what happened to UK-T

[apextwin146]

Oh yeah i forgot it had a bunch of internal encoders which made the content there one of a kind :dry:
Wrong. It'd be nice if posts like yours could be moderated.

I've added some of you whom I recognized based on username and/or avatar. You'll be helped shortly.

If there is anybody I missed, feel free to PM me and I'll take care of you if I remember who you were. :)

As far as the site coming back, it's almost certainly not coming back.
Moderated? Seriously? When one of the Users itself clarified what happened to the tracker still it stretches to 12 Pages and you say my post should be moderated? I dont care who you are but this is a bloddy public forum .. There is no invite required for this and other crap that Users like you propogate .. So kindly take that High Handed shit elsewhere where they give a crap !!!.. Dont dictate what should/nt be done here

Too bad you have to be a member for 30 days (or something?) before you can pm. I doubt you would remember me anyway :( I guess there was a good reason for shutting down the site, and I hope all the staff (and everyone else) will be ok :)

Do you have a email i can contact you with?

With in the email i will state my un and avatar used on the site.

Please enlighten me as to what you will be sorely missing?

Appreciation of a tracker is a very personal thing. It's not because you are searching some things in particular in a tracker (like those packs you mention), that others are looking for the same thing.

That's what is always been the reasoning here ... this or that tracker is 'bad' because people expect to much from it. I see nothing wrong with people who are part of a tracker for 4 years and got attached to it. They prolly made a lot of friends and were loyal seeders.

The problem lies within the fact the perseption of people outside of UK-T is entirely different than the perseption people within UK-T (except for the level-hunters off course).

I notice a lot of people that are stranded because they never cared for any other tracker or were in no way affected by any kind of 'tracker-hype' that has been the result of their selected recruitment.

That hype was created by the people willing ot get in, not by the actual members.

its not high handed shit and you are in the minority, people do give a shit..

when a long established site goes down regardless if they were in it or not,the changes affect us all and you need to understand that but you wont because all your doing right now is thinking of a way to diss this comment and that is what made ukt differnt.

it was respect for other users and cyber hardmen were not tolerated.

qft. I dislike that point of view, when tracker is proclaimed 'overrated' simply because some idiots spend months or years searching, and then it just looks 'not worthy', no one asked them to.

[OMFGBBQADV8]

IMHO,a lot of the membership had known each other from various other places before hand, so we are looking at a small group of people who had been keeping the original COMMUNITY aspect of the torrent world going whilst other sites around the world were failing on keeping community & were more into what they as individuals could get from the site.

What people here miss is the ability to talk openly & freely about anything & everything without havning to deal with Trolls, people with over inflated egos, there were no 'self important'people, all members were equal, all would help their fellow members in any & every way thay they could.

It had a feeling of family, true friendships were made over time & anybody who was welcomed into the membership instantly felt as is they could also post freely without being jumped on, mocked, abused.

You see, nowadays most forums thrive on their trolls, thanks to having great staffing & a great membership trolling & other such time wasting abuse had been eradicated a long long time ago.

Perhaps this is why some people posting in this thread are finding it hard to deal with the more acidic tongued posters.

For a majority of the membership the forums came first & foremost.

Until you have been a member of such a site where respect is shown, knowledge is shared & you knew as much about your fellow members as you did your own RL family members... well until you have experienced such a community it would indeed be hard to understand the grief that a majority feel, the feeling of weirdness when we see out & out trolling going on, when we see people posting here who have no clue as to what was behind the closed doors, who are posting speculative comments about a very close knit community of friends that they have no idea about & getting it oh so wrong....

Well, I am trying to keep it short as usual but alas how can somebody try to explain fully without having their words read out of context.. well you end up having to write slightly more than the other person right?

End of the day, the site is missed by all that were members, those who have no clue (& boy are there a good number posting in this thread) just make us feel homesick for the place we called home, the place that was void of all this trash talking, mean spirited claptrap being grabbed out of thin air.

I miss the site as much as those here who are posting here that were true members.
There are a few people posting in this thread that within the first 5 words prove themselves to be 'wannabe ex-members'...
I suppose that just shows how great the site was, even when gone people still fabricate about having been a member.

<3 moi... };-)>

We will find a place to have our movie discussion club, our fun games and other items that made us such a unique community...

[Bad-Day]

I notice a lot of people that are stranded because they never cared for any other tracker or were in no way affected by any kind of 'tracker-hype' that has been the result of their selected recruitment.

That hype was created by the people willing ot get in, not by the actual members.

Exactly the same thing, that happen, on Fl recently. Amazing members.

I dont think so i mentioned packs anywhere in my post . Its not that i am against appreciation for a tracker or any other such thing ..
My point is that if indeed it was a good community and u made friends n all then cant that community survive without the tracker ... Does End of a tracker mean End of the community? If No then stop this BS which has stretched 26 pages .. I mean there were other trackers as well that have closed which operated within the same time frame .. Threads dealing with those were not even 4 pages long ...
Anyways my question is
Does End of a tracker mean End of the community associated with it?

[pretend]

Anyways my question is

Does mean for one and doesn't for another one. If some place was one-stop point of particular community for years, any attempt to recover it at different place after dismiss will trow out part of members. And probably these guys are rather contributing, but will skip it.
But any attempt does worth another part.

[Ags]

The way things were done, yes... to a degree. There was a sense of anonymity, however a deep feeling of loyalty that brought people together there. For most, it wasn't just a tracker, but a place to commune (like many other forums about). If you were to close any forum down that had members lasting 4yrs or so, there definitely is a big void left. There will always be something else to give the time to, but doesn't mean its the same or that it will capture the atmosphere of a golden time passed.

lol you are joking right?I mean you don't really mean to say that you are inviting them on another tracker based on nickname and avatar recognition,are you?lmfao :lol:

I'd instantanuosly disable your invite privileges if that's the kind of recruitment you've been doing :P,even demonoid wouldn't allow that lol.
Seriously,am i like the only who sees how badly this whole thing is being handled?
I mean lets be honest here.

As far as the site coming back, it's almost certainly not coming back.
That's like the 10th time i've seen a contradictory statement from him and others.Are you guys even in touch?

That's a good question....just what IS going on ?

Anyone ? :frusty:

[apathyps]

we're all sorta in limbo right now. just waiting for some official word. squizzle posted a couple pages back saying he'd announce something shortly.

there are definitely some real members in this thread whose avatars i recognize. i was a lurker mostly though, but a lurker who can prove he was a member all the same. anyone who was a member there should be able to prove that they were one way or another.

we just have to wait and see what really is going on, or find out what happened at the very least.

checkin this thread daily...

[Something Else]

I'd advise you all not to take much of what is posted seriously. squizzle is the only one i've seen posting that can actually say anything with any certainty.

[LubTheStaringCat]

So Wheelmods Is gone for good, Pity... It's sad to see any tracker go down, but that Is the way with things.
Nothong lasts forever.

I can see the point of It being a great community, coming together talking, making new friends.
Over a long period people get accustomed to things of It's like, but change happens. But as fast as Wheelmods went down It would have put my head Into a spin, known It was the only tracker I'd ever been on.

But as I already said, before It got edited...If most of the exwheelies didn't have the foresight to look beyond Wheelmods, then that's your problem.
Just a query tho: Of all the exwheelies who signed up for FST In the last few days, why didn't you look or signup for a few other trackers at least, I see the point of community, coming together.
Or Is It just the case no one foreseen this coming.

There Is umpteen trackers out there for exwheelies, some with a couple of torrents others with hundreds of thousands. The BitTorrent Sites Open for Signup thread, It's what that's there for.

[CigarMan]

Yep....knowing what happened would be a start.

I can only think of 3 reasons to close a successful site;
1) It was forcibly shut down by an agency
2) It became too dangerous to leave it open (security compromised)
3) It wasn't funding itself anymore

The first is scary, the second is hopefully temporary and the third is fixable too.

I can see some opinions are "stop crying....move on....it's only a tracker".
You will never see an opinion like that from anyone who was actually a member and you'll never fully appreciate why unless you were a member.

One small example....how many trackers have you ever seen where there was permanent free leech and the ratio system was practically gone because the userbase was just that good at sharing ?

If you could describe your torrenting utopia....without even knowing you would be describing uk-t.

[ztx651]

mean you don't really mean to say that you are inviting them on another tracker based on nickname and avatar recognition,are you?

Consider that you had to be a member to be able to recognise the usernames and avatars of the displaced members in the first place.




:P,even demonoid wouldn't allow that lol.

Actually it would, the invite system on Demonoid is intended for use in a different way, it is simply to lessen the drain on resources that open registration takes.

[apextwin146]

If its just about a forum and community then y cant anyone just create a god damn forum and give access to all the emo community members .. this way the community that you guys have been used to for 4 fucking glorious years will be saved rite?
People who actually are apart of community dont let it die off just because thier favourite meeting place isnt there anymore .. you can still use Gtalk,MSN etc for communicating with them if you really want to .. So please stop with all those RIP messages and will i get invited to FSC posts

[ztx651]

If it annoys you so much you could just ignore this thread right? As this is where most ex-wheelies posts are confined or would that be far too easy?

Gutted that its gone as i had been a member for over 4 years and was the first torrent place i used.

Oh so now its ok for UK-T members to gather here and talk about the tracker since its dead .. No need for secrecy now brothers ... What happened to all the bullshit like "Please dont talk about this tracker in public forums" ?
That just shows what a bunch of community driven folks you peeps responding in this thread really are ... If it were that all even the majority of the members in this tracker were community driven there would have been no need of a thread like this ..
Its the glaring hypocrisy thats annoying me ..

The site was taken down without prior warning. Info could be obtained at the IRC channel in the few days after it. You could be invited to another sought after place by showing up in the channel. The channel info was publicised. The channel was taken down. Some people at the site didn't use IRC but were active forumers (I can relate to that, btw).

You make out the rest. It is actually as simple as that. :yup:

[Reg]

Well, this is an incredibly sad day for me. Just stumbled on this thread, tough to realize that UKT is gone for good.

I joined up back when EliteTorrents went down, private invite from the castaway forums they had on PornBits for the months after the raid. Never really had a need for any other tracker once I was in. Had a few RL friends who begged me to get them invites for years, sad to see that, right after we were given them, the site went down.

If anyone knows of a place where ex-wheelers are gathering, please let me know. I can validate my membership via PayPal receipts... bought too damn many Christmas raffle tickets, still couldn't win anything. :(

And to any staffers who might be reading - thanks for everything! Especially for putting up with my weekly requests of obscure soundtracks.

Sad day indeed, totally gutted, i have checked a few days and just hopped it was glitch. Hopefully it'll be like the old site when that when down and get put somewhere with the same guys:)

If you have any substantiated information that might clear up the situation for the (ex-)members of the site, and, as you've repeatedly hinted, is crucial to their personal security, why don't you just share it here where everyone can see it?

That is if you actually have anything worthwhile saying (which quite frankly, I'm beginning to seriously doubt at this stage).

[Rart]

I'm not a part of UKT so I may not fully understand the circumstances but honestly, if I were looking for answers I would just sit tight and wait. Squizzle has already stated not to trust outside sources and that sez is "talking out his ass" (I think it's pretty obvious he's joking...), and that he would provide information soon. Theres no point in trying to garner information from unreliable sources that may be doing nothing more than trying to steal information from you.

Hey pro267, I'll give you one guess who this poem by Jessy Randall may refer to?

Jessy Randall

One Day, The Ass-Talker Stopped Talking Out of His Ass

His mother said, My darling, I can hardly believe it. His father
said, What? What did you say? His sister said It's only temporary. His
brother said Could you repeat that? And so the ass-talker apologized
again. I was wrong, he said. I was only guessing. I never really knew
the answer.

[That1Guy]

I dont think sez is talking out of his ass, I heard the same thing as he did from his "source" (or the source of his source). But I have also heard some things that makes me really think it's BS.

The fact that the site doesnt have a big message telling you it was shut down is a good thing.. Be patient in time im sure some details will come out.

[rag011]

He, since everyone and his dog from wheelmods is over here I'll add my 2 cents and Hi! to all.

Suprised at the haters out there for Uk-T (and others - Jeez "the box.bz" is a very good site of its type)
guess that "community thing" doesn't go over for everyone.

Since many were there from the start 4 years+ and knew others from Elite torrents before what 18months and before that it was ?Phoenix Torrents or something then its OK to be sad...

FST look like a good place too tho, anyway flame on....

[Zaxx]

...before that it was ?Phoenix Torrents or something then its OK to be sad...

I'll never get over Phoenix-Torrents...I was staff there when admin voluntarily closed the doors on 188,000 users. It was a few days after Suprnova got taken down and the torrent world was still very much on edge to say the least. PT was the last genuine forum based p2p (Invision PB I think) + tracker that I can recall...you remember...each release was a separate thread with all kinds of deets and screenshots, TY's, and with actual discussions about the rls, the a/v quality, opinions and all sorts.
The way P2P used to be....:sadwalk:

(/me sighs remembering the good ol dayz...:mushy:)

[FreakinWeasel]

Hawkies World was the last forum based tracker I was on. All they really did was to embed the torrent link into a forum post, whereas more modern trackers have a custom browse page for all torrent links.

I believe UK-T is still around and just change URL.
well, they wrote a topic on UK-T that everyone should spam in FST that UK-T is gone and miss them...(my opinion).

In this thread are many members with 1post and this are "EX" UK-T members..seems a little bit strange.

honestly I can't understand why so many people miss a tracker. they miss only the community.....

I hope I am true otherwise if UK-T is gone maybe the most traders will be normal again. :happy:

PT was the last genuine forum based p2p (Invision PB I think) + tracker that I can recall...you remember...each release was a separate thread with all kinds of deets and screenshots, TY's, and with actual discussions about the rls, the a/v quality, opinions and all sorts.
The way P2P used to be....:sadwalk:

Yup...thats back when kvcd recodes were popular. Code9 was the resident kvcd group at PT...they started acting up thinking they were something more until we told em to leave. Then we started our own house kvcd team that I was on while modding.
And before all that, the PT lineage can be traced back to Digital Update (DU). ;)

I have seen few nice forum-based trackers, with rather high activity (and surprisingly no threads like 'rate that ass', only smart discussions). The one I seen (but unfortunately couldn't be a member for specific reasons) was few years old, having more than 5000 members, it's activity leaves most of community-based trackers aside. And google won't say a word on it's name :pinch:

I guess they are either hiding very good, or just not being so popular.

lets c what comes out of uk-t, as oink--> what+waffles, two great trackers.

Your site isn't online coz of these guys.

Three months ago I wouldn't have had any issues with letting you all in on the rest but I think time,bans and experience eventually changes people.
Being a newswire is good(information is power after all,aint it?) but in some circles,its highly frowned upon and I wouldn't be suprised if that's the reason why ein2005 is refusing to talk.
BT has its owners if you didn't know and I just don't want this to turn into another djgrr all over again.

I was staff on there :) my first proper torrent site I registered on back in 2003 after finding it through a site called lickmytaint. Those were the days lol

Ahhh Digital Update and Code9, it was Code9 who inspired me to take up encoding away back then and start up TUS :P who remembers the tit for tat fighting between HW,DU and PT. I got banned from PT just because I was staff on HW. Ahhhhhh the memories lol

[Andyvalver]

Anymore news yet guys? Iv had to find an alterative for now where they dont have freeleech lol :-(

[NippleCake]

Does mean for one and doesn't for another one. If some place was one-stop point of particular community for years, any attempt to recover it at different place after dismiss will trow out part of members. And probably these guys are rather contributing, but will skip it.
But any attempt does worth another part.

I will pretend that i understood what you said ..


The way things were done, yes... to a degree. There was a sense of anonymity, however a deep feeling of loyalty that brought people together there. For most, it wasn't just a tracker, but a place to commune (like many other forums about). If you were to close any forum down that had members lasting 4yrs or so, there definitely is a big void left. There will always be something else to give the time to, but doesn't mean its the same or that it will capture the atmosphere of a golden time passed.
If its just about a forum and community then y cant anyone just create a god damn forum and give access to all the emo community members .. this way the community that you guys have been used to for 4 fucking glorious years will be saved rite?
People who actually are apart of community dont let it die off just because thier favourite meeting place isnt there anymore .. you can still use Gtalk,MSN etc for communicating with them if you really want to .. So please stop with all those RIP messages and will i get invited to FSC posts


You sir, are a douche. You think the feeling and spirit of UKT can just be cloned to any other site? you are throughly mistaken. This site was made up of a good portion of users who never went through the "levels" and the "epenis" and the "l33tness", there were people who were only on ukt, and had been, for a good 4 years. What i dont think you understand is how many people there were IRL friends with other users. They werent just people that went into a forum and played "<insert spam topic here>" no, they actually had a forum that was filled with fun yet discussions that were actually interesting. The site had people on there so experienced and it was a joy to read their experiences and learn from them.

What really annoys me is when some closed-minded tool such as yourself who cannot see other people's points of view, assumes anything, without any foundation, evidence, or firsthand experience at all. I suggest you stop being such an incosiderate and quite frankly rude and bitchy person and let these people remember what the site was. And of course people are staying in contact with each other, and no, its not just through FSC, so, once again, that is another matter concerned where you have no idea what you are talking about.

Good Day

bang bang boom!

sorry mate, ain't nobody arguing with that...you are as right as they get...and i wasn't even a uk-t member

my condolences to all of you who lost such a unique tracker...i can already think of a few where i'd feel the same way (infact there's one which i've been a member of since 04 - it doesn't offer me the same feeling as what yall probably got at uk-t but I do get the gist of how yall are feeling atm)

good luck with getting it all back :)

well i rarely post in this section of fst , just come here for lulz.

feel sry for members of uk T, though i was not member there, but i can relate to what you guys are going through.

for others you can never understand what it feels to be a part of community , it is not just a tracker, it becomes your 2nd home. iam or rather was a active member of such a community plus tracker since 04 , after such long time it is just not place from where you download stuff, it is place where you have seen fellow members go through school to collage and getting married:P where there is not just x mas thread or a new years eve thread but you get text messages or even calls also from round the world;)

half the retards posting stupid things here were trying for last 2 years to get in there , but for members it is not that 'high level' thingy , they were or are just cut off from the rest off he BT world cause it is just not needed you always had your home site and some ppl just won't ever understand it.

my advice to UK T members set up private forum for members only , it is not that tough so you guys can gather at one place till things bounce back.

all the best

Thats what i said earlier on in this thread. All us ex wheelmod members should join or create our own forum somehow. Im not good at that kind of stuff. Not being able to send pm's on here is making it difficult to communicate and get this sort of thing sorted.

Regular posters and trolls here are more polite about UKt situation. Had this been other less known tracker, this thread would have been swamped with even worst posts.

uk-t is secret (personally I respect to that), so why users or maintanace at there, get in to this topic and chit chat. There must be some other forum for only uk-t members. Even If it does not exist you can build up a free one and invite who you want to there. Thats organizing. It maybe gone doesnt change the fact that this uk-t members needs proper care. All I am saying is once there was a community and maybe some of you counted that community as family. Whatever the end result is why dont you handle this topic more professionally. As a start you could have dropped a mail to all uk-t users (I mean all not some) and tell them. Do not talk about it at other forums, and never write anything elsewhere, even it gets on your nerves. Something is missing in this picture. Since most users are clueless of whats going on is showing us that they lost shepherd of their herd. The audience here is purely public. If this topic is here ofcourse all ppl will write it or voyeur it. All this is not helping to that trackers secrecy.

[LubTheStaringCat]

What wrong with exwheelies being members of FST, after all this Is a forum. Well last time I looked anyways.
I hope they stick around, It's gave FST a little something that's been missing for sometime.
It's hard to put Into words, but life

I've mentioned that mate but as said before. It's hard to communicate when we can't pm on here yet. Also, I'm sure people don't want to put their email on the forum.

I hope someone does sort a forum out for us lot, someone who know more about it.

who said that we are something special?????? read the whole thread, no one with wheels said so.
we are just a small bunch of people who had a long good run together and miss the site.
have been there for many years and it was always my fav site cause it was small dynamic and friendly.

btw. add me too.:w00t:

Well there is a reason why the whole site is gone.If it was ok to congregate and chat,you would have at least had the forums and the various irc channels online for that.This is bigger than one person and I think its for the good of all that you guys focus your attention on other things other than the site.You had bad people in your midst and in all likelihood they'll just migrate with you to whatever site/forum somebody decides to start(and they may even be the ones to launch it)

I think that fsc has done a very honorable thing to take some of you in despite the risks involved and at least imo,its something that you guys should be very grateful of.

I know moving on is hard but I think accepting that what's done is done is probably one of the wisest decision anyone could make at such an instance otherwise you are bound to start making alot of silly mistakes.

P.S
You guys are awesome and I really do mean that.

[Funkin']

I don't really get why members of UK-T should think of themselves as something special.

The samething happened when OiNK went down. A bunch of us migrated to a memorial forum to complain, reminisce, or whatever. It's the samething that the wheel members are doing. Their beloved tracker went down and they miss it. It's a little frustrating when the one tracker you invested a lot of time in, made friends at, etc, goes down.

I don't see any harm in letting them have a thread(at a filesharing forum) so they can gather with each other and post whatever they need.

[Reg]

The amount of jealousy in this thread is astounding. Are people really that jaded from not getting an invite to a website over the years?

[MarshyTheKid]

I was a wheelmodder for 4-5 years(I actually can't remember. :p) Sad to see it go. I'm anxiously waiting for legit confirmed news. I didn't post much. And I lost my av! Which with a cartoon robot in BSDM getup. :p
I was also on OiNK too.

[123oldman]

I don't really get why members of UK-T should think of themselves as something special.

It's defo NOT about being this "something special" member crap which is thought of by some.
Mealy not having the "home" to return to,communicate like we've been able to for numerous yrs through the site in question.
Like others have quoted,when you've not had the need to visit other site's,then your vision of the "scene" is close to non existent.

Is that a bad thing?,or could you consider it being lucky enough to be involved on a site which catered for most things required?

If my sole reason for being there was using the tracker,without doubt I'd have been a member of many more various trackers rather than the one we're discussing.
Many members never used the tracker, only the forums.. This is why the sites missed so much.

What I will say, Being here is opening my eyes to the so called "scene", some of it I'm enjoying,other's not so..

Everyone has their right of thought,it's an open forum after all.

Once again, my bad.

[Atops]

The amount of jealousy in this thread is astounding. Are people really that jaded from not getting an invite to a website over the years?

There is another jealousy, an unspoken one. This is the jealousy of the old wheelies that did not get picked up in the first round of wherever everyone went.
Active and Known members of the site were extended invitations and the majority have left this thread. Those few invitees that remain show that they truly don't care about the politics behind the invitations. Thank you guys!
BUT, Those ex-wheelies that didn't get picked up are now just dangling in the breeze without a new home just hoping to get noticed. Sure they can join an open starter tracker, and many have/will, but this will be nothing but a disappointment to the years of service they are used to. These people are jealous and hurt because even though they didn't make a recognizable forum post every day, or chat actively in the IRC, they feel they were just as much a part of U*T as anyone else.

We understand every tracker's need to protect itself, but 99.9% of those left behind know that they are not a threat and wonder why they are thought of as such.


What I will say, Being here is opening my eyes to the so called "scene", some of it I'm enjoying,other's not so..


My eyes are open now too, but I don't like any of it. I wish I could go back to my tiny little bubble of ignorance. :(

What ex-wheelies can do in the absence of PM's is allow others to "Send message via email to *You*", the setting should be in your profile somewhere. Your email address will only be show to the recipient of the message.

this is the end for cloesd community =]

whom care? sorry im not sure if this whole topic was lost in translation to you but pretty much everyone from uk-t cares! just because poor little arabtorrent couldnt get in that site was obviously trash right? closed communitys are just silly as well, because lets face it, building up a great bunch of friends over 4/5 years like some of these guys did is so lame when you could just trade or get BT rep from doing Giveaways :rolleyes:


LOL at this entire thread. UK-t is not gone.

[That1Guy]

One thing you new members may want to do is set your profile to accept emails. I think it is done by:

Clicking on the user cp button in the top left of the screen
Then select "ecit options"
then about halfway down the page there is an option to "Receive Email from Other Members". after you have checked that, I think others can click on your name and they will have an option to email you.

Then at least you guys can contact each other. I cant guarantee you wont get ppl you dont know emailing you though :P

I think it works that way at least....

All you "old" members that keep bragging about how many friend you made In U-kt and how close you guys were were...Where are your friends now? How come your dearest friend Squizzle left you in the dirt without pointing you in the right direction??

Who knows for what reasons U-kt went down. What if they're in the verge of being caught and will have to give up every information they have. We are going to see then how much you "miss" Ukt and how long it will take for your "dear" friends to give your name and IP addresses up.

If I was in charge of a tight community and I had to close the site, I would inform my "dearest friends" first and help them instructions on which sites they could go to next.
I'd certainly not leave them like a fish without water.

P.s. Personally I believe that all you guys might be marked by the authorities at this point, and I'm afraid that any community that takes you in, is going to open problems for themselves.

[DMT]

Hey guys.

Seems to be lots of dodgy info on this thread

I can't PM so if Squizzle or any other Ukt member could mail me and fill me in with what's happening that would be great!

:dabs:

Thanks for constantly starting the oh so imminent flame wars on this forum albo da kid. I can always count on you to make this forum into a worse place for the rest of us.

Honestly, why do you always feel the need to dramatize everything in this forum into the worst possible tone in order to establish the most drama within the forum? Is it simply against your nature to productively add to a conversation without pissing off someone else in the process?

UKT, from what I gather, is a rather small and closed community. There is no need for authorities to attempt to bust such an insignificant site in the grand scheme of things. Why waste their time with UKT when they could be using their time far more productively trying to destroy sites such as TL or demonoid, or the other massive number of public trackers? Whether originating from the staff or the users, I feel like these kinds of rumors are unnecessary. Take it for what you will, but I severely doubt that the authorities would ever devote so much time to take down a tiny dot in the world of p2p.

[Albo Da Kid]

I'm being honest when I say when my intentions were not to troll.. Simply, I feel sympathy with the way these members were/are being treated.
4 years of faithfulness and trust, and this is what they get in return by their beloved site?

[pro267]

@Rart:
While the circumstances that led to the death of the site remain vague at this time, I would be careful making such assumptions (one way or the other) at this stage. Remember the previous incarnation of the same site did peak the interest of law enforcement agencies, and was taken down at the time.

@Albo:
Most of us have no idea what the real situation is. Blaming the staff for things and circumstances you're not fluent in is irresponsible at best. For once in your life, stop doing what you keep doing, which is making unsubstantiated assumptions and building complete theories on top of them.

A member of UK-T was caught selling DVDs and named UK-T as his source. I'm not guessing, this is directly from staff.

Assumptions or not, something's definitely wrong here. Just to be clear, I wasn't blaming the staff for the downfall of the site btw, but for the way they hadnled things with their members.

[Talkaboutfiles]

One thing you new members may want to do is set your profile to accept emails. I think it is done by:

Clicking on the user cp button in the top left of the screen
Then select "ecit options"
then about halfway down the page there is an option to "Receive Email from Other Members". after you have checked that, I think others can click on your name and they will have an option to email you.

Then at least you guys can contact each other. I cant guarantee you wont get ppl you dont know emailing you though :P

I think it works that way at least....

Thanks for the tut:)

btw..What a fukin idiot this guy. He was probably selling them in the street this retard.
The first thing I would have said when being asked where I downloaded the film from is

"I didn't download it sir. I bought them from a Chinese for 2$ a copy and I'm selling them for 5$ each."

"Tell us who the chinese lady is"

Answer: "I don't know sir. I met her in the train and haven't seen her since. This is my first time doing this"

Or if worse came to worst "I downloaded them from Mininova sir" Wtf they're gonna do? They know about Mininova already, and haven't been able to do anytihng about it.

The worst they could have done, was given him a fine.

[Benjamin]

Ah. I somehow believe the truth is somewhat larger than that, but then again i might just be assuming, you know?

Yea well that is coming directly from the UK-T staff, they say the DVD seller ruined it for everybody, and they were forced to shutdown. They won't reveal how they found out the guy was caught and named their site.

I question everything like you do, and no disrespect intended, but the UK-T staff are a bunch of nerds, not some mafia with internal police connections. How would they know somebody snitched on them?

[Albo Da Kid]

the UK-T staff are a bunch of nerds, not some mafia with internal police connections. How would they know somebody snitched on them?
Exactly. You make a very good point.

Do you think the guy went to them and apologized? "Hey guys I'm sorry but i got caught selling movies ans I snitched you out"

Or maybe they were warned by the police" Hi. We caught somebody that was selling pirate dvd's which came from your site.. We thought we'd let you know. Take care."

Or better yet they had an inside man in the Riaa

lol cmon but I don't buy this dvd selling excuse. Maybe it's what Sez said earlier that it might have somethign to do with those English fellas getitng a 3 year sentence each for piracy recently

It could be anything, but the dvd excuse is too small of a factor to shut the whole site down.

How come the dvd selling only became a problem recently? How come it wasnt a problem 2 years ago?

[wantonhero]

Considering the circumstances appear fairly dire, I don't need an explanation or an apology. The admins will have done well if they fragged the data and saved the rest of us the headache they are dealing with.

Silence is an excellent policy until things are sorted out.

p.s. Thanks to the FST regulars who tolerate us bum rushing your forums, there is some good info in here!

I'm Courious “Benjamin” how long have you known about the selling of the DVDs?
A few hours, a couple of days that sort of thing?

Thinking what “Albo Da Kid” said, just selling DVDs sound a little far fetched to me to shut down a torrent tracker.
But considering UK-T's demise, I would think members of UK-T's former staff would be members of FST already, and are no doubt watching this thread.
I doubt very much they will ever post or reveal them selves, Squizzle Is the only one I know of here at FST.
Putting out a story like the selling DVDs to try to appease all the former members of UK-T's curiosity on how UK-T really went down.

Just for selling DVDs I doubt that very much, you can only wait and watch?

I would consider the former members of UK-T are owed some type of explanation.

Now that's the spirit.



All you "old" members that keep bragging about how many friend you made In U-kt and how close you guys were were...Where are your friends now? How come your dearest friend Squizzle left you in the dirt without pointing you in the right direction??

Who knows for what reasons U-kt went down. What if they're in the verge of being caught and will have to give up every information they have. We are going to see then how much you "miss" Ukt and how long it will take for your "dear" friends to give your name and IP addresses up.

If I was in charge of a tight community and I had to close the site, I would inform my "dearest friends" first and help them instructions on which sites they could go to next.
I'd certainly not leave them like a fish without water.

P.s. Personally I believe that all you guys might be marked by the authorities at this point, and I'm afraid that any community that takes you in, is going to open problems for themselves.



:dabs:

Thanks for constantly starting the oh so imminent flame wars on this forum albo da kid. I can always count on you to make this forum into a worse place for the rest of us.

Honestly, why do you always feel the need to dramatize everything in this forum into the worst possible tone in order to establish the most drama within the forum? Is it simply against your nature to productively add to a conversation without pissing off someone else in the process?

UKT, from what I gather, is a rather small and closed community. There is no need for authorities to attempt to bust such an insignificant site in the grand scheme of things. Why waste their time with UKT when they could be using their time far more productively trying to destroy sites such as TL or demonoid, or the other massive number of public trackers? Whether originating from the staff or the users, I feel like these kinds of rumors are unnecessary. Take it for what you will, but I severely doubt that the authorities would ever devote so much time to take down a tiny dot in the world of p2p.

Easy on the assumptions till you have the

[Intr4ns1t]

At the end of the day, with the history behind wheelies, if the staff felt the circumstance was dire enough to scrub the site, I would have to say I'm glad for every member who's info was NOT made available by them taking that step. It's a sad day when an iconic site such as that gets taken offline, but better by the staff than the authorities.

Regarding all the bashing and naysaying about the strength of the community there, my god, if you were interacting with many of the same people for YEARS, wouldn't you feel a serious and dramatic sense of displacement over the loss of the platform for those interactions? I notice alot of people saying the staff are remiss in how they handled it, but all things point to it not being a delayed action. And were I in their boat and in fear of my freedom, you can sure as shit believe I'd be laying low as well.

And ironicly enough, it seems that many of those members who were "left to dangle" are in fact being pointed in the right direction, just not in this thread, so why think they are being ignored in all this? It's easy to postulate when faced with a lack of insight, but that doesn't make those postulations true.

If one thing should be taken from this, it's that staffing is not just a walk in the park and every person who staffs on a tracker in a non-torrenting friendly country puts their freedom on the line every day so that users can get all that free stuff they love so very much. All the bickering and competitivness pale in comparison to the real risk that those staffers work under everyday to try to give people a comfortable atmosphere to not have to worry about a letter from their isp. I think it's easy to forget that when the sky is blue and the sun is shining, but it does rain on occasion, and sometimes that can drown you if you are stuck staring at the sky with your mouth agape.

Sorry m8, I wasn't accusing you of anything. Sorry about that.

A simple tip hard drives are meant to store data, just because you delete something doesn't mean It's not still there.
It's just not showing up on the registry.

Over writing the hard drives with something, Clipart Is good for doing the job or some type of other shit like It,
to make sure there's no data fragments left on the drives.

I solute the UK-T staff, and my apologies for having spoke shite

On your first point. There friends are still there for most of them. I apologise that they dont all use multiple sites (god what noobs huh albo) so when their only site goes down, and you live all over the world, it can be hard to keep in contact.

Also i really do lol at your comment about squizzle (interesting how he is seen as the front man of ukt lol). he left no-one in the dirt. Sorry but do you t really think if there was a site threat then they would give time to tell everyone what to do? because that wouldnt make it obvious to whoever is causing the site shutdown now, would it?! It shows that ukt staff fucking care, many people take the lack of communication and sudden no-warnings shut down as a real bad sign, but the staff are doing it for everyone, they deleted the data for everyone, so no one has any "evidence" left behind. If they had taken time to organise this, then this security could have been comprimised. Also its expected thatstaff will be lying low, you expect them to just to flaunt around the internet and immedialty create a new site?

"Who knows for what reasons U-kt went down. What if they're in the verge of being caught and will have to give up every information they have"

Ahhh i see how that works, when everything was 100% wiped! makes so much sense (hmm this seems like one of thouse unfounded arguements yet again..)

"first and help them instructions on which sites they could go to next."
Instruct them? im sure they dont need instructions, word of mouth travels very quickly between friends, and i know it sounds hard albo, but others can actually take some self initiative.

And thats bullshit about members being marked by the authorities. Yet again another unsubstantiated claim, as you have absolutely no idea whats going on.

Please stop spreading this bullshit, no one wants to hear it.

[apathyps]

Ok, I cannot take anymore of the rumors being spread around. I've seen about 1 post from squizzle saying "wait for an announcement", and THAT is what I intend to wait for.

I didn't make it to FST, I have but 1 friend from UK-T who originally invited me that has given me a glimpse of hope.

To all the terrible contributors in this thread, please just go away and let us be.

Some of you really are cruel.

[Purple_Ice]

Wow this thread grew fast! Just checked it the other day and it was only at 17 pages! Good to see some familiar avatars/nicks etc.

I've read through this whole thread, the first good news of any kind seems to be on page 19/20 and some good bits and pieces after that. Unfortunately there is a lot of rumour and heresay too, not to mention the flaming and back and forths between some people (generally members and non-members).

I would love to see the site come back but, everyone's safety is more important. If everything had to be wiped then I guess it's for the best.

Thanks for everything over the years, if a new home is found please let me know, I'll be checking this thread regularly.

Cheers, PI

I can't speak for others, but being a member of UK-t since the fall of EliteTorrents sheltered us from this ongoing e-penis war over which torrent community is best. Goes to show that anyone on the internet will complain about anything given the proper forum and box to stand on.

Weeegee, add your email to your profile so i can add you :P lol

[kallieb]

Aside from the trolling and braggadocio there are two themes rolling out here:

1/ Loyal wheelies who want/need/feel that a bit of loyalty should come back by way of an explanation as to what/why it all happened that their fav site went poof.

2/ Regardless of reason or circumstance, what's gone is now gone and that with the loss of anything near and dear there is a grief and loss cycle we all go through. Whether it is as profound as the loss of a loved one, to something as mundane as a favourite TV show - our response to a loss inevitably follows a pattern: Shock, Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and finally Acceptance. The weight and presence of each element is diametrically related to the degree of importance and profundity of loss.

In regard to the first point, chances are slim to none that any public post will be made. Whatever circumstances led to the pin being pulled so abruptly are likely significant enough to prompt those who know to keep their heads down and low. Self-preservation is far more important than satisfying curiosity (no disrespect meant and I'm not trying to trivialize here), so in that regard people have to just accept and move on with the possibility that one will not nor ever know how, why, etc.

This segues well into the second theme of this entire thread, and that is, the loss members feel and the struggle to accept that what many would prefer not. If you read well between the lines all the elements are there: despair, anger, shock, disbelief. As hard as it initially was, it's obvious within these pages that the wheelies are winding it down and moving on.

Who will remain to post will likely be the trolls and wannabe's, and they'll just just jump over to the next eDrama. Another day at FST in that regard :)

Your site was/remains held in high regard and I think you guys should appreciate the fact that you have had over 40 pages of on topic relevant postings.This isn't usually the case.If guys decided to go stupid on you,then believe me,nipplecake wouldn't be here attacking people for quite frankly redundant reasons(and if anything,I think by doing this he's more than likely to instigate this all out flame war).

So how about you guys remain on topic and stop calling fsters who somehow can't associate with your pain those names that you are calling them,more so to you nipplecake,I don't see why you want to be a hero.

[buba013]

Hello all,

Good luck With the new homes , It was fun .

Wish you all the best For the Future.

[plankton]

So apparently users who were active on the forums/irc were given invites.

Really bummed since all my torrent buddies only used ukt so they're unable to invite me to another site.

Sad to see the site go after so many years but I'm there they had good reason to shut it down.

I don't see why so many people here think of ukt members as elitist. I always thought of us as pretty humble with a pretty tight-knit community. But then again this is a public forum and those come with it's share of trolls.

BTW for anyone that's curious my u/n was 'stingaa'. been there since the beginning (user id was something in the low xxx range).

Was good while it lasted :(

[Bad-Day]

No one seams to understand, that the avarage user, off uk ( ages above 20) ( just like FL users ) never cared about levels, other trackers, and had more to do whit their lifes than chansing trackers,...
Trackers knowadays are filled whit teens* you will never find a place similiar in any way to uk. Maybe supertorrents, it used to be pretty decent.
If youre use forums much, get ready for : what are you listenning, what have listen to just know, what movie are watching, what movie were u watching, whats the shape off your poo, how many times did u pee per day, and so on.. bad-days on your way man.

I dont want to be a hero. I am merely sticking up for the UK-T people. I am in no way seeking worship or someone to congratulate me on what i say.

[That1Guy]

yeah, you gotta realize alot of these new guys have no idea about all the fst level bit drama. This is just where google brought them because one of the regulars made a thread and then all the regulars posted about it for 8 pages.

[The_Martinator]

No one seams to understand, that the avarage user, off uk ( ages above 20) ( just like FL users ) never cared about levels, other trackers, and had more to do whit their lifes than chansing trackers,...
Trackers knowadays are filled whit teens* you will never find a place similiar in any way to uk. Maybe supertorrents, it used to be pretty decent.
If youre use forums much, get ready for : what are you listenning, what have listen to just know, what movie are watching, what movie were u watching, whats the shape off your poo, how many times did u pee per day, and so on.. bad-days on your way man.

In a way I agree, but maybe all of the older guys are just waiting for you to make a thread.... :naughty:

When people have such little information how can you blame them for being creative and making theories? You expect people to just wait idly by for an announcement from staff? At least he's using his brain for a change.

I really dont understand why anyone would encourage rumours. Are you spastic?






How come the dvd selling only became a problem recently? How come it wasnt a problem 2 years ago?


please please pleeeeease for the love of god stop talking such shit! you have no idea what you are chatting about and whenever someone reads your post they just think you are more and more of an arsehole.

well if you aren't trying to be a hero then how do you explain the above,like honestly.The guys put out logically valid questions yet instead of trying to tackle their Qs or simply ignoring them,you opt to post insults.Tell me its not because you think its a cool thing to do when you have an audience such as this one.

You know I sometimes hate how I recall things but 90% of the time that you make such posts,the site almost always has something to do with asterisks.Anyways,I'll leave the rest to assumption but I think you owe these two people an apology or better yet an answer to their Qs since as you've stated,they clearly don't know shit.

[Fishy2]

Hey Buba is that really you? Those photos were class mate :lol:. Thanks to all at FST who have made us feel welcome, I cant believe this thread has run so long :ermm:
While I'm grateful for the chance to keep up contacts I would have missed out on I cant help feeling worried for those higher up and think for now I'll just remember "Whats the first rule about fight club?" Hope I'll meet you all soon on another site :whistling

[IdolEyes787]

Thanks to all at FST who have made us feel welcome,



Mi casa es su casa .:)
Actually you are welcome more than most because your motives aren't suspect.:dry:

[Ekimus]

I wasn't picked - but then again, I mostly kept to myself. I think a lot of people from UK-t will fall into that category also. I can't speak for others, but being a member of UK-t since the fall of EliteTorrents sheltered us from this ongoing e-penis war over which torrent community is best. Goes to show that anyone on the internet will complain about anything given the proper forum and box to stand on.


+1

It was 4+ good years...:happy:

[LubTheStaringCat]

With he recent Influx of exwheelies to FST, I think It's definitely gave this place a spark of life.
There's definitely a change around here, a different feeling, I don't know whether It will last... But roll on the good times.

[weenden]

its a shame that some dickweed had to screw up a good thing i wasnt there but was hoping some day to be ,but that all might be gone
for anyone who dreamed of being its now a nightmare....................................im hoping for the people who were there things work out and all this rederick turns out to be crap.

They seem to be posting only in this thread. I am not sure they have interest in being here as a regular poster when this thread died down. I hope some will stay back, now that they know this place.:)

I like it here. will deffo stick around.




Absolutely could use some of bubbas pics about now.


Also missing the official drunk thread.:wacko:

[FreakinWeasel]

[Albo Da Kid]

When people have such little information how can you blame them for being creative and making theories? You expect people to just wait idly by for an announcement from staff? At least he's using his brain for a change.

I really dont understand why anyone would encourage rumours. Are you spastic?
First of all I wasn't encouraging rumors, I was pointing out the worst that could happen.
Was it an assumption? Yes. The fact that the site has not given out any information yet after all this time, and the fact that they wiped their hard drives clean tells me something is definitely wrong.

This might add to my suspicions as well http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-news-section-95/t-uk-terminating-naughty-file-sharers-april-10-374982/

Nobody is trollin or spreading fake rumors here. Just trying to converse and prepare you fellas for the worst. You should thank me instead of being so judgmental.

I hope my assumptions are wrong, and there's nothing wrong with the site, but forgive me for trying to be realistic.

Quick Question: What are you guys expecting from the announcement? I see a lot of you are enthusiastic about it that's why I'm asking.
What kind of news are you expecting to get?

[bumrocks]

Whatever happens in the short or long run, hopefully it will be for the best or work out for the best reasons. I will miss it as long as it is gone. Whether it will be gone for good or not seems suspect from squizzle my nizzle's comment. Hopefully we will get a knock on the internet door sooner than later...If not, the best to those that were members.

BTW...If there are any mods around reading this...I promise to be a good boy and play nice. Privs would be nice again...

[whipit]

Beyond all the what happend and why! Hope all are good still and sad to see the community go as there really isn't and wasn't anything out there like it. Thanks for the Years!

[JVJ]

WOW, this thread is really immense now. Good to see you guys.

And to all the trolling dickheads, you've got no class, unlike the classy trolling mod I am/was http://sc.webmessenger.msn.com/10.1.0323.0/session/images/emoticons/smile_teeth.gif

See you on the other side guys/gals.

[Noodle99]

Wow, read through 46 pages to find out not much. Found this on google like others. Been a UK-T member for prob 4 years or so. Ive got the paypal xmas receipts to prove it if needed. Awesome site. Now I'm a bit lost to be honest. Would appreciate a point in the right direction from some of the other UK-T homeless :)

Hi Everyone:D

“Mi casa es su casa “
@ IdolEyes787 Muchas Gracias

@ TP635 Some will some wont I guess? Count me in

Quick Question: What are you guys expecting from the announcement?
@ Albo Da Kid Cant speak for anyone else, only news I want now is that all our friends are safe and well

WOW, this thread is really immense now. Good to see you guys
@ JVJ Jooles! I only just realised who JVJ is lol!! Good to see you to!

I feel lost without uk-t to turn to, it wasn't just about the files it was about the community! i miss you guys. Thanks to all that have added me so far!

@ Chandler Chandler I added you as a friend then un-checked it accidentally after you accepted! Sorry re done it now though, good to see you on here to m8 I think a good few people are feeling a little lost atm, also a good few pretenders 2 me thinks :ermm:

Seems to be much confusion and misunderstanding about what made “it” a special place to those that were involved, maybe I can make a small contribution to that understanding that may make people smile.:happy:

Until I came to FST I had no idea what trollin meant! Until I came to FST I had no idea what a class 10 tracker was!:huh:

All I knew was I was involved in something good, the secrecy and respect people were expected to demonstrate I just accepted and thought was “the way things should be”.

Knowing the details of other member’s circumstances and life (the good and the bad) was the norm. Helping others was again both good and normal, and just the way it was “done” My avatar was made by a member (a chess board with some pieces placed randomly on it and my Nick across the top) by a member, twice! (lost with the shutdown)

We all miss the place but what’s done is done, and I’m sure for the right reasons. Now before this turns into something resembling a DV8 post ;) I’ll just say that this will be my last public post on what has happened and at this moment in time my thoughts are with others, and I wish you luck guys.

[curse]

nice to see some friendly faces
I guess some reccon my mugshot as well :whistling

Was a member of uk-t after being invited there when elite torrents was closed down. It was my one and only private tracker, it was all I ever needed.

[Trubo]

uk-t was my finest website! I loved it so much i never needed anything else!

Meaby there are some that recognizing me, i didn't was that active on the forums however my upload stats where pretty good!

[benchez' mum]

I don't what the flip you are all looking for, but IMO it would be better to find a site that suits you on your own, or with help from friends. Not strangers.

[chaytor]

hey there all, Ive been trawling across the net for days to find out whats been happening to UK-T.

I was a member from the start and only just recieved my 1 free invite for my 4+ years there, so I was rather gutted that I had the oppurtunity to invite someone to amazing torrent site and now its gone :(

Does anyone have a difinitive answer why the sites down? Will it be back?

I need a new home as ive never used any other torrent site in half a decade :(

[curse]

whats funny i guess one day ull be in the same boat when ur sites go down and ull be looking for others and wondering whats happened to urs
comunities stay strong if ur not able to see and feel that then ur not properly in a community

That's great. It's just that a fair few of you seem to be waiting on help from others. Others often have their own objective, which doesn't necessarily coincide with yours. Be cautious, do your reasearch, and you'll be fine.
