Anon Sbi, I see no point in what you do. I have no reason to cheat as seeding is not hard an d I am not disrespectful to staff. Especially at what where others work hard to get their ratio up while you just mod your client or whatever, I don't agree with that. Why can't you just dl and seed to 1.1 or 72 hours? I never used a seedbox. Also have no interest in a forum that teaches members to cheat trackers and their staff! You may see it different.

I do not want to know ANY methods, ways to do it... Not interested. Why risk a account cheating when one can survive by following the rules? Faking your stats I assume increasing your buffer and userclass which would give you privileges on some sites to ask for invites so you may have not traded. You just show them crazy buffered proofs.

I don't doubt your knowledge. Is like stealing a candy bar from the store when you have money in your pocket.



Yes, kind of. A part of me as well as the rest of the SB-I Staff expected an instaban. Fortunately, I was allowed to stay (although with disabled privileges at first, since it appears someone else was using the same proxy as me), the same way I'd allow you to post what you think about cheating on my board as long as you do it on an intelligent, non-spam way.


Yes, I make mods for a popular BitTorrent client that basically report increased stats (if any) to the tracker. But it's perfectly possible to leech and hit & run without this even being acknowledged on the tracker with the official version, and anyone with a slight amount of networking knowledge should find out how. I won't say it here, of course, but it basically allows you to appear as having downloaded 1MB of the wrong torrent, while you can leech that 10GB game at full speed without ratio worries. And this is without modding of any sort. So it's perfectly possible to hit & run and go unpunished without using a mod. The fake upload reports (or lack thereof) my mods offer come for free.





You'll never get banned if you do it correctly. You do get banned for having a low ratio, though (although some trackers are relaxed about ratios, and a few even give second chances).

Relaxed about ratios, not cheating....
Did you ever staff(fls) at a tracker?
Edit: but you never answered if you staffed at any trackers? You just have something to do with BT if you own such a forum.
Also why did you start the forum in the first place knowing that all or most of your pupils get banned just for being a member? I can't really blame them either. Not trying to be hostile.
 
his warm welcome here was me immediately disabling his privileges. :rolleyes:
Though not related from where he comes from, or what he is there.
He clearly showed he isn't here to mess up or be a troublemaker, and none of his intentions show he wants to convert more users to the "darkside".
Actually, his contributions have been far more positive than many users around here, with minded opinions on many different subjects.
I'm not defending him, as he is grown up enough to defend himself, but the fact is we have no reason to ban him whatsoever.
If he wants to cheat, that's his problem. If he wants to be gay, that's his arse hole's problem.
Simple.

I was referring to the welcome he got from FST members, I think he was called a genius by one and others were so nice to him he started one of his posts by saying something like 'thanks for the nice words'. I really wasn't expecting that sort of reaction to him.
 
How do you know I don't do my best to share legitimately regardless of cheating, which is the case? I may cheat, but that's mostly a last resort when torrents just don't seem to seed, not a way to have ratio requirements not apply and be able to leech for free.

And no, we aren't going to agree on this either.
I never expected to agree with you on this matter anon. I am surprised that my views are so at odds with the majority of members who have posted in this thread on the matter. I have said repeatedly that the admiration and praise that you recieved when you joined shocked me and I suspect it also surprised you.

I am also surprised that so little effort is put into analysing the views you express. You justify your cheating as a last resort and post how you disagree with those that use cheating solely as a means to hit n' run, whilst appearing to take no responsibility for the fact that it is the clients you design and the website you are staff on that allows those same people to do what they do.
You say you only cheat when you have to and therefore are a
 
Giving him a warm welcome is beyond me and I was actually shocked to see he was posting here openly without staff interfering. As his nick has the name (most of it) of his forum in it that's a bit of a double standard considering what happened with BCC back in the day,
Assuming we didn't interfere as soon as he registered is wrong. You haven't been around here much lately, but everyone who noticed anon, knows he got an infraction the moment he started posting.
Now, we knew there wouldn't be any consensus towards his figure or actions, but here we don't care on what he did outside, we care what he does here. FST isn't the internet cops, unlike some sites who try to act as such (clearly, I'm not talking about yours).
Moving forward, now that this is clear. His posts haven't ever been promoting his site or actions, nor trying to motivate someone to go to the "darkside" or giving advise. The moment he does that, he knows things change immediately. But as he is a clever guy, I'm sure he won't do such a mistake.

The welcome part, yeah, I noticed some members seemed to know him quite well :eyebrows: And the moment he was considered a "genius", I was sure we're both thinking the same.
And I never heard about that BCC place. :huh:
 
Yes, but then again...

And even if I left cheating right now, I'd still be banned (if found) for what I've done in the past, and also no one would believe me (although I don't need them to) - you saw a post by someone else on this board: "there's no reformed ratio cheater, since cheating is addicting" :rolleyes:

I don't wanna irritate you by my comments, but just think about what I said. :)

You aren't irritating me. As a matter of fact, I like the way you're laying things out.
 
I have already replied to that on my other post.

Also have no interest in a forum that teaches members to cheat trackers and their staff!

I do not want to know ANY methods, ways to do it... Not interested.

Since you don't cheat, I find that logical :rolleyes:

Why risk a account foing that when one can survive by following the rules?

Already replied, too.

(It sounds nice when put like that, right?)

Faking your stats I assume increasing your buffer and userclass which would give you privileges on some sites to ask for invites so you may have not traded. You just show them crazy buffered proofs.

I have only taken 1-2 invites from trackers' PU forums, since doing that links your accounts - get banned at one tracker, and you'll probably get banned at the other, too. Something I don't want to happen.

I don't fake huge ratios just for bling, there's no prize for that. Actually, as a cheater it's better to aim for low ratios and not stand out.

Relaxed about ratios, not cheating....

Exactly. That's 100% what I meant. I'm glad you noticed it.
 
Good luck with that. I have been extra-careful not to leave any information of me on the Internet ever since I got a 128Kbit line for my first computer (an AMD K6-2) back in the day. You won't even find a picture of me.

Giving him a warm welcome is beyond me and I was actually shocked to see he was posting here openly without staff interfering.

Take away the infraction which disabled my privileges I got five minutes after posting and yes, the staff didn't interfere. :rolleyes:

As his nick has the name (most of it) of his forum in it that's a bit of a double standard considering what happened with BCC back in the day

I don't know what BCC is or stands for either, but I wouldn't say appending a three-letter acronym to my nickname is including most of my forum's full name. Google it and you'll find me, yes. But I'm not the only person this applies for.

Mate, I'd say anon does it for fun. Correct me if I'm wrong but it's a hobby for him just like torrenting or PC's in general. He likes coding modded clients and enjoys being the enemy of every staffer out there.

Yes, making, triple-checking, and RARing up every mod to see if it works correctly is a lot of fun. I did learn a lot of things about the BitTorrent protocol and program modding in general doing it, though.

And I don't particularly enjoy "being the enemy of every staffer out there". I have a lot of respect for some of them, actually. I guess it just happens.

And @ anon don't think no one noticed you ignore the question about being staff at a tracker ;)

I must have missed that one, so here it goes:
You probably confused me with someone using a nickname that's very similar to mine, and indeed is tracker staff. I don't know why Melvin started the rumor I'm admin on two trackers if that's where you got this "info", but sorry to disappoint you, I'm not.

And he admits, he is addicted to it. For whatever reason? Is foolish in my mind.

I never said I was addicted to cheating. I did say that even if I dropped it, I'd be banned for my past if I was ever found. I only quoted someone saying that cheating was addicting. Reread my post carefully.

Moving forward, now that this is clear. His posts haven't ever been promoting his site or actions, nor trying to motivate someone to go to the "darkside" or giving advise. The moment he does that, he knows things change immediately. But as he is a clever guy, I'm sure he won't do such a mistake.

You got that right. I'm not here to encourage or promote cheating, so I guess it'll be a nice stay.
 
First of all: I don't have access to the invite areas, so I can't check what's going on that thread and make my own judgement. Sorry about that.



Call it hinting if you will, but I'm not even mentioning names of the members/staff from my board other than mine (which yes, is almost the same I'm using here), or cheating mods/tools. The most "sensitive" thing I have posted is part of the URL for the thread on SB-I where people explained why they cheat, and their points of view on that, as well as trading, etc. I remember I also said something like "we're first for a lot of 'how to cheat on (tracker)' search queries", which is an undeniable truth, as pointed out by that FSF article on "ratio hacking". My intention wasn't to have more people cheat on trackers, but show how a Google search can lead you to how to do so, just as for almost everything else.

Being curious I did as he said and googled it, this took me straight to a thread entitled something along the lines of ' Can I use cheat client ABC to cheat at ('elite' hard to seed at) tracker XYZ.' ...

If it's the same tracker I'm thinking of right now, on my eyes it deserved all the cheating it got, but let's take my personal point of view apart. Assuming you've read my other post, you'll already know what I think of people that cheat because they can or think it's cool to flash 10TB in a few minutes. So I'll save my keyboard some service life and won't type the same over and over again. Not to mention trackers where you may have such an uploaded amount, but zero invites unless you upload content, donate, win a contest, etc.

They have giveaway threads on Anons sites too

There are only two threads, one of which is locked (as well as all the others on its same section, since we implemented a new invites area you don't immediately have access to upon registering).

but unlike the thread that you highlighted were the guy seems to want to invite 'good' users, the criteria on his site seem to be simply that the invitees know how to cheat without getting caught.

Either that you don't cheat or do it correctly, yes. It sounds pretty sensible to me considering that on some trackers you face the consequences if your invitee is caught cheating.

Cheating clients that allow you to climb user classes and produce invites whilst at the same time allowing you not to become embroiled in the actual act of pirating would seem on the surface to be a bit of a godsend for these agencies. This to me seems logical, but I may have completely missed an obvious flaw in this argument, however I can't see one. I would think therefore that someone like Anon who, from what I have read, designs some of these cheat clients and then makes them available to anyone that wants them is a far greater threat to tracker security than someone giving away a few invites in a giveaway thread.

Have you checked the leaked MediaDefender source code? They had created some of the most advanced cheating/leeching clients and tools before I even knew what a private tracker was. They would be able to cheat their way to higher userclasses and invites even if SB-I (or any other cheating board) didn't exist.

By the way, my name's "anon", not "Anon".
 
anon-sbi, I truly think you are a nice person, but you need to have morals in this world, which means this simply: cheating is immoral and unethical. I know someone from another hard to seed tracker who built his ratio by uploading stuff with his 16 KB/sec uploading speed. So, why didn't you ever think about uploading your own stuff to a tracker? I believe that with your 20 KB/sec uploading speed, you can survive on any tracker without cheating. Believe me, it's good to have morals in this world.
 
What do you want me to upload? Most of the trackers I'm on have pretty much everything. And those where I actually had the intention of giving a hand with content would take that as a selfish offer to gain advancement if they ever found out who I am (a particular site only gives invites after a certain amount of uploaded torrents).

Believe me, it's good to have morals in this world.

You think I don't have any because I use cheat clients on private trackers instead of uploading to keep my ratio up and be able to illegally download stuff... I got the idea, but give me a break.
