Beathau5 going down


Seems that if BH5 don't reach their donation goal. It's look like monday will be their R.I.P. date.
Official announcement:

We have reached 24.37% of our donation goal this month.
Since the creation of the site, the staff have contributed the remainder of that goal in order to keep the site alive. Unfortunately the staff are not able to make enough of a contribution to pay the server bill in full this month. The server bill is due this Monday, and if we do not receive any more donations, we will sadly have to close the site.
We cannot exist without the support of our users. If donations are not reached by Monday, the site will officially close.

Zamunda online again for users outside Bulgaria

Zamunda is the biggest bulgarian torrent tracker. It's not a specialized tracker, so you can find whatever you want. It's with closed signups and no invite system. The good news is that the signups become open from time to time when some of the users are banned. Don't be afraid if you don't know bulgarian - the site has English translation and also a small part of the forum is dedicated to foreign users. In two words - the tracker is very friendly to all users.

Since the tracker is originally planned to be for Bulgarian users, you have to set your language to English after you register. You can do so by clicking the English flag next to your username in the top left corner.
Note: All the comments on the torrents are written in Bulgarian, so you will probably not understand them, but if you want to ask something, you can always drop a comment in English or write in the international forums/ you will surely be answered/

If your ratio is under .30 you must seed all the torrents you download for at least 30 mins after downloading them or you will be warned/ 3 warnings = ban/.

Go and register for Zamunda here

PolishTracker joins the SOPA Blackout Day with Freeleech




Due to the fact that PolishTracker does not support:
- justifying poor sales because of piracy instead of incompetence
- doing everything to gain benefits like loads of money from end-users
- threatening, cutting off, forcing costly “agreements” on pirates
- increasing users surveillance and censorship of the Internet – under the guise of fighting the piracy
- extorted payments of packaging costs of multimedia
- extorted payments of distribution costs of multimedia
- extorted payments of promotion and advertising costs of multimedia
- extorted and repeating payments for multimedia which has already been published
and which is being handed to us by the publishing and media companies (eg. payments for music being emitted on radio or adding media campaigns and distributors costs to every copy of software sold via the Internet);
PolishTracker joins the SOPA Blackout Day (in its own way).
(more info about this operation can be found on Wikipedia).

Due to the SOPA Blackout Day (January 18) there will be a global FREELEECH on PolishTracker (for the first time in 5 years).
There will be no need to seed snatched torrents, only upload will be counted.
In addition, to make pirating more enjoyable for you, we are going to reset H&R counters to people who have had only 1 H&R counted by that time (unfortunately the rest sinned too much, they have to cope on their own).

TrackeReactor is back



The site has been back for about a week now if you haven't noticed already. I was going to make this announcement much sooner, but I wanted to wait until most of the glitches were fixed. Sorry I have not been around much lately. Between work and the fact I recently injured my arm pretty badly I have tried to limit the amount of time I spend on the computer. It looks like I will need surgery from the few people I've talked to so wish me luck. I'm hoping for the best. I thought reopening the forums was the best thing for TR since it seemed like a lot of you guys wanted the site back up. So I did everything I could to make that possible. I won't be as active as I once was, but I'll try my best to be around as much as I can once I find out more about my arm. If you guys have any questions feel free to contact me via email, PM me on the site, hit me up on IRC or you can direct your questions towards Cabo and he will do his best to help you out. If you were staff on the site before we closed our doors and you would like to remain on board please contact me so you don't get demoted. Thanks again guys. Nice to see her back up and running

Peace and Love

TrackeReactor Will be Closing the End of September


Well guys, it's been a great long 4 years. I've met a lot of special people here and even met a few of you in real life. Some of you I consider very good friends and have become people I really care about and love. This site has meant a lot to me and has gotten me through a lot over the past few years. I opened it in the beginning of college as an incoming freshman and it gave me something to do with my free time. I went through a lot those years of my life. Between moving out to a new school, living on my own, taking new classes and my parents going through a divorce it was a tough time for me. TR became a place not just about BitTorrent and obtaining invites to private trackers, but a place for me hang out, meet a different variety of people all over the world, and discuss a wide variety of topics without feeling like people were judging me. I really did not expect the site to get as big as it did or even for it to be around this long. BitTorrent just is not the same anymore and I have lost interest in it, but that does not mean I will forget you guys or my friends. We all experienced a lot over the years and TR will always be in my heart and I hope you won’t forget about it either. We were one of the first BiTtorrent invite sites out there and we took over a lot of our competition taking over TorrentInvites.com and Tracker-Invites.US. We will always be remembered as the site that set politics aside and all that other bullshit and focused on friends and community. After all it was the power of community that made us get this far and kept us together. We could not have gotten as far as we did without our strong community and the driven staff members who used their free time to keep our site strong and safe. If you’d like to pay a tribute to TR please do so in the post. Let us know how TR changed your life, why you loved the site and the history. May TR rest in peace and be remembered by all those it impacted August 2007 – September 2011. Thanks guys for the support. A history page will be made up for the site and I will keep IRC around for any of the people that want to chat and bullshit. Love you guys and any well written tributes will be put on the history page in remembrance of TR.

TorrentLeech.pl - database leaked



Entire database was stolen from popular Polish tracker TorrentLeech.pl (including passwords and IP addresses of users). According to a burglar, publishing of this informations could been avoided, but tracker owners completely ignored the attacker, Some hashed password have been already broken and published.


Here's some pice of leaked database:






Burglar calling himself as White Hacker, yesterday took over admins accounts and send message to all TL.pl users that week earlier he found a critical gap in tracker code. Admins have ignored him, removed his accound and repaired critical gap. But database have leaked to internet as a warning for TL.pl admins that they should never ignored him.

DiGiTALiNK and EP1C group Response



IMAGiNE is hosting UtN on a Candadian server (xx.xx.xxx.xxx) ‘Carat Networks’ because they have no regard for anyones safety. This is only about making a tracker to funnel as much money as possible through its users and turn and spit on you if your against there interests. They can’t take that EP1C has been running shit and it hurts them within, so they make up lies and spread rumors to have that control. UtN will be taking down DDoSed style and everything will come crumbling down. They crossed paths with the wrong person, they
lie, cheat, steal and have a fake identity to make people think they care about there
safety, but in fact many of there source providers have been busted because they have
no regard for your safety, only want the fame of that release. Within the next few
releases I will be providing proof of all this to the public and including all there
personal identification information.. haha if I was a snitch they would have already
been busted. IMAGiNE, are fucking cunts.

Ever wondered where IMAGiNE setups shop? There from the usa… Not all of them
but I will let you know where ol’ kid Stash lives:

**removed that part ,but feel he will post it anyway**

Every release will have this and much more of every IMAGiNE member. Get ready for a War.

Tracon - Tracking the trackers





Trackon is a service to monitor the status and health of existing open and public trackers that anyone can use. A meta-tracker if you will. You can add any of the tracker announce URLs listed here to any of your torrents, or submit any other open/public trackers you might know of.


Possible status values:
  • Excellent: The tracker was reachable, returned a valid response that included peers.
  • Ok: The tracker was reachable, and while it returned a valid response, it didn't include any peers.
  • Error:The tracker was either unreachable or returned some kind of error. For a detailed error message see tooltip. 
Currently tracks: 143 trackers
How is the uptime calculated? 
 
Uptime is calculated based on the percentage of valid responses to the last 64 attempts to contact the tracker. Because the interval between attempts will depend on the 'min interval' for that tracker and other factors, comparing the uptime values of different trackers is not completely 'fair'.

 ##  INFO                                                                    ##
 ##############################################################################
  ##                                                                        ##
  ##    This notice is a long time in the making and I don't even know where
  ##    to begin to be honest. Theres so much to say about the past 6 years
  ##    that Pisexy has existed. Lets start off with a history lesson shall
  ##    we? Pimpie, the owner of Pisexy was originally a developer for a
  ##    well-known site called 123Torrents (later renamed TiT [TorrentIt]),
  ##    things were good there for a while, till Pimpie and a few other
  ##    uploaders/members abandoned that ship and started their own site as
  ##    "revenge" called ABCTorrents later renamed Pisexy. There some low-level
  ##    drama happened, Wild from WildBytes a great person, found out that
  ##    Pimpie was having his duplicate site accounts in draws and "winning"
  ##    them so he didnt have to give the rightful winners any prizes. Wild
  ##    also from talking to Pimpie learned of how he cleared $10,000/month
  ##    (and this was back in 2005, most big sites can clear that easily these
  ##    days but back in the day, $10,000 from a torrent site was incredible).
  ##    Wild left and started his own site, which operated properly and was
  ##    run legitimately. Pimpie kept exploiting his users and the site itself
  ##    into a money maker. One year a thirteen week draw was held, for dvd
  ##    boxsets and then finally a gaming laptop, over 23,000 tickets were sold
  ##    to the userdatabase at the time of  28,000 users at 5 usd each,
  ##    $115,000 USD in about 3 months. On top of their draws at pisexys peak,
  ##    it had a stable 1500 users on a VIP subscription at 7.95 for the first
  ##    month and 12 USD recurring every 30 days. So $11925 in the pocket and
  ##    $18000/month so from VIP subscriptions their total was over $227,000+
  ##    just from VIP subscriptions. But the site has gone downhill since its
  ##    peak, it went from around 30,000 users to around 10. This has drastically
  ##    reduced the amount of income that pimpie received so they did the next
  ##    best thing. Since the site now contained around 10,000 long time stable
  ##    members, it was time to take them for all they had. Lets fake a death now
  ##    everyone. On August 26th if I recall correctly, Pimpie faked his death and
  ##    had the users of his site pay for his "fake funeral" but this actually went
  ##    to the new led tv he purchased, the users of the site have trusted in Pisexy
  ##    for a long time and have not had any reason to not trust pisexy and this was
  ##    their fall. Pimpie has cleared over half a million dollars thanks to PiSexy's
  ##    total possible database size of over 240,000 users over 6 yrs, and he got away.
  ##    Still think pimpie is dead? Err call his house #, ask for Robert, he answered.
  ##    I've already called and gotten ahold of him, this is just incredibly sad, that no
  ##  one has taken the chance to phone him.

  ## off the internet ahaha, also the time he thought Scene Releases should have a bitrate attached and if not, it should be the uploaders job
  ## to get it and add it to the description.. dude who are you kidding? its a scene release. Some staffers left after that
  ## and made their own site, TheCandyStore? It was a failure of course, the staff on Pisexy have no idea how to properly run a site.

Etiv and The Nation invites forums merge



Hello Nation,
I know it’s been a long time since anyone has heard from us unless you come by the irc to see what’s going on but then you still might not have been able to get much of an answer. MKZ has been gone for a while now taking care of his health and might have just moved on from running the forum. Staff have been busy taking care of things in real life.
It’s not that we want T-N to close one bit but we do think it in the best interest to do so. We don’t have the time, money and a few others things needed to run the site properly. So with this happening we will be closing the doors here and merging over to Etiv so that everyone still has a home. There will still be staff from T-N being staff at Etiv and everyone will be moved in to their appropriate rank/user class.
Sorry for not much of a notice but this is just the best thing we can do for our forum. Having our members a home is my main priority.
Sorry for the bad but also good news.

Watch out for SeedNation!



Mass PM from BitMe about SN:

A site, http://www.seednation.net/ has come up and they are offering something that is literally too good to be true. A free seedbox. Here is the bad news boys and girls, with such things, if it sounds too good to be true, it generally is.
So far, I have seen reports of stolen passkeys, stolen accounts, stolen invites and the like. I can’t tell you what to do or don’t do, however, if you find your passkey or the like is stolen you will receive zero sympathy from staff for this.
So what is the point of this mass PM. Simply this, you use this exceptionally dodgy site at your own risk, and if you have been found to have been compromised, after you have received this warning (25/10/2010 at 20:15 GMT) you will have lost your account here. There will be no exceptions, there will be no.. “Oh I’m sorry I didn’t know.” Use this site at your own peril, but be aware that if your passkey or otherwise is found to have been compromised your account WILL be disabled, and any other private trackers you are on will probably toss you as well.
You have been warned.

Following announcement is posted on main page of SeedNation:
SeedNation is closed. SLDKluster / Dhruv are the same person. He also was behind the scam of Leechbox. Seednation is now closed. If you where a member of SeedNation or had a seedbox, please join the IRC server to get your seedbox. The host / sponsor of seednation is now the owner of the domain, and has opened a case agaianst him. The old staff members foxhound, p, and d4rk have started #seedmasters, which will provide seedboxs on gigabit boxs legit. But not for free. It will be for people who purchase VIP.



or IRC: irc.digitalrebels.org #seedmasters

Come Hangout, and get your seedbox today! or come join and find out how you can get yours free!

Know linux? Know seedboxs? Become staff & get paid! Join IRC!

Thank you,
P, Foxhound, d4rk.

TPS is back with new domain



 TPS is back with now new domain: http://thepiratesociety.info

 Officiall statement from new owner of TPS (original thread on TPS Here )
Friends,

Welcome back!

As you've no doubt guessed by now, there have been some drastic changes here at TPS.

We are under new management. This was NOT planned, and it was NOT some sort of hostile takeover. Everything that has been done was done as a last resort to save TPS.

When TPS went down on October 5th, we discovered that the server bills had not been paid in several months. Rather than pay the bills, the go-ahead was given by the previous staff to shut the site down without possibility of return. Working with the hosting company, bubbl3 and pisshivers paid the outstanding balance and took over administration of the servers.

Some Proof:
  • Server.lu asking to fix the negative balance:
  • Server.lu ticket opened to ask for the server contract to be closed: 


  • Server.lu balance with 4 unpaid invoices and our payment to fix the situation: 



As many of you are aware, TPS has experienced plenty of internal turmoil in recent months; many good staff and members alike have been either banned or chased off by a few power-hungry individuals. Whether through neglect, tacit agreement, or outright support, these individuals were not reigned in and essentially ruled with an iron fist banning or alienating all who opposed them. If you questioned their practices, you were "against" them. This obviously goes against everything we've stood for in the past: disagree all you want, voice it without repercussions. You may not get your way, but no one will be punished for their views.

The money was another big issue. Where do we stand on donations? Are we still partnered with so-and-so? How much is coming in? How much are the server bills? Does TPS need more help? Do we have a surplus? Who's handling the money? From now on, TPS is going to be completely transparent about the money. We plan on updating the community about donations, payments, balances, etc.

For these and other reasons, TPS will be running with a small staff, a skeleton crew, for a bit while we figure out where to go from here. Before the downtime, things had become quite bloated and out of control at TPS, and we are working to get back to the TPS that we all knew and loved. A few changes that are readily noticeable are:
  • Transparency.
  • Staff changes. Some of the familiar staff may return, some won't.
  • The Pirate Academy is shut down and the information contained within it will be turned in a Beginner's Guide.
  • Rather than interviews, we will be using a web submission form.
  • The reputation system will be revamped. Currently, we are leaning toward removing reps for invite and possibly going to a Request-Only system; no Giveaways.
  • The NML/LML will be revisited and likely revamped.
  • The Rules will be revised. This is not kindergarten; we don't need or want to babysit.

As far as the .info domain goes, it was the only way to get TPS up and running again. The owners of .com, .org, and .net were either unreachable or uncooperative. As far as we're concerned, TPS was abandoned. This is not some clone of TPS trying to steal members; this is TPS moved to .info. Make no mistake, there are some hard feelings with some of the old staff. Whether those will be mended in the future is difficult to say at this point. We will not drag anyone through the mud, however, and you can see that all names have been left out of this post.

"Back in the day" all ideas, suggestions, critiques, and complaints were welcomed at TPS. We assure you all that those days have returned. Feel free to POLITELY discuss anything and everything.

Again, WELCOME BACK!
