    Feeling promised that we would all understand why the site went down when the news story came out... which i believe he said would happen in the first quarter of 2010 ...

    well the time has passed so where is the news about the big bust and the legal action and the whole explanation :?

    lol, that seems obvious.

    ScT stands as a great example of why one should not donate, unless of course you don't mind supporting a site that profits from the efforts of others/the scene. ST is another such example.

    Then again, most people donating to ScT were simply doing so for their own benefit, ie buying invites. So, I guess it doesn't really matter where the money went.

    As far as i know, ScT wasn't making a penny from donations.
    and second, they never forced anyone to donate or what so eva.

    if they made some $ from it, so what ? they spended enough hours to code the site/optimize it, running the site is a big risk, 99% uptime. don't they deserve some $ for all these hard works?

    You enjoyed what they offered 3+ years and now when they are gone, you are bullshitting about them...

    ScT was the best private/scene tracker on the net and everyone knows it.
    Everyone thinks SCC replaced ScT but they are wrong.

    SCC is a good tracker, i have nothing against SCC but ScT was a pro tracker, high standard releases and very user friendly interface and easy to use.

    If ScT comes back, i will gladly donate 100-150$ to join ScT again.

    Anyways, ScT was the god of the 'net. There was so much hype and talk about it. ScT was always behind FTN in the "most wanted" list. If ScT was even "l33ter," then more people would want to join in on the fun. The sad thing was that it died, but we're all sure that it happened for a reason. Nobody knows yet, other than ScT staff members.

    Lol, my point exactly. It doesn't really matter where the money went as a lot of users were more than happy to buy their way in. Fucking hilarious.

    And, Sct had high standard releases?? I don't know what ScT you were using, but I only saw scene releases, which SCC and a million other sites have. ScT was easier to use than SCC? I really don't get that one.

    I don't know about anybody else, but the way I see it, SCC gained a lot of ScT's users, including uploaders. Combining the two dedicated communities only served to make SCC better than ScT could have been. However, I'm kinda sad to see that SCC did go the route of ScT in making invites available to only donors.

    emperorIX, ScT packs

    ScT packs were great and ScT wasn't missing any scene release!
    I am a member of SCC also, SCC is missing lots of scene releases, specially in games/xxx sections and some other sections.

    SCC is mainly based on Movies/TV releases, they should look after other categories also. Specially Games. Wii/XBOX/PC games etc...

    overall, SCC: 9.3/10.

    Yeah, you've got me there, lol. SCC sucks balls for games and porn. But, since the demise of ScT, SCC has gained a lot. Especially in the packs department. I don't mean to say that ScT sucked or anything, but it did shut down under some very shady conditions. They took the money and ran. If I had donated, I'd be pissed and would definitely not sing their praises anywhere. I'm glad they're gone if that's all the site was really about, ie profit.

    A point I tried to make was that it wasn't the site that made ScT great, but the users, many of whom are now at SCC.
