DOGnzb open for registrations

[messy]

I have to agree. I got in dognzb, and it is nothing special.
Almost everything there can be found using public indexers, and the things that can't, are not their own posts anyway.

Dog was open for anyone to register yesterday, but they were only providing free a certain amount of time after which who knows what happens to your account. FIgures

Not True. The people who signed up correctly have 28 days to evaluate it. I'm no "fan" of the Dog, but at least make your posts factual. As usual, existing members got ZERO invites. Don't worry, it will open again and again as long as the Dog can laugh all the way to the bank! Somebody told me that Reddit had to go into "read only mode" yesterday on the Dog invite page due to server overload.

I have been Dog member for about 4+ months..i got 2 invites. I heard last week on IRC chat, members gave out few invites. that doesn't mean you can go there and ask for invite..you would be kicked. Come and hang out, you might get lucky. Also, Nzbs.org never gives invites. what about them? Nzb.su hands out invites. End of the day, i can pick apart every site and point shyt out. The best site is the one that works well for you. I have used a lot of indexers. for me, Dognzb works well with my setup. never had issue..reasonable price at $10 lifetime. unlike others who charge a arm and leg.

LMAO.............I wonder if those Reddit people know what open source newsnab software is. Hopefully , most of the people who were pining for the Dog indexer got in this time.

IF I had the bandwidth (I may have by this time next year) I'd do a 'run' on all these encrypted/for pay sites, posting 'in the clear' all that they have done encrypted and put them all out of gullible user/payers.

The Matrix was a site that the users had to pay for. Everything was member uploaded and there was a great sense of community. I personally belong to an indexer that I have paid for. It provides for member uploading. Members upload, because of the community and they feel comfortable. I don't see anything wrong with members paying for the upkeep of a platform that allows them to once again have the community they felt they had with the Matrix. This is what a lot of us old school missed, having been with the Matrix community for years. I guess it is just another way of looking at things. I don't consider myself gullible, I am glad to have found another place that provides for what I like to do, including chatting with people about all manner of things. The reason the posts are encrypted is so they are not taken down so quickly. A lot of effort goes into posting and cost on the posters behalf. As I recall the Matrix had their own a.b. group and members would post with Matrix on the end of the nzb. I don't know how the newer people would like to see it done, but that was how it was done, when there wasn't so many sites to be fighting over. For me I have always thought it was the community that mattered, as that was how you all knew about stuff and helped each other out. Now all I hear is feature this and feature that. Not that I don't use the features, some of them are great and I don't have the time to be looking on most of the sites, so the very little I have paid means nothing. But at the end of the day, anyone of these sites is only as good as the community, and if it is a community of takers, including those running it, the givers go somewhere else. So no matter what you pay or don't pay you are never going to find the quality unless you find the community. If you find the community you will know, because they are providing for each other. I don't see anything wrong with that, it is how I have always understood it to work. And it works well that way. I don't think it is fair to lump everyone into the same boat, just because there are some indexers out there that are clearly clueless, and in for the money. They are not all like that and there are pockets of communities out there that are very happy and working together, just normal everyday people that mean no harm or bad feelings towards anyone, they are just getting on with it.

You'll probably have better luck there^

Edit: personally I'd just as soon not have (new) posters asking for invites in regular threads, and I'm sure anon already has his hands full without the addition of policing an invite sticky.

The Matrix was a site that the users had to pay for. Everything was member uploaded and there was a great sense of community.

All the pay sites I see that exploded on the scene after a handful of trashy postings (okay, my review, you may like trash) are mostly 'generating' their own encrypted postings, or allowing those who encrypt a 'home' to post their key settings.

Matrix (and Newzbin/Newzbin2) never did this. Those sites that did over the years (and including those of today) are trying to 'monetize' usenet to their own advantage/bank accounts. Doing so means they are trying to create an organized crime syndicate, and eventually they will be dealt with as such by governments. Those who support them (pay them money) will also be swept up in the dragnet, and will make things all the more tough for those who don't, by causing increased tightening of funds exchange (whether paypal, visa, or whatever). I myself, who currently purchases both software and hardware from UK/European sources from the US, has increasingly found that those funds transfers to be hampered by crackdowns that purport to target these criminal enterprises.

These are part of the 'unintended fallout'. As I've said may times before, if these folks had done the minimum to keep their postings from those who were seeking to take them down, they wouldn't have had any problems to begin with. Again, I've given lists and lists of the most obvious offenders here in the past.

'For Pay' sites are organized crime, period, and will be dealt with as such. Don't stand too close, or you may find yourself swept up in that dragnet.

It was factual just lacking detail as I really didn't pay attention to what the grace period was and didn't want to provide false info. I just happened to type in that magical URL and it allowed me to register I was in such a hurry i didn't read anything.

Apparently opened up registration yet again? Weekly occurrence.
