The tracker is down

BS Tracker Down since 25/10/2022

What's going wrong ?

The tracker part of the system is down, the one which is kept informed of active seed by your torrent client, so any torrent are considered with no seed.

The current active Staff here cannot stop the tracker's auto-timer from deleting any inactive torrent and we do not have remote access to the tracker.

If this was a financial thing, Staff would have easily helped cover any costs. Unfortunately it's a backend issue and we may need to start fresh if we cannot re-establish remote access to the board and tracker.

Don't panic folks. User Class's Demotions and lost torrents will only be temporary.

A very slight glimmer of hope with updates. We'll be reverting to a backup of the board right around the time the tracker went down. That way the most recent stuff before the temporary upload ban will be back along with everything else uploaded.

Unfortunately it might mean everything posted in the forums for the last month might get lost if we have to resort to a full restore from a backup. Or we may get lucky and find a way of doing just the torrents. We'll figure that out as we get to it soon.

Read carefully.

Do not upload nor download anything while the tracker is offline. Any member who does upload, will be warned.

We do ask all members to keep everything they have in their clients as is, do not delete.
We are requesting this to preserve any back ups for the tracker, that may be required.
