prolonged worries me. i need to see if the new converge has been leaked.
I saw that a couple of nights ago. I'm a little disappointed. I used mininova for my Howard Stern downloads. Any sites equal to demonoid as far as user comments and such?
I've been using the piss out of isohunt

It was Tuesday night.

hmmm. well i hope they get up and going soon.
It was two nights ago. Whatever that was.

One week before the start of Dexter? Rude.
the first ep came out on the intertubes last month
I know. I wasn't about to watch the first episode just so I could wait another 4+ weeks to see the next one.
Anyone know what's going on with demonoid? It's been down for a couple of days now.
I know no one in this bothered to discuss this over the last day or so.

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:
http://torrentfreak.com/demonoid-bit...r-days-090901/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.

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
