HDBits should never open its doors ...

[cap87]

There are invites floating around. They are just not available for "regular" users. Would be nice if they opened invites to everyone though, there are indeed many good guys who could contribute so much to the site being left out... i personally wish i could make use of my invites.

By the way, the op is still retarded because:

1 - He seems to think that he his better than everyone else because he is a member of a torrent site (lol)
2 - He fails to understand that the site is as good as 2 years ago because new members join the site every day. Without new blood, any site would slowly die.
3 - There are tons ways to prevent bad apples from joining.
4 - Opening a thread in fst is not going to make you feel any more elitist

I thought that was the whole idea behind what goes on BT today.
Being part of leet trackers and even leeter forums isn't the way to go any longer?

Unfortunately not entirely a true statement because by their continued abject refusal to allow "normal " invites they have only succeeded in setting themselves up for an influx of level-hunters,traders and invite sellers of biblical proportions.Not that it has anything to to with the bible or maybe it does because it might in this case be termed a self-fulfilling prophecy .

Not to make any kind of statement but which sites don't have that kind of problem um maybe the easy to get into ones?

Maybe I am stupid or naive, but isn't it true that the 90 % of the people who are on private trackers have never done anything wrong? If it's true, then why would you think that any tracker would be flooded with bad members if it suddenly allowed its power users and higher ranked members to invite anyone they wanted to invite?

I think in the eyes of the law enforcement agencies of most countries 100% of the people on private trackers have done something wrong.

To answer the question less facetiously though simple economics . The greater rarity of an item the greater the profit . The greater the profit the more justified the risk.
Also higher user levels ( ie bigger upload /buffer) are ironically more likely to be the realm of traders/sellers than the less ostentatious ones.
That is not to say that the majority of people given invites will quickly turn around and try to sell them .All I'm trying to say is that by imposing a rarity level on the site ,HDBits is itself( if they ever allow invites again) encouraging trading far more than if they simply maintained a more reasonable invite system.

Exactly.. They're bringing traders in their system themselves. If they hadn't like closed the invite for so much time, this hype wouldn't have been created.

Just leave the OP, I said. He's just can say "hei, you all are jealous so you can make reply like that bla bla bla".

OP, I ask you what if you are born later like 8-7 years later, how do you join a godly tracker like this if the tracker never open invites to an expert like you.

Sorry for my another rant . Hopefully no one will take it personally . Peace in FST.

There is currently a VIP in HDBits offering invites to those who passes his interview, which means that you'll need to have a substantial amount of encoding knowledge in order to get in through this way.

You'll also need to know somebody who is in HDBits.

I am most likely not going to help the people here unless I know them personally.

Here are the requirements.

Requirements:

1. You must know someone who is willing to dedicate themselves to be a HDTV Capper.
or
2. You must know someone who is willing to provide encodes of sources.
or
3. You must know someone who is willing to spend money on iTunes content (WEB-DL's)

For option #1 provide me with name, a few pictures of the capping gear and tell me this person's upload speed.

For option #2 provide me with name, person's upload speed and equipment for encoding with pictures.

For option #3 provide me with name, and screen-shot of his available credits to download. Must have at least $300 worth of credits.

I will not be giving these invites liberally. I will conduct interviews once I've selected prospective candidates. Invites are only given to candidates that I deem worthy. Invites may or may not be given out at all.

If you think these requirements are near impossible, they are. Tough luck!

No offense .
