Do you think FST should share IP's of Scammers/Cheaters/Sellers?

[ben99]

I said yes, I think FST should do whatever it can to help trackers.

[Skiz]

It wouldn't be any trouble at all to make it FST without cinephilia.

This is the second such post I've found you making. If you want to continue trolling the board, you'll be put on moderation or given the proverbial boot. You've been given enough chances - clean it up.

Look at your reaction... my post was sarcastic (maybe i should have put some smileys for you to understand ?) but you feel offended as always.
Seriously, do you realise how much it's fascist to threaten a member for the only reason that he said something you don't like ? Did i broke the rules in any way ? what the heck are you calling "trolling" ? If my post is considered as trolling, i guess 50% of fst members should get an infraction.

Did you already heard about freedom of speech and expression ?

I wasn't offended. Not at all. Those who have been around a while will tell you that I don't get mad or angered about anything.

That being said, your post could have been jocular or legitimate, I don't know. Though to be quite frank, given your past posting trends I would tend to lean towards the comment not being a joke. In any which case, you had to expect a reaction, and you got one; a mild one. Lighten up.

As for the freedom of speech comment, that you do not have. This is not a democratic society. This is an Internet forum with rules and limitations regarding what you are allowed to type and post. If you want to discuss it further, that's fine. I welcome the rough n tumble, but let's keep it to a PM so as not to draw this any further off course.

As much as I hate scammers/traders etc I must say that I completely DIASGREE with the fact that FST should share ips with trackers.. Reasons:

1) Staff of FST can abuse the power (I am not accusing anyone just making a point)

2) It's a invasion of privacy (People can look up your ip and find out your details, facebook profiles etc) And if they are really pissed off they can post the personal info online).. Maybe traders etc deserve that but still if it is proven that a particular person is not really a scammer and was wrongly accused then it will be very bad for him

3) It will probably start some hatred against FST. I mean some people will always claim they were wrongly accused, FST hates me so they shared ip etc.. All this means bad publicity for FST..

4) It will make things too complicated for FST... looking up ips, sending them to trackers, verifying the facts, facing some oppostion from those guyz etc etc.. (stupid point I guess)

5) Why should FST care about traders etc... As some people said FST is supposed to be a forum where members can chat and discuss about stuff. They should NOT become teh BT police

Now here are some of my suggestions...

1) Maybe delete the trading section. Coz that's where most of the scams etc happen

2) Make FST a more protected forum by making it invite only etc.. Coz the scammers just make new accounts and come here again to do the same stuff

3) If you can't delete the trading section. Maybe enforce the rules more strictly. Like madatory use of middleman etc!

BTW I hate MPAA and RIAAA. I don't want to see FST become them..

Cheers

Why don't we just settle this old school, trace the ip to where they live, and i will volunteer my time to get on a plane and take care of this offender personally.
Of course FST or the tracker would have to reimburse my travel expenses.

I do agree with that, but btw can you search an ip on face book? tho i don't use it, just don't think you can..

[manbearpig]

I mean I know you can trace the location of the user with the help of ip.. after that finding facebook etc profiles is not that hard I think..

[pone44]

If there is a trading section then i guess no.If there are members-staff that happen to see trades and report it to the other trackers, oh well. Does not concern me.. I Do not care for the trading section, not bitching about it either.

Cheaters here, yes i think their Ip's should get banned..

[pentomato]

Isn't selling and trading invites against the rules in any tracker?
Well if anyone is as stupid as doing so and get scam, then it is their fault, I don't feel bad for them, the one's been scammed they knew better didn't they?

The question posed here is should their IPs be released not give ur comments abt trading/selling

Nothing should be done, stupid people should stop doing what they are not supposed to do period.

FST should share IP's of scumbags with the FBI

Yes Guantanamo Bay, life in jail...

[Something Else]

I vote that detale shuts the hell up instead of making drama upon drama.

Umm, how do you know that the people trading isn't the fbi?, you never know, also whats the differents in you downloading and reporting traders to fbi?, it's kinda wrong, maybe disable most of their account if you can but it isn't worth reporting to the fbi.
