In just the last two years, FearNoPeer (FNP) has accumulated 200,000 active torrents and over 1.2 million peers. These statistics have astonished us, given FNP's age, and they have provided a strong community, a high retention rate, and a variety of content to choose from, allowing you to curate your own archives and libraries.

We've fostered a generous community and easy starting-grounds, for example, if you need help, even just a little question, or made a mistake when downloading, ask for some help. If it's just a few bonus points, explaining your situation, or seeking a way to gain recourse and maintain a positive account. We're a team at FNP, and we don't want to see you run away deshelveed!

As you rank up, you'll also gain access to the invite forum, which can open doors to many other trackers. Of course, we hope you'll continue to call FNP home.

Our goal remains the same as day one: to curate, deliver, and retain high-quality movies and TV content quickly while also general tracker content (music, applications, and games) to our home, with many other content types you will have the pleasure of exploring!

If you're interested in joining, whether you're a newcomer to torrenting or a veteran looking for a new atmosphere with a different vibe, all are welcome to apply.

Here's to many more years ahead! 🚀

Our celebratory gift: We'll be hosting a 1-week global freeleech event, featuring double uploads on all torrents, big and small, as well as special gifts, such as bonus points, akin to a sweepstakes or raffle, throughout the event.

"Everyone" can apply but I can't apply due to being "New to the game" hence having no "proofs" 🙃

I think some logic was missed here

[–] FearNP@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

We’re only asking link to your profile on another tracker and a screenshot as proof, and your application will simply be accepted or denied. If you don’t have proof, you can create an image saying “I am a new user looking to learn” and give a clear reason why you’d like to join.

The application page is admittedly confusing, particularly the proofs section.

[–] Fiery@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 4 days ago

The fact that "new to the game" is an option and they still ask two proofs made me LOL

[–] gtrcoi@programming.dev 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I have no idea what it's asking. Think I'll pass on whatever this is.

Hello, We’re only asking link to your profile on another tracker and a screenshot as proof, and your application will simply be accepted or denied. If you don’t have proof, you can create an image saying “I am a new user looking to learn” and give a clear reason why you’d like to join.

The proof is a screenshot from another tracker (if you use one). Please include a link to your profile so we can verify it.

If you’re new, you might only have one tracker — and that’s fine. If not, just link your profile here. What you write about why you’d like to join is also important.

Thank you — it’s not meant to confuse you.

If you’re new, you might only have one tracker

Ah, I see we have different ideas of the definition of “new”

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I understand the desire to vet people, but I feel like this all greatly reduces a person's anonymity. Asking for an email, 2 different other profiles, plus hosted screenshots which may accidentally contain metadata.

Additionally, there are questions of how secure is this form? What security measures are being taken with this data at rest? So on.

Idk, this seems a bit much. Most open registrations just ask for an email, which can be a burner.

Unfortunately, it has become standard practice for trackers to take applications seriously. We’re only asking link to your profile on another tracker and a screenshot as proof, and your application will simply be accepted or denied. If you don’t have proof, you can create an image saying “I am a new user looking to learn” and give a clear reason why you’d like to join.

If open signups were possible, we’d gladly offer them — and in fact, we’ve had them several times over the past two years. But now we need to be more careful, since we’ve had issues with problematic users signing up, including account sellers. Sorry for any inconvenience, and thank you for your understanding.
