If people start posting alternative trackers right now (and more than one, as it's already happening), then in the end people will start running like crazy in different directions.

This isn't what we need.

First, I still have some hope that TB won't go down and it's just another case of a bad month. So perhaps there's no point jumping ship just yet?

Secondly, it would REALLY help that if TB IS closing down, then we could select ONE new tracker which will welcome our community. Make a poll, have our beloved administrators talk things over. MAKE A NEWS POST ABOUT IT.

Again, if we start creating multiple accounts on multiple trackers posted in this thread, then things will quickly fall apart.

Been sending out PM's to those in my saved Profile buddy list I have interacted with on the forums on how to keep in contact.

I'm another one of the 'lurkers' that would love to see the site still live even if it's in the form of a forum only.

Someone mentioned a Kickstarter campaign earlier, I'd definitely contribute.

Either way, thanks for everything to everyone involved with this site.

No longer invite only. For a short period we now have open sign ups for those that want to join.

Glad to read that we're welcome there, thanks! I will definitely consider joining. If by any chance I could turn over my ratio there though, that would be amazing!

If I've read the rules correctly there's no worrying about your ratio at Torrentshack.

TorrentBytes is my 2nd private tracker after demonide. I love the site very much. So will be sad to see it go down.

I'm not interested in running to new places. Also, I'm not interested in opening a completely new forum. Just remove the fucking tracker from this site, and move the forum as-is to a new host. It should be a walk in the park for any basic coder. Seriously, why aren't we getting any feedback on this?

My bad ! I missed that bit about ratio (didn't see that the rules had links on the bottom). I am not an active or family member (100 / 500 gigs upload respectively apparently) yet but that will hopefully come with time, as it did with Torrentbytes.

what i do find confusing, is for example torrentshack, bitsoup and many other trackers use paypal to pay their bills.

Bitsoup is also a basic paytoleech site selling upload data and doing promotions and give aways but they have no issues using paypal and get in excess of �3-4000 running through their donations each and every month. yet all the accounts on TB get seized. any reason for this?

We would all prefer to see this place stay open, a few months without torrents maybe even longer or maybe less. Is that such a hard price to pay to see everyone stay together?

Has been up pretty much as long as TB. Now they recently decided to become closed. Meaning invite only.
They have all the torrents TB has and more. They recently built the site code up from scratch.
I have 5 invites and pretty sure people here have more, just don't feel like posting.
I will invite anyone within Uploader class that pm's me (no one else). Chances are TD will soon realize that TB members need a new place to live and remove invite only status.

Can you give me details of their irc channel, I had an account with these guys a couple of years ago but it was suspended when i didnt use it for a while. might see if i can get reinstated. unless you can sort me out an invite?

the site isn't closed yet and the rules still apply so if I were you I'd choose my words a little more carefully or someone might just think you were serious

Assuming the site does close, is there going to be a free for all beforehand? 24 hours of madness?

Go out with a bang or something?

just a thought....

TB has been a part of my daily internet browsing for so many years, I am not sure how I will handle losing that.. I rarely download anything, I come for the outstanding community. The respectful variety of viewpoints on any given subject make TB one of the best communities on the internet.
