PassThePopcorn Community,
TL;DR: PTP is still alive, and there will not be any data loss. We've been preparing to rebuild our infrastructure, but a donation drive will be necessary in order to do so.
How we got here:
- Due to unforseen personal circumstances, our long-term producer paperk has had to step away. paperk was a beacon of stability, security, and resilience during his 10+ year tenure, and PTP would not be what it is today without his leadership. We thank him and wish him the very best for the future!
- paperk had already been overseeing a transition of his role to experienced individuals, with the goal of having him step aside completely. His departure came a few months earlier than planned though, meaning the transition was not fully complete.
- Bringing the site back to its full operational capabilities will mean purchasing some new hardware and rebuilding infrastructure. Due to the strict security requirements we have in place, this will take some time; The safety of our staff and members remains our top priority when operating our service.
- We're also taking this opportunity to perform some long-needed behind the scene updates
- As we progress, official updates will be posted here
PTP continues to be the largest movie library in existence, and we're dedicated to continuing its legacy. The generosity of PTP's members has kept the site afloat for a long time, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for that.
If you're able to help us continue this legacy, please consider donating to help this recovery progress. Those who do will receive our eternal gratitude as always, as well as site donor perks once there's a place again for you to benefit from them.
