Külföldi torrent oldalak FeedTheNet | FTN Rutines

It only takes a few to ruin it for everyone.
For those of you too impatient to wait for me (and the others involved) to secure the projects involved in making this site better, this post is for you.

I work my ass off to try and figure out ideas and coordinate with others on things to make this site better. However I'm badgered daily by people who assume that I just sit on my ass and stare at the wall. It's kind of funny really, I work a full time job (including weekends), am a full time student, yet I still bust my ass to find time to provide a FREE website to people whom I don't even know without getting anything in return except the respect from a very small amount of people on here. Those very few people are the reason I stay up until 3am most nights to work on this site, knowing that I have to wake up at 7am that same morning.

Now don't get me wrong, I don't mind staying up late and getting very little sleep so I can participate on the site I helped develop. I love this site and am very proud to be a part of it. The problem however is that some people (you know who you are) believe that I should just say fuck it to everything else and spend all day every day working on FTN. That I should just quit my job (or get fired for lack of, which by the way would result in me not having a place to live and then you wouldn't even have FTN for me to work on), screw off school (thus effectively throwing away my future) and focus on nothing but a website.

I remember when I first started torrenting. I was grateful just to have free shit that I couldn't (and still cant) afford on a regular basis. Back then pretimes, special features, none of that mattered. It was all about respect and loyalty and being able to get things you'd normally have to pay an overpriced fee for.

If you guys wan't transparency, I'll give it. However, expect that to come with a lot of consequences (refer to my post I linked to above.)
If you guys want quick changes, fine by me. However expect half-assed modifications that will most likely bloat the site, slow it down, or just plain break on a regular basis.

I'll give you exactly what you want, this is a site that I helped develop with the intentions of pleasing you after all.


Now I fully expect a lot of you to be upset at me for your resulting actions. I also expect a lot of you to apologize and try to pretend that this can all be fixed since you now know all the secrets that have been going on behind closed doors. However what's done is done. Pat yourselves on the back.



Now that I'm done with that rant and unfortunate news, this isn't the end of the world. We are bringing back the auto upload box this week so uploads will at least be more consistant again.

I just want to clarify that I'm by no means giving up or stopping the progress of this site. I'm simply going to try to appease the masses in a more efficient manner at the cost of quality. Once things settle down and this feels less like a job and more like the fun it used to be, I'm sure my creative/evolutionary/fun side will show it's face again. I'm sure more opportunities will come our way in the future (although I doubt we'll see a 40TB SAN handed to us again). It's just going to take a lot of time to make sure that security of certain projects is kept to make those involved safe, and unfortunately in the torrent world that's unacceptable.
