you guys ruined all my fun with all your seriousness
and i understand why the mods edited my signature (pic was too big), but why edit my post?
I hope U will not cry :(

You should try Usenet, it really is better. All the benefits but with faster speeds and no ratio to worry about.Quote:

which old guy?

I like the idea of bt; I am sharing with my peers. Usenet is leeching
The old guy that recommended newsgroups, silly.Quote:

It's not really, in fact it's totally free of it whereas BT is full of it, look at Mulder ffs.Quote:

If nothing is expected in return for downloading then people can't really be "leeching" per se.
what is 'mulder'?Quote:

also I'm def. a noob, and I don't know anyone who uploads to newsgroups. Being a noob, and using bit torrent, I can help my fellow peers by seeding after i've downloaded something. One of the trackers I use doesn't even have a ratio system, so its not a big deal; and the others make it easy to keep a 1:1 ratio (perks for seeding, etc.). Something about saturating my upload link just makes me feel all warm inside.
also, non-isp access to newsgroups costs money, whereas bt is free (I don't know anyone who uses their ISP usenet access)
Yeah there is this whole 'invite-trading' bs you speak of, but i dont take part in it. I got invited to some great places by just asking.
Lastly I think the bit torrent protocol is cooler than the antiquated NNTP stuff.
To each their own.
However I get max download speed pretty much every time I download from Usenet. I also find the stuff I am interested in sooner. I use Usenet as supplied by my ISP so there's no added charge.
I use BT as well and I don't think it's a patch on it but if you prefer BT that's good as well. Different people like different things.
Well... I used to be addicted to BT, but now I see myself as the infraction King.
err...Queen*
That doesnt make much sense. :/
I thought that's how the lounge is supposed to be.Quote:

Not at all.
You're gonna need all the bandwith you can get to support that bt addiction.
If you converted to usenet on the other hand.... :whistling
I don't even know what it means.Quote:
