BitMeTV are very strict about hit & runners & cheaters. If you cheat, the guy who gave you the invitation is penalised and your downloads treated as his, giving him a worse ratio. 3 strikes and he's out.Quote:

what a joke, u guys are actually lining for private trackers when there is open usenet u can leech all u want

You're the dummy if you don't know that private trackers have lots of files that don't make it to usenet. :no2:Quote:

ya ya that's wut u say for all the stuff out there, soulseek, private trackers, emule or whatnot, fact is, it's not accessible to anybody who wants the files, and that is not the spirit of p2p, my nigger.Quote:

u want to talk about content? usenet pwns ur little private tracker
Where do you think the X-Files flood came from in a.b.multimedia? Yup, BT private tracker.Quote:

I didn't want to get involved in this little argument, but are you honestly saying BT gets files from usenet and irc? Because that is absolutely not true. The best private trackers get the files straight from the scene, at worst a few hours after they are released, and at best a few minutes after. So in reality most private BT trackers feed off the scene, and Usenet and IRC feed of the private BT trackers. Because the majority of the people with access to the new stuff don't want it to get out.
I mean I'm sure Usenet is great, but don't talk about BT feeding off of Usenet. And some people don't want to pay for their stuff and be limited to whatever is on Usenet.
not scene releases, private caps by BT users.Quote:

"Because the majority of the people with access to the new stuff don't want it to get out."
explain the logic in that, why don't people want to get it out?
of course they want to get it out to as many people as possible. And the fastest way to do that is either by uploading it to usenet (since downloading it is a lot faster than bt), or the irc channels for the users to be put on trackers
release groups compete to get their releases out faster, so it doesn't make any sense if they "don't want to get it out".
The scene hates p2p. The scene releases for the scene itself, they don't want other people getting their hands on it because it can compromise the security of the entire scene it self.

This isn't just torrent uploaders though. This is everyone in the scene who uploads the files somewhere else.Quote:

Releases always travel from fast to slow sources. it's risky for release groups to put out files on servers that can be tracked, such as a bt tracker or xdcc feed. On the contrary, usenet gave them a mean of anonymity.
have u read the nfo's on newzbin lately? release grps telling newzbin to fuck off because they charge people money to download nzbs? they've risked a great deal to put out stuff on usenet and they are pissed newzbin is benefiting from it.
They have private FTP dumps. For use only by them. If they wanted you to have the files they would make a much bigger effort. Basically, all p2p users steal from the scene because the scene works by everyone working together. You get access to it by being able to offer something in return. On p2p all you have to do is download something. You aren't forced to contribute anything to the scene, you just take what you want. That's why the scene hates p2p.Quote:

the entire point of p2p is unconditional sharing, if u can't follow the p2p code, u can go to hell.
Ya, sure they are pissed, but do i care?
usenet still pwns
Yeah that's the point they steal from other people, but only want it to themselves. If it worked it would be perfect. An underground ring where everyone contributes. That's the problem when people put their stuff elsewhere.
There is a difference between what the scene does and p2p. They don't follow the same code.
And it doesn't matter that you don't care does it? Was that the point of this? Was this thread ever even about usenet? Did anyone say a thing about usenet before you came in here? I don't think so. I'm pretty sure this thread is about a bit torrent tracker. Actually this entire forum is about bit torrent. Oh yeah that's right! So why don't you post about how great usenet is in the newsgroups forum? Sound like a plan?
And seriously, you don't need to say 'u', 'ya', 'pwns'. There are actual words that you could use instead.
As far as talking about how great usenet is on bt forum? I don't think i was talking about usenet entirely. There was a discussion about where the releases start out, i was merely following that discussion. If u can't tolerate my choice of words, u can kiss my assQuote:

The maturity of some people in this forum is astounding. Seriously I doubt people would want to hear the opinion of an infant.Quote:

It doesn't matter where we get our material from, we're all petty thieves in the end.
I'll bet you got my membership, Joe. I got kicked off because I joined without knowing I'd need to port forward, and when I tried to our router got messed up, and then it turned out our cable modem was out and we had been using our neighbor's through the router without knowing it! It took too long to get it fixed so they kicked me off for having a negative ratio. So enjoy it!! LOLQuote:

OT: Now that you mentioned it, is it just BitMe that implements this kind of penalty or do other private trackers do so as well?Quote:

BitMeTV invites are not given out lightly.

Not every one wants to dish out money every month for usenet (or arent old enough). Dumbfuck.Quote:

That is the same for the better (not necesarrily better) sites like ScT, BitMe, BitMeTV, etc. Just be careful with who you invite because they always lead right back to you. You don't want to risk getting in trouble because of the actions of someone else.Quote:

Establish yourself by getting a good ratio, with a substantial amount uploaded or downloaded (power user is always nice). Once you get that first site, it becomes much easier for you. Everyone has to start somewhere.
Thanks!
GOOD SITESQuote:

I just checked and was able to sign up not more than 5 minutes ago. Just FYI.
Edit: Wow, that ended just as quick as it started. It appears to be closed once more.
I hadn't got this chance
hoping to repeat as soon as possible.
