It will come back, that's for sure...but will probably take 1-3 weeks.

thats good to hear but how will older members get back or we have to start from scratch and get an invite ?

may be how RTS did it? send an email and invite to PU+ or users fulfiling certain criteria...but that won't probably happen with OiNK. I think OiNK would get back how demonoid did...everything how it was.

And YES, i am willing to (i am more than willing to) go back when they come back.

NEVER -- if anyone remembers what happened when teh old Tbits shut its doors ... they came back but it si not the same ... I feel it will be the same @ the new oinks ... it may come back but it wont be the same ...

as for the servers did they not have 3-4 massive servers? i member reading about them in thier forums but forget the exact stats (i just kinda skimmed it) were they not like quad core or somethin like that ....

I imagine the DB is backed up since they run a back up on the site everyday @ 8am local time ... they shut the site down for 10 minutes to run the backup ... so i imagine the backup was stored offsite every few weeks ... and even if they did nto have the backups, i imagine the coder kept a copy of the code somewere else so the basic code should be in place somewere ...

Not in this life - span, I'm afraid...Not with this name, not with this huge amount of content. Emergence of some clones is most probable, however.

agreed. They have had the guy in custody for Christ's sake. If It did come back up, it would not be under the administration of the previous staff, and probably not with the consent of the previous staff either.

I think it's possible that they'll come back but not for a few months, it all depends I suppose it's hard to speculate at this early stage.

I really dont no, in my country we have the same problem with the biggest tracker... and 2 or 3 months later a new tracker under a other name is born...

But Oink its simply to big... maybe one day we can see something like oink online again.
