Good job guys.
Thanks for the heads up ;)
more and more trackers open their doors to members, i am actually glad for those who has this chance to apply. Good luck to you all.
great news
hope i can join the great tracker
This is good. Of course someone will disagree and say that GFT is letting in potentially troublesome users, but it's not like those won't be banned in an instant.
What I'm hoping is that a lot of people who are going to be active are let in. Uploaders, active forum posters, etc.
These applications are never accepted easily. So only good members will come in imo.
Traders would call these level jumpers, I guess, lol.
is gft still down for anyone else?
And how will they identify traders?plus being a trader i dont think makes you bad member.Quote:

It probably depends on what you can offer to the site, i don't think they will try to eliminate traders or such, it is quite nonsense, and being a staff, they probably know that being a trader once a cheater or account sharer doesn't make you bad at all... If you have access to certain rare dvds, rare tv-shows, movies et cetera with a nice upload speed, then you are highly in. At least my opinion.Quote:

That would be freaking fun, i mean seeing my posts on here, i would probably have fun at the meeting. if i didn't know that i would spoil the opportunity for others, i would definitely go to irc. I wonder whether it would be smt like thisQuote:

Dear Bilkenter,
Though your activity on fst is appreciated, yet you are a bad bad user, you are known not to care about community or the tracker, moreover, you keep hitting another staff of some tracker called Something Else with a thick stick,we want passionate users with something to offer to our community and some respect for the work we are doing. This is why
we cannot enroll you into our tracker, thanks for your time though.
i mean it really would rock probably a lot better than what i wrote, i wish i didn't know that others will be affected by my gesture xD
no spam intended, just keeping the topic alive for others.
This will be on the GFT iRC? :( Or in another link?
That was a possible conversation with staff made by me of course. :) Based on my torrent history, :P i don't think they would welcome bilkenter xD not that i care really :) but truth :lol:Quote:

Invites: 09/05/2009 12:00 EST aka 17:00 GMT
I knew my respnse would provoke this.
Better wait for a GFT's staffer's reply, huh?
Bring on the "level jumpers". :lol:Quote:

I don't think the collectors will be completely eliminated from the "pool" though.
Great site GFT, love the no-ratio system ;)
The invitations will be on irc, search on FN to see what link it is O:)
I will post the link when applications have been opened, as there is no point in joining now (in fact, it may disqualify you for reasons you will see later)Quote:

Thanks for letting me know.
Did FTN ever did such a thing ?
I wonder if i should join this site since i have the other good ones. What do you think?

ah ok.. thanks i'll give it a go later
Here is something that someone said a few weeks ago on a certain tracker forum:
Quote:
the problem with invites is like what many have pointed out before.some people will always end up abusing them be it by selling or trading.no wonder you see some trackers these days barely give invites and if they do they don't give them for 'free' if you understand what i mean.perhaps marginally but i believe its working.you won't find an invite to pedros or sct or scc or OMG! FtN and in our case HDbits that easily because people have to be either in very high standing with the tracker(almost staff) or part with some money in appreciation for the tracker so as to obtain invites or no invites at all. I hate to say this but once hdbits reverts their decision and start giving invites again to anyone who can obtain a seedbox and seed the obvious will happen,the same problem that they have so far successfully managed to control will come back to haunt them.the only solution to getting rid of these sellers and traders is either for the tracker to not care about its level and make access easily available through things like regular staff IRC giveaways(its the in thing atm i believe) and reduce value for traders or care about its level and make it impossible to gain access by making invites unavailable or having these invites exclusive to high standing donors. besides most people donate because they care and wont want to jeopardise the tracker and perhaps to counter the notion of ''that would be like selling the invites''.the tracker can have it such that your donations dont neccessarily warrant an invite,sometimes u get sometimes u dont.As much as we would want to think otherwise,the honest truth is that the bad users are what makes most of us and its a pity.
How is this tracker about seeders/snatched torrents and speed?
pretty much what i said earlier.Quote:

Good job talking about the invite trading guys, they closed the offer BECAUSE of your talk here.
Idiots... I really ought to have posted this elsewhere, this community clearly can't handle it. You can be sure that if it ever opens up again, it won't get posted here first.
i lost interest when someone mention there was an axxo pack on it.
Search results for "axxo"Quote:

If they are dumb enough to think that talking about invite trading would actually urge people to do such a thing, then they shall think again. Just like talking about homosexuality doesnt actually encourage homosexuality, it is the same here.AS far as i understood, he only meant that no matter what they do, people might hide themselves being a trader, this is the case on all trackers especially the high lvl trackers. He only meant to warn staff of such outcomes, at least the way i see it. Seriously, no matter where they open it, the word will leak out, i thought this was a quite a move and i was happy for those who actually was looking after it.I personally couldnt care less even if ftn was open for sign ups. Anyway never mind, yet let me tell you what i think, posting that they will recruit good members then taking it all back, it is pretty childish, either do it or dont do it. Gosh seriously annoying, sorry pals i am really sorry for most of you who actually wanted to get there.Quote:

Fst wont be closing..lol
i am sure.
but they are saying that they will not open till fst closes.that means they are considering all members at fst as traders...too bad.
so no invites in future as well because it will be impossible that fst closes.
