I find it ironic that a tracker named ChristianTorrents is invite only. Does anyone know what I'm getting at? Do I not know what kind of files ChristianTorrents really has or the meaning or integrity behind the tracker?

It is a religious tracker. Just because it is christian, doesn't mean they're supposed to be perfect. They think of security too.
besides it s very medicore tracker.
very cool.
i found some good stuff on there. lots of exclusive content. and im atheist
Its a pretty good site for christian files. I never had any issues with it.
then, what you're doing there ? :lol:Quote:

They must keep the society there quality like any other self-respecting tracker and invites make that happen
Yeah, I don't think it's ironic at all. There's nothing "unChristian" about invites or whatever. And there are open registrations from time to time.
And it's an excellent tracker (if you're looking for Christian stuff). A LOT of exclusive stuff and if you make a request that's not really really out there you'll probably get it and fast.
I think there's a lot of meaning and integrity. Invites help keep it that way actually.. if anybody could join there'd be no accountability.
(no, I'm not staff.. just a faithful member :P)
I agree that the name ChristianTorrents is ironic but for a different reason. Most of the stuff shared through bittorrent is breaking copyright laws, and therefore illegal.
I don't know for sure what is being shared there but I find it funny that a bunch of churchgoers share invites to go "steal" religious content.
I also find it funny that local Police, FBI agents, MPAA workers, RIAA workers and even government officials can be found downloading off of torrents as well. Funny you mention about the christians. The very people who say its wrong are doing it as well. It says in the Bible to share with your brothers ;)Quote:

It's not stealing. Its copyright infringement at worst.
There's no "Thou shall not download music" commandment :)
Besides, I actually do buy the music I like. I download it, listen to it, and if I like it and see the CD at a good price I buy it. I've bought more Cds since I've started torrenting than my entire CD collection before.
Exactly. The same for me.Quote:

Not all that good an idea to post your email address in the forums. Anyone could see this and then know who invited you with a simple search on their site.Quote:

Now that's just silly.Quote:

It's not stealing in the Biblical sense, and it helps spread the Word. Similar to smuggling Bibles in countries where religion is banned. Some quotes from CT's forum regarding this:Quote:

(c) Stealing is by biblical (and legal) definition to take physical property from someone, so that the rightful owner loses his physical property. Breaking copyright laws is therefore not stealing; not by biblical, technical or legal definition. To say that the seventh commandment (yes, it is the seventh) includes copyright, that is to take the commandment right out of its context.

Second, unauthorized duplication does not automatically make anyone lose money. It is just what it is: unauthorized duplication. Nothing more, nothing less. If someone takes a picture of my garden, that does not make me lose money; I would not have gotten paid if the picture was not taken, so I suffer no loss.

I agree with you so I edited my message and removed my email.
