Fixed. It was a huge farce, if you ask me. Some honest users did get in around the places they asked for, though. I can't believe you didn't enjoy ScT, what did you find wrong with it? Honest question, not getting on your nerves. I honestly couldn't find a fault with it, at all.Quote:

And let's not forget that there is a major risk to play with RIAA. They have balls, while you stay here and just complain.
I'm not really sure why, I just never used it...Quote:

There are a number of different reasons why people enjoyed ScT. The true users are those who were there from the beginning.
Lets forget SCC forget FTN and go back to the early days of ScT.
Do you remember the Prank Calls we did at ScT?
The original wallpaper competitions?
Lets think back to 2006... Do you know what it cost to own a Gbit Pipe?
-> This was before OVH had even broken into the market. Dedibox.fr was just opening for business and Softlayer in the US was leading the way.
When 2007 Rolled arround the price for a Dual Xeon Server with a 1000/1000mbit connection was 329.00USD per month with 2TB of traffic. Aditional traffic was 100.00USD per TB.
How many of you knew that at this time there were several dedicated uploaders using these boxes and paying for them out of their own pocket?
Lets not forget there was no auto scripts back then either. The releases would auto race to the .US box and each torrent would then have to be uploaded... Thinking back now to when Stargate was airing it would take about 1-2m to FXP it over to the box then another 2 minutes to manually upload it and begin seeding.. 5m Pre times were at the time FAST and often met with pages and pages of comments and thank you's.
Now think about the packs back in 2007 if you were a member at ScT back then. ScT was the FIRST site to start making dedicated movie packs. The first site to upload the IMDB Top 100.
I believe it was also back in 2007 by memory when ScT did the hugly memorable FreeLeech on it's birthday. The IRC channel was packed with people eagerly awaiting the clock to hit 0.00 GMT (This was not the year were if IRC reached 2k users it would be FL... Was 1 or 2 before). There was weeks and hours of planning not to mention huge amounts of money put in by the uploaders alone to purchase a number of boxes and load them up. Going again by memory there was close to 100 packs compiled. The minute the clock hit 0.00 GMT the uploders spammed ScT the IRC was flooded with mutiple ***.Pack-ScT torrents and the channel went wild :)
Those are the memorys from the earliy days of ScT and why the older members are so loyal that is something none of the new sites don't have and will Never have. The torrent community has changed over the last few years and with it the top uploaders in the world have since moved on...
There are many stories and little things most people never knew about ScT. From the proposed merger with ChronicTracker (ScTorrents.Org... And yes the Skin and site actually existed... It looked like the final version of ScT Before closure but with the logo's merged and green perl in the backroudn colour) to everything that went on in the back end and the site attacks in the early days.
Last but not least. A replacement of ScT was developed, The userbase is on hand, Stats are on hand, All of the ScT related memorbilia and Forums are on hand even a new concept that would be the biggest thing since the launch of scene based torrent trackers in 2004. The problem is not only time but the money required to get the site online which would be #1 from the get go. It was decided in a final meeting between remaining Uploaders, Ex ET/ScT staff and some loyal members to leave everything be and let the memorys fade away.

I can't believe I say this, but apart from the not knowing and wanting to donate several hundreds to revive, I wholeheartedly agree with merwais. It was the best and fastest (in all aspects) scene tracker ever.
SCT had already died when i started torrenting,but if people still remember it in such high esteem,it must have been one of a kind :)
