BitTorrents are a two-way street ...
Apart from the observations made to the gentleman above, have you guys ever considered the reasons why it is that you do not receive anywhere near the invitations you apply for?
BitTorrents depend on uploading as much as on downloading, and in a similar manner, most communities like a little bit of contribution before handing out the goodies. On other tracker-trading sites similar to this one, newbies are not even allowed to beg for invitations before they have been part of the forum for a certain while, during which they are expected to contribute with meaningful content, not just «gimme, gimme» requests for every tracker under the sun or «great»/«thanks» blah-blah. This site is rather generous in that aspect, making it a lot easier for new members than it was for those who hand out the invites now, but why not take a look around other sections and see if you can contribute something useful?
That might be helpful advice and a few pointers to people who ask technical questions, suggestions for the site's improvement, reviews of those trackers you are already a member of, constructive discussions of new industry/political/technical developments ... it does not take a lot to demonstrate that you are not only here for a quick Hit & Run on invites, does it? Putting in a little effort would show others that you are trying to contribute to the community, which in turn would lead to many more of your prayers being answered.
At the very least, look at the applications made by others and the response they received (or not) and learn from it, instead of merely shooting off your run-off-the-mill three letter «I want» posts. Provide proof of having been a responsible member of other trackers or at least think of some original argumentation why it should be you instead of others who receives the invite. Why? Because, if you are too lazy to do that little here, how can we possibly be sure that you will put in the necessary effort to keep your (and our) accounts safe and in the green on private trackers where it sometimes costs a lot more money/work/time to adhere to the rules and conditions?
Just a thought, no criticism or offense intended. Give your application another shot and we will take it from there. :shades_smile:
Was that supposed to be an application?
Thank you for seeing it that way, and please forgive my not being quite sure whether this was an application of yours or merely a friendly comment. If you would like to obtain an invitation, please read through the responses to previous candidates and elaborate a little on how you intend to remain an active and contributing member on all the trackers you are applying for. It is comprehensible to feel like a kid in a candy store, grabbing as many invitations as one possibly can when they are all for free, but usually, most of them are neglected soon, as one concentrates on the two or three that one can handle in only 24 hours per day.
While preparing an application worth that denomination, have a wild party and a good transition into MMXVI. :santaclaus:
Thank you for the nice compliment :-)
That is a very nice compliment ...
... because English is not my mother tongue. Thank you very much in the name of my teachers, who must surely have lost a few nerves back in the day. :alberteinstein:
It is a nice gesture for a moderator to take the time to give positive praise, instead of always punishing mistakes only. It shows character as well as a friendly atmosphere in the community and is greatly appreciated. Have a drink on me tomorrow, all the best for MMXVI and take care. :martini_shaken:
You are welcome, but your e-mail address will be required ;-)
Please excuse the delay,
I caught a terrible cold over New Years eve and am kind of spitting my lungs out these days. Nevertheless, if you send me your e-mail address in a private message, I shall enter it into IPT's form for invitations and the latter will be sent from them directly to you. :shades_smile:
