I already posted about allegations of Pham fucking off with donations over a month ago.
And meh I am a bit busy these days so, guess this lame bullshit can be left here.
Yet as predicted, you did eventually post exactly this latest revelation on your blog. You simply regurgitate what is posted here plus in this case a little googling on your part.
It is exactly the same as the original post on your site after azazel posted his original disgust at spektormax for linking others to childporn images he was viewing on 5chan. Your revelation of spektormax details on your blog are simply copy & pasted details from a post that was later edited in this very forum, your information and your sources stem from the fact that you hover like a vulture over every site based e-drama.
But as I predicted, your response time is quite slow.
My point is you are a hack, you simply repeat what others have written, it isn't breaking news, you react (slowly) when a drama ensues then simply live over the threads refreshing every few minutes to update your tawdry blog.
p.s. you are still completely and utterly wrong with your 720p assertions too, do a little homework before posting on a technical aspect, or at least ask an encoder.

Btw I'm still waiting for my bank to do something about that.
Seriously though stealing small serially exponentially increases the risk of eventually being caught and ,although the chances might be slim,having all the thefts( a large amount so subsequently a large penalty) traced back to you.
Well I've been a member here for years, never post but read a lot from time to time.
I felt the urge to post about this however.
I was owner of a site that went bad, really bad with a lot of drama involved. I just posted to state the obvious, most people don't know the truth and never will when sites go tits up.
People need to keep an open mind when reading, 99% of the posts in a thread like this will be from lowley members or even those that have never been on the site in question, yet they take sides.
Having been in a situation where a lot of back stabbing from staff was going on, donations being used against the wishes of the majority of people giving them and the people putting the work in I can some what maybe if I'm lucky understand that I know very little about the motives behind anyone involved here, but that very little is at least something.
One thing I know is you can't tar the whole staff with the same dirty brush for the actions of one or two members of staff.
What you can do is join the site and experience it yourself only seeing what is in the open, avoid the site or just post random opinions on what you think about it all.
I'm glad the people who have taken the reigns on this site have not started any smear campaign against the previous owner and seem to be handling it very maturely. If they are letting people make their own minds up then they must have good facts to support their case and not feel the need for "he said, she said" playground tactics.
Anyway, my opinion on this for what it's worth is that the most honest thing people can do is not believe either side, be a skeptic and assume both sides are exaggerating their points, I mean this happens in real life fighting so it's safe to assume it's true on the web.
Make your own minds up people based on facts or your own personal experience.
I'm a lowely member of PTP and as far as I can see they have got rid of some bad apples and seem to be happy they can now lower the amount they will be asking for regarding donations, be more transparent in explaining the cost and listen to what members want to see change.
I think the drama is over and the future is bright for this site after being under a cloud for a long, long time.
Feel free to flame me, I don't expect anytihng less form some for having an honest opinion.

Oh shit, I did miss that. It doesn't really say what site it's talking about and since it's all the way down in the middle forum rules, I am gonna imply it's most likely their forum rules. Even then I would suspect it's talking about not brusing their ego.
What.CD locked a thread so they have a rule againist disrespecting other trackers? That's some weak bullshit too. Considering most forums lock threads that end up in drama. (Mainly because their idiots and don't click drama == what people want.)

what?
this here is exactly why I don't think evolution quite rightly explains the origins of man.It's just not feasible that am sharing a common ancestor with him.
If he evolved then I didn't.
for someone who doesn't give a fuck,that's quite a detailed post.
You read his blog and I think all that matters to him and his Adsense account,your opinion doesn't mean shit.
Now imagine if you could just start clicking on the Ads.
I've seen the post and he has done the noble thing of acknowledging his sources.So what's your problem....mate?

PTP is a shitty site. And that pham thief, is he one of the PTP pedophiles? Fucking asshole.
I call it bullshit right now.
I'll be sure to send the scene a memo saying you'd like a special release format prepared just for you. I'm sure they'll be thrilled :yup:
do you really think people will let such a great tracker die without another chance? :blink:
I bet they won't :happy:
Friends make mistakes.So instead you will just make vague allegations and therefore coat them all ,whether involved or not ,with the same bucket of *****.
Remind me never to be your friend.
I might have made one then.
I'll check to be sure and if so, I learnt a lesson today.
I dont think is an urban myth, it was a plot in a Superman movie done by a Richard Pryor character, LOL.

So now that Toyota has recalled all the cars that could potentially have fatal break defects, does that mean we should now trust them unequivocally and act as if nothing has happened :mellow:? What's to say that they didn't miss any, or that other cars of theirs will also break down in the future?
The actions of a small group, even if the problem has already been removed, will always smear the reputation of the company (or in this case, the rest of the staff). A reputation takes a long time to build up and only a matter of seconds to completely destroy. You can't blame others at all harboring doubts as to the rest of the staff as people will always believe, no matter how tiny, that there is a chance of correlation to the rest of the staff. Especially after two incidents in rapid succession, this will most certainly leave a scar that others won't soon forget.
Furthermore, how do you know for a fact that the other remaining staff are really trustworthy? How can you be certain that they aren't also tricking you, seeing as two of the members that (supposedly) should be the most trustworthy, site owners/hosters, could not be trusted? Now I'm not insinuating anything here about the remaining staff, but you can easily see how it would lead others to mistrust the site.
And yet again, how can you be positive that the problems are really nonexistent with the new set of staff?
You are saying that other users are basing the site without any basis of facts or a solid understanding of the situation, but do you have the facts to back up your view? You don't have the paypal logs, the donation amounts, etc. as undeniable proof that the new staff are completely trustworthy. You have just as many "facts" to back up your opinion as others do for their opinion.
So are you another one of those people that are pro-culling peoples opinions? In my mind that doesn't make you any better than the people that hold an unreasonable vendetta towards a certain tracker and will bash it at any opportunity. No matter how ridiculous or biased someones post may be, it's still their opinion. You think it's wrong? Respond explaining why. There is no need to talk down or respond like that simply because they are voicing an opinion against a tracker. Open and free discussion is what gives useful feedback to improving a site, not useless all-positive fluff.

hmm...
well i suppose that's an interpretative statement...('changing the face and structure of revolt'). what i meant by that is that a section of revolt was removed due to a spat with some people who are now CN staff (this was like 2 years ago)...I'd have to check with friends but afaicr it was a major bt section like reviews or maybe even invites or something.
In hindsight my statement was misleading and exaggerated there, sorry..this is all i meant, and if I'm even wrong about my clarification of what i meant then ok I'm wrong, can easily get to the bottom of it)...would like to know as i don't like to state bs..

that's so cute. I didn't defend spektormax's actions because i believe they were wrong and fucked up.
and i'm not a ptp fanboy. i use it as much as i use the other movie trackers i have.... i just know most the staff there better than i know staff anywhere else...
what amuses me is how tracker staff are supposed to be mature... the way you keep bashing other sites makes me assume you're 12 and therefore should not staff anywhere.
You know how in pretty much every single tracker's rules page it says:"do not disrespect other trackers"? great job at following rules! you sure got +1000 man points for that!
keep on bashing! you're well hardcore!
