    I wonder how many PMs Squizzle is going to get from this thread...

    Would like to see some of the more "interesting" invite requests just for a laugh... I wonder how many have tried the line:
    "I want an invite, now who's dick do I have to suck?" <-- Now that's someone who's really "into" the community :p

    Sharing the love

    Amen to that Stoi.

    Although there are a few exceptions to this, namely for trackers with very specific content, like BCG for games. I could see someone who was into games to enjoy the community there obviously, but since "high-level" trackers are often just scene/user uploads, they have rather generic forums.

    @danio:
    There are numerous forums devoted to bittorrent (just the discussion of) that are just as secure as "high level trackers".

    Edit: Tsk, tsk, I didn't see that this thread was started by Squizzle. I wouldn't have posted if I had.

    Usually the biggest anti traders are those who traded big time before and now completely reconverted became zealots of the new "anti-trade" religion.

    Already knowing the key members of a certain forum, these ass kissing experts make new accounts starting building reputations as anti traders, lovers of the communities etc.

    You can recognize them when they regularly post in trading topics, signaling their presence as anti traders, advising the OP that trading is a big no no and if they want to get access to those heavenly trackers, they better make meaningful posts and/or make friends who maybe later will jump and invite them to those three stars (***) trackers.
    Live long and prosper.

    I don't give a flying fuck about their forums.
    That's because this forum is all you need, and here (FST) is your home forum, others may view it differently and are looking for their cosy home forum. Pity most end up in stupid chit-chat areas posting in rate that ass/av/chick <insert other ghey gheyme>, at least one site has had the sense and foresight to remove it 100%, now to start a campaign to get all sites to remove the crappy posters & childish games from their forums (oh yeh!!). Watch this space

    As to the OP, what you find who say this are the non-English speaking members or those whose first language is not English, and there seems to be a correlation between asking for good sites and using the word community, it's somehow defacto standard these days to include the word community for some reason, but most of them end up in the friggin games section, rather than interacting in the interesting parts of the forums. And a lot end up being disabled for whatever reason, most of them we can guess at.

    But at the end of the day, does it matter why people want somewhere as most only want to eat at the new restaurant to see if they like the menu, there are plenty of places to choose from and not all places will please the connoisseur or please the palette, but some will love what they find and will be total gems and form a good relationships with the owner & the chef and will find a good home to hang their hat on entry.

    Live & let live.
    Yes Sir, I'm Right On It!!

    I'm no trader but I'm not that interested in the community. I DO keep good ratios and behave well but I'm in it for the downloading. I don't have time for large scale chit-chat due to RL constraints.

    That does not mean I don't read the tracker forums on occasion or that I don't comment. But that's not the primary reason we're here, right?


    EDIT: Oh, and yes, that also means I don't give a **** about "levels". Content/speed is all that matters. If there are no kids around it's great too.

    Some trackers have good forums, most don't and are full of prepubescent wannabe's. Threads like "What's you favorite color?" and "Would you do this chick?" don't cut it for me, maybe if I was 12 again, I'd find it interesting and appealing.
    Please do not randomly PM asking for invites as I have none to give out. Have a nice day.

    i have always wanted some tracker with good community with active forum where can i chill out, but as i got more trackers oriented to that "community" thing, i found that those forum are just the same with just the same members who post same things. after some time, i got bored to even read that forum, and anyway, once you just will not have a time to post these bullshits. trackers were, are and always will be for downloading files. for me that is the only thing why i use trackers, i register to tracker because i want to download files which that tracker can offer to me, and not because i heard it has a cool forum. ye, forum is a part of tracker, but i think that browse page is a way more important to everybody.don't you think?

    I think this will start a revolution in request threads. Maybe people will stop bringing up community or start saying that community isn't everything..

    Oddly enough the community users of small trackers are the same at all of them. At first I thought these small places were cool, but then I started to see how they were all sorta similar and basically were just started by some group of friends that wanted to run their own tracker. I guess everyone finds their home, but I dunno if a place with under 10 snatches on popular uploads is really a torrent community for me. Another thing is that most of these community trackers have users who mainly watch xvids and only crave packs of them, which doesn't get me hard tbh. I need my dvds and a nice site to chat on at times when I'm bored at work/school, that's all. Forums have lost there appeal and IRC is replacing that for me.

    I've tried the delacct.php option on a bunch of these sites but most don't work and I just haven't cared enough about opening a slot to pm staff or whatever. Plus I feel bad about the inviter or other members in some situations, because I feel obligated to enjoy the community they love. But idk if that's proper either. Tastes are individual and everyone has to find their community, whatever that might mean to them. I'm rambling, so whatever, peace. Now that I think about it I really should delete some of those accounts and scramble my password here, so I can just chill the fuck out and enjoy the sites I use and that's all.
