    True that. In celebration of What's 2nd birthday, the first person to post in this thread responses to the following three questions will receive an invite from me.

    1) Why do private trackers enforce ratio requirements?
    2) What is a transcode, and why do music trackers stab you in the face if you upload one?
    3) Blue, purple, or blurple?

    1) To stop freeleechers and keep torrents active.
    2) Transcoding is the process of converting one compressed audio format to another, and I would guess that music trackers stab you in the face because of the loss of quality.
    3) blurple.

    DO I WIN?

    YES! thanks for the heads up. I am trying to build up a nice buffer before I download much. I am at
    * Up: 6.48 GB
    * Down: 212.72 MB
    * Ratio: 31.17
    at the moment, and with all this free leeching will hopefully see that rise. I can't seem to up very fast, but with like 30 different albums I'm sure it will add up.

    jumping on freeleeches ill never listen to ftw!

    2) Transcoding is the process of converting one compressed audio format to another, and I would guess that music trackers stab you in the face because of the loss of quality.

    should include that transcoding down (like flac to mp3) is fine, but transcoding up is frowned upon and anyone doing such a thing should be stabbed in the face with a flaming penis.

    oh wow, I didnt read about the new ratio system earlier, but damn it does look like its going to fix the issue of grabbing shit and then no one else ever grabbing it again and you keeping it open forever because you WANT to seed, but it's not you're fault you arent

    I think I know the answer to this already but, is it possible for anyone to send me an invite? I had access to the site before and I had a good ratio but I hadn't logged on in about a week and a half and they deleted my account. :/ I always leave my torrents running unless I'm playing something online that requires me to turn them off, but I really do seed all the time

    WTB invite, I actually have CDs and whatnot to upload plus I really need what.cd to find shit that's nowhere else on the free-interwebbernets.

    Depending how into it I get I may look into getting a seedbox with a roommate.

    edit: pm me and we can discuss it.
