It has been a while since we posted a news on the site and that is due to my computer still not working. Right now I took my time to get to a computer and write up this news, since I thought it was quite important.
You all remember the old SuprNova.org, right? And most of you were very disappointed when you heard that SuprNova.org was never going to return in its old form. Well, this fact will not change. But I am happy to announce that another site is going to open using the old SuprNova.org code, with some bugs fixed to make it faster.
I will try to explain how all of this happened, in a short story. A very good friend of mine who is very good with PHP and scripting has always wanted to run a website like SuprNova.org and he tried making few torrent websites (which I will not name), but he never really managed to get the user base, simply because he lacked the designer skills. Then he asked me if he could use the design of SuprNova.org and we made a deal. Since I know that he will really try his best to keep the site up running and will work towards making his site better, we agreed that he will pay for the hosting of my web servers (current SuprNova.org) for 3 months.
So about two months ago, he got the source code of the old SuprNova.org and has modified the code so that it runs faster and does not take so much computer resources, his site is up and running. The new site is called, NewNova.org and it looks exactly like the old SuprNova.org only with a new ownership.
I would like to point out that I will have nothing to do with the new website, I might come visit their forums once their are up and running but that is about it. I know that this person is going to do all that he can to keep the site running and to make a nice community.
This person asked me to not name him, since he wants to be anonymous (as much as that is possible on the Internet), but I can say that he is quite known in the P2P community and that he has always done nothing but positive things for the whole P2P world.
well kinda
