    hmmm wheelmods is old, bou 5years+ is anything older than that.
    i know that wheelmods was up and running before then got captured then afta it re-opned a with same users, but was named different, thats y is so hard to get in, they dnt wna get caught again.

    ps. does anybody know how long this torrent industry has been going on for?
    the 1st time i was torrenting it was on the public tracker cald supernova i think, but then it got shutdown, n that was about 6years bak now. but im sure the torrent industry was well before that.

    one of the first bittorrent tracker ever was suprnova. it was founded by an slovenian teenager in 2002. bittorrent was brand new and nobody was talking about private and public trackers. kazaa and gnutella were popular. i remember uploading my first cd rips and divx movies on suprnova. it was shut down by authorities in 2004 along with lokitorrents which was quite popular as well. elitetorrents followed not much later.

    when it comes to private trackers my earliest memories are torrentbits and filelist.

    p.s. what's wrong with your spelling? is it supposed to be slang? i mean you are british, aren't you?

    lololol, yeah im British, sorry, yeah it supposed to be slang, i use it all the time on msn etc, its just become a habit now, lol.


    ....i always thought that torrenting was going way back in the mid-90s but then again less people had internet then and probably nobody knew that they could achieve something like the torrent industry that we have today, also people had very slow connections bak then anyway so this peer to peer would not be popular as it is today, but warez is a fast moving way to download these days as it becomes more popular, obly thing is to get the full speeds guarenteed you have to pay for an account, that may keep torrents ahead, also people like the idea of a tracker being rare etc etc, so so that mayb be another reason to keep the torrent industry ontop.

    First introduced during 2001. My recollection is from 2002, so I missed the early days completely.
