Retroflix seems to have disappeared.
I just checked my Rapidshare account and 95% of the files I uploaded for Retroflix have been removed.
If this action has been repeated for all members using Rapidshare then Retroflix has ceased to exist.
This is indeed a sad state of affairs as all films on Retroflix were over 20 years old and the 4000 or so members were hardly depriving
the video industry of a fortune.
Between losing the links at Luelinks and now retroflix we have lost a ton of content that may never come back. A sad day for lovers of old films. There is always KG and PTP if everything at those trackers was always well seeded.
I guess I'll have to concentrate on KG from now on. Unfortunately, I live in a rural area and have a very poor upload-rate, things always take so long !
There wasn't any news on their forums about taking the site offline?
The forums are only available to members.Quote:

I have the impression he IS a member ... what he's trying to say is that normally the staff let's the members know they will be downfor some time.Quote:

That will definitely be a shame if this site is down and gone.
No further news as regards RETROFLIX, so I guess it's R.I.P .
I had wondered if some of the big up-loaders might get a private tracker going with their back-ups.
IF ANY MEMBERS OF RETROFLIX COULD OFFER AN INVITE TO PTP , I'D BE EXTREMELY GRATEFUL. ( or anyone else for that matter).
As I will no longer require a Rapidshare Pro account, I'll invest the same amount in a seed-box.
Thanks in advance.

Hello All
It's True I Guess...... :sadwalk:
Here's The Question I Asked In My Search, "is retroflixdown today for everyone or just me?"
Here's The Answer They Gave Me "...Sorry, we can't resolve if this website is down or not at the moment. Try your status search again shortly or try visiting the website directly." I Tried It 3 Or 4 Times.
Here's More Info I Dug Up "Retroflix.info 4 years 10 months 23 days old,..... # 408,371 Traffic Rank.....Estimated 1,335 Visitors Per Day...Daily Page Views Estimated 4,005..." Register Date: 2007-03-13, Update Date: 2011-03-09, Expire Date: 2012-03-13, 36 days left until Expiration.
That's All The Info I Could Find Out, I Will Really Miss RetroFlix. :(
I Don't Think I'll Find Another Site Like It. :cry1:
This Is My 2nd Post So Far, I Signed Up Today :)
Hunkytrucker Can You PM Me When You Have Some Free Time?
Still No Sig Yet Ricky
I will indeed, when we both pass the 2 week delay !Quote:

KG, Gormogon or ILoveClassics are a more appropriate replacement for RetroFlix then CG, imo.Quote:

Would also suggest cinematik and secret-cinema.
You've been a member for a few weeks, but have only made 2 posts, so it's still not possible to send you a PM.Quote:

Hi guys,
I've also been a member of retroflix for years now and I found that it's down.
Can someone help me get back on to it or on any other site where I can get old movies.
It sucks that retroflix is down. That was the only site where I could get the kind of movies that they had.
Please help :(

Building up all this material was a 'labour of love' and only a fool would embark on such a mission knowing that the file-hosts
could simply delete everything without the slightest hesitation at the threat of litigation.
R.I.P Retroflix
I can help you, messege me in private your email.
Who are you talking to and more importantly what are you talking about?Quote:

Here is new site, opened before 6 months, but already collected a lot of tv movies and shows "tvjunkies.tv". Only rs host.
I think retroflix should be up and running within a week.. read somewhere on the net.
Anybody got an invite?? :)
I had a few invites....................Quote:

Just a heads up but this isn't the correct sub-forum to be talking about invites.
And also; 'hunkytrucker' :glagpinch:
Apparently there is some continuing confusion over exactly where non-bittorrent requests are to be posted.Quote:

With all due respect : I was not offering any invites !
I was writing in the past tense and furthermore, RETROFLIX is no more !
Lastly, I started the thread !
Actually I was directing my comment to manker but if you'd really like to fight me I'm afraid there's a waiting list.
Oh, my bad. I thought retroflix was a tracker. Plz to be carrying on.
lots of love

It's been a while since RETROFLIX bit the dust.
Any news out there ?
