[Slydragon]

I hate log in to use torrent sites. I guess pirate bay is my 1st stop.

[spurs_2108]

Sucks that demonoid went down... It was my replacement for OiNk. Pirate Bay is probably my next stop... No one has any waffles.fm invites of what.cd?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Got any invites, Manny?

[spurs_2108]

Yah, I wanna check out that site too. Gotta have an invite cause sign up is closed...

[Johnny RIngo]

Sucks that demonoid is down. Guess it's back to using pirate bay, mininova, suprnova, btjunky, etc.

Anyone have invites for waffles.fm / what.cd / stmusic.org / leecherslair?

[MannyIsGod]

Woah you need an invite? Thats nuts - I just signed up for it earlier this week. I"ll find out if I have any.

I like the idea that you have to upload as much as you download for you to remain a member. Its fast as hell too - much faster than any of the other torrent sites I've used.

[Re-Animator]

BtJunkie used to have two colors to show the Health of the download.

Green is Good Yellow is you may as well wait till the movie is on cable. And red was it was poor or no more seeders. But after this site went belly up now BTJunkie shows "clear" a new color!

Thank you for your patience

It's not a torrent site, just shows a ton of movies/tv shows.

This article is from Sept 1st, and probably relates to the current status of the site:


Demonoid BitTorrent Tracker Could Go Dark For Days

Demonoid remains one the most popular BitTorrent sites on the Internet, despite a fairly colorful and turbulent past. Sadly its thousands of users could soon find themselves without their favorite site, as technical difficulties are set to cause possibly extended downtime.

Demonoid is one of the biggest torrent sites around. Now fairly peacefully hosted to the west of Russia in Ukraine, the site has previously received unwanted attention from both music and movie companies. So when the site goes offline a lot of people start to think of the worst, especially if there is little or no warning.

During the next few days, maybe hours, Demonoid may go down due to some serious-sounding technical issues. They have already caused some damage to the site so the operators want to limit further damage.

“We are experiencing power outages that have caused some ram and hard drive issues. We might have to shut down everything to fix and prevent further damage,” they say in a statement.

The downtime could be extended, “…days maybe, until we can change the power circuit,” they add.

Several Demonoid users already report connection issues, but the site is still accessible to most people at the time of writing. The blackout won’t mean much to millions of Russian and Ukrainian BitTorrent users though, since they are already blocked from the site.

Over the years Demonoid has had its fair share of downtime. In June 2007 Demonoid was pressured to leave their host in the Netherlands, mainly because of legal threats from the Dutch anti-piracy outfit, BREIN. The site then relocated to Canada, but after threats from the CRIA, it decided to shut down there as well.

In 2008 the site eventually reappeared in full glory after being offline for six months. This time the downtime shouldn’t last that long. http://torrentfreak.com/demonoid-bittorrent-tracker-could-go-dark-for-days-090901/

The site will return as soon as possible, but there was a problem that caused data loss and the person who can help us get the data back is not able to help at this moment. The site will return when we can get his help

A loss of a some months worth of activity including registered users and torrent submissions is to be expected because the backup we are hoping to get back is not up to date, so please be prepared for it

I don't buy the loss of data theory since most users are the seeders themselves.

Right. We'll believe you then, instead of the people that own the system.

Hey, everyone! Alex says everything is fine and will be exactly the same! Oh, and if you have any problems, PM Alex. He'll hook you up.

cool I will hit you up tonight homie

[Viva Las Espuelas]

Edit: There are some rumors about the site shutting down for good and we starting a new tracker next year. the rumors are of course, lies. There are no plans of shutting down or creating another site.

And there is NO official twitter/facebook/any other web community page for Demonoid. There are a few around that were created by fans and have no link to the site or staff.
The parts of the site code that got deleted are being rewritten and should be ready soon. We are also working to try and minimise the data loss as much as possible.

Thanks for your patience.

pff.. site's dead

[Dr. Gonzo]

It's back baby. :elephant

As much as I like using megauploadforum.net, they just don't have the obscure music that can be found on demonoid. I think I will stick with the forum for my mainstream downloads though.

[Pistons < Spurs]

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I've tried using Pirate Bay for a few things, but just don't like the site as much and have had some bad dl's from there too.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Test run

Hello!
We are currently testing the newly written code. More downtime is hopefully not necessary, but might be a possibility. Welcome back, we missed you!

I like MUF, cause MU is SO much faster than torrents, but you are right. There are just some things you can't find. The site is just getting popular, though.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

[Hank the Tank]
