management degree which eats up my day from 9 AM - 9 PM so yes I don't actually have much time to UTILIZE all of the trackers that I have/had got.
Now in terms of usage of trackers - Initially I had 2mbps Download speed with no cap so I had the liberty to use the tracker as and when I wished. But now I have 20 GB limit/month (10 GB - Day + 10 GB - Night), So I only have tracker that I NEED or which I intend to use regularly.

Firstly, I appreciate your candor and the extra effort that you took to carefully explain; why you think that I shouldn't have the invite.
But regarding me not rewriting the request - my opinion is that its just another tracker and a community associated with it. There are much more important things in life apart from this.
I was peeved when the ScT was taken off, because I used to be a regular there and I liked the tracker both in terms of speed and content. But I didn't have the urgent need for another tracker, So didn't look for the replacement then. Few weeks ago I thought it would be nice to have SCC now that there is no ScT so I decided to post a simple enough request on FST with
I believe intention counts more than the expression associated with it. I have been a member here long time and I have seen my share of requests and I know to what extent people go while expressing their LOVE towards the tracker and how it would make their life.
And again I would reiterate SCC or any other Tracker/Forum etc is just another source of download and a community associated with it - with whom we share few things, learn few things and humor around.
Its not like our life depends on it. :)
@MBT :- lol I read your frog joke and I didn't get it so may be I am just not used to the humor around here. :P
Oh btw appreicated the Bullet points though ;) :whistling
