Sticky: Do NOT Request Or Offer BitTorrent Invites In This Section *Or Be BANNED*
its only a temp ban for 2 days, which i think is a good idea.
u should ALWAYS read any sticky rules on new forums.
and to answer ur question about how u can get demonoid/filelist invites, u cant. filelist dont do invites, and never have. and demonoids invite system is disabled.

What part of "I agree to the rules" don't you understand?
Reinstate the original wait time (if you want to be nice on the first offense) and ban on the second infraction.
Edit:
I suspect the original rule was put in place to prevent people who only want invites from posting their requests immediately and then moving on. The goal is to build a sense of community, and the rule helps do that by requiring a Noob to participate in the forum before making a request for invites.
If the goal is still worthwhile, and I believe it is, why is it so difficult to inforce the rule? Moreover, if I was the person charged with sending out PMs to the violators this would be a no-brainer.
