Word. Pretty OK design, but who cares about design (well I guess some people do). What it comes down to is there are no leechers and pretty much no activity at all. Whats the point?Quote:

They've tried to get more people downloading but it just doesn't seem to be working. I blame seed-boxes for this. Seed-boxes are great when you've got hundreds hitting a new torrent at one time, but when you've only got 10 or 20, or usually much less in ScL's case, seedboxes are more of a hindrance as it's impossible to give back if you;re one of the few jumping on a new torrent. It's a viscous circle.
ATTENTION EVERYONE!
ATM, the site is obviously offline.. As ViperMM has said there is issues with paypal, nothing to do with anything financial. they had messed up on their notes and as a result, they though the site was still under review(because of a previous problem).. In the midst of trying to get things straightened out, our hosting service decided they didn't like what we were doing.. so they shut down everything! a bullshit wanker move..
Anyways, we don't know when we will get things sorted(if it gets sorted) but, we'll keep you guys informed of the sites final status.. Consider this the official word from ScL's Staff for now.
Thank You guys for not taking this opportunity to totally rip the site apart(as what normally happens around here).. that shows a lot of class from FST members...
Reguards
still down
hope scl back

yep, just pointing something out kind sir. I was a member of the tracker a time ago but saw where it was headed and just wanted to make sure my statements were not misconstrued as me criticizing.Quote:

understood
This, especially this part, is what I don't understand in the mentality of Sysops. Can you explain to me the if part about your tracker going down? It goes down, you give people an ETA and tell them to shut up till then and stop complaining. When the tracker's back everyone's overjoyed.Quote:

Or at least, don't give up for the sake of the users who loved the place. Take your time, bring it back up better, stronger, and harder to get into than ever.
Just covering all bases, we are trying but, the cards don't seem to be in our favor .. atm, we have a very poor hand dealt us is all i'm going to say.. We still have some chips left so, don't count us out yet :DQuote:

I'm using OpenDNS and am redirected to promo*.c-rewards*.com (without the stars, of course).Quote:

It would be nice if they informed their members, or kept them up to date with what is going on, not everyone uses irc...
their domain is now online casinos/gambling, it would be nice of ScL's op's to give us an update to what is really going on...
Lets be pro's about it, not this childish smoke n mirrors stuff...
The fact that no update has been given yet means that there's no new news regarding ScL's future.Quote:

I just read that and I can't believe it. :(Quote:
