FTN Request - Please read :)

[1000possibleclaws]

Not to bash your request or anything, but if you don't get FTN your TB buffer on TL will probably last your whole life anyways, unless you start hit and running.

I am doubtful you will get your request filled, judging by the fact that you're new here and have less than 50 posts. FTN is a site where users just don't throw invites around carelessly. Noone here really knows you well enough yet to take that risk.

so stay here longer than 2 months or longer after you got all the invites you look for. after all the reason why u are here. this request is a living proof of it. And then, who knows, you might understand them.

and if you have a shit connection, care to explain why demonoid isn't good enough for you? why should FTN take the toll on your connection ?

i don't like those kind of comments made towards people who aren't english native speakers. "eh at least i don't need a translator". At least they speak more than one language.

enough said.

If you read my OP you would see that i lost my first account. It was far older, had around 10rep and around 100 posts. I helped out here and there and made a couple of friends on the way.

As for demonoid...i think we both know that unless you scan everything you download, the possibility of a virus is much much greater than any private tracker. My connection isn't extremely bad, for example i can get 1:1 on pretty much anything i download, it just takes a while. (1-2 days minimum for tv shows) Thats why i seed it 24/7. I don't online game so hogging what connection i have is fine.

As for the english native speakers thing, that was completely taken out of context, i go to uni in edinburgh, half of my classmates are not of caucasian descent nor is english their first language. But you have to agree that when you get a request in completely translated english (Not just poor english skills, i mean straight from a translator) it puts a seed of doubt in your mind.

Not because they simply can't speak or write fluent english but rather the problem of communication. For example if you need to help/guide them, it is much harder to do so if the person is not fluent in your language.

Out of interest, do you come to fst to de-rail everyone's requests and comments? If so that's your initiative but i swear i've yet to find a nice or congratulatory post of yours. If you hate this place so much, why waste your time here. Seems a bit stupid to me

i don't hate this place, actually. i do love it.
but what i do hate is people trying to outsmart everyone else for their own intents.

look at your request, you just said that your connection isn't so bad and that you can seed anyways 1:1 , so that renders all your point in having FTN useless.
you might as well say that you want it cuz it's "1337" to be a member there or something. i do appreciate honesty.
now, don't come tell me that TL or IPT wouldn't be enough for your needs. Those are the two easiest places to seed at, even with the shittiest connections, and contents, well... they're the kings of the hill.

Mind you that i am not even a member at FTN, but all your request smelled to BS. or laziness ... or whatever else.

didn't mean to be rude on you, but one gets tired watching day after day the same stories around here.

All i simply meant was that i got used to the upload speed of dedicated servers. I wasn't asking for an easy way out or a free ride like demonoid. I like private trackers, not simply for the "Level" but for the security involved. I enjoy participating in the small competitions each tracker has and having a laugh around the forums...its just not the same on a public tracker, never mind the dodgyness involved.

Anyhow T.S.O.L is definately talking sense, i'll close this now. I wasn't trying to outsmart anyone by any means. I've helped out and contributed quite a lot, especially to BC. That doesn't mean i can float in and receive any invite i wish, just that i'm not only here for one invite them i'm gone.

If you wish to PM me cabalo, i'll tell you my username over on BC. If nothing more you can see that i'm not just trying to act l33t by any means. Take it easy people.
