"Anti-Traders, Community Lovers"

[pone44]

That is a good point!

I feel the same way. Thing is, nobody gives anyone a chance anymore because of all the BS.

Ok here is my view:

I do not trade at all. I think that it is wrong and therefore don't do it. I don't make a big deal out of it, because those who do, mostly do it, as you say, to improve their chances of being invited to the tracker they want to get to.

As for the community bit, I think that most of the time it is completely made up and that people want it just to be a member of a high level tracker. However there are some people who genuinely want to be a member of a site because of the community. For example someone made a request for Fsc a while ago, going into detail about why they wanted it due to the cooking forum
/community there. To me this seemed like a real request due to the wanting to be a part of a community. But most of the time it is simply not true, and they just want to be a member of a lvl7+ tracker.

I used to want to be a member of a community, and found what I was looking for in a tracker that is lower down so I think people need to be a bit more realistic, but can't see that happening.

I think that while trading is a bad thing to do, some people are going way over the top with the 'trader hating'. It seems as though if you have traded in the past, some would consider you sub-human.

Yes it is bad and wrong, but not as bad as many would make you believe.

No, No, No.

This is FST, everything has to be black or white - there is no middle-ground.

Does the lords of light control death: No
Does the lords of the Dark control death: No

Death has no masters, he sits on the fence. Waiting, Waiting.
Waiting for those to fall light or dark he has no prefferance, he will claim them for his own.

Too metaphoric/poetic for me

I agree. I don't think I've ever seen FST taken this seriously...

i think getting into a torrent site is like meeting a new gal and wanting get inside her...
all thou everyone know what it feels to be inside once u do it the first time with some gal...still most want to do it with every single gal thats available.....
when some one says u cant get a particular gal because she is high level and her invites are close....it becomes even more precious and necessary....
u gotta have her at any cost some pay for it,some become friends and get inside her....

bottom line is every one wants in .... some try and succeed and put it in their signature some dont...

everyone wants to be exclusive thats y higher the level longer the foreplay....and the lies get more believable...and i guess it helps if u r an anti-trader most would believe anything u say
people lose interest once they get in...or once they are mature enough to know..." its all the same, they all have the same content"


most of the people who want an invite are in their teens and are men,,,,thats y the comparision between a torrent site and women.

i hope what i wrote was readable and someone could understand it, otherwise forgive my grammer and spellings

so the higher level gal you got the higher p**** you got? i definately will have to aim higher than where im currently at then.

btw: its not about the levels.....its about seeing the same people in that particular place .
a::"hey there, werent you in ftwr too?"
b::"yea, wuzzup"
a::"nothen, leeching"
b::"oh wast it your avatar saw over at ftn"
a::"mmmhmm i finally got to see you there too!"
..........

well i got the highest level gal. shes lvl 9 and her content's awesome!

You guys for real or do you say it in the hope that trackers will be more willing to accept your requests for invites etc?

Explain to me the mentality, if you will.

"I want that tracker for the community, it's nothing to do with it being a high level tracker that I want because it's unattainable, honest" is a hell of a cliché these days

Enlighten me peeps

The Irony is How can someone TRULY be part of their community, if there have NOT been in there before?.......
All the Info One has is the Tracker Ranking and rumors. The rarity of the Tracker, makes it even MORE a Curiosity, to secure the Tracker.
Since P2P is mostly about community and it would be a Great "Line" to use to get in.....
If one really wants to be part of a Community, there are Countless Warez Forums and P2P communities to register.



Bottom line, I think is a bunch of B.S.......I think is more important to prove oneself in just one community and hope that reputation can spread, instead of saying , >> " I want to be part of XYZ community......."

After all, the Tracker finds U, Not the other way around.........

FST is a community of sorts.
Unfortunately many don't view it that way and only see it as a means to an end point taken and driven home..

But as I said before ad infinitum although FST is looked down upon in certain circles and perhaps justifiably so I don't believe for a minute that there aren't just as many douches on most trackers as there are here so I suggest the condescension belongs elsewhere.

Bejesus Christ I'm defending these assholes now.

[ukgenius]

Look basically everyone who says that they want a high level tracker for community is lying. There are a few genuine ones, but only a few. Unless someone give a really good reason why they think the community at a certain site is so good, they are lying!!

[IdolEyes787]

As pointed out ,until a person experiences it firsthand no one truly knows what a tracker's community is really like.
So words to the contrary ukgenius you are essentially saying everyone is to some extent is lying.
I can live with that.Need creates action.
Blame the rule makers.
