well, sorry about the pms,gees.and i live in canada, but tv airs same as us anyways here. and you do know that maybe less than 1% of azerbaijan (?) probably knows english, same with kuwait.i'm just saying encouraging a few big english tv from us is not the same as promoting internet tv as a whole, believe it or not, some people do speak other languages, and watch other stuff, but whatever. and i guess i was right about tvfan, his kind of behaviour is exactly what earns you respect and promotion here, with the personal attacks and swearing and all. seriously, about rapidshare, i mean you really hammered me for talking about this sites "legal" distribution of content, so why do you not encourage another medium of distributing content?hypocritical,eh?. |

????.gees, how much brains does this site really have.and the rules confirmed my suspicions, they only want people to come here so they can praise them instead for offering the content.not extacly good reason to ban others for promoting other sites. |

reasons why we do not allow rapid share: 1) this is a bittorrent community, not a http download source. 2) many fake rapid share links were being spammed in the forums. 3) rapidshare does not continue the spread of tv life the same as bittorrent does. 4) of course we want people to continue to come to our site, we would have to be bloody idiots not to have that mentality. 5) we run the site, we have the rules. now, what pretty "argument" would you like to continue with? |

#5 seems like it should be good enough on it's own. if rodgarse needs it any clearer, try this :- "because we want it that way. now fuck off" that being said - i'm curious as to why everyone is dancing around the main reason, and seem unwilling to say it directly :- due to the many and various peculiarities and pedantries of litigation and legal precedent, direct hyper-text links to copyrighted media are much more easily subject to local juristriction cease and desist, and site shutdown orders. bit-torrent indexing sites much less so, although we all know that in reality there is little effective difference. so there's your real reason in a nutshell - no direct links because we don't want to make it easy for the lawyers to get the site shut down. |

well thank god someone brought this thread back to its original post, things really got off topic. i was just pointing out how these torrents are on public trackers, so technically poeple don't have to come here to get the torrents, alot do just for the community aspect, but not mandatory. there probably not going to change anything, but if it was a semi-private site that you could only download from here and required minimum ratios, dl speed and registered users would grow alot. torrentleech, example, also only has scene releases and prvt tracker, and probably the same tv torrents on here upld there are much faster with its minm ratio.withough the invite system and generalized torrents, this site could mirror that. |

the public trackers we use are only usable by us (try and submit your own torrent to one of the trackers and it will fail). we will never implement a ratio system, nor make people require to sign up to get our torrents. the reason why this website exists is so people have a reliable website to download the tv shows we help distribute, go to mininova and search for eztv and i'm sure you will find at least 1 fake in every 2 torrents we release (i'm sure this figure is even higher) thanks for your suggestions, but any of the things you stated will never be implemented here. |

the only reason the private scene release sites are less popular is because there invite only.but certainly, with the dl speeds, they would otherwise be much more popular cause i think people would be willing to seed if it meant much faster dl speeds. it wouldn't really exclude anyone if they just had to maintain a ratio, it would benefit everyone. |

really?.well, i guess having a whole open and public philosophy would make it seem flawed, but i think it is perfectly logical. |
