    Okay, in demonstration for how this invite stuff is supposed to work, I took DrewP's oink invite a few months ago, and now I also have (7) invites to hand out myself.

    Since DrewP will handle the first 6 posters, I'll invite numbers 7-13. But I stress that it's vitally important that you keep your ratio up and don't get kicked off. Because that prevents me from getting any more invites. So please don't respond if you don't know what you're doing.




    P.S. I also have some "b i t m e t v" invites, but I'm going to be extremely choosy about them, since it might be the hardest torrent site to keep your ratio up that I've ever been on. And they have some of the toughest rules around.

    So as a bonus if I give you an oink invite and you make power user, then I'll give you a "b i t m e t v" one too.

    I maintain a 1.5 ratio on Demonoid, so I'm a good bet to do the same on oink and bitemetv.

    Please send an invite to tattooedgroove at gmail dot com.

    Thanks!!

    I'd wager that it's the best tv torrent site on the net. The speeds are incredible, and there's a lot of variety. This is because there are a bunch of members that have huge pipes (with some guys going so far as to seed off high-speed servers). They carry the newest swarms, so everyone else has to scramble by leaving their seeds open constantly, and by uploading new material.

    Since you invited me to oink, I'd gladly hand you an invite.

    And let me know where you're leaving off in terms of these invites, and I'll take care of the ones after.

    Anyone here pay monthly for their P2P stuff like with giganews newsgroups? What's your experience?

    I only care about downloading books so what would be a great place to download besides the usual stuff like emule and the torrent sites like demonoid/mininova? These sites have great collections but the DL speeds are a little slow and sometimes they just don't have the books.

    Thanks for the invite DP. m_cable if you have any bit me invites I'll take one if you will give me one. I have been looking for a lot of tv shows myself that aren't currently on DVD.

    Could someone with access to bitmetv tell me if there are any Newsradio torrents currently being seeded?

    I’ve been searching ages for that show.

    Like I said regarding bitme tv, I'm very wary about handing those out. That site is extremely tight on ratios and it's not easy to keep it up, even for those experienced with bit torrent in general. I'd like to do more than take people's word for it.

    But I would accept people that are able to make power user on Oink. That would show that you've better prepared for maintaining a ratio on a private site. So if any of you have made "power user" on oink, then let me know and I'll give you a bitme tv invite.

    As for Newsradio, I did see seeds for seasons 1-4. It's not very many, but the speeds would probably be okay, since most people seed like crazy to maintain their ratios. There's not too much hit and run because people can't really afford it.

    And about the oink invites. I've still got 4 left. But like I said, please be serious about it. And only reply if you've got some experience with torrents and know what you're doing.
