The problem they had/have is like a few have mentioned, they went from one minute being a site hard to get into, to open its doors to pretty much anyone. So when the new members came in, they weren't inclined to download a whole lot, because they wanted to say they have a 1337 ratio on a 1337 tracker.
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...

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.
Now explain to me WHY there's an IF. It's not like the community is putting up the ETA, it's you. Don't let (I don't know how many members ScL has, let's go with 7000) 7000 users down. 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.
