jam just stop talking, you are only making matters worse for yourself
Honestly, this new rule isn't going to affect a lot of the users. Most will keep their torrents active for quite a long time after they're completed. But it does show the trust that the staff likes to give it's users, and that is appreciated.
wouldn't increasing the user limit to 10k work better than this cheap tricks, no ratio, no seed time? Yeah, 20k peers out of 5k users is a good number in report to the # of users, but it's a terribly small number overall. For the site to work good, to keep the packs alive and speedy, you need users to work on them, but you don't have users now. Brandon said once the small userbase makes it easier for him to keep track of his people, but i'm sure he already knows most his users and he wouldn't have any trouble with some extra faces.
Increasing the user limit would probably just result in a bunch of seedboxes and trophy collectors, whatever that's worth.

what do you expect? Make a tracker with 10 users then hype it everywhere how good it is and how hard it is to get in. People want it just so they can say they have it and not use it like you say, and people who have don't use it because it doesn't have much practical use and there are more than enough alternatives. The entire approach to FTN is just wrong at the moment if you ask me and if i were Brandon i'd put some serious work into it, and the mentality needs to change to do that, 5k users isn't enough, no matter how many times you look in the mirror and repeat it.Quote:

It's more than enough, for a small private site.
However I'm sure Brandon is going to take all this bitching very seriously right now and invite another 30000 people into the tracker ;)
I still don`t understand why Brandon waste his time discussing here...
FTN: 5k users/20k peers = avg. 4 per user
SCC: 15k users/60k peers = avg. 4 per user
ScT: 19k users/130k peers = avg 6,8 per user
ScT=Win.
sct been up for 3 years, FTN for 2, and SCC for 1 ;)
