Whats up with Demonoid?

[natto fire]

Sorry to revive this, but I am getting the same problems as when this thread was made. Is it just me, or is the site unreachable for anyone else?

Down for me too

 

[Doctor Nyse]

It's been unreachable for a few days on my end

On another note, I've noticed that torrents from Demonoid bring my internet/general system to a crawl whereas with OiNK everything runs completely fine even with downloads in excess of 700 kb/s

Put me down for an oink invite as well if anyone has a spare. I'll be happy to hook anyone who needs one up with a Demonoid invite once they're back up as well.

My Demonoid torrents were running well until about yesterday, but now they're not connecting to the tracker. Ah well, another good site down the series of tubes that make up the Internet.

Same here. I will do the same.

They are probably getting hacked by all of the companies that were hacking the pirate bay on the RIAA and MPAAs wallet until they got sued last week

Torrent site Demonoid downed
Canadian copyright cops suspected
By Nick Farrell: Wednesday, 26 September 2007, 3:42 PM

POPULAR CANADIAN Bittorrent tracker site, Demonoid appears to have been shut down by the Canadian Recording Industry Association.
Both the tracker and the website have been unresponsive for nearly 24 hours. Here at the INQ that just means that we have had a server upgrade, but in Torrent land it is seen as being a sign of doom.
It seems that Demonoid?s Canadian ISP pulled the plug after being pressured by the CRIA. The ISP has told world plus dog that it will shut down the site if it receives any complaints.
According to TorrentFreak the server is still pinging but the ISP might have everything firewalled.
So far there has been no word from Deimos, the founder and the head admin of the site.
Demonoid has been walloped by the anti-piracy crowd before. It shifted its servers from the Netherlands to Canada in June after its ISP was served with legal threats.
In that case the anti-piracy crowd BREIN had asked the ISP to take Demonoid offline and hand over the administrator?s personal details.
It is fairly likely that we have not seen the last of Demonoid. We hear Russia is very pretty at this time of year. µ
