Torrent search engine
#1
Hello guys, I am in the process of creating a torrent search engine, which uses php, dom library, sphinx in particular. 
It is purely a meta search engine.

So, what is the policy of thepiratebay against this? Am I allowed to do this, will my server ip be banned ? 
Since torrentz.com got closed, I got myself the idea of doing this. I know there are lots of them out there, but if I can code, why not :Smile

Thank you

We encourage and support these things.

There is no TPB API, so you'll have to scrape pages to get the data.

Thank you, when site will be ready, HTTP referral will come from site name (dont want to advertise it yet) and a link to pirate bay will be in there as well.
I am asking since kickass banned my ip for doing this, dont know exactly which is their policy, but I will contact them Smile

Just so you guys know, the referral will come from torrents.pink bot or torrents.pink crawler, haven't decided yet Smile

Thank you for the opportunity.
