If there are any readers who still haven’t got an account (surely you should have got one by now, if you’ve been reading FILEnetworks) on popular General/0Day tracker TorrentLeech, here is yet another chance to get one. TL is currently holding a free invites promotion for existing users of FileList tracker (filelist.org). This is different from the previous invite giveaways that involved TL’s sponsor Travian – this time around you are not required to register for a Travian account. All you need to do is to get on their invites channel and give them the E-mail address to send the invite to. Is this giveaway limited to FileList users as it’s claimed to be? Not really. Basically anyone can PM their E-mail on the channel and get invited for free.

TorrentLeech

Invites channel topic pretty much explains everything you need to do:

FOR FILELIST USERS! GRAB YOUR INVITE NOW! PM _w00t_ WITH YOUR EMAIL ADRESS O-N-L-Y AND THE INVITE WILL BE AUTO-SENT TO YOU.NOTE THAT THE BOT WILL BAN YOU FROM THE #invites CHANNEL AFTER THAT,TO PREVENT DOUBLE ACCS.HAVE FUN!!PLEASE DO NOT IDLE HERE!

It looks like the invites are being sent out by a bot (an IRC script). This could be the reason why everyone (not just FileList users) are able to obtain invites instantly. The giveaway has been going on for at least 2 days now. However, note that it could end any time, without warning (TL giveaways usually tend to stop abruptly). If you need step by step instructions for the entire process, continue reading:

  1. Join the TorrentLeech invites IRC channel. Invites channel details are as follows:
    Server: irc.torrentleech.org
    Port: 7011
    Channel: #invites
    Direct Link: irc://irc.torrentleech.org:7011/invites
    New to IRC? Click here to download mIRC and read a brief tutorial.
  2. Once on the channel, PM _w00t_ with the E-mail address you need the invite sent to. Make sure your message contains only the E-mail address – don’t send unnecessary junk such as ‘hi please send me an invite to……’ etc. PM’ing in most irc clients can be done by double clicking on the desired username - (on mIRC, list of users currently in channel is displayed on the right panel)
  3. If the giveaway is still active, you will instantly be invited– thereafter you will be banned from the invites IRC. This is done to prevent flooding. You will only get one chance so don’t screw it up.

As usual, don’t try to create dupe (multiple) accounts on the tracker. This will eventually result in you losing all your accounts, not just the duplicates.

Note: If you are not an existing FileList member and still request for an invite, chance are high that you will get it. However note that this is sort of ‘exploiting the system’ as the giveaway is really intended for FileList users - proceed at your own risk.

    I read you quite often,but i think what you just posted is simply not cool!Other times they announce it on their main page,so people can join,but why you do it like that now?FileList.org site died,and TL is giving a new home to those guys,with your move,and when they will realize that anyone can join(since your blog is very popular and lot of people are reading it),they will just close the door.

    My 2 cents though!

    Tasoula,
    You are entitled to have your opinion. But let us explain our side of the story.
    This artilce clearly mentions the giveaway is for FileList users (even the title says it). We have mentioned the following at the end of this article:

    "Note: If you are not an existing FileList member and still request for an invite, chance are high that you will get it. However note that this is sort of ‘exploiting the system’ as the giveaway is really intended for FileList users - proceed at your own risk. "

    Of all the several dozen invite forums and sites that had already posted this info (some of which are more popular than this blog), we are probably the only ones that even mentioned FileList.

    IMHO if TL wanted to close it down due to too much publicity they would have done it 2 days ago, when the news was posted in almost every file sharing forum out there.

    By the way - you cannot sign up for Travian and get an invite safely if you aren't a FL user (checked with staff). It's really meant only for FL members so requesting invites is not encouraged if you aren't one, as we have said before.

  8. LRRP // 8/22/2009 11:44:00 AM  

    Thanks for the info, as usual.

    To that guy being a dickass about this,its pretty much commonsense.If TL wanted this to be exclusive to filelist members they would either have found a way to do it at their forums or have something like the sign up link that hdbits members use to register for sdbits without an invite.
    Am all for access and if there are people out there who aren't yet on TL i don't see why you should be bitter now that they have a chance at membership.I think you should read this blog more often,TL doesn't run out of invites!

    Agreed. Even TL's hardware is capable of handling much more users than they have right now. If i remember correctly they could support 30k more users with the current setup.

    for filelist invitations enter http://jaisdg.mybrute.com . it's a game and after the registration you will becoma a recrut in the game and who plays more i will give them some invitations, but you have to be a little patients because often the limit of 100.000 users is reached :)
