    BTW- Clutch, if you don't want this in the forum here I understand. Please delete. Just trying to help the MANY Oink users who have no clue why the site seemed to have disappeared.

    Also, if you don't wanna have to re-download all of your torrents, follow this simple step.

    What is so special about Oink? I just use Azureus or BitComet. Or is Oink a place where you actually get the torrents?

    i heard its going to be down for the rest of the week they are changing servers or something

    yes oink is one of the best sites, insanely fast downloads, only bad thing is to keep up the ratio but a lot of torrents arnt popular enough to generate massive downloads. looking forward to the new oink.

    As the father of the clutchfans oink contingency (ya jk im just being a jackoff), I have to say I have been fairly impressed with the ratios of everyone I have invited. However, one thing I have noticed from a glance at my invite tree is that most the people you guys have been inviting have not been keeping solid ratios. Honestly I dont really give a **** and im sure you dont either, but it might be worth at least mentioning to them to keep an eye on their ratio... the better ratio they have, the better download speeds YOU have.

    ps check out the new tucker max book that is now on oink. also I suggest checking out the max brooks audio books (the max thing is just a coincidence)

    Kinda wishing I didn't invite the following from here, as they don't seem to even try to upload-

    arcticsilver 0.017 582.16 MB 9.65 MB
    myotuneric 0.018 4.92 GB 91.98 MB

    Just aweful. :(

    I'm not even "clever" yet I have a 2.068 ratio with over 56 GB's uploaded in my 57 weeks there.


    'Splain? :confused:

    I wouldn't put too much pressure on people who can't keep up their ratios. One dude I invited here cheated, and I lost my invites because of that.

    ok, maybe I didn't write that as well as I could. Basically, the more they leave their client on, the more opportunity you get to grab the file from them.

    Sorry, to distract from the thread, but can anyone hook me up with an oink invite. I've always had good ratios in the past, but stopped dling for a year because I didn't have high speed internet.

    I asked this in the torrent thread but nobody answered, so i'll ask here..

    Why is it that my downloads don't upload? Is it because my port isn't set correctly or is it that my downloads just aren't popular? I assume it's not the latter because I've downloaded some popular stuff and it isn't uploading. My ratio is going down the toilet..

    I need an email addy.

    If sent, please promise to try your best to keep a positive ratio?

    Could somebody send me an Oink also?

    I have a 1.7 ratio at Demonoid. Kungfurocketman is the sn.

    I hate hit and runs, so I never do it to others.

    To be honest, I'm amazed sites like Oink and PirateBay don't change domains every other week. They have to know they're operating with a HUGE bullseye on their backs.

    Oh, and incidentally, if any kind soul would like to send an Oink invite my way, I'd be grateful. I have a 1.72 and 1.4 ratio on two separate sites that supply *ahem* mature materials. I'd post their names here, but I'd hate to tarnish my sterling reputation. ;)

    Send me your email address and please, make sure to not over do it early on. Keeping up a good ratio is not easy.
