I might as well open a tracker named SceneTorrents or FeedThe.Net or even BlackCatsGames.

It's making them move even worse the fact that TC staff is already working on a reborn site and even announced that.

That won't be the case as Alastor isn't after the money.
The background is he got band several years ago from BTN which then resulted in bans from PTP etc. for something minor I am told. To say he was annoyed would be to put it mildly. TehConnection was one of the few good movie trackers he had access to so was upset at it going down. Unlike most people Alastor has the skill set and finances to run his own trackers sites and that's what he does. Nebulance (ex TransmiTheNet) was him giving the finger to BTN and TehConnection Reborn is him bringing back the movie tracker he loved after waiting for the ex-staff to do it.

Alastor -

I got sick of waiting for a go to tracker for movies and decided it was time to just bloody damn well go for it.
People can say what they like about me but NBL is 3 + years and while it doesn't have the amount of content and members it dos not look like a dogs wet fart either. I do what I do for fun that is all and ask nothing in return and in 3 + years haven't asked for a donation once on NBL. I will never ask for it on the new TehC either.

Ref Feedthe.net

Looks like someone is playing with the FTN domain. If you hit cancel a few times at the login prompt you get to the Register Account page. The old database isn't operational so I don't believe its any ex-staff looking to bring it back.
