As there has been some discussion about trading bt invites I thought it would be interesting to see what everyone thinks.
i dont care what you do. I choose not to trade because I'm part of 2 great torrent communities and I'm not looking to getting involved in anymore.
not trade... why ?
cuz invites meant to gaved free..
Kinda confused between No traders lick balls & Couldn't give a sh%$, but I pick no traders since I'm not stupid enough to do that :P
@ cmon:
sorry No traders lick balls is for people against trading.
While don't give a shit is kind of self expalnitory...as In you don't care either way
I voted "Traders lick balls"
Yes trading rocks
well,if my friends could help me to get into acertain tracker that may interest me then it would be good and if they need assistance that i can afford i will be very happy to do so
while if neither me or my friends can't get into this or that tracker and i see someone whose interested in something i have while he has something that i need then we would be benefiting eachother and everybody satisfied so why not to trade then
Well, I don't like traders as well, is that enough?Quote:

I make deals with my trusted friends who trade and I also give away invites to my trusted friends who don't trade at all.
:yup:Quote:

You make a good point and that's prety much how I feel to be honest. I don't have a problem with trading as a way to get somthing your going to use (though I've never done it) but I do have some concerns about people who trade just for the sake of it. making it into a game/addiction. I don't think it's healthy for the people involved, the trackers or the wider BitTorrent community.Quote:

We should be trying to make places like Deamonid and TL better. Shit those are the places that save me when I'm in tight spot. They're like the Oink of Everything.
Patriot it is different when you help someone out and then he says. Do you need anything? And you say. Yes I'm looking for such tracker. Then he helps you out.
However when people say. Have the Rabit send offers. Or have tracker x. Only need level 7+. That's pretty lame. That's pure convenience trading.
well said that's my point exactly :) though I'd like to ad it's not just conveience trading the thrill of the deal also seems to be an addiction for many.Quote:

I believe that the feeling of giving away an invite to a person that deserves it is really amazing, as well as the feeling when you get a free invite by someone who really believed in you and trusted you.
Compare these feelings with the feeling you might get after a successful trade or even after been scammed.
@znik:
Thought you'd drop by...:) as I know you have stong feelings about this issue.
ps. luv the anti-traders giveaway here's hoping that thread stays active.
Invite swapping is OK in my book...
'Hey, I got an xxx invite. I'll swap it with your yyy invite.'
Invite trading is NOT OK in my book...
'Hey, I got an xxx invite. I'll trade it for your yyy + 50TB buffer + zzz + aaa + bbb, because my xxx is rare.'
Inbetween, It's ok to trade sometimes
You speak the truth brotha!Quote:
