hi people,
i’m only a few months into the usenet world. o far i’m using paid retention and public NZB indexers, but i keep hearing that invite-only sites (like DrunkenSlug) offer much better results and retention.
i’m not asking anyone to break subreddit rules by handing out invites here.
instead, i’d really like to learn:
- how did u earn or discover your invite?
- what behaviours or red flags should a newcomer (like me) avoid so they don’t get instantly banned when they finally join?
- what can I do as a newbie to contribute positively to this community?
- are there communities or channels you’d recommend for learning more and proving myself useful?
if sharing detailed steps publicly is frowned upon, pls feel free to point me at resources or DM if that’s allowed. and if this post breaks any subreddit policies, please let me know and i’ll immediatelyremove it.
thanks for any advice you can spare.
