Should BT sites block entire Regions?

[Daniel]

Well, spark, banning a whole country is the easiest and fastest option. If you do it manually, you'll never see the end of it with too many cheaters following the already disabled ones. If you do it the oink way, you will encounter a certain amount of people who were disabled by no mistake of their own. I'm convinced that a 'smart system' like theirs works, but it's does make some mistakes - some trackers can afford that and oink is certainly large enough

pretend you are tracker staff.

-you get 100 users from country xyz every month
-85% cheat or leech their ass off

now you have to ban 85 single users. it's a timewasting process.

ban the whole country and you save time and work. for the benefit of the good users.

of course it's hard for the 25 good users of this country, but what are you gonna do?

still wrong, now days you don't need to 85 users all is automatic.

the first and most important rule of a cheater is: never ever admit that you cheated.

most of those 85 users will complain, whine and say they didn't do nothing after they've been banned.

that involves a lot of work and good nerves.

trackers don't ban countries for no reason. why would they?

No offense... I think you are acting a bit hyperactive today, but you have come up with such interesting topics. Good job...

[Dylster]

absolutely not, it's ridiculous to label a whole country as cheaters and these trackers are the closest thing we have to self-governing communities in the world no geographical region should be excluded we should be priding ourselves on the fact that we are part of something that does not care about borders

I can live with OiNK mistakes OiNK has the best rules I've ever seen, best script I've ever heard about...and they'll never ban a whole country, simply the do not need to...

smart system is the solution, not a massive punishment

That's what most people will say until their own account was disabled for reasons unknown But like you said, oink has probably the best scripted way to recognize cheaters and that's a good thing.

i agree with you.

but unfortunately bittorrent sites are not part of the unesco
