The catch there being: you can get relatively popular stuff anywhere, why would you want to have another tracker for relatively popular stuff?

Wow, I wasn't aware of that. Looks like I'm more famous than I thought. :lol:

That's my first post. I got an infraction for it, so I only need to go to my User CP for quick access. :lol:

Bottom line: CN needs more members.
Exacto!
Was expecting this somewhere as I caught up on this thread....but page 5...
Oh well, seems like unless you have a very loyal user group (with credit cards in hand hahaha), you need more members. :/
Obviously such a post is an open invitation for bashing, flaming, and other such FST shenanigans. Hopefully, some will get something out of it besides that.
I have heard alot of mumbo jumbo of how demandingly active you must be to be a member of CN. False. Yes, there are lots of features (that no other site has, btw) but none of them need be ever used. This site can be used as simply as any other site with the same basic rules...You are expected to seed and leech. If you don't do these 2 simple things then you will get disabled. If you are one to "care" about promotions in class, then yes, more is expected of you. That should be expected though. Unlike other sites, being an all-around user is rewarded as opposed to being a simple ratio whore.
Movie tracker only. Movies and just movies.
There have been 81 active users in the last 30 minutes.
There are over 10,000 alive (seeded) torrents.
Online Since: 2008-08-22
There are a little over 2,000 users.
There are 110 people on the main irc channel.
Anyone can upload.
A complete monthly cost report is available to all in regards to exactly where all funds go.
To join irc you need SSL, btw.
BD/BR: about 1000 torrents
HD: about 2000 torrents
x264/SD: about 1000 torrents
XviD: about 8500 torrents
DVD-R: around 400 torrents
We have about 50 packs but we chose not to allow anymore over a year ago now. 46 of the 50 are alive with seeders.
On a side note...
Nobody is perfect. Neither are I and the rest of the staff. BUT I believe most of us are easily approachable. Many have PMed me here in regards to being disabled for any number of reasons. All have been enabled except one, I believe. Besides that, most of the staff members don't post here. So, it is unfair to judge them by my or others actions here. Nuff said.
Let the shit-blizzard begin...
Edit: Changes made and things in the works...
We don't allow RARed files anymore. And very soon we will be implementing new rules in regards to duplicate size movie torrents and not allowing them unless trumped. All are in agreements that the number of releases by so many groups are getting out of hand and redundant. As mentioned before we are working on a new category system as well.

cn ftw!
Having a tracker for packs is pretty damn stupid. Just thought I should throw that out there.
Also, it seems that every sucker in btt has turned into whores for pointless gimmicks. Have lost faith in people I once thought were cool dudes. I can't stand even half the people I 'trust' anymore. Maybe I'm just getting a bit old for all this and should fuck myself off to the lounge for good/. :dabs:

thanks for keeping fst alive 
It's an opinion you don't have to necessarily agree with it( although I tend to as it's one of the few sites where people are still mostly there for the content and not the associated bullshit or their own egos) but no need to cast aspersions over it either.
I'm more or less on the same page as TrueSounds in that I can't stand the majority of "active" bt members who seem more concerned about the superfluous shit and status than the actual stuff that they are actually downloading.
Btw what is the "best community " then? Wanks like HDBits that are so anal in their quest for "perfection" that they have taken any possible fun out of the process of watching movies or for that matter just being a simple member or places like FSC or iTS where "community" now seems to mean little more than spamming and adhering to the "I'm just the same as everyone else ethos " and God forbid don't be a non-conformist .
OK, I can see where I really shouldn't have used the word "best" there, in retrospect it seems more like a troll-baiting term than towards what I wanted to get at. Basically all I wanted to say was goem is the most laid back community I have ever been in. There's no crazy flamewars against other trackers/forums, no perception of being looked down upon if you are lacking in knowledge, and just an overall happy and friendly place to be a part of. It is the tracker I started with quite a while ago, and I still consider it my hoem after all of this time. Nothing meant to be a flame in means of saying it was the best, just pointing out what community really means is all.
For tl;dr, goem is a laid back and friendly place, shouldn't have used the word 'best', sorry for any flaming I caused. Sit back, have a nice cold one, and enjoy the day

But the movies listed in IMDB,rotten tomatoes etc are popularly liked ones.And it dosent reflect the "Awesome list" of one particular individual and taste.Stupid thing is that those are also just based on personal opinion(s) and essentially just as random a collection of movies as "movies that are awesome"
Also there are other collections as well you know...

As you all know I created this whole thing with FST and CN, and I want to put in my 2 cents on this issue.
I think CN's staff team is full of helpful people and I like all of them. CN has great content, sweet customizations on site, a neat forum and a pretty swell set of rules. The one I broke, I'm not saying I dislike it because it got me banned, but that Traders are MUCH more likely to trade invites/accounts From CN because of the fact that it wants to be secret in a way. That rule is one that really sets itself up for these traders. It may sound weird as it has no relation to trading but the fact that it's a rule that states that some content on site is to ONLY be viewed by members is very exciting for traders when they find a person who is not so used to using private trackers and says: "Hey man, I'll take your Demonoid invite for a CN invite. It's a secret site." If you aren't a trader, imagine if you were. How tempting would that offer be? In my opinion: very. I just think that rule is tempting for traders. And by my thoughts above, I'm not trying to sound like a kissass lol.

i apologize, i totally bit because i tend to troll when i get bored w/ the same types of conversations around here; i get where you're coming from when you think you've found the best community to be a part of. i'm a member of a handful of art/design forums where i find that the best community is something i can immerse myself into and also, at the end of the day, take something away from, rather than contributing the bare minimum by logging into a bt tracker account every few days, posting maybe once or twice in the forums and snagging a couple of small torrents, which is pretty much what my private bittorent tracker memberships have becomekingeater said:
as for cn, i don't know any of the staff members there (maybe bumrocks) or how they run their tracker, and i'm not really following all of the poo that is being flung and whether it's true or not, but if they can create and maintain a small, tight-knit community that their members want to be a part of, more power to them; seeing as how i'm not a member of cn (i guess my invite application was denied), it's not really my business to be commenting on how they run their shit w/ any confidence, if i did at all, i don't remember
It's pretty well known that I am who I am here. Unlike many others I have nothing to hide.
Not sure if we're thinking of the same place here but I've seen at least one of those threads. So I'd wager there are severalanon-sbi said:Wow, I wasn't aware of that. Looks like I'm more famous than I thought.

Donations are at 70%. This has nothing to do with needing more members and their money. But I understand how small minded haters are quick to point to this. Especially after the last announcement, as well. Understandable. Do we want more members? Yes. But this thread was started more to inform people about what the site was really about as opposed to the bullshit stories going around. Nobody asked me to do this thread. I only asked if I could do this thread.
I expected all the hating. But I can handle it. Is there some sort of hate war going on between FST and CN? Some have said so, but many many times, including right now, I have defended FST and the decent people here...Therefore, I say no to the hate war. There are people at CN that hate FST and there are those at FST that hate CN. But the same can be said between most sites and FST. Because I am in the minority I choose to post about CN and what it is about. Nobody has done the choosing of me or for me.
My response to TSOL, TrueSounds, or whatever the fook you want to call yourself. I know very little about you except for any and all interaction here at this site. Regardless, of what you think of me, in a strange way I can't but help like or at least somewhat respect you. Whatever happened between you and CN must have been some bad shit...I say this since you seem to have strong feelings about the whole situation. Oh yeah, in regards to your statement about anon-sb and me. Simple curiosity is all. Nothing more or less.
For most others without issuing a long list of names, I could give a rats ass about you, who you think you are, what you pretend to be, etc. You might fool some with your pretend coolness but I am smarter than most and can read between the lines. I know you're not cool in "real life" and therefore suck at being cool online.
To clear another thing up. Cabalo. He is in my friends list. Whether I am in his or not I have no idea. I know all the bad shit that went down between him and CN but I still like the guy. I make mention of this because I have received PMs in regards to things said between him and I on this site. I liked him better before he was a mod here but never-the-less he is still good in my book. If you are genuine and have strong beliefs I can respect that whether I agree or not. As I think Idol said...We can all be dicks at times.
Yes, I know I have opened myself up for more bashing...But I can manage. Bring it on bitches.
