    To stop giveaways is crazy talk.
    Many people including myself would have nothing if it weren't for a very giving person willing to invite us. Ending giveaways here is like telling porn stars not to have sex in their films because they will get aids like people who give out invites might get scammed or banned. Its enjoyable to both parties the giver knowing they are helping someone and the taker getting to be apart of something they really want. If you feel so strongly about not giving away invites even though you were probably handed an invite when you first started then don't give them. Although there are many who abuse the invites their given which is why this thread has been created but all can't be judged by some.

    Every one try to stop something
    some ppl say stop trading and then the traders attack them
    some ppl asy stop the anti-traders then the anti-traders attack them

    The OP is talking about stopping giveaways for the security of the trackers. He's not asking people to be less kind and stop giving away to take away the possibility from a good guy to enter a tracker. We all know what happened to Oink, cops came in and BANG! Oink died. These are private tracker/communities, they're not intended to be accessed by any guy who wants to. And any guy who wants to enter, posts a ratio proof (fake) and he gets in, and puts in jeopardy the life of the tracker.

    I get your point, but I'm not able to come up with a solution that can replace the giveaways.

    People like you restore my hope in the power of reason. And like I said, I'm not saying anyone should stop giving away tracker invites. It's how most of us started, I'm sure. But I had to prove that I'd be a sincere, valuable member to the first site I joined. I wasn't picked out of a hat. That's the point I'm trying (and apparently failing) to make.

    what the diffrent between tradeing and giveaways ? my point of view both of them against the rules and u wont be never sure u invited the right person i mean that person u just invited him he could be a trader in other forums or he could be cheater so u put ur account under risk i do some giveaways ok i am not against this ofcourse but i see many anti traders just support it and they do not for trades even both of them is almost the same thing !!!!

    without giveaways there won't be flesh blood, which is never healthy for any community in general. not everyone starts out with loads of E friends who can invite them. in fact, no one does. new guys don't have anything to trade with either, so they can only restrict themselves to open signups or public trackers, if giveaways were nonexistent. it's a necessary risk i would think. and the pros outweigh the cons in the long run.

    orfik post history, orfik stfu
    ahahahaha, what about RL, what do you think about ppl giving money to teh poor, should it be stopped too?

    Giving away or not giving away invites is decision which is up to teh person doing it and noone else and there's absolutely no reason we should restrict anything in this area.

    I think that 90% of the people who posted here think that the OP is criticizing giveaways. The word trade has nothing to do with this thread.

    HE IS NOT CONCERNED BY HOW PEOPLE ENTER A TRACKER, HE'S CONCERNED ABOUT TRACKER'S SECURITY.

    Sorry for the caps, hope y'all understood.
