I found the problem: My ISP in Spain can't just go in. I have ask like several friends around Spain using the same ISP and noone can just enter ThePlace.bz. Don't know if theplace.bz have just banned one with same ISP (because "Telefonica" that is how its called the ISP, uses a proxy with same IP for everyone but different inside IPs due to the proxy). I also found that another friend that used another ISP with cable (instead of DSL) he could go in, so I expect TPZ is still online...
I had like a 5 ratio, (~100gb uploaded, Power User), never used another tracker (since now that I had to find replacement ones), and went regularly in the site to check torrents and even post in the forums... there was no reason to ban me so there was the problem: ISP problems.
If any SysOp/Admin read this check if you have banned the whole rima-TDE ISP so all spanish using Telefonica can get back. I will ask my provider if there is any problem with DSLAM, but think that it doesnt have anything to do with...

actually u got disabled and ip range banned.. i m sure u know y so no point in discussing this further.. we base our dicisions on facts always, so we have proof it was u that broke the only rule we really care about (apart from cheating)
in light of this, i wouldnt even bother trying.... u ll just waste ur time.. sry
thnxs, unlike many staff members, i dont consider myself above the level of my users but equal... every decesion we make in tp/tv is based on what the users want as a whole primaraly and what we think is best for the site... the site is run by democracy since it belongs to the users in the first place.. their the ones that started it and the ones that make tp/tv what it is... not us nor our torrents - our role is simply to ensure that our rules arent broken, the site runs smoothly code-wise and hardware-wise, that the managing of the funds is done properly (distributing it for server costs and buying new products for the site) and that there is respect and trust amongst our members... this is our mentality and how we choose to operate..
most trackers these days do it for the $ or cause the sysop has a powertrip cause prob he was bullied when he was a kid... we have no such insecurities as staff members and are doing this cause we think that our members lives are actually improving from being members to our community, and to be part of something like that, well thats just a feeling that no word can fully describe to u... the most torrent sites usually manage to do, is either establish themseves as THE place to get a specific genre of data (movies, games , music, etc) or as a top site with fights on who gets what first... the problem with that mentality is that everything is oriented around the material (ie the torrents) that the site can offer. for us.. its about improving the quality and lifestyle of the ppl involved with us, and in that process we as staff gain as well... the ppl come first, then the torrents... offcoures the irony is that logically, ud think that once a member manages to reach the level he wants to be in either seduction (tp) or business (tv) they d abandon the site.. but actually what is happening is tha the veteran users in turn help the newer members walk through their issues... i believe that in the members head, it will always remain as smt important in their lives rather than just another torrent site that u get movies or music from... which i guess explains why ppl actually stick around even when they dont need us anymore..
