God..

This torrentauction site is a disgrace to all Private Torrent Trackers.

This is literally giving anyone access to private torrent sites if they are willing to pay.

i hope that site gets taken down.

as #8 said, there is a very good chance that people buying invites will get caught and banned, and hence waste their money.

and as #4 said, it’s so obvious that the different posts saying that it’s a great idea/site are posted by the same person. what a sleaze.

avoid the site at all costs

I am co-owner of a large sought after private tracker. While this might sound like a great idea to a lot of people I can’t stress enough - don’t do it. Contrary to what most people think, we DO NOT condone selling invites or invite trading. We are private for a lot of very good reasons and try very hard to watch who we allow into our site.
Staff from many different sites work together to monitor a hell of a lot of trading sites/boards and i’ve lost count of the amount of people we have banned for trading. Don’t think you will just end up getting banned from the one tracker, staff at private trackers do talk and swap traders and cheaters details. Get banned from my site and you’ll find yourself banned from over 40 others. Fact.

I think this is a horrible idea. It goes against the whole idea of “sharing”. Honestly letting just anyone(including music/movie industry hacks) join private sites is a real lack of security foresight. Private sites are not that appealing from from a proactive security standpoint. Most if not all will not work effectively from behind proxies or the use of VPN’s. My couple bucks a month goes toward my VPN account. I have my own private site which consists of my favorite movie rental establishment and DVD Shrink. I am not against private bittorrent sites as they fill a niche, but this “auction your invite” is a slippery slope indeed.

TPB+VPN FTW!

Why don’t you just use the FUNFILE that I posted above? I posted the reg code, and tested it earlier this evening - it worked!

Well considering one of them is the person who submitted the article…

I’m actually looking at the Funfile Account for 10 US not Euro

haha its so obvious the first 3 posts are the same person or person (s) affiliated with each other. Whoever pays 10 euros for a bittorrent account is an idiot

Yeah, and most of them are very affordable. For the price of 2 BlockBuster rentals, you get great access to some much-coveted private BitTorrent sites.
