The REAL reason we're all here:

The original concept of sharing seems to have gotten lost over time, you got a CD/DVD/BluRay/whatever and you want to share it with lot's of other peeps, you make it into a torrent and put it up there...other peeps are doing the same thing..so everybody get's something they want without stretching their finances...right ?...good idea or what ?
If the idea had stayed where it was in the beginning, the MPAA and the RIAA may have even overlooked the torrent world for a flash in the pan...sadly, this didnt happen, the reason ? personalities.
Poeple, with all their woes and insecurities started using the torrent world and torrent sites as killing grounds for their hate/opinions and spite. This got torrent sites noticed big time, millions of people all over the world causing mayhem against other people they either didnt know or had no idea who they were, if that isnt insecure I dont know what is.
However, torrent site owners also saw the advantages of this trend, and figured why not make a forum or two for this exchange of ideas and maybe some help lines too, great idea, and it worked, it's still working today......but, as in all things good, there are those who just have to spoil it for others...which is why some trusty members of various torrent sites were asked to moderate the forums, that was the beginning. Some mods were good, some were awful, but eventually a good compromise was reached and things settled down to what we have today.
I said this before, but i'll say it again, the Rules are for everybody, if you got a problem with the rules, either ask or log out. It's the Bosses house, the Bosses rules. We already lost one complete forum, how long before we lose another ?.
What about fun you ask !...what's fun ?...whats funny here isnt funny there, and the line between funny and sarcastic is almost invisible, your idea of 'fun' probably isnt funny anway. So to finish this diatribe, those who want to have 'fun' need to re-read the first paragraph here and do what another member of staff has already said...scroll to the top of the page, log out and dont come back.
Me done..

It seems you were drunk while reading and writing your foolish opinion, ET is still the best. I would agree that it was fun around a year ago when I joined (in 2009 December) but that fun lead to increase of abusing and disrespecting members, changes were needed to be made and changes were done and am happy, ET has the best staff faculty and great system of working, if you don't like the place what the heck your doing here, just leave it, seems that ET has become a pain in your ass so better leave the place (a friendly advice from my side) other than this very good views of BuleLady and I would totally agree with her and also pay my respect to her.

And people's personalitites is what brought attention to the torrent world. what a bunch of gibberish. it had nothing to do with loss in revenue or anything? or the fact that sites such as ET are all over the place. type the word torrent and what your looking for on google search, and you get tons of torrents sites. that must be due to all the personalities.
What attracted me to ET? Was the fun and peoples personalities. The stuff you did not see on other torrent sites....
I'm not getting back into this again but today's ET you have to adjust your personality before you log in. or just don't like log in at all.
Again thanks to all staff members for checking torrents and keeping them clean. Have a nice day  | |

Howdy Dirk, been awhile...
My post is relevant to ALL torrent sites, not just ET, and I havnt mentioned anything about present admin on ET, I quote..
Some mods were good, some were awful, but eventually a good compromise was reached and things settled down to what we have today.
unquote..
You see, some peeps will read the post and see it for what it is, the gradual rise of torrent sites over the years....other's will pick out their fav part to comment on...which in fact is taking the entire post out of context...no-where have I mentioned any particular torrent site, nor any mod.
The entire post is a truthful statement of fact as I see it.
