Was expecting this somewhere as I caught up on this thread....but page 5...
Oh well, seems like unless you have a very loyal user group (with credit cards in hand hahaha), you need more members. :/

Donations are at 70%. This has nothing to do with needing more members and their money. But I understand how small minded haters are quick to point to this. Especially after the last announcement, as well. Understandable. Do we want more members? Yes. But this thread was started more to inform people about what the site was really about as opposed to the bullshit stories going around. Nobody asked me to do this thread. I only asked if I could do this thread.
I expected all the hating. But I can handle it. Is there some sort of hate war going on between FST and CN? Some have said so, but many many times, including right now, I have defended FST and the decent people here...Therefore, I say no to the hate war. There are people at CN that hate FST and there are those at FST that hate CN. But the same can be said between most sites and FST. Because I am in the minority I choose to post about CN and what it is about. Nobody has done the choosing of me or for me.
My response to TSOL, TrueSounds, or whatever the fook you want to call yourself. I know very little about you except for any and all interaction here at this site. Regardless, of what you think of me, in a strange way I can't but help like or at least somewhat respect you. Whatever happened between you and CN must have been some bad shit...I say this since you seem to have strong feelings about the whole situation. Oh yeah, in regards to your statement about anon-sb and me. Simple curiosity is all. Nothing more or less.
For most others without issuing a long list of names, I could give a rats ass about you, who you think you are, what you pretend to be, etc. You might fool some with your pretend coolness but I am smarter than most and can read between the lines. I know you're not cool in "real life" and therefore suck at being cool online.
To clear another thing up. Cabalo. He is in my friends list. Whether I am in his or not I have no idea. I know all the bad shit that went down between him and CN but I still like the guy. I make mention of this because I have received PMs in regards to things said between him and I on this site. I liked him better before he was a mod here but never-the-less he is still good in my book. If you are genuine and have strong beliefs I can respect that whether I agree or not. As I think Idol said...We can all be dicks at times.
Yes, I know I have opened myself up for more bashing...But I can manage. Bring it on bitches.

Anal is the only form of birth control shown to be 100% effective. Even abstinence failed once.

You seriously need a bad cop to tag along for this routine, bumrocks. You can't pull off both jobs on your own.
Ellipses go here.

You do not know him and yet you make assumptions like those.
Being cool in internet means you are also cool outside the net?Moreover "being cool" is relative.
Smarter =/ Psychic.And a "smart guy" always needs to reassure himself that he is "smart"
P.S: Dont get me wrong,I aint one of those in CN hate bandwagon(Although some of it is BS).Couldnt agree with the above,thats all.

They would just fuck it up for me...Me, myself, and I are all on the same page.
Fair enough. My opinions are just that...Mine. Doesn't mean they are right. Part of my statements are incorrect in that some just take this shit too seriously and aren't trying to be cool...They are just dumbasses without a life. But that is just me thinking outloud with a keyboard. I know to of your various strife's but I have no issue with you personally. I am just responding to your statements and not speaking of you.

CN is a very nice site. I don't make use of it's unique features, but admire those who have spent a LOT of time designing and programming to make it what it is.
As for the staff, my interactions have been brief, but no one has ever given me the slightest indication of being an ass. Never.
I also noticed a number of members who recognized my name from there, and went out of their way to say, "hi" on other sites.
So, what do we have...?
1. A site that has been conceived and implemented to be fun and unique.
2. Staff who want to keep the site nice- or they wouldn't put so much effort into it in the first place.
3. A large number of truly friendly members who are nice even when it doesn't benefit "status" or post count.
CN is one of my favorite sites. I do end up grabbing quite a few movies from there, because they are not the same 0-day that most other sites get. And, even if there are only a few seeders, I have always gotten my files in a reasonable amount of time.
As for the comparison with CN and PtP, not much of a contest since the pedo scandal. PtP is dying. I believe the site is hurting for members as I have been given 2 invites (no, don't ask) in the past week-ish. I am not active, not a PU, and don't know staff there. I have also never had invites I did not "buy" with my seeding activity. It was a nice site before the scandal. This example should remain fresh in the mind of other site staff- there are lines that should not be crossed.

Yeah, between receiving blackmail threats to 'expose me' (with my schools ip address and email), having iKiller tell your members to spam threads on FST as a means of hiding a CN thread, iKiller himself coming on FST once in a blue moon to throw some spastic self indulgent fit, god knows what else I don't remember. It's not so much what happened to me directly, but a culmination of what I've witnessed since your sites inception that has shaped my feelings.
I don't think I've ever been outspoken negatively against any tracker besides yours. I'll always point out flaws I see, but I have never attempted a crusade against any of them because no other tracker worth mentioning has been run top down by such unsociable egomaniacs.

Yeah we filtered their url regardless of how inept they are at their relations with us. After all, we aren't complete scum over at FST.
