January Updates Episode II


As you can see by the Enabled User count, we have reenabled inactivity pruning. Make sure to login at least once every 2 months if you are <PU and a non-donor!

The January news continues:

We have created two new user classes!
Torrent King - 5TB Upload, 500 Uploads, >24 Weeks on site, and Ratio > 1.05.
Custom Class - 10TB Upload, 1000 Uploads, >36 Weeks on site, and Ratio > 1.05.

Some of the permissions for both of these classes:

Personal Collection featured on your user page
Ability to post polls in the forums
Can double post in the forums
No limit on number of search results
No time limit on log search results


Currently we have no TKs (as most of those who would qualify are Legend, VIP, or Staff), but we do have a couple of users who are very close. As I am sure most of you are aware, we do have one outstanding user who has surpassed the Torrent King requirements already and has the honor of being granted the first Custom Class. Nuked now has the self-chosen class of "Critic"!

A few months ago, we promised changes to the invites system, and they have come. As of now, Power Users will only receive 1 invite per month (down from 2), and will be capped at a maximum of 2 invites at any given time. Elites will continue to receive 2 invites per month and will be capped at 4. However, Elites+ may continue to send invites even when we have reached the user cap. As a reminder, only PU+ may purchase invites with bonus points, and donors will continue to receive 1 invite for their donation, regardless of user class.

Speaking of the user cap, we are aware that we are getting close to 25,000 users on site. We are at 24,891 as of the writing of this post. However, since the transition to RC2, we have no longer been disabling for inactivity (not logging in to the site). 2,653 users & members (who are not donors) have not logged in within the past 2 months. In 5 days, we will once again begin disabling users and members for inactivity, which is defined as not logging in at least once every two months. Power Users+ and Donors are immune. If you have any friends who qualify in this category, please contact them and tell them to log in to the site in order to keep their account from being disabled in 5 days.

And finally, a quick plug to the Crime Genre Uploading Contest. We are just 16 torrents away from 24 hr freeleech on newly uploaded crime movies, and there are still over 3,000,000 bonus points up for grabs for top uploaders! Check the scoreboard to the right of this post and the thread in the contest forum for more information.

Coming soon: Episode III of the January Updates. Spoiler: rules updates (finally!)
