    Its nothing coz they are going to open signups for those who weren't registered before 03/27 and probably award them a couple of free gigs...and i really doubt whether they care about their reputation being damaged coz they probably dont have any other than the biff with TC...so no biggie really!

    Go join TC if you want to see a tracker done right.

    It took TehConnection , like what , six months or more??? to move to gazelle ?

    Compare this :
    TehConnection has ~16000 users > ~17000 peers
    PassThePopcorn has ~13000 users > ~36000 peers
    Also,the number of torrents are "allmost " similar , PtP having with ~1000 torrents more that TC.

    All from the above is said from the perspective of a user.

    TC is just the tracker overhyped with lots of connections from its staff , bla bla bla , while PassThePopcorn is just a usual tracker who tries to make a good place for its members.

    So, from my point of view, PtP is ahead of TC and you are just a fan boy wannabe for TC who got disabled or something similar at PtP.

    // Have a nice life.

    It's not the first time something like this happen to a tracker, at least they had a two weeks old backup to fall back.

    No big deal in comparison to Waffles recently stolen database!

    TC i remember the speeds sucked so bad that i cudnt max out even a lowly 1mbps connection ..
    Do the backups determine the quality of the content offered by the site ? As long as they keep quality stuff and their ratio systems work fine the users shudnt be complaining ..
    How come i didnt see u post in the waffles DB hacked thread if u were so concerned abt sites maintaining their DB ..
    Your just another low life tracker basher at best

    Are you suggesting that oddball09 is in fact Qlix?
