Donkax is down, maybe for ever. If you are into BitTorrent let the guy who runs it know, show your support. As his site was by far the best place to go for torrents.

I know, that was the best Bittorent site out there. Now I have to visit like 10 others just to make up for what they had on Donkax. I hope it is up soon. On their homepage it just says it was a DDOS attack and their ISP was suspended for a week so I doubt it will be down forever. If it is that will really suck and I would tear that Hex guy to pieces. What a stupid jerk.

Well I'm not familiar with IRC, but that would be the best place now for torrents. Just gonna have to sit tight and hope this guy finds a new place. Damn, that site was getting better by the day.

I sent a message to him, to tell him it was only one asshole who came to ruin the party, most of the people there loved that place. I don't understand why anybody would be against Donkax, just because it's taking business away from their IRC channels? The cake was getting bigger, BitTorrent is growing into something huge.

to be fair Donkax was probably the best Bit-Torrent site but the same torrents can more or less be found served on IRC with a bit of determination.

Exactly. Wouldn't it be better to have everybody - and all the torrents - in one place, rather than scattered over different sites and channels?

It might be down for good since it hadn't been up in a long time.

The Link is forwarded to http://donkax.homeunix.com/ which is a home computer serving as a domain.

The domain name "donkax.homeunix.com" was received for free from http://dyndns.org

Not very safe if you ask me.

Just thought I'd provide that info.
