    yeah mostly lower level trackers have much better staff then the ones with extraordinary exclusiveness,in sense of communication with members and understanding for their actions.That is one good example laid by IPT staff.

    thank you grammar boy
    Well fuck you too

    I was trying to not make a good thread into some grammar discussion, by adding something they couldn't correct.

    (this post probably deserves an infraction, but well worth it IMO, so report away if you want)

    Nowadays, there are more trackers than there are members, so if your tracker misbehaves, they get bookmark removed, or worse, URL deleted.

    I realize that this is tangential, but since it appears to be a contentious issue, I can't resist trying to settle it properly.

    Unknowingly is indeed a more accurate choice. If you did something, your will intended it to happen. If you invited someone, you did so willingly. The issue of whether it is known to you or not refers to your awareness of facts, not your desire to do an act. I'm sure you can see how the issue is really whether he knew that the invitees were cheaters, not whether he intended to invite them.

    Peace guys, remember the context of this thread. Being nice is the key to dealing with other people efficiently. So thanks for posting such a wonderful example of kindness from powers of authority. I have received nothing but the kindest support from all staff of every tracker I've been a member of, so maybe I'm just lucky or maybe it is because I'm nice to begin with.

    Being nice certainly won't kill anyone.

    And even if you'd like to ban that person's ass immediatly for inviting bad users or for trading invites, sending a PM with a standard nice text message (text you already saved on your computer hard drive) certainly won't kill you.

    It's only 4 kb after all.
    Live long and prosper.

    These guys have a tough job to do in policing all the scammers and cheaters. I'm sure the first 1000 'nice' notices they sent out and got ignored on made them think a notice with more 'fang' would be more seriously received. Even so, the notice is firm, but plenty polite in my opinion.

    They didn't randomly ban the guy, just advised him and noted his file. Perhaps he should wipe his tears, thicken his skin and pay more attention to who he brings in. 1 cheater is a slip through but two raises an eyebrow. Remember, these jerks kill the goose for us all in the long run.

    I think IPT is a pretty good beginner's tracker, and as such, they probably have more shenanigans to deal with than do the high level ultra-rare trackers.

    Keep on keepin on, I says. Bravo IPT, keep your chin up.

    Success goes to people's heads, thats probably what happens with some of these "high level" tracker staffs.

    Nice of IPT staff to politely warn the user.

    Ideally a user should enjoy torrenting and not feel like it's a drill.
