What do you think of "tracker invite" forums?

[TP635]

I only browsed the briefly since I'm a bit low on time atm, so I may be reiterating what was already said, sorry about that.

Basically, invite forums were opened by morons seeking invites for themselves, and are used by morons seeking invites for themselves. There is no justification, per se, for the existence of invite forums other than for the purpose of swapping invites/accounts amongst their members/staffers, under the pretense of building a "community".

Some of these sites may be worse than others, others may be keeping a facade of playing nice and by the rules, but ultimately they are all damaging the community. Some of the staffers of these forums will tell you they opened up to contribute to the community - well, I say if you want to help the community go and start your own tracker, don't pimp other people's work.

Thank God this isn't an invite forum.Seriously I think that more invites get given out randomly on the web than get given out here anymore.
And you don't get invited any place from being staff here which is the way it should be.

But this is an invite AND a threading Forum.

I've only been active on FST and a place where the goat-theme is quite common.

I've been hearing a lot of people complain about the 'goat'-place lately. To each his own I suppose, but not everybody sucks dick there or has sexual relations with animals. I NEVER sucked up to anyone there, I have never been afraid to speak my mind and when I did I never got into any kind of trouble.
I never asked for a tracker invite in public, nor in private.

I do believe those 'invite-places' are filled with two types of people.
The ones looking for invites and the ones not looking but just interested in meeting some nice chaps and meeting new people.

I joined that 'goat-place' without any intention of obtaining invites and made a fair share of friends there, people that were in no need of an invite, just like me and just wanted to have a place where they could have some fun and/or discussions.

I've said this a hundred times before ... the way you perceive a tracker or forum is entirely personal. Off course people that get kicked out from a place (rightfully or wrongfully) will not speak high of that place. And some will just abandon their accounts because they feel they don't belong there.

I'm still a member here at FST and that 'goat'-place and unless one of these 2 places starts doing things that personally make me feel 'unhappy' I won't give up my membership.

Can't comment on other places like TPS, I-C, and the likes since I might have signed up there a long time ago but never bothered to become active since I didn't feel at ease there.

You have said it all Disme

There are good and bad people, good and bad things everywhere.

Bitching about it because you were banned there for breaking whatever rules will not change that. Just live with it and stop posting in every thread bashing this or that site you don't like.

Not to me.
If this forum was truly about invites or trading I would have zero reason for continuing to come here.
It's after all FileSharingTalk not Invite Central.

Like most things it's really what you make of it.
