Seriously...
For me, FTN is the best overall tracker there is - great content and staff and the best pretimes and speed. Also, security is the most important thing... And about FTN's browsing speed - adults understand it... kids hate it.
Off Topic: SCT is another great tracker - but what I don't like about it is its Pay2Leech system - which is a cash cow, since it's very hard to seed in their tracker (unless you have a seedbox).
That makes sence. Only 5000 users or so. That's why FTN has never been a tracker that I really want so bad. I don't like trackers where is so damn hard to seed. I mean Oink can be a bitch but at least you can upload your own stuff and also the ratio requierements are the best of any tracker. So just seed and you don't have to worry about getting that 1:1 ratio. I love Oinkw00t, from my expierience(and i do have some) in FTN its harder to seed than in SCT
Let me clarify what Patriot just said.
I was demoted and disabled for these reasons:
A: I did not actively open up shop and hand out invites to every person on this forum. (I was never given the community rep rulebook which must clearly state you're required to do so). I propose Community Rep be changed to Designated Invite Issuer to clarify it's use.
B: Apparently I was not allowed to disable users who had more than one account on my tracker, were trading full accounts (while also having another), and for cheating. Whoops
C: I'm close friends with someone FST staff do not like. Guilty by association.
After countless efforts last night to get an answer for the actions issued against me (I otherwise never would have been given an explanation, which I don't find respectful to say the least) I finally found out.
Case closed! I'll talk to skizo about it later.
edit: oh btw, I did issue some invites "through PM" to a few rather interesting users who I felt deemed worthy. Mainly they had good personalities, which is really what makes FTN's community so awesome.

I feel I must interject here before members get the wrong idea.
Please don't muddy the water, Brandon.
A: Every FST member that was here when Community Reps were first introduced will be able to count on the fingers of one foot those who have since needed to divvy out invites to retain Community Rep status. CRs are not required to do so. That is not why the CR member group was introduced.
B: You can do whatever you like on your site and although I don't know the exact reason for you being DPed, boasting about disabling accounts didn't help matters. We are concerned with how CRs use the status here - IP harvesting is a no-no, for instance. FST doesn't want cheaters in the BT community (we will DP any that we discover here) and CR help in discovering them is most welcome.
I don't know the full facts of C but that's almost the flimsiest excuse I've heard. I doubt it's the case.
Talk to Skizo, RealitY too, and iron out any rough spots you can see between you.
