Exigo IRC support channel
Hi. I am experiencing some trouble recovering my password. I get the "confirmation sent"-message, but I don't receive it strangely enough. Haven't logged on for quite some time so I guess it might have something to do with that. So is there anyone who can help me get to their support channel? It seems they've changed it?
-
Re: "E" IRC support channel
It's either #lossless.support or #lossless-support on irc.p2p-network.net.
-
Re: "E" IRC support channel
Actually neither of them. I guess they don't have a support channel anymore? If I remember correctly the previous was something like #e****.accounts. But it seems like that one also is dead.
Any other tips?
-
Re: "E" IRC support channel
Exigo, this must be an exigo thread. Anyone asking for exigo support seems to hit a dead end with finding a support channel, the recommendations have always had "lossless" in the channel name. It would appear that lossless doesn't mean it can't be lost.
It might help if you just said something like "Exigo support channel, can an exigo member look around and find it for me?"

Re: "E" IRC support channel
Well, since I don't use the forums on a daily basis I was not quite sure about the "name-rule" concerning some sites. As far I know it was not allowed to mention the full name, so I just played it safe. But I guess that has changed since last time around. Don't see why you have to be a jerk about it though. You're not being very helpful.
And I take it that the majority of the members of the site are familiar with all the different nicknames for it.

Re: "E" IRC support channel
Exigo IRC is hosted on the p2p network channels #lossless & #exigo.news.
key: paininmyass

Re: "E" IRC support channel
You realize the reason that's the IRC key is because morons like yourself keep leaking it to the public, right?

So it wasn't an idle comment on my part and you do really resemble my member after all.:mellow:
Btw besides the inherent coolness of being a wank do you ever stop for a moment and ask yourself why you waste so much time on creating dupe accounts on silly bt trackers?
I'm guessing and it's just a guess mind you , that your Uncle Ahmed molested you as a child and faced with a lifetime of shame you saw as your only recourse to strike back at the world by behaving like a pea- brained prick.
Not that I see the logic in that particular course of action.:mellow:

I was going to ask why leak the irc pass as that's such a little bitch thing to do. But it appears that you are indeed a little bitch so I decided not to.

Do I really come off as a jerk? I don't really concern myself with the rules of sites I'm not a member of, and I have a tendency to show my negative bias to those following trackers' rules on other sites.
I was the first to name their only channel, that should count for something
@TTS you probably could have just PMed him the key, but I'm actually on your side for this issue, even though you're a tool.

Re: "E" IRC support channel
I had already PM'd him instructions on how to proceed without needing to post the irckey on FST.

Instead of him coming back to report his issue had been resolved, he came back to call me a jerk. I guess that deserves a round of applause.

He's cool though so he can act as ignorant as he likes, jerk.

Being that high school is an artifact of our past, I didn't know being cool came with exceptions.

In fairness to once-molested, pee-brained pricks everywhere, most seem to act far more respectably, and with more intelligence than TTS. Although there is that 1%...

Yeah, you kinda do. I guess that says a lot about you, that second sentence. And it didn't occur to you that maybe I hadn't yet received the information before posting my reply? Not implying I hadn't. Just saying.
What? No you weren't.

So creating dupe accounts on BT Trackers and then 'leaking' irckeys that the vast majority of users couldn't give 2 shits about is your idea of fun??
You must be a right laugh-a-minute, life-and-soul-of-the-party kinda guy :)
Erm... you DO know what a party is right? (Or maybe you're just a complete bell end...)

Re: "E" IRC support channel
Am I the only one amused by what TTS is doing? Face it, every tracker has its fucked up members. Most of them just hide, and most probably will take the privacy thing too seriously. He, on the other hand, openly admits what he is and isn't pretentious or conceited about it at all.
Maybe I'm just unfamiliar with the site in question, but in my experience, of the sites I'm on, very few warrant the respect that's requested when privatizing the information is concerned (actually, only one site comes to mind). That doesn't even attend to the fact that the system he's screwing over, is in turn screwing over the OP.
Don't get the back end of this: What he's doing is definitely wrong from a rule-breaking perspective. He'll eventually be caught. And if it wasn't him, it would've been some other dullard or some well-meaning member on some other forum.

So this should just be welcomed, unchecked by the members of the community? How about if it was the "one" site of yours you find so "deserving"?
This sort of attitude is central to why there are so many fuckwits turning would-be-enjoyable sites into crap. A site is often only as good as its members.

I didn't say that it was right or should go unchecked. I said the opposite. I just said it was amusing and refreshingly honest. I'd take one of TTS over ten of bijoy who cheats and denies it. That's all I was saying. Also I was talking about the inevitability of a privacy leak. At least this way we know who it is, why, and the possible damage that could have been done.
Oh and fuck that shit to your second statement. I love the protocol and what it provides as much as the next guy or as much as you. It's the staff that can't realize they're in a serving (not leading) position - and yes, they are. You don't staff a site for leetness without failing. You staff for the unconditional giving back and service you feel the community is owed. It's the members that don't realize that all they're entitled to is the data. Not even the access. All you want is the files, so bugger off if you can get it elsewhere and stop bugging certain sites. And it's the god-damned belief that people go around touting what we're doing as "right". You're stealing information from a hive of thieves. Get off your bloody high horse and acknowledge that scumbags will lash out when you invite them in. Bittorrent is ruined by all the preconceived notion garbage that members go around with. You want to enjoy bittorrent? Set your expectations straight. This isn't the ideal world that the uTorrent devs keep coding for.
"A site is only as good as its members." Hogwash.
EDIT: As for the "what if was the one site" statement: Make no mistake. I expect the site to be publicized eventually, to the utter dismay of its owner and community (it's not even a tracker, but an underground design forum - I think I've spoken about it before on FST, actually). But the reason I said it "deserved"/"earned" its privacy is simply because of its nature and reason for being. An IRC help channel deserves no privacy by virtue of its nature too. Actually, on the offense of the latter, it probably detracts members from looking for help by being locked down. Case in point: the OP.

I too have always found it odd, that a help feature like an irc help channel has to have an access key. Lockdown the main channel yes if you wish, that is where most of the talk is going to be anyway but locking the help channel ? Most users find irc difficult anyway, it is a protocol that is not that intuitive for new users, so to throw up an extra roadblock for users that need help is really kind of silly ? The main chan would only be for idling anyway until a staff member can help the member and then the conversation is handled in a private chat, so why the secrecy ?

Precisely. I imagine with a site like Exigo and level whores it would also open the door to people asking for invites, but dealing with them is a z-line away, and the chances of helping a member increase dramatically.

You've seen a majority of the userbase here on FST, right? That means we are potentially posting on the worst site on the internet (to our apparent knowledge).
I personally feel it's the direction the admins and staff that set the tone and success for the site, and how cooperative they are with user desires (thus increasing likelihood of giving back). That of course still needs to be layered onto some point of its existence.

If it's reason is to be leetist cunts then it's succeeding admirably otherwise please elaborate on this "deserve/earned" bs talk.
If it's because lives are at stake, fine. If it's because it's "an underground design forum" then la de fucking da.

I think I wrote this on FST before when addressing the evolution of the torrenting community, but let me re-address the issue.
It started a few years ago with the BAPE remixing scene. If you have no idea what that is, look it up. Anyway, some of the major BAPE designers flooded the internet when DeviantArt, Flickr so on and so forth came out. With that their competitors came along to steal their ideas, and with those stolen ideas, they also started replicating graphic artist work from the internets. This not only annoyed people on DeviantArt, who wanted to sell their work, to no ends, but also opened them up to physical world litigious actions from people offended, annoyed or were culturally apathetic by or to their work. So, along with a few top artists, a few coders opened up private subsets of the DeviantArt community and invited contributing people to the new fora.
That's it. It's not about elitism. It's about sharing, and controlling the material you create, and that's simply why I don't publicize their information beyond what any of the other members do. By nature and reason of being, they do require the privacy.

You kind of lost me at the point of it all. To me it sounds like they formed a secret club, no girls allowed cause girls are stupid. It may seem a flippant remark, but I'm alluding to a more fundamental issue.

I'm not one of the people who sold their work and were being short-changed by those blasted asians (is the sarcasm shining through now?), nor was I part of those harassed to no end for their work (this I actually feel bad for).
I just enjoyed these people's work and inspirational value, and joined the forum since they collaborated on a harmonic hiatus from public releases. I can't empathize with their reasons, but I respect them, and the reasons that got them there.
As for the membership, it's not a walled garden, by any chance. Every member can recommend a friend (or ten) for invitation. It's simply a safety layer to weed out the problem, not much unlike the original idealistic values for starting the first public trackers.

I think you meant to say first private tracker. And yes, I was under the impression that it was a walled garden. I would carry on, but surely my freedom to post what I want is slowly being chipped away, as I'm getting countless reports for my posts.

So they want to put things on the internet but keep it private like.
Good thinking.
Btw an artist lives to share his/her particular vision and gift and not to wall it away to better profit from it.
I think you may have erroneously joined an underground banking society.:mellow:
Anyway to further annoy I would suggest that this is the equivalent of getting teased at recess and so deciding that you don't wish to play anymore.
Higher stakes maybe but same principle.
No amend that, I think that there aren't enough secret places so that people who can rationalize such stupidity can all quietly fuck off and leave me alone.

Anyone who's a member there and (somewhat) active knows who to message if they need help with this sort of stuff. If they were to have a public help channel, people would just join and ask for invites.

They can join and ask for invites, but are politely told to leave since it is a help channel for those who are already members of the site. I know this because I have helped out on support channels in the past.Also the subject line on the irc channel usually explains clearly that it is a help channel for members and invite requests will not be accepted.
@ca_aok I was under the impression that the channel being discussed was a help channel not the main channel and this was clearly reflected in my post. I have never been a member of Exigo so don't have a clue about their irc chans.
