Torrent Sites come and go
#1
I had no idea where to post this so here we go TPB has been my anchor for torrenting I learned how to search,seed,share and become good enough to be promoted.
I became curious about the other sites so i found the Old Vol. 1 KAT I shared with them they were auto indexing me anyway (Skull Benefit) From there I learned about more and more sites but none around  like here. A fellow uploader from here and Kat and all kinds of others gave me a invite to Demonoicd It was green but had that old feel like here (History im smelling) I registered and started sharing. And like here the mods did not fuck around ,they suffered no fools and questions? I knew better I had seen both there and here the idiot getting flayed alive. meanwhile KAT and Extratorrent rose and fell. And here? they took a personal month and a half off. I got a Green skull when they came back Sharing was good. At Demonoid I just posted and went on my way. And than one Day my name changed color. I was a VIP uploader at the oldest sites around. (Thats why its green) Than a terrible thing happened Deimos the Boss of Demonoid had went missing. Time went by finally word came down Deimos was gone and Demonoid was fnished. Very sad. But there was a candle being held by a few Mods. Deimos was very smart and trusted maybe 1 or 2 peeps who were not dead  (thats how he stayed out of trouble when It hit the fan) Anyway He was gone and than someone wiped the servers and it was all gone.         The End

5 days ago Demonoid returned. With no fanfare or Torrent Freak announce it just came back. Empty but fully functional and ready to serve the peeps again. Sadly it was not Deimos he is gone but the site is back and is being filled once again by those who had filled it before. Welcome back Demonoid and RIP Deimos.
Sites come and go, legends never die. Not as long as the memory is strong enough. Welcome back the Demon It has stood the test of time. It is being rebuilt even as i write this.

Damn I went and wrote a book. If this is in wrong place tell me and i will do what i must. If any are curious thats good. Long live The Sites and me? I just came to share.

Will they keep up? Current KAT looks like a little portrait of the original. Can't tell about the future, but torrenting is getting harder each year, and with a bunch of companies interested in digital media syndication and advertising, cold war will warm up.

I hope so. Its more the bigger and popular sites get gone. When Vol.I KAT became #1 it also became gone. Than Extratorrent #1 than done. This place however Is the most resilient BT site known it can be #1 and live. She was built for it. Demon I have to say was built from Deimos. Will it last who can say. But for the legacy it deserves the test. Cause its Pass\Fail so we shall learn sooner than later. Cause change in the P2P world tends to be quick. I will be there to see either way. I was one of the last out when ET went offline. That was strange it came down to this ...

afterwards we learned it went off of its own (forced) choice. Could not blame them It was a good 10 year run.

Kind of ironic since TPB wanted to go down so that the hydra would spawn more heads

Being there when it was happening it was like a roller coaster of deletion.and takedowns and obsession with the #1 spot. Bubanee and I both knew that Kat was going down. And ET was more of a surprise although I did warn of impending trouble...

As usual no one wanted to hear it.   Unfortunately It remains true and there is no shortage of numbers whores who distribute copy written content for reasons unknown.
As Dokken said...Its Not Love.   And when you have to pay for crap you don't even like for the next 20 years welllllll... That's not Love either.

It's life; good things come and go. However, it's just like how life throws a lemon. When that does happen, make a lemonade.

There are a lot more torrent sites to go to for uploading and downloading, places like 1337x.to, or YIFY the next generation (no, that's not the official name, but you get the idea).

Not counting Russian and automated sites and behind the wall,  there are far fewer community oriented torrent sites around,  after Kat V-1, Extratorrent and Demon V-1-2 fell. 
You tell me  What Sites that leaves that still has a good selection, active uploaders + Community?
BTW yes 1337x.to is a fine site I am a VIP uploader there. And there are many other strong uploaders there. Fortunately I don't notice a compulsive obsession for being #1 there and it lives and works well.  ETTV is trying to grow and Torrent Galaxy which is a mix of Kat V-1, ET ,WWT and Demonoid V1-2 survivors It is following the ET style and its doing well. I don"t want to curse it.  Otherwise it gets pretty thin....But on a positive note Demonoid V-3 is getting help from many uploaders from all across the face of P2P who answered the call
