    yes, I got booted twice (over my 3 year BT life)but I am not good at IRC chatting (hate the format) and I never asked for my account back or to explain the situation.

    I had an account at awesomehd and they had a forum to give away invites to other trackers. I gave away an invite to one site and the dude asked me if I needed an invite to a site (he listed 4-5 sites) One of the sites was one I wanted so I said sure send me one. He sent me the invite and then reported me to admin. Yes I broke there rules and I got my ip banned.

    As I have previously stated in a long post I don't think there is anything wrong with trading invites for the purpose of both people getting into a site they want to use. I am against collecting sites and selling invites/accounts. I like to trade books, clothes, jokes, wives (only with my one friend who has a pornstar looking wife.... yeah it is in my dreams)

    THere is nothing wrong with disagreeing over a site's rules. You can choose to break some of there rules but if u get caught.... take your medicine and move on.

    When the cop waits at the bottom of a steep hill in the middle of nowhere to catch u speeding u get nabbed ( at least I have a couple of times). I disagreed with the officer about the validity of the ticket but I didn't yell or swear and i paid the ticket.

    What i would like to see is people more accountable for there mistakes. Don't try to cheat,dupe, lie your way back into a tracker. Yes u may be able to do it but its slimy.

    I imagine being an admin at one of these sites is tough. Must be kind of like being an insurance adjuster. You have so many people lying to u all the time that u lump the good ones in with the bad.

    Yeah, from cossanostra by theDevil as far as I remember, or some other cunt. Reason: someother cunt from fst who accused me in public. But I got over it.

    We have seen A LOT of threads created for purposes of bitching about individual sites/staff- this is not one of those.

    Let's take this opportunity to look at the data coming in. So far, it seems that more people have, at one time, felt that they were banned unfairly.

    Questions:

    What system(s) can be put in place so that this happens less?

    Supposedly, the US Justice System is designed so that "100 guilty men will be set free instead of one innocent man being found guilty". Does this idea apply to BT, why or why not?

    Should there be some form of appeal forum available (not the open "poor me" style we have seen here)? How would/could this be implemented?


    I would like to bring these ideas to the table as an example of what can be discussed once we start looking outside of the "I was..." perspective. Let's look at the BIG picture here. Let's think macro-...

    I would also like to thank the BT staff who generously donate their time to make this community possible. You face a lot of "yes or no" decisions and have a fantastic rate of being correct! Far too often that is missed when things are seen on a micro- level as well.
