Oh hell no!
My joy is simply instilled when I see people running around looking to get in :D
I'm not and don't care to be :rolleyes:

Whatever I need will either come off Rapidshare or a friend's FTP in the UK.

Seriously though Oomtas, you're not going to get any invites like this.
Go to RAGE or some other LAN's and try and get yourself in...

*sigh*

EDIT: Who cares to be "in" anyway? :rolleyes:

@ShakeAndBake, not all of us can afford int :S

pls keep in mind that every person that gets invited for a place like this will be watched closely for excessive leeching and not seeding.
 
I wouldn't waste my time with local torrent sites. They are really awful in terms on what you can actually find there and how long it will be available.

Stick to newshost.

Unless you have a lot of upload bandwidth that you don't mind using to feed content to others! ;)
 
The reason why this thread is useless is this...

BitFarm has a posted policy on their site that any user who gives an invite to someone "in response to a request on another forum" will be banned.

The reason for this is, they only want people inviting their known friends who they know will be good seeders. There are too many people signing up to BitFarm and then abusing the service (leeching).

If you really do want to get an invite to BitFarm you should stick around here any make friends and get involved in the community here. If you prove yourself to be a faithful user of the resources offered here, then you will probably get an invite to BitFarm sooner or later.

Coming on here with a post count of less than a hundred and being a n00b is not going to get you an invite, so don't waste your time or ours.

Thanks for listening! ;)
 
Now this is interesting....

Bitfarm is an SA torrent tracker?

With policies even crappier than those of overseas torrent sites.

And I've always been a good seeder. I've now resorted to uploading stuff on uunet.co.za because at least that way I am not deemed a bad seeder because iBurps shapes the hell out of the TCP protocol.

This is true, but unfortunately they have to protect their own bandwidth.

Say for example, Joe N00b gets on the forum here and asks for an invite. He promptly is given one (so we can try him out). He logs on to the local Torrent site, sets his BitTorrent Client to the minimum upload speed, and procceds to download 30 Gigs (the amount his Telkom Local Account allows him). He then logs off and never goes back to the Torrent site that month. Next month he is back here again with a new username and asking for another invite.

he can keep raping the other faithful users of the Torrent site for 30 Gigs or more a month, simply because nobody knows who the hell he is, and because the Torrent site is willing to hand out invites to any and all.

Does that make it a little bit clearer? Hopefully you will see, handing out invites to all and sundry is not a wise policy on the surface of it. Better to invite those who have proved they can be responsible members of a community.
 
They should look at the likes of demanoid ....which everyone has respect for...(invites)

o yes do they not have a monitoring tool for users like that

it would not work to monitor them since his IP address would have changed by the same time next month.

The demonoid model is similar, but they have a huge userbase. Local torrent sites have less than a hundred active hardcore seeders.

It severely restricts your ability to be more open. Demonoid does not have to worry about limiting themselves to a select group, since they are accessible from anywhere. Local sites on the other hand only have a limited number of users to draw from... and the state of bandwidth in South Africa makes the average South African broadband user very stingy with sharing. It's not his fault... it is Telkom's fault. but there it is.
 
God I hate leechers! Seriously If you can leech you can sure as hell upload too!

That is just sad, okay, thank you for taking time to explain to all of the others :) but after that, I have read enough. :rolleyes:
