Thread: tvtorrentz.org

is tvtorrentz.org down ? I can't access the website or connect to tracker. Can someone let me know how to contact the staff



Thanks!

Yeah the site is down..

Be patient, It is normal for trackers to have periodic downtimes

always check on IsUp.Me -> Check if your website is down or up?
if any site is down for everybody or only you

yeah its still down i agree with moonstone that trackers do have periodic downtimes for the upgradation and other purposes..so there's nothing to worry about so be patient and clam

for future reference if you wanna check something like this just go here :- Down For Everyone Or Just Me -> Check if your website is down or up?

Still seems to be down....

still down. ip is wrong 127.0.0.1

"Be patient, It is normal for trackers to have periodic downtimes"

LOL! Been patient for 6 days now. Seriously, who think it takes 6 days to do a simple upgrade? It's normal to have some hours downtime now and then, perhaps as much as a day - but 6 days!?!

And no point in using IsUpMe tools or whatever - is it down, it's down! That's it. Playing the paranoid games don't appeal to me. I know if my internet connection is down or not (it's not btw). I have cmd and trace commands to see where things goes "south". When I ping and get reply from localhost, well, then something is clearly WRONG! That site's DNS info has been fried!

Does not anybody know one or more of the admins at TvTz? Some serious replies would be most welcome. I want to know if this site is a goner or is it coming back up again?

Thanks! Keep tor rent ing!

Site/Tracker: Down. ETA: Hopefully soon, not yet, blizzard said, when its done.

Now, that SUCKS!

TvTz is moving on ...

First, let's get some rumors out of the way. No, we weren't hacked or taken down.

Running a site like TvTz is a constant cat and mouse game. You have to use lots of security layers in between you and the site. It takes its toll let me tell you that. You plant disinformation and lies all over the place to avoid being pinned down by profilers. People are constantly trying to figure out who you really are, by adding together your answers to seemingly small and unrelated questions. They remember what you answer, so you better have prepared your lies in advance and memorized them. For most this is not that big of a deal, some don't even try to hide at all. In my case I have loved ones that would suffer a lot if this was ever pinned on me, so I lied my ass off. My deepest apologies for that!

So what happened then? Well, there was an incident at the front-end of our setup, and normally it would have just been replaced within a day or so, but this time it felt different. I realized I was tired of hiding and lying. It was time for a change. Unfortunately this all took place while I had a personal incident in the family, which delayed this message. I apologize for that as well!

TvTz is a fantastic community and now is the time for us to move on to a new technology. Something that uses a decentralized setup (meaning no central server). There are plenty of systems to choose from, and after doing some heavy investigating for a while we've picked RetroShare as our new platform. It's far from finished but it has come a long way already, and we expect it to continue to grow in the future. It's a F2F system (friend-to-friend) and you can read more about it here.

We really hope to see as many of you as possible on our new path towards our original goal. It will be a fun journey!

Whatever you decide, I want to thank you all for your dedication! And staff, this could absolutely not have been done without you! You are simply fantastic! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I want to end this final statement with a special quote from our founder XXXX, whose legacy this whole community was really built around:

Be nice! It's so much more fun that way!

It was never possible to donate to TvTz. Instead we were encouraged to donate to our favorite charity instead. Feel free to continue to do so!

Thank you all for everything! Take care and see you all out there!



Sincerely yours,

GOD
