Invites to several trackers

[mjmacky]

@anon

I've never really thought to ask until I saw MBM putting up his list. I'd normally think it's a collector's list, so I guess my question should go out to anyone that has "handfuls". So how many accounts do you have that haven't been used or searched in at least 2 months?

Edit: in case you're wondering why a 2-month timeframe, it's about how long it takes me to forget my login to a site, assuming I haven't forgotten I'm a member there.

You also have to take into consideration, how long a person has been into torrenting. The longer they've been into it. the more trackers they are likely to be a part of.

I know I've been around for about 7 1/2 years & I'm a member of quite a few, & would be considered a collector by some. But, I still use every single one of them (although not daily) & have donated to each one & still do when I can. Just because someone has multiple trackers doesn't make them a collector.

I'll go with what he decides of course

I appreciate the offer, KF. However, we can leave them as impaled corpses outside the castle walls.

I do sincerely hope some good applicants surface before too many Kamikazes crash and burn.


Mixed metaphors FTW!


As for the topic of "collecting". It certainly is a fair question which nobody is necessarily above. As others have already commented, those of us who have been around longer than others, are more likely to have an abundance of trackers. I have looked around, and I have settled on the sites I have posted offerings to. Outside of a couple sites I do not have invites to, and some who are adamant in their policies of "no public give-aways", what you see, is (mostly, what I've got). I do, in fact, enjoy the sites I am offering access to, and will make EVERY effort to sort out those who will diminish my enjoyment by occupying that same space. IMO, there are many in the community who belong on the outside of it.

Last night was a good example of why there is benefit to having a number of options available to a BT user- I stumbled across a copy of the new Fright Night on IPT. Neither RevTT, nor TL had it. Software is another category in which a varied number of choices is handy. Some of the software and instructional videos I want to explore are hard-to-find. I am interested in A LOT of topics- these vary from graphic design/3D, to photography, home remodeling, wood working, CNC/CAM, welding, cooking, health/pain relief, and that does not even touch on my interests in movies- which vary from mainstream American to Asian and occasionally lower-budget, too poor to advertise films.

I am not equally active on all of my sites, but the ones I am offering invites to are more times than not, checked 3-4 times per week. Many of them are checked several times a day. I also peek in on discussions on some of the sites, but typically post on FST more since it is such a readily-available hub for the community.

TorrentBytes was my "first"* tracker, and my account has been in good standing since:

Join date 2005-01-06 (6 years ago)

I was also a member of TorrentBits for over a year before they closed and became TBy with mostly new staff.


While I see no point in "collecting" for the sake of "being cool", there are circumstances where an individual can benefit from having several trackers at their disposal. And I have never ruled out pure curiosity as a valid reason for joining a site as long as there is potential for someone who benefits the community to be of value to that particular site.

While I would prefer to find good users for each of these sites, my previous attempts have resulted in disappointment.

And what kind of user would you think of as good?

Already defined that with my first post in this thread. Don't bother asking, Oleg. I wouldn't plague a site I like (or even dislike) with your presence.

This is also the last time I will respond to any of your posts, Oleg. I'm done with you- real-life problems, or not.

I think it might be a bit of the newsgroup gap. And the fact that I didn't start privately torrenting until let's say a year ago. TPB, btjunkie, and demonoid kept me solid for years (when did utorrent come out, '06?). In fact, I remember I started looking into private trackers because the usenet thing seemed to much of a hassle. I really needed to experience the pitfalls and shits stains of private bt before I could appreciate the awesomeness that is usenet. Anyways, you've tackled my inquiry MBM

TL .. Please?

People like you are the reason long-time members sit on their invites and don't offer them to newer members.

Reasons why I would NEVER give you help:

1. You are a trader.



2. You rarely attempt to write complete sentences (You are either dumb, careless, or both).

3. You seldom post on FST, yet alone engage anyone outside of making requests.

4. Obviously, you cannot be bothered to read/follow basic minimums, as posted.


Thank you's to those who have commented, and recognize what I am trying to do here- help people get into some really nice sites.

Please only make requests IF you meet my minimum standards. If you are unsure, post, but bring these potential issues to the table. Don't waste my time assuming that I won't check.

PLEASE DO NOT RUIN MY OFFER FOR THOSE WHO MAKE EFFORTS TO BE A GOOD MEMBER OF THE COMMUNITY.

Thanks for nothing .. Hero!

BTW .. don't make rules that apply for University!! it's just a tracker!

You are either dumb, careless, or both.

Cheers

You turns up from a beggar to a hero.Congratulations eh?

Bad news, it's actually harder than that to get into University. You'll know in about 6-8 years if and when you try to apply.

Are you serious?
