Its down for now due to overload or "attacks". Most blame it on slashdot for posting links. But Torrentse has problems almost daily and all the Matrix Reloaded fury was way to much for them. Posting links on ZP doesnt help out either. The good news is they are supposed to be upgrading their hardware and hopefully their bandwidth limit. This is one of the best torrent sites out there. Support 'em if you can

BT is very good at what it is used for. You can get some things with BT very fast. Brand new movies, with WAY higher quality than youll find anywhere else,(especially kazaa, the rips there suck bad) are able to be downloaded the day of release. No selection? You just dont understand what BT is or how to find sources for it either, If you did, you wouldn't make a silly statement like that. BT doesnt have the largest selection, it has the best selection.

We will not continue to support the posting of bittorent links etc, or new threads where a specific torrent is found. You may do that thru PM if you wish. We feel it brings the wrong kind of attention to the site, esp with all of the recent matrix discussion. This is the latest guide lines regarding the exchnage of torrent and warez threads :
>All threads that advertise that warez are available on bitttorent, magnet links and ones where people request files are to be deleted.
>Current threads and posts which direct link to bittorrents, magnet links, warez files are to be edited out and maybe the thread closed.
This is hot off the press, and I am too dead dog tired to get in to it any further tonight, a mod will post more regarding this decision in the near furture, and it is not up for debate.
