Thread: what's your opinion about trading invites ?

I was wondering what is your TRULY opinion about trading invites , we all know it's not allowed so we don't do it ( well at least some of us ) but i can imagine that some exclusive tracker members would like to trade their invites in order to join to an other ones , to SOME of them it's the only "card" to find their way in. do you think this members will make bad users ? i doubt it .
in some trackers you can get invite only by donation (in other words , you can only buy invites) but you can't sell/trade it , you can invite some one for free but you can only hope that in the future he will have something you need and invite you back , isn't it the same as trade ? and if private trackers sell it to you , why you can't sell it to others ? isn't it rude ?
in some other trackers you get your invites according to your upload and ratio share , but still - why can't you sell/trade it ? are the opsys pissed off because they don't get their cut ?

my opinion : even though i gave everything freely , and even though i never trade/sold invite in my life , i don't think trading invites is something negative , in fact i think trading/selling invites can be something positive if it's done in the right way
However i do think that disobeying to rules is something negative and that's why i never sold or trade .
please write what is your honest opinion , be honest and don't consider other people who might think different then you .

are must be giving for free to a good guys , how respecte the rules of trackers and the ratio.

Unless one is trading with someone he or she knows. Its complicated.

Never traded. But got 2 top trakcer from a friend 2 years ago who was an active trader. And you guys know what? He got everything.
Because of him i spent a few days in F##R AND E####. Only place i never been in was u#-#.
Another thing was i got scammed 2. He never admited but i think he scammed 1 or 2.

Its always riskey. And now a days with the riaa brein etc you just cant risk trading with unknows.

As for selling invites never did never will. And i think its even worse then trading.

you can't get scammed if it's done in the right way , related sites who deals with the issue can serve as middleman ....

Its really not worth the risk in my opinion!!! never done it,never will.

T-pirate : it's not about worth the risk or not , and not about if you done it or you will not , it's about your position about trading invites , i assume from your post that you see it as a negative thing , but you never explained why , the only thing you said that you will not do it out of fear...

I don't agree with trading. I believe it pollutes torrenting societies and more often than not leads to hard feelings. Not to mention that a huge number of traders put forth effort to infiltrate us here at T-1 which weakens our community.

sure this site demonizes it now but long ago they used to allow trading here as well as giving away accounts.

Anyways trading isnt a terrible thing imo. I will never trade here at this site and in my opinion i dont see anything wrong with trading invites with others. Really if you think about people trade invites for igivers here anyways.

I can't agree more and that is exactly my point , members are trading anyway for igiver and hoping that someone will invite them based on their reputation but it's exactly the same as trading .
