Another torrent site taken down.
Not sure where to put this:
Another very popular torrent site has just been taken offline. http://btjunkie.org/goodbye.html with no warning at all.

Thats not good, another one will take its place. These crap bills and internet censorship will cause alot of problems that may come for a while but will be removed soon after, much like prohibition was.

OK, This kinda pisses me off...
I have 22 games that are lost in limbo because of the D2D Gamefly Bullshit and I'll likely have to torrent them if I ever wanna play them (with my legal keys of course) But some ass munch wants to take these sites down to protect the consumer? LOL |

In any case from all the emails they sent me i made it out if they cannot get them added they will refund thing is with that is when is to long ?.. I have already explained that i understand the delay but how long i have to wait and nicly explained that till i see most of my game or get refunded i am not buying any more games though them how ever good the service has been before.. reply is some like sorry were doing our best to get every thing sorted... Felt like replying pointlessly saying more like Give me excess to my game i brought for $53 bitches. As for torrents not really bothered don't use them any more although they have real usefulness for a lot of people legally.. If i want some thing i just ask a friend or ask on here.. |

A large music artist recently made a song on SOPA etc. In all honestly, what he says is good enough the convert to US government to free internet worshipers.

you may say there is thousands more but this was one of the better ones with a massive collection.

One site goes down and something will always take its place. Just like when napster started and then got shut down. People jumped on bearshare then kazzaa then limewire and many more. Theft will never quit and as they say "There ain't no rest for the wicked"

Nope. As silly as it sounds sometimes torrenting copyrighted content can be a good thing. In said situations where it is a necessity or a good thing people who actually need it will usually be the ones to get around it.
When all it takes to torrent a new-release blu-ray rip or pre-release game is Googling the title and throwing the word torrent in it there is an issue. My own mom is a pirate and it actually bothers me and not just because she saturates our internet connection with 8gb rips of movies. ![]() ------------ Quote:
