do u donate in trackers.....?

I have recently. Why?

Because they need it to pay servers and what not.
Because in some cases i get free upload.
Because in some cases we get invites.
Because in some cases we get a star next to our name.

Thats all my reasons.
 
Not if you use a pre paid gift card or a friends CC if concerned about that. I trust certain staff to be mature enough not to screw with any donors information. That would destroy the trackers reputation, nobody would ever donate again if it was a problem.

If a member really likes a site then I see no problem in donating if you have the money.

Edit: Btw could get in trouble either way, would not be from donating to a tracker. I don't think.
Jail over a few downloads:rolleyes:, please.
Maybe a fine which would hurt more than jail.

I have a few that I have "been meaning to" (isn't that the excuse we all use?), but I have not. When I do, and I will, it will be to support the sites that give me a lot of joy and entertainment. Some have really made a lot of effort to make a nice, friendly place. They do truly deserve our support!

Quoting myself from earlier in the thread because I am now a donor.:01: Donated to a very deserving site that I enjoy daily. :happy:

Edit- and others will follow, just not this month. :(
 
You know I never have , I share till my ratio is 3 to 1 . Thought about it but would rather donate to a software developer like Crap cleaner or a site like Black Viper's . Some schmuck that pays for his web space with out complaint .

It's suppose to be free , remember Fosi ?
 
I used to donate about everywhere but now I only donate at the places that I respect (or seem to respect me as a member ) regardless of how much I actually use the site.

OK that's not entirely true if I see someplace that is really lacking in donations for a given month then I feel compelled ( no doubt stupidly so) to help out.

It's not like I'm made of money but it's also like I haven't gotten my money's worth 10 times over.:idunno:
 
P2L as a reason to donate is really not worth it. It's much better to spend that money on a seedbox, which will help all your other torrent sites too.

Ofc, you can look at the amount donated as a gift to perpetuate the tracker (and we all hope that it will do just that).

However, the donation can also be seen as a thank you for all of the enjoyment and efforts that we have already received.

I do not believe fear that a tracker will eventually fail (close its doors) is a fair reason to not donate. If everyone thinks that way, all trackers will eventually have to close or be entirely supported by owners/staff. That just isn't fair in my book.

And remember, you do not have to donate such a large amount. It's great if you can afford that kind of generosity, but many trackers have donation buttons starting at $5. How far would that go towards a [pick whatever kind of entertainment you receive from your favorite tracker and imagine that it's gone].

If my broke, Ramen eating, grad-school goin', twins due in March, ass can afford to donate, I think most people can. :D
