UK-TWO is closing!


As you may have noticed or will notice UK-two is closing. I have tried every avenue I could think of to keep it open but with low donations I simply can not afford to pay yet another month. Uk-two has been a great site and pretty active but sadly in the entire time of its existance only one month have server costs been met by donations, all other months have been covered by autotron and fishy2. Now that fishy2 has decided to walk away from UK-Two it has all fallen on my/autotrons head, I managed to scrape up the funds lat month to keep the site going and tried this month to stir activity by opening the doors to 1500 new members but alas the donations to keep the site going just where not there.
It saddens me greatly to have to close UK-Two but economically I just cant do it any longer. Any one who has donated this month will get their donation refunded to them minus what ever paypal takes away for their fee.
I do as an alternative offer invites to these two sites if your wish. I am not offering these to enhance any site or carry over stats, but do so so you can still be at a site with familiar names and faces, both these sites are unique from each other and offer different things and are staffed by different staffs, both are not at risk in any way of closing and are well maintained
the first is the oldest tracker still in existance (google it if you dont believe )
use this link to get some free goodies to start you off


the other is newer but equally as good and boasts great staff and active irc with radio
this link will also give you some free goodies to start with


As I said, I do not offer these invites to boost any particular site or benefit in any way, I do it because I feel badly about having to close your home and hope you find a new home in one or both of these so all can still be a happy family together

Its a sad day when any tracker goes down. I think its very generous of them that are refunding those who tried to help the tracker and donated. Thats something you dont see often.

Again a sad day in BT world. There isn't a link in your post. Where did you find this announcement?

UK-Two Closed ~ Rebranding The News

The 2 alternate sites were Fatal Tracker and Pinkies Revenge. I'd never heard of either of them TBH, no idea if they are worth a look at?

UK-2 emailed all members with this info BTW.

PS. I find the way the email is written to be typical of UK-2's 'vibe' - in that it seems to be looking at the tracker world from a viewpoint that people are not very informed about trackers and just pick one or two and stay only with them for ages. This outlook 'vibe' I find alien, especially I suppose since I probably spend more time on here than on any tracker, and this place is all about learning about all the trackers and joining more than a couple really.
I also think that was the downfall of UK-2. They seemed to still be longing for the UK-T days when their forums were really busy, but they never really seemed to talk much about the actual torrents themselves, only that requests were quickly filled. Again I find the request thing odd, as I'd probably just look on other trackers than request something not found there.
It seems, UK-T was a good forum firstly and then then also a tracker, albeit a pretty average tracker. I've been a member of various forums(non tracker based) in the past and felt pretty at home there but I moved on as I found the internet has changed and I have less time to waste on forums these days!

yup they sent email to their members with this news
and invite to two other trackers from the sysop

So, this and this are the alternatives ? Both with open sign up atm ??

weirdoos

ROFL. There are much better alternatives than the two they suggested. Good ole uk-t peeps, doing things the wrong way to the very end. At the very least they could send their members to better trackers than those.

i am sure it wont be missed much lol....it was a grave yard to say the least lol and then look what they did to there members.
