Did you guys really, really uploaded a torrent for real to become a PU? Is there no way around it?
Well its fine not to cheat for that uploaded torrent. No problem at all. The problem is with the exposure that comes about with the upload. When anyone click on the torrent detail page they would be able to see the uploader's Nick and for my case even though set to paranoiac level 5 but still they will wonder where does all those uploads come from when this fella never downloaded or leech a single torrent before. Then they start looking at points per hour and I can say bye bye to my account.
So, no more low profile for me if I upload a torrent. That's my problem.
That means no PU = no invite..... ahrr.... used the wrong strategy in the first place. Should have uploaded the torrent first and then wait until after 4 weeks is up or after the torrent has no more leecher/became old, and then slowly use bonus pts cheating... Hmmm.... for all you new guys who gotten your new account, do take my advice to cheat in a sequential manner as stated. Its more low profile cheating...
It is possible. Ask a certain Mod if unsure
But yeah, uploading a torrent is fairly simple (just make sure your upload complies with all rules) and shouldn't bring too much attention to you. Otherwise I'd be banned already, not having snatched all the HD stuff I "seeded" to get bonus points.

You'll have to make it to PU first before you can proceed with the transaction of exchanging BP for invite.

I would certainly hope so (about the part on bringing too much attention). What to do now now that I have done the opposite first.
from my experience , PtP mods are very relaxed and helpful . you should not have any problems even if you bring attention to your account from uploading . they are not What.CD who will investigate your account like Scotland Yard if you upload a torrent .
Well, how can they know if you didn't just Force Re-Check on files you downloaded from somewhere else?
So, just leeching with Serenity, or faking to 100% without tracker tracing it wouldn't be such a problem?
So, just continuing to seed something on a regular client shouldn't get any attention.
Do they check visited sites, history, cache, cookies?
