scenehd... still my got to for HD when dmca hits newsgroups

Mine was torrentleech in 2008

I think ScienceHD was the first private tracker I entered, it was "in my opinion" a fantastic tracker for all things science related, looking back at this review, the screenshots bring back a lot of memories, I can still remember being admitted into hospital one day, then when I was discharged days later one of the first things I wanted to do was to catch up with the latest releases on the site, upon trying to access it I noticed the site wouldn't respond, I waited and waited and days later thought about doing a google search, it never occurred to me to search sooner, eventually it was a reddit post I stumbled upon which said ScienceHD had closed down without warning, no reason as to why, I was really gutted.

Well I found out that Zamunda counts so Zamunda is my first private torrent traker.

Hey all. First private tracker was TorrentDay. Been a member for over 2 years and was invited by a friend. Love it!

Think it was Demonoid, many moons ago now.

Demonoid

Mine was BTgigs.

The first tracker I registered to, if you consider it private (I don't use it anymore so i'm not sure if it has open registration at times anymore) was Demonoid.
