I know how many people really wanna get in to TorrentBytes, but their Signup has been closed for a smaller eternity.

But now the news starting to come.

Here's some pieces of a mail that has been sent to all the members:


Firstly, As site is coming up for it's second birthday, the domain name is up for renewal.
Unfortunately, negotiations for control of the domain have failed and we have been unable to secure it,
therefore we no longer have control of the torrentbytes.net domain name.
This is what has been causing all the recent DNS issues, for which we can only apologise again.
So, over the next week or so we will ask you to update your bookmarks. New Domain to be announced....
We know... it's a bit of knock, but that's just the way it has to be.
Thirdly, Continuing the coding theme, signups will open as soon as the new domain is open and DNS is updated,
and we are confident that the new features will stand up to the influx of new members.
The coders have been working really hard to make these things happen.
We know that progress has been slow, but we are hoping that things will happen a little faster from now on.

Open signup for new members. :)


Next, It's a new year, a new domain, a new site, with new membersIn the while, go to TorrentBytes (http://Torrentbytes.net) and enjoy their wonerful Xmas-theme.

The Domain will run out December 26. So it will maybe just be a white page.

TB will be open for sign ups as far as I have read in there forums as for how many I am not sure and also that .info site info might be false since I have'nt heard anything menitoned to that kind of info on TBY.

I heard that some trackers blocked the isreal ips because alot of them were caught cheating.

RainRoofer
12-03-2006, 06:38 PM
Yes, most of you guys cheat, so deal with consequences.

It would not be fair to ban the whole of Israel.:lol: It is better to ban those who were actually caught cheating.:cool:

Although since i am not Israeli it does not affect me.

umm i hate to disagree. the majority of israeli users do cheat... only makes sense to ban the entire country. if it were me, i'd ban egypt and the other surrounding countries as well. oh and also poland because i heard they're full of cheaters too :angel_not

gamer4eva
12-03-2006, 11:04 PM
Damn you lets ban belgium aswell why not the world and let torrents cease to exist....:lol: although when i seed or dl i actually am connecting to israel peers so i dont think that these bans are on all sites.

12-03-2006, 11:09 PM
yeah, some sites don't have israel banned. i really don't mind myself because whenever i see them, which isn't very often, i put them in my custom .il block list for pg2

TB.net will remain as the owner is back and will be setting things straight. So I guess there will be a new domain, but the current one stays.

inman
12-04-2006, 12:31 PM
Does anyone know the new URL for torrentbytes? I cant access torrentbytes.net.

Also what about torrentbytes.info? I didnt try my login as I am not sure it is a scam to harvest my password. But I tried out the password recover by mail feature and they did send me a mail to reset my password. When I tried a junk mail id, it said that mail id didnt exist in their database.

So torrentbytes.info might be real, after all. Can someone confirm?

menlyman
12-04-2006, 03:34 PM
Now this is very rude of you guys to say that (banning all israel is right). i Am and my friend aren't cheating and believe me there are more many Israeli pepole that aren't cheating!! that just not fair to ban all the country it suppose to be who cheat gets banned and not fuckin banning all Israel .... shame

mel5582
12-04-2006, 04:36 PM
TB.info is real.. I'm accessing TB through it. TB.net can't be accessed currently due to DNS issues. Should be okay in 24 hours or so..

You can also access it through IP: 62.212.84.226

inman
12-04-2006, 04:38 PM
Thanks mel5582. I logged in thru .info

Dr. Lecter
12-04-2006, 04:50 PM
ok, in the start the admins started blocking specific ip's, but after they saw that most cheaters using the same ip range they blocked all of it.
I'm not talking only about Israel, many ip ranges r blocked 'cause of several cheaters who give their county a bad reputation.
if u r a good member & u play by the rules (seed, seed & seed) u can always talk to one of the mods & ask them to open your ip (only if u have a static one ofcourse) or can even donate a couple of $$. this will defently open the doors 4 u.

I don't trust the .info.

Anyone else confirm that its in fact the real deal?

mel5582
12-04-2006, 05:01 PM
It's as real as you can get Zenican. The only fake deal you will see is TB.org
I'm logged into .info and everything's there.. my PMs, my ratio and all. Good luck.

Cool, I'll give it a shot. The only thing that kept me from doing it was the fact that the Logo wasn't there. It just says logo at the top. At least for me

Alien5
12-04-2006, 05:19 PM
yeah i cant see any imgs from the site only the type - but at least it works.

mel5582
12-04-2006, 05:19 PM
Hahaha.. not just the logo. The smilies and all the regular category icons are broken. You can always try accessing the page through the DNS IP.. Perhaps that's the safest way if you have any doubts about the .info.. I later accessed through IP and changed my password again.. but then again, .info is real.. just in case I thought but, oh well lol.

12-05-2006, 12:31 AM
.info is not real! I got this info from a moderator on TBY so I hope you guys all proceed with caution as it could be just a scam to get your info.

And yes the domain will remain the same since the owner has posted on the forums about transffering it to one of the admins and the site is working find for me right now.

mel5582
12-05-2006, 03:34 AM
.info is their backup domain. But since .net is accessible (please update your hosts file), I don't see any point in using it.

Yeah your right it could be a scam to obtain user and pass but to completely override the account would they not need to know the pass to email so they could change it.:lol:

It is a good one scam perhaps but has flaws.:01:
