Should Acct trades be allowed here?

**Something Else** · 02-25-2008, 03:49 AM

Probably by making friends. There are a lot of people on trackers and forums who, if you make a good impression as a member will help you to reach any other site you may require.
Requesting one on a public forum is not the best way either.
Network with people, help at trackers and forums, be interested in more than getting invites.

how did u get into the higher level trackers? by making requests?

benchez has it 100% right. By making friends. For some sites I guess I did "request them" but that was in private to my mates. For others friends just asked if I would like to join. TBH it gets to the point where you turn down invites because you just have no use for them.

The best way to go is to just be a helpful and good member. If you do that here and on the trackers you are already at people will recognise that you're a good member and doors will open for you. There's no need to trade. Just be yourself and have a laugh with some folks and you'll find there's no tracker you can't get in if that is your wish

ONLY coz account tradeing is useless most of the elite trackers can figure out if any account on thier tracker have been traded or not so u will losse any thing u will offer to get an account in return useless relly tested

and i hope we will not see (Should invites trades be allowed here) pool in the future

Well some could see it as wasting it but if you delete the acct then that opens up a slot for others to join in their rightful place not taking some used acct. I myself never saw the appeal to someone elses name on your acct. My name on most trackers is pariah and I am proud of that fact I have a good name, no cheating no scamming good ratios etc.Very selfish to get and acct just to leech all you can. I am proud of my ratios on those "harder to seed" sites. The acct was given to you as a user a better description than I could ever give is easily put by one of FST's and BCG's finest Stoi:

You go to a pub with a mate, you buy him a drink, he then turns around and gives that drink to a complete stranger, and goes and gets himself a better drink.

im sure you would think, wtf was going on lol

Tracker staff and your inviter want YOU as a member, not some tom dick or harry you have found elsewhere on the net.

If you dont want your account, delete it or just let it die and get pruned.

Awesome explination simple and exact, Thanks Stoi

+1 respect

and no account trading should not be allowed well that is the first step to make this a better place but i doubt this will happen anytime soon.

Well I never saw where you said all fst staff support trading, look it at like this Weather or not I personally support trading or not, I will ALWAYS Support FST and her members I do most of my downloading now through News Groups so trackers cannot threaten me with a ban or anything like that. I started this poll simply to get my finger on the current pulse of what our members wanted and just as before it is split basically down the middle. Whatever my or any other member of staff here hold in their personal feelings we all keep to the rules of FST as a whole and will remain undivided. So don't go gettin all mushy on me just yet, but I appreciate it anyway. I thought of a funny thing just now and I hope it hasn't been said before....

They can take away our invites, but they can never take our freedom!!!

so FST is providing my info to others? Or did I read that wrong?

Hey B whats up been a while. Well I don't think the enemies of FST keep any of us up late at night. As long as I'v been here FST has had so called enemies and guess what FST and our members are still here. Enemies is a strong word we have trackers that do not exactly love what we do here but I have an open line of communication with most all of them and even the crazy ones ( you know who you are) are still pretty cool people.

Now lets get something straight FST does not provide our members info to anyone even when asked nicely or threatened. The only case I ever even heard of was when someone was caught selling invites and I dont even know if thats true or not its just what I had heard.

I got every single one of my high level trackers through friends, shit even that homo Sear ( a good friend of mine) got me into a pretty exclusive place.

First of all, change your attitude on levels. Rarity level doesn't make a good tracker. It all depends on what you are after. If you don't like community, don't go for "High Level", you won't be happy when you get there.

Like Benches said, social networking gets you far. Make friends. Don't whine about not be able to get into some tracker.

Be a good user on any tracker you are on. That way people can see that you won't jeopardize their account if they invite you somewhere.

Partake in discussions even though they won't land you an invite anywhere. There doesn't need to be a hidden agenda.

Be helpful to people that need help on some matter. It makes a good impression that you go out of your way to help others.

Do all of this on a regular basis. It doesn't need much effort and it's fulfilling in itself.

banned acct trades fst

I vote No, account trading sucks need to be stoped

**stitched** · 02-25-2008, 04:15 AM

i think acct trades should not be allowed if and only if ALL the community reps wouldnt mind invite trading....since MOST of the community reps think account trading is as good as invite trading then y account trades shouldnt be allowed....
if there can be a mutual respect between community reps and traders then may be there can be a solution to the so called problem called trading....what most of the community reps dont understand is some users mostly traders chose to trade because they dont want to wait for someone to approve of what they are worthy and what they are not-worthy ofit just would simply imply that you are accepting that your inviter is a better man then you are (the invitee),well not exactly but its a lot complicated then that..not that i have never got a free invite ,its not the same everytime some one gets a free invite....but definatly with higher levels come longer foreplay....
if someone can get an account for free rather then giving back something in return anyone would surely accept the free invite but with free invite comes the feeling of being obligated to the inviter,being greatfull,thankfull,listen to all the crap no matter how boring the inviter is,being friends with the inviter even thou you may not like him ...most importantly trying to please the inviter inturn making a fool of one's self most of the times. its one of those things which is very hard to be put in words. and it is a matter of choice i chose to be a (pro) trader and when some one doesnt accept me and respect me for the way i am then i rebel,and stop reading/following rules which doesnt make sense to me and are mostly.when some one makes a rule there are always some people who follow the rule and who dont follow the rule,banning those who dont follow the rules or giving out their ip will not making things any better ,if traders are dealt the same way invite seller and cheaters are dealt with then its probably time to reconsider they way you think or live with fact that trading is something which cant be stopped ,oh you have tried to stop it but you just cant because its not just me who think these rules dont make sense, traders have been here before me.lets not pretend to be blind shall we.
