    Spam Posting
    • DO NOT post "good luck", "nice giveaway" or similar repeatedly.
    • DO NOT repeatedly spam threads with content-less posts.
    • Members posting spam will receive infractions.
    But I see it all over the invite-section. I agree that BT-mods could be more strict in upholding this rule. Some members have 500+ posts with 400 of them just wishing other members good luck and other nonsense.
    We were wasting hours everyday by giving infractions for every little offense...it was shoveling shit against the tide.

    Now we issue infractions if we see repeat offenders. If you see a member continually doing it, click the report button and let us know. We'll delete the posts and insure it doesn't occur again.

    Really!? Well what member is this now? Also Spam IS allowed over in the lounge so maybe those posts were made there and not in the BT section, right? If you do happen to see a member like this posting in the BT section that we missed then please by all means report them and it will be dealt with. Otherwise all you seem to be doing here is over hyping a situation that is not nearly as bad as it is being made out to be by IMO a crybaby that is guilty of Spam himself AS WE ALL ARE!.

    Any one of you with a few hundrend posts can you honestly say you have NEVER spammed? No you can't because you can check ones post history. Torrenting is not just about getting the data but having a good time and meeting some good people. So quit the bitchin' and have a good time without going overboard with spam.

    Honestly I wish this poll was public and we could all see who voted Yes then we could check their post history and see how many times they themselves have spammed here, god this is such a joke.

    Haha, just checked the thread for the first time after I posted it, nice third option

    And mods can spam as much as they want! It's not like they can be a bad influence when most people are already worst than them
    o hai

    Here at fst, traders are stereotyped for being mean and not giving away invites or accounts to help other people like themselves start on the torrenting ladder.
    I dont think it is wrong to trade if thats the only way people feel like they can get in high level trackers, good luck to em i say.
    I myself dont trade and never will as i find it far easier to request an invite to trackers based on proofs and being a trusted member to fst.

    True people shouldn't spam someone, but I thought FST didn't like trading, and that was the reasons why people were going off on trading posts...

    Also I thought that trading was something frowned upon by all private trackers...

    PEACE

    People are going off on trading posts b/c they don't like trading and they think the poster might actually care about the gibberish they spout off.

    We allow trading. We do not allow spam. Report it if you see it.

    Ok, but does any private tracker allow trading? I always thought that trading was a big no no in the BT community amongst private trackers, and it seems like as a Filesharing community we aren't supporting it very well if we are going against the grain...

    PEACE

    Oh noes, not the dreaded trading debate??

    Believe me, it's been done to death.

    Trading is allowed now, it's going to be allowed in the future and nothing is going to change that view. Just have to deal with it.
    Yes Sir, I'm Right On It!!
