Hopefully this won't be the end of CO... but if it is, we've still got Secret Cinema, and we can simply move our forums here (or elsewhere).
If Cinema Obscura dies then it will be very tragic.
:dabs:
Oh NO! Motis was such a great mod,loved his attitude! Site was great too,a lot easier to keep a good ratio than KG,hope they come back,doesn't look likely though!
yup, it sucks bad.. my favorite site. period.
One of my true faves
RIP CO
Wow, this really sucks. Nobody has found out why?
the funeral was last week...apparently you weren't invited
I don't go to funerals.Quote:

Goem is a nice choice too.
Why would it be tragic. :unsure:Quote:

I'm also sad about the loss of cinema-obscura (CO). A quick question: what are "KG" and "CG"?
IMO KG is the best tracker for old movies.Quote:

No problem :) I'd invite you to Cinematik if I had an invite, but I don't.
Goem, PtN, Cinematik. If you have those three plus KG you won't need anything else.Quote:

hello
I'm new to this forum. Came on here trying to find out what has happened to CO. Like many here it was my #1 choice and am having sever withdrawl pangs...
Does anybody know why its down???
I would welcome any spare invites for any of the other sites mentioned. I don't have any invites to trade. help! many thanks
Motis pulled the plug .
The forum was pretty much uncensored, with one massive exception, that being don't criticise the country CO was hosted in . There'd always been people who wouldn't / couldn't accept this, they were normally dealt with pretty swiftly . In the build up to & during the Olympics however, things started getting a bit too fraught, people kept pushing & pushing . Obviously they pushed too far .
There's a CO Survivors Support Group forum in existance, which is actively looking at getting CO relaunched .
CO is dead ... Their staff started a new tracker named Tv-Vault .
You've been fed duff info ....Quote:

No worries, good luck with the boozing .
:P thanks dude :DQuote:

TehConnection is a good source for movies too
imo KG is all you need for repertoire stuff, 45000 torrents or so
KG has pretty much all of the torrents uploaded on CO, plus a lot more.
The benefit of CO was the fact it's really easy to seed - whereas KG is somewhat trickier.
But really, in the long run, it's a lot easier to put more effort into KG than it is to try to maintain two ratios.
CO was definitely a nice tracker though.
http://www.cinema-obscura.com/
If you read the home page, it explains why they're down at the moment and also states "There is currently an effort to resurrect CO in progress."
So I don't believe that they're gone for good.
Apparently there was some drama because they are hosted in China and they had a rule about not criticizing China which wasn't enforced well enough on the IRC channel or some such thing.
I just hope they don't send the sysop to the same place they sent the tank guy, the iphone factory girl, and Zhang Liang (rower who got disqualified for missing an event).

Is it anything to do with the Chineese holding the Olympics?.
It is clear that the only alternative is KaraGarga which is of little help to Cinema-Obscura members since KaraGarga keep their doors permanently shut unless someone can persaude them to relax their stance for ex-CO members.
