    TheDevil was not an owner, but for the most part it was his baby. The whole concept and most ideas originally came from him.

    Anal is the only form of birth control shown to be 100% effective. Even abstinence failed once.

    The little I've known via word of mouth, you guys had some pretty good concepts working for you. However, knowing absolutely nothing of the situation, I am not very surprised that an owner would jump ship from such a seemingly time intensive / low payout project, regardless of the actual specific reason. I see no love in owning such a site; if anything its just an terrible excuse to spiral yourself into an unproductive hobby obsession. Three years plus of holding onto this guys attention is a pretty big accomplishment if you want to call it that.

    Some random updates as to the new project:

    ... All in all, a new site would allow for a fresh start for a tracker which has had a very rough run.
    That's all for now. No real timeframe for it coming back up, for the sole reason that it isn't coming ack a half-assed/rushed site just to crash all over again.

    just a suggestion
    when the site does come back up, how about having the torrents below a certain size say 2 GB Freeleech?
    it would help the existing users who have taken a hit in the ratio due to the downtime and also attract fresh users to make up for those who left the site?

    I wouldn't be surprised if they come back and start with some freeleech, in general, for everyone...

    I've got to be honest, I thought the place was a sinking ship ever since its revival. It wasn't long before the donation begging started again, and recovering from a complete loss of torrents is crippling for any site. It either should have been revived immediately (with a backup of at least some of the torrents) or shouldn't have been revived at all.
