I would bet some people ask for the invite not even knowing what they're being invited to. Hard to believe, I know. I got an invite last week (thks ObliviousToMyself) and I'm loving it. Now I'm working on my ratio. Oh, and I have 2 invites as well thanks to my donation to the site. Anyone still looking for one? Send me a PM. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
parisisstale Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Could someone explain the recent rule changes? I appreciate my recent invite, but haven't had the time at home to spend on the site. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can read them - it's best if you study that stuff before you jump in there anyhow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Synthesizer Patel Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 It's ok to break the rules as long as nobody complains. I did this recently with a Lavender Diamond/Becky Stark album I uploaded/seeded/whatever you call it because the bit rate was below 192 and someone pointed this out to me, but said ultimately the quality was still good and saw no reason to complain. A bunch of other people downloaded it and didn't complain either, I guess it just depends if some jobs worth gets annoyed about the fact that the free music you are giving them doesn't fit entirely into the rules or not. Basically, don't get too hung up on the rules because as long as you don't try and fuck people over with giving them shit just to improve your share ratio you'll probably never be breaking the rules anyway.

Analogman Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Unless otherwise requested, I only do FLAC rips. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Narziss Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 i'm always bummed when something i want shows up in FLAC format only. it's rare because I have all the live shows I could ever want and hardly download them but it sucks when it's an album. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spawn's dad Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 agreed. i hate burning ratio for something I'm just going to convert to an iPod friendly format Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I will actually only download FLAC - unless I have no other choice. The recent rule changes have quite a bit about FLAC uploads - so I am guessing they are more behind FLAC now. I have been invited to join a few private FLAC torrent sites many times in the last month. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OOO Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I upload in FLAC only because Its nicer for my ratio to upload a bigger file. I pretty much only download higher bitrate MP3's. In other words, I'm selfish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The recent rule changes have quite a bit about FLAC uploads - so I am guessing they are more behind FLAC now. I have been invited to join a few private FLAC torrent sites many times in the last month. I only really use oink or any of these peer to peers to sample an album and make a decision about buying it or not, or hearing it before the release date, so FLAC is just a waste of time to me. I suppose it depends on what you use oink for though, I think if I was getting an album or piece of music that I knew wasn't commercially available or hard to find then I'd want the best quality.

Spawn's dad Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 how does one get to be a power user without sending cash? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jules Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 how does one get to be a power user without sending cash? Must have been be a member for at least 2 weeks, have uploaded at least 10GB and have a ratio at or above 1.05.The promotion is automatic when these conditions are met. Note that you will be automatically demoted fromthis status if your ratio drops below 0.95 at any time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
