    Welcome back!

    Since a few months ago, Deimos, the site administrator, lacks the necessary time to take care of the website, because of personal matters he's been needing to attend to. For this reason, he has decided to leave the site staff.

    Before leaving, he assigned a new site administrator from among his friends to take care of the site. The old moderator team will continue helping with the site, unchanged. We will try to keep running everything just as it always has been.

    The trackers and website seem to be working properly, and should any issues arise, they will be taken care of as soon as possible. The site might be going on and offline over the next days as we work out any problems.

    Welcome back, and enjoy your stay!

    best news all week, although it will probably be spotty until everything is fixed.

    Can someone tell me what is so special with Demonoid as opposed to something like The Pirate Bay? It seems as if the same content is on all the public torrent sites.

    Demonoid is like some corner of a street market where the goods are cheap and the owner doesn't care if you don't pay for it.

    Bring back Oink. That would be a life changing event for me.

    Seriously Oink was the best torrent server to ever exist, and may be for all time for all we know since these things don't look like they're ready to make a comeback.

    It was hell getting a decent share ratio on that site tho, I had to figure out how to create lossless EAC's of CD's I had that they didn't, mostly bluegrass stuff. I woulda uploaded all my Cat Stevens but those cd's were probably too SUBAR (scratched up beyond all recognition) for Oink's standards.
