First of all FSC is not what most people think. There is very little activity on the tracker and forums and I found it so boring and unappealing I stopped going to the tracker all together a few years ago. I believe my account is dead and has been pruned and I do not even know my login credentials or affiliated email b/c I tried a few earlier but nothing worked. It is mostly attended by old, crusty farts like myself who think they are better than everybody else, or kids who think they are cool b/c they are a member of FSC. I'll admit this is my opinion and I truly do not think I am any better than anybody (but the old cranks at FSC certainly do), but let's get back to business shall we.

The only way into FSC that I know of is to be recruited/sponsored by a member. And this is where the pain begins my friend, there is an extensive interview/application process where a panel of senior members put the potential candidate through the ringer. The strange thing about this is the recruiter/sponsor acts as the mouth piece for the panel. As a candidate you need to supply proofs of every forum and tracker that you belong to. When I went threw this process the guy who was sponsoring me in said that FSC will research this information thoroughly and look for consistency, age of accounts, status of accounts and thoroughness (i.e. you better not leave anything off). Next they ask you the standard questions of why you want to join, what hobbies do you enjoy, and then they test your knowledge of BT (i.e. how long have you been involved, can you port forward, do you know how to appropriately upload files, etc...). The interview/applications are similar in structure at forums/trackers such as TPS and iTs, but FSC is way more rigorous and goes on for a few days.

To put it quite simply...do not waste your time unless you are a collector.

Same thing, not a tracker and not as much COMMUNITY.

Comparing to some high ranked trackers (worthless trackers with low torrent numbers and zero leechers) FSc is the best among them at least the whole tracker Always is FreeLeech + free upload credit you get from time to time.
and yes it's almost impossible to get an invite
