A disclaimer

@artemis keep taking your crazy pills, i'm sure your brain will receive some great ideas
I'll end here as this has nothing to do with Idol's thread. Srry for the off.

My view point of the subject:

I'm on the fence about this. I do agree that these reviews can lead to the over hyping of some trackers, but FST was built on freedom to share information about all types of filesharing and sites. To censor information because a site wants you to, why not go all the way and get rid of the trading seciton as well? Trackers dont want that here, and it also leads to many 'sour grapes' as well, dont you think?

Take the good with the bad IMO, leave things as they are.

I was simply pointing out that if you start censoring, where do you draw the line? If you start bending to trackers wishes where do you draw that line?
Yes, it was an absurd suggestion, and was meant to be taken as sarcasm, but I guess you missed that...

And for those who haven't noticed, the WTAW was "merged" with the WTO, leaving the infamous rarity level as just one more option users will consider when looking for a site to join.
Hopefully, if you are new to bt, you will probably go to specific trackers with high "contents" ranking. That's what the logic tells us.
In the mid long term it may produce results. If not, at least there was an attempt to skew members to choose which places they would consider useful to join based on those who do their best to excel in contents, and not rarity.
Having a WTO thread with 4 or 5 trackers there wouldn't probably help those stay off the radar either, would it? The more present there, the more diluted seeking for some sought after trackers will be. There's no point hiding stuff you can find with any google search. What's the point? Please the staff ? Save our asses? There's nothing secret enough on bt.

Leading to ca_aok's:

But then people would realize that the best trackers are actually places like Torrents.ru and the traders would go out of business

OK the sarcasm is starting to bore me, but cinephilia if you want people to take you seriously then making up words doesn't help......

.....ratiocinating/caviling

If either of these is in the dictionary please point them out.

Do you really feel it is necessary to stoop down to nitpicking on other peoples grammar in order to counteract their arguments? Is that what people on mature and exclusive forums do?

Like I said personal ethos.If someone politely requests that I don't specifically do something and it doesn't hurt anyone not to do it then personally I would think myself a total jerk if I didn't comply .

Maybe I'm not looking at the bigger picture, maybe I'm a naive idiot but that's how I chose to live my life or rather the minuscule the part of my life that I have any control over.

Idol rocks BTW.

Literally . After a day of dealing with the average member here I sit in a dark corner and rock back and forth .

@hagckz0r I assure you I am the last person that you ever need to apologize to for being off topic.

All words are made up ,the only difference that some have been in use longer than others. Undercomprehend.?

Perhaps policies regarding the posting of reviews are out of our control, but I believe things like that are what help fuel view counts . And if that's the case, there's not much we can do about it unfortunately.

Rart, that isn't grammar, those are made up words, I tried to say it as pleasantly as humanly possible, and in no way did I use it to couneract his argument ? And where did the mature and exclusive forums come from ? Is that you showing your own prejudices ?
Simply put, made up words detract from the overall statement.

I think your right Maximus.

So lets say this site did take the polices of politely taking requests from trackers not to have reviews of their site here. What if all the decent trackers asked politely to take their reviews off what would happen then? Would u take them off?

End of the day lets face it the majority of the visitors of this site just come to troll for invites and use the reviews and wtaw thread to see what they want to get, and without these things the visitors of this site would fall pretty much altogether.

So end of the day i couldnt see management accepting this, making this discussion pretty much redundant.

No that would be irrelevant, , purportless or useless
Redundant would be me saying that your post sucks goat wiener.
