- eminn3m, on 11/05/2009, -0/+156Welcome back! The sites still down though :\
- gdog05, on 11/05/2009, -1/+97Yay!! Oh man, I missed it. Now we'll see what my ratio is...
- mkriss5681, on 11/06/2009, -0/+84BitTorrent just hasn't been the same. Welcome back old friend.

- Yatti420, on 11/05/2009, -4/+71W00000T... AHAHAHAHAHA RIAA\MPAA SUX ON IT..
- roarkmeister, on 11/06/2009, -1/+60weird... utorrent keeps getting an error message saying "Braaaaaiiiiins". Did someone screw up demonoid's resurrection?
- Garofoli, on 11/06/2009, -0/+58All hail Demonoid!
- fattestfoot, on 11/05/2009, -0/+53Hopefully the site will be back up soon.
- alanocu, on 11/05/2009, -0/+39AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have been waiting for this day!!!!! - supermanly, on 11/06/2009, -1/+28Then you just get the ***** public torrent sites which are either not-reliable/infected files or are seeded poorly. With private trackers (e.g. Demonoid) you avoid both of those problems.
- djhash, on 11/06/2009, -0/+21The tracker is. Not the site.. RTFA dude.
- FastTadpole, on 11/06/2009, -1/+21What was the extent of the data lost? I have one up from September 9th but one from September 17th has been deleted so it was somewhere between those dates the restore was made from.
- venom8599, on 11/06/2009, -0/+19Demonoid doesn't ban for low ratios. Worst that'll happen is he'll get chewed out on the forums by an assbag. You can get banned if he's going around an being an asshat on the forums though...
- LedZepAddict, on 11/06/2009, -0/+15I missed the forums so much! Can't wait for it to be back, although my ratio will take a hit, but as long as it gets back soon i couldn't care less.
- adml_shake, on 11/06/2009, -2/+17Man I can't wait, I've been a member for a few years. I really hope my account is still there when they get it back up and running
- MatzahMan, on 11/06/2009, -0/+11The savior has been resurrected!
- weeeitsval, on 11/06/2009, -0/+11Bout goddamn time!
- Asheis, on 11/06/2009, -0/+11because it's only the tracker that is up, not the site.
- netfool, on 11/06/2009, -0/+9If I remember correctly Demonoid said their host was having hardware problems, than the host said they were not. Then Demonoid said they were having a database problem.
- juliusthecat, on 11/06/2009, -0/+9Typically on digg we just post it in them in the comments as I've done a number of times with demonoid. No need to shill your site.
- Haplo, on 11/06/2009, -0/+9Came here to dugg that one up. Was expecting this to be the first comment.
- uremomsnitemare, on 11/06/2009, -0/+9maybe because it's a semi private tracker, not a private tracker.
- djhash, on 11/06/2009, -0/+9Torrents aren't just for "movie, CD, TV show name".rar. Although I can get those faster and prior to you getting yours from *****, or megafail.
- geoman2k, on 11/06/2009, -0/+9BEST NEWS EVER!!!
- MyMainMan, on 11/06/2009, -1/+9 Yeeees!
It has been sorely missed, especially since many other trackers have been down a lot lately. Piratebay is unstable, eztv.it was down several weeks (and more times), mininova has had it's downtimes. Miss all the good comments about new releases in the threads to a torrent. And the search features are the best ones around!
Let's hope for some reseeds of older torrents now! - yellowbean1, on 11/06/2009, -0/+8It's what the networks call sweeps. Starting I think next week, all the networks put on all their best programming to vie for the highest ratings. The advertisers base their spending on these numbers. So the 2-3 week hiatus is all the networks saving up the new eps of their best programs for sweeps. It is antiquated and highly annoying.
- Darrelc, on 11/06/2009, -0/+8Yeah its nice having to pay, finding a legit link, finding a link in the first place, finding old stuff, downloading in groups (dont we all love downloading a 3gig rar and having one of the .rxx files gone) 'replying to forum threads' to see links etc.
Rapidshare / Megaupload are good (got a 3 month MU account myself for megavideo mainly) but they're not a replacement for bittorent. - L0stm4n, on 11/06/2009, -0/+8Mininova is not a tracker
- Darrelc, on 11/06/2009, -0/+7btw, only slighly on topic but can some american explain why theres been a 3 week break in decent tv? (house etc), it seems to randomly happen a few times a year, something to do with thanksgiving?
- pertifly, on 11/06/2009, -0/+7That's because the site isn't back up, the tracker is.
- Digglet69, on 11/06/2009, -0/+6for both those sites you need an account to download it "faster"
- Dugglous, on 11/06/2009, -3/+9If Obama's taken it, you wouldn't need invite or wait around for open registration to join. He would just open it up to everyone as Obama is a "socialist" and Demonoid is maintained under the system of socialism.
- iBleeedOrange, on 11/06/2009, -0/+6Gah, I had a friend give me a key in july, i know my account will probably be gone, I just hope he can give me another key =/
- ramy33, on 11/06/2009, -0/+6I finally met someone with a Demonoid account and they agreed to invite me. That was the day Demonoid went down.
Hopefully I'll be able to get invited soon. - Sequence, on 11/06/2009, -0/+6I've been using Demonoid for a couple of years and I can't recount the number of times they lost data, the website is great for all its rare & unique content but when you submit torrents, its frustrating... Some of the torrent I submitted long time ago were still active and seeding somehow, I don't know how this is even possible - thanks to the many seeders I guess...
- tj111, on 11/06/2009, -1/+7I have some, but the website is still down. So....sorry? http://www.demonoid.com/
- Malnilion, on 11/06/2009, -0/+6The joke is on those who don't realize that site != tracker.
- MarrowMan, on 11/06/2009, -0/+6I REALLY need to catch up on my comic book reading, this is great news.
- motley2828, on 11/06/2009, -0/+6Hail Demonoid!!!!!!!
- Darrelc, on 11/06/2009, -0/+5Cheers for clarifying that - wankers.
- geoman2k, on 11/06/2009, -0/+5i don't really see what is so low-quality about it, it has the best selection of audiobook torrents i've seen and there are always a lot of seeders. i'm not saying you are wrong, since i'm not a member of any other private trackers to compare, but i'm wondering what is so bad about it. i'd also like to know what you consider i high-quality tracker so i can start looking in to getting invites.
a long time ago i was on a site called torrentit.com and it was amazing. the only problem with it was that there were so many power seeders that it was hard to raise your ratio because everything was seeded so well already. alas, the site went down and when they came back they sent my invite to my old college e-mail which i didn't have access to anymore. - ducttape36, on 11/06/2009, -0/+4on a semi related topic: http://digg.com/music/F_K_THE_RIAA_Band_Gives_Away ...
sorry for whoring, but i just want to give away as much of my band's music for free as i can. please help? Or at least listen. - DeaderThanElvis, on 11/06/2009, -2/+6There is only one return, and it ain't of the King, it's of the Jedi.
- toadshortage, on 11/06/2009, -3/+7And risk my account on the basis of you maintaining a decent ratio, ***** that.
- Long189, on 11/06/2009, -3/+7If anyone has an invite, I would seriously appreciate it :D
- silfiriel, on 11/06/2009, -1/+5HIP HIP HOOREY!!! wait a minute... site maintenance.....WHAT KIND OF A SICK JOKE IS THIS?????
- LowROI, on 11/06/2009, -0/+3I didn't read the article before commenting. I was just so full of many different emotions. Digg me down.
- crystl, on 11/06/2009, -1/+4I'd love to have one too.
- TheVirus, on 11/06/2009, -0/+3*clap* *clap* *clap*
