Christmas Comes Early For BitTorrent – Demonoid is Back
Written by enigmax on December 13, 2009As millions of people wait for the arrival of Christmas in just a couple of weeks time, the festivities have come early for BitTorrent fans. A few hours ago the mighty Demonoid fully returned and the good news is that there appears to be little data loss. Users are feverishly uploading fresh torrents right now.
In September, Demonoid, one of the world’s most important and well-loved trackers, went down with overwhelming hardware problems.
An update on the situation was not good, with the site owners forecasting severe data loss. Some user data and torrent files were predicted to be lost forever and the site’s code had been seriously damaged.
Then, on November 5th, Demonoid’s tracker began to function again, which was followed by another announcement by the site owners. None of the negative rumors and speculation were true – Demonoid would soon return.
“The parts of the site code that got deleted are being rewritten and should be ready soon. We are also working to try and minimize the data loss as much as possible,” they announced.
Since then, nothing much has happened, but a few hours ago Demonoid users discovered they are to get an early Christmas present.
At around 1:30am EST, Demonoid reappeared and started accepting logins from registered users.
“Hello! We are currently testing the newly written code. More downtime is hopefully not necessary, but might be a possibility. Welcome back, we missed you!” the admins said in an announcement.
In respect of the concerns over data loss, it appears that the latest database entries run to Friday September 11th 2009, but of course, Demonoid users are already uploading new torrents, reported to be as many as 150 thus far.
A TorrentFreak reader who as been following the situation since the site’s return told us: “Some users on the IRC channel (which still is active) report not being able to log in. Those that can log in have all noticed that their ratios were pretty much what they remembered them to be before the long downtime. I was able to log in just fine on my first attempt with correct ratio as well.”
As the site deals with various issues, it became a little unstable around 2 to 3 hours after its initial return and then went down again around 4:00am EST.
Although Demonoid’s RSS feeds aren’t functioning, at the time of writing the site appears to be running again, and displaying their famous demon logo all decked out in a santa hat.
Christmas really has come early for Demonoid fans. All that is need now is a gift for everyone in the community – a period of open registrations.

Great news! :)
FTW
Yaaaaaayyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!
I’m so glad I can stop trying to find alternatives to Demonoid, ’cause there’s no such thing!
DAE notice it went down on 9/11 ?
great!!!
Hello, Is it possible to get an invitation? i used to be a member but my account was lost in the damages. Please if someone can give me an invitation. Email me at liam-hall-1992@live.co.uk
Oh Demonoid…your torrents are
so much doper than
all the gah-bage the others
pander to. In your humble
archives hide great treasures,
we happily welcome you back and
leave the haters to sit alone with
their doubt (it is all they have).
Yes the Phoenixoid rises again!
Wow!
Today’s a day to cherish, but the site isn’t loading up here in India. :(
It came back up around 1:30 >AM< EST, you mean. -_^
I’m happy that’s it’s back though I can only see a white blank page.
@ 11
If you see a blank white page, hit F5 to refresh ONCE. Things seem to still be a little flaky. If once isnt enough, then stop and wait till later. Don’t hammer the server by spamming refreshes.
a perfect Hanukkah present for our friends in Hollywood
YEAHHHHHH!!! I waited so much time for demooid! I am so happy that Demonoid is again! FTW! great news! Demonoid 4 ever!
At last !!! :)
Welcome back.
Yesssss!
an early xmas present.
I think its flipping hilarious that all you kids actually think this is the same site, and not just a really easy way to harvest IP addresses and prosecuting you.
Have fun paying your fines kiddies.
I love Domonoid
Hopefully the activity will come back soon!
This a good day for the torrent community!!
cool, but have they fixed their ratio tracking issues????
thats the only reason i didn’t stay with demonoid, my ratio did not update accurately :(
but i can login so hopefully its better now…
@17
LOLWUT
all i want for christmas is Demonoid ,, dam cool
my ratio never was correct because of vpn’s and different ip’s that i use
the page is white when I load demonoid :(
does anyone know why?
@24
see #12
@ Peter Mark
Why would someone concerned about not wanting to get all caught up in an IP harvesting net be posting on freakin Torrentfreak?
Just watch whose digital hands you shake and you should be fine. It’s not the site; it’s the peer traffic.
Proxies are good too.
not work in the netherlands
Its up and so am I.
I am the USA and its up !
I am Ireland and its up :)
was pingable a minute ago and now it ain’t ,, guess there is still a bit a work to be done :D
thank god.
to much traffic its slow now good job fags
@12 and @24
Some countries are blocked. I can access the site fine through google translate proxy, but not directly.
fuck yea!
i need the demon.. screw TL!
Demonoid is up, pirate bay is up, all the decent private sites are up . Happy Xmas everyone!
well its down again good job
It’s not working here in New Zealand. Not to worried about that though. Should be fully operational soon….I new Santa was the man
my country is spain works ok
aint working.. will wait
It’s not just you! http://demonoid.com looks down from here.
does not work either in proxy
will wait
it worked long enough for me to upload one torrent/add description and now its down again.
They’ve been down for months now, and are running off of some freshly baked code.
Some initial technical difficulties aren’t too hard to imagine.

dude above is already checking out encryted bloging
@Peter Mark: 0/10, would not be trolled by again.
It’s nice to see that the Noid is back, but things still seem to be a little shaky. I can’t access it here from the UK or through my Dutch VPN. Hopefully those issues will be sorted out soon, I’ve been missing it.
Oh, and Merry Christmas to the MPAA and RIAA ;D
Definitely down for New Zealand right now. Oh well ;D.
does anyone now a good proxy to use with demonoid? it’s seems the acces is blocked in Romania
up and down like a tarts knickers atm here but all good, welcome back demonoid :)
7:17AM Florida, dns errors and connection timeouts.
“one of the world’s most important [...] trackers”
I wouldn’t call it that! It’s important, but not one of the worlds MOST important!
I love Demonoid!
wowwww…wat a news!! no need to search for private tracker invites frm now!!!!!

Its invites…
“As the site deals with various issues, it became a little unstable around 2 to 3 hours after its initial return and then went down again around 4:00am EST.”
That should be : As thousands of TF-readers hit the Demonoid-server within minutes of it’s reappearance and started to upload torrents …
You could have given them 24 hours or something to get everything up and running

To all you geniuses saying it’s “down” in your country, STFU! The site is not “down.” It’s simply being overwhelmed with traffic, and and their servers can’t fulfill every single request every single time. Stop clicking the refresh button, go make some tea, or get some sleep. You’ll have much better luck getting on tomorrow or the next day when the initial excitement has died down.
all I get is timeout errors, from various locations in Europe..
invites … of course .. dingdong me! .. they won’t last too long
Oh, and to “Anonymous” @13:
Hey, thanks for bringing anti-semitism into the conversation, idiot.
Maybe we rule Hollywood because such a large number of us are creative geniuses.
Now is the time, for all to seed till your balll’s glow!!! :D
Is anyone actually able to connect right now?
And to those who are able to get on there, I sincerely hope you’ll have a look at my uploads:
http://www.demonoid.com/files/?uid=1750548&seeded=2
Some of them may be showing “no seeds,” but fear not, as I’ve been actively seeding for a few hours now.
If you like super-cheesy sci-fi and monster movie nonsense, you’ll like my uploads. Lotsa Japanese monsters and super-heroes, and lotsa schlock!
I think that the public sites are utter garbage for scrubs, but Demonoid is the one exception.
As far as semi-private massive public sites goes, its hands down head and shoulders above the rest and completely in a league of its own.
Good to see the big D back :)
Working in Australia ^^!
its up in Florida finally hurray
And I thought I wouldn’t get anything for Christmas!
Ok, back up in New Zealand
Great news.
Best Christmas gift ever.
@58
Not only did I “Finally” connect but I actually was able to log-in…
all my stats intact…everything looks good!
I can access it (from the UK). It did give a white page a couple of minutes ago but refreshing took care of that.
Try http://www.demonoid.cc
this working for me
i am so happy
long live torrents
Great news!
Welcome back Demonoid, you’ve certainly been missed
I’ve already started to reseed my torrents
working in Malaysia! ^^
Phew! With Mininova out and TPB looking sick, I was starting to get worried!
It’s great to have you back, Demonoid :)
Hello, Is it possible to get an invitation please? i used to be a member but my account was lost. Please if someone can give me an invitation. Email me at matthew-croan@live.co.uk
Many Thanks & Merry Christmas & Happy New Year
YAHOOO !!!
Demonoid is so much better in Content than any other tracker.
I hope People come back on demonoid.
Kudos…
still down in Philippines
HAIL demonoid
works for me in UK. took a few attempts though. obviously very bloody busy!
/me starts drinking early
Yeahhhhhhhh!!! A miracle in time for Christmas.
Still down in Holland
Demonoid is not yet working in The Netherlands/Holland
Lots of 500 errors…there is still more work to be done..
From the Netherlands, only receive a white page. Tried OpenDNS too with no luck.
Demonoid still down in india. But fingers cross will get it soon i believe.
Blank in Holland.
Used a web proxy, which worked.
Sooooooo glad the ‘noid is back! For all you bitches that want to claim first check the time mark on this post. Demonoid is up
T hats the best ‘first’ you could have! To everyone grumbling about it not being up yet, as someone else said give it some time it will settle down.
Also I believe the troll at Dec 13, 2009 at 13:18 by Pecker Mark is our favorite troll and FUD prognosticator Raisined Mind just with a different and gayer sounding name.(apologies to the cool gay people of the world)
Demonoid may be back but if it is closed to the public, i.e.registration required, it might as well stay closed. I am wary of sites that require you to register to access it. There are sites that are open to the public so I don’t give a hoot if they are closed.
No way of getting in for the dutchies it seems. Back to this again, didn’t they solve that problem ages ago?:D Back to an old build, back to the old problems.
unreal
iiittttsss bbbaaakkk :D
@87
But, um, that’s the point. It’s only semi-private though, since it’s not really all that hard to get in. They open registrations every once in awhile.
Is it just me or btjunkie’s search engine is acting weird?
Down for me in Holland. That is to say, the site loads, but all I get is a blank page. Works fine through a proxy.
Is Demonoid doing the blocking or is my ISP?
Finally!
Exactly one month ago today I had posted a comment on TF saying “Currently I’m betting on a full return of their website before the first of December.” So I was off by two weeks, but returned it has indeed! Sweet!!
And now I’d like to sing a little Christmas song (think “Jingle Bells”) especially for this occasion, here we go:
Demonoid, Demonoid, Has Returned Today
Oh What Fun It Is To Be On Demonoid, Hurray!
demoniod is in essence a public tracker… even my seedbox company frowns upon that site.
if all of you demoniod/piratebay fanboys ever tried a real private tracker, you’d never tout those sites again.
enigmax: “All that is need now is a gift for everyone in the community – a period of open registrations.”
I wholeheartedly agree!
If anyone is feeling charitable, I’d really appreciate an invitation. :)
Please send it to poblasai@gmail.com
Thanks.
This is really a Christmas present for me also my account and my ratio are just fine :)). Welcome back Demo we missed you sorely.
WOOO HOOOOOO IM BACK ON LOGGED IN AND EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!! :):):)
I’m a member and when I got the white page I did what I usually do for any site–and I got right in: Hit your back arrow.
Worked for me, anyway.
Demonoid… this time with MAFIAA tracking tools fully functional…
It’s only a matter of time until demonoid does go fully public. Private trackers are great and all, particularly for rare/genre-specific content, but BT is a numbers game. That’s why TPB is god… a higly impressive variety of well-seeded stuff.
During the few months I used Demonoid before its fall I was not impressed by any hard-to-finds. At least, any that had more than 2 or 3 seeds at any given time.
Inite would be appreciated (xqyzii@gmail.com) as I can’t seem to login anymore. I can give out a wave invite in return if you need one :)
Santa really does exist!!!!
Tell me why I should care or why I need this site?
I would love to get an invitation. Thanks a lot if anyone sends! ajdahoo11@gmail.com
This is the best Christmas present ever!!!
post moderated
Yay!
They can’t have lost much data at all – my account still works and I only got the invite a week or so before they went down!
Merry Christmas!!! This is the best news we’ve had in a long time.
Greeting from InDiA…i can confirm that Demonoid is up and running !!!
Peace …
WOOOOOOOOOOOO
I was so happy i even donated :D
Would anyone be able to send me an invite?
thx

#102 Debby Downer: “It’s only a matter of time until demonoid does go fully public. Private trackers are great and all, particularly for rare/genre-specific content, but BT is a numbers game.”
For rare/genre-specific content, emule/KAD network is even better still, even though it is rather slow.
IMHO, with magnets links, DHT and PEX, big torrent hosting sites a la Demonoid’s days are numbered.
They’ll probably morph into directories of magnet links or something similar… until distributed BT’s protocol grows the ability to search and index stuff directly, bypassing any central indexer. But we’re not there yet.
YAY! the RSS feeds are back up! Now I can go back to sleep and not miss what’s been recently uploaded!
Hey guys, could you please send me an invite ?
thedrys@hotmail.fr
Thanks
I only plan on giving out invites onlyto people I personally know! As we all know from the MediaDefender email leak, they had a presence on all the sites,even the so called private sites! I might be crying wolf here, but just the same I plan on being cautious. Just my two cents.
@ 17: Boooh!!
are you scared now, degetschko???
up and strong here in CH. welcome back, noids…
the site is up for me (just had to clear cashe) but the forums are not functional as of now.
yay! it’s up and running in Canada. don’t forget to donate peeps, all that work had to be expensive.
Not working in France. :’(
Most excellent. ^^
Cannot reach the site from India:(…Only a blank screen is visible….
Oh, great news. Accidentally I have checked not long time ago and I found that demonoid is back. So here I am, trying to express my happiness. Welcome back demonoid. Welcome back people running this community.
Awesome news, I’ve sorely missed Demonoid. Welcome back :)
Haha, it came back up right after I spent the night searching for torrents for my foreign film class. Spent hours going through shady websites just to get a copy of demonoid torrents.
For those who still can’t access the site, it is most likely a DNS issue. Try going to:
http://62.149.24.66
You most likely won’t be able to log-in, but if it works then it confirms my suspicions. Try clearing your DNS cache and resetting your router. To clear the dns cache in windows, open a command prompt windows (windowskey+R, then type “cmd”) and enter the command:
ipconfig /flushdns
It so does not work. I can’t log in. I even tried password reset and used that and it didn’t work. On more than one browser.
please can I have a demonoid invitation. Thanks a lot if anyone sends
ghucha@googlemail.com
TPB is better then demonoid.
i don’t care if they are back or not.
Welcome back Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Some countries are blocked (mine being one of them) but I was still able to access the site and find torrents via proxy. I hope the issue is fixed soon, but for now I’m just ecstatic about Demonoid’s return.
awesome!
i am egypt and it is Up
And it works better than ever
Yeah !!!!!!!!
Hopefully Torrentfreak goes down, wate of time blog, stirring up trouble ..demonoids back , so keep ya mouth shut and keep it on the down low .. too late big mouth torrentfreaks about
its working in india!!!

“It’s only a matter of time until demonoid does go fully public. Private trackers are great and all, particularly for rare/genre-specific content, but BT is a numbers game. That’s why TPB is god… a higly impressive variety of well-seeded stuff.”
but demonoid is public enough to get the numbers and private enough so that some people are grateful of their account and keep their ratios high.
demonoid’s greatest asset is the lossless classical rips, although many other sites (waffles/what/lztr etc.)
@17 Peter Mark
If FUD is all you have then you would be better off playing elsewhere.
We don’t care!
Glad to see the droid up again! W00t!
Hell yes!!
Thank you Santaman!!!
yeeeeees finaly!
WOOOHOOOO party shake and bake!!!!!!!!!!
Welcome back Demonoid! Long live!! :D
YAHOOOOOO!
Hurray!
Hurray!
2010??????????????
can all you scumbags not hog the sites bandwidth jeeeez
If anyone has an invite and is feeling kind, I would love one. shadowpigpants@gmail.com
#17: I find it funny that it’s always you Reasoned Mind/neo.styles/Peter Dork or whatever other names you use who calls us kids with no jobs and who whine all day…
could it be that it’s actually you who is a kid in your mom’s basement with no real job? Projecting your thoughts on us and all that?
This is great news!
@scurvydogg38
I haven’t seeded demonoid in a few months and my balls are still glowing! What does that mean?
demonoid was my home when it went down i starting using mininova now its gone lol
now im using piratebay
h33t
extratorrent
but now at last i think i can come back to my favourite site
hope that all the uploaders upload there :)
hey 1 question my id was maybe year old
would it be deleted ???
error message at the moment.
AAAAND they are blocking Brazil again. COME ON, we’re one of the few countries without problems with anti-piracy, why block us?
Hurray for Demonoid!
@wesley:
cos the brazilians are CHEATS
It runs, moohaha!
fuck yeah demonoid is back!
It’s now working in New Zealand. Finally the best torrent site is back online! Whats the bet that the MPAA or RIAA will take a stab at Demonoid, right when its at its weakest and most vulnerable stage?
not loading in India – blank page…
@155 and @156
demonoid is working fine with my brazilian ISP. all i need is an invite =D
YAHOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I hate to sound like i’m begging, but if anyone is so inclined to send me an invite out of holiday spirit, I’d greatly appreciate it
slapo13@yahoo.com
Well, I can log on. Can’t do much else, either the page is blank or it tells me the server is too busy — immediately. However, this is still grey news.
Do I feel tears in my eyes? Definitely YES! They are back! A wonderful Christmas present indeed! :D
All the whiners and conspiracy theorist need to STFU and go to some other torrent site.
lol, i’m still logged in :D and my account was not deleted, w00t!
@Matthew
As Demonoid is run from Ukraine I don’t know what they can do except make more useless gestures!
On a side note: One of my best friends is a kiwi and he’s got this great story about how penguin farming is all the shizzle down under! He has all the dumb blondes here stateside thinking he is a rich penguin farmer! LOL
Great friend, lotta laffs, sux at poker though!
Oh how i’ve missed you demonoid my good friend, how i’ve missed you.
Welcome back.
“DAE notice it went down on 9/11 ?”
at first i was like so what? then i realised wht you meant and that is one random coinkydink.
For those of you who can’t seem to reach the website at all, give the following a try, it might just do the trick for you:
Close all of your web browser’s open windows, and then:
1. Click on “Start”
2. Click on “Run”
3. Type “cmd” (w/o the quotation marks) and press enter
4. In the command window type “ipconfig /flushdns” (w/o the quotation marks) and press enter
5.a If done correctly it should say “Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.”
5.b If you receive an error “Could not flush the DNS Resolver Cache: Function failed during execution.”, follow the Microsoft KB Article 919746 to enable the cache. The cache will be empty, however this will allow successful cache-flush in future.
6. Still in the command window type “net stop dns” (w/o the quotation marks) and press enter
7. Now type “net start dns” (w/o the quotation marks) and press enter
8. Type “exit” (w/o the quotation marks) and press enter
9. Open your web browser and go to http://www.demonoid.com
Good Luck!
yahoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Happy Time
i seeded a torrent for over 100GB and uploaded to some places so that when demonoid come back it would still be alive.
this one
http://www.demonoid.com/files/details/1036415/
what do i get? :D
Oh Joy!!! Weeeeeee!
I no longer have an account!!! agh!!!
Okay, I have about 500GB or so to re-upload if I get an invite. I want to see how much damage is done.
mhawki@yahoo.com
thanks in advance.
Great news! Momentous indeed ! Although I havent used the site much in the past, a reup is of paramount importance these times !
@Dario #170

I’m feeling generous. How about a reacharound? :P
Servers just overloaded, and will be timing out like it always did.
Lot of people swamping the site now, so be patient, wait in line, and download and upload some torrents when youre in
Fuxx yeah! Awesome news!!! Welcome back Demonoid!
Damnit, my account got deleted and I can’t get back in! Oye…
Nice, but it isn’t loading or working for me. The page doesn’t even shows up. =(
That’s not the real Demonoid, You’re all Idiots
That’s great news!!! w00t!!!!!!! :D
Wait! Why the excitement? I’m not a member of Demonoid! LOL!!!!! :D Let’s hope they open up registrations for a little while, as a return gift. :) Otherwise, I’ll have to resume writing that letter to Santa…
Upload the FLAC music to another tracker for me, people. (TPB, KickAss, h33t, etc.)
I would appreciate it. ;)
YES!! DEMONOID IS BAACK

That isn’t such great news.
Does anyone know of any demonoid admins who aren’t complete arseholes?
Yeahhhhhh !!!
is anyone else getting blocked if you try and load it from an “OVH” i.p ?
WOOHOO!
It’s a pity though that the servers are overloaded though. Get nothing but “Server is too busy” error messages.

@197

:D i will keep on sending invites till i finish them :P
That’s not the REAL demonoid…YOU’RE ALL IDIOTS…
The king is back…
Love you Demonoid
A hearty ‘Welcome Back’ to the Demon. You were missed. =]
Works for me.. This is a nice Christmas present.. The mpaa\riaa got a piece of Demonoid coal..
@203
yeah, its the largest. and we will make it so large, that the world will have only two kinds of people :
1) the ones with demonoid account.
2) mpaa/riaa/brein. :P
^^Option 1 looks good happy seeding .
Yay! Demonoid, I love you.
I’m very happy to hear this, glad things are back working for those guys. :)
YES!! This is great news, I’m so glad to have Demonoid back. Now I don’t have to keep looking though different sites for one thing.
Let’s all do our part, guys. Give out invites to people who can be trusted and who will seed. Download to your heart’s content so we can get things seeded again.
Viva le Demonoid!
UK SPIDERMAN show us your proof! Do you have any at all or are just spreading FUD! If you do have evidence to prove your statements then do the community a favor and post them, otherwise STFU!
Now if only they would make the tracker and the site more private.
People shouldn’t be giving invite codes unless they know the person.
If a person you’ve invited gets banned, so do you.
Also, people shouldn’t be helping noobs out. That’s just more people that the Demonoid staff have to explain basic stuff to.
site is bizzy tho my torrents are showing no seeds to it,, hopefulyl it will pick back up soon
this keeps showing on the site as well
Server too busy
The action you requested could not be completed because the server is too busy.
Please try again in a few minutes
Do not click reload – Use the following links
Clicking reload will get you this page again

Agreed….it still shows it is hosted in Ukraine as always….so….as he said above^.

Got a few busy messages but was able to login and ratio is fine.
Welcome back Demonoid.. that was kinda weird.. save a backup next time k? lol
Finally!
Yupiii y aun tengo mi cuenta jojojo
Nice news! WB Demonoid!
are all u corperate freaks getting this stuff ,, ;) ,, demonoid is back!!
I’ve been checking my DEMONOID bookmark a few times a day, everyday for the last 4 months.
I just looked at my “history” and it turns out that I checked it at 1:43 last night so I guess I made the discovery 10min after they went back online……great!
Lamenoid sucks monkey ballz
It seems that the site is down again.Got a HTTP500 error on screen.
(means that the server is under maintainance or has an internal problem). I enter the web from the Netherlands and wonder if people from other countries face the same problem.
Finalllly, Welcome back Demonoid.

I’ll tell you “What’s up”, The Pirate Bay is!
It can be reached through these URLs:
http://thepiratebay.org
https://thepiratebay.org
Have Fun!
The forums still appear to be down but that’s OK as they don’t know what they’re doing in there. I’m hoping they’ll explain the rules to their own moderators or get rid of the dead wood and get some new moderators for the site. It’s pretty sad they make a big deal about not allowing dupes but then won’t actually delete them when they’re uploaded.
While it’s nice to have the site back up and running, having about 40% Server Too Busy error messages is just too high. Even getting timeout errors on the tracker as well.
Oh, and anyone who published their email address up there, I went ahead and submitted them to about 100 child porn mail lists. Hopefully you’ll learn the lesson. :D
YAY it is up!
it is up but i’m getting too busy message , untill it will be fully working you can browse some good quality torrents here http://h33t.com/userdetails.php?id=128558
If anybody is looking for demonoid invites shoot me an email at adam**_martin*** [@t] att**.net obviously remove the *’s
I would prefer an exchange for an invite to another popular torrent site
Waoooooooooooooooo great
Great! All I need now is an invite.
Greeeat! Seems to have high serverload though…
works here in N.S. Canada frequent “server busy” and HTTP:500 errors but it is up more than it’s down.
Long live Demonoid the best site on the web, best search filters on anysite anywhrer period.
the only thing i hate about Demonoid is “Server Busy” and there supposed “Maintenance”
for those hoping for open regs – don’t bet on it. from what I have gleaned, regs will stay closed until stability is achieved and torrents are slowly reseeded.
invites will probably still be used, but don’t expect them until the fora’s come back online (i can just see the invite spam now…)
224 would you rather no maintence be done at all
ps are you buying a new server for dmnd
be grateful
sorry comment was at 242 not 224
anybody else having trouble logging in?
It keeps taking me to a blank page when I try to login. Now it’s down due to the server being too busy.
Demonid says: “Welcome back, we missed you!”
I say: “Welcome back, Demonoid, I really, really missed you.”
Finally, THE quality Torrent site is operating again. It’s working fine, for me.
An invitation would make a great Christmas gift, please send to luvhandler at hotmail if you have. Thanks in advance!
i was hoping to find a good classical xmas album when they came back, but no luck. geezers, please post
YAAAAAHHHHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh nooo………..not chemo again…
“In Deimos we torrent”
Whats Demonoid?
The greatest xmas present of all time.
Sweet! Welcome back demonoid, been checking the front page every day since it wernt down – what a great Xmas present to see it back this morning!
@234: what an incredibly pretentious motherfucker, already crying about limited capacity on their first day back? and i love this: “…anyone who published their email address up there, I went ahead and submitted them to about 100 child porn mail lists…”
…you have child porn mail lists?
why don’t you submit your own IP to the authorities, you bottom-feeding rock spider. guess now we know why you need your torrents, huh?
IT’S A TRAP
Hurray , Yesterday No Had No Luck to Log into Demonoid,But today great …. ThankYou Demonoid…..
yayyyy!!!!! finally another site i can use besides isohunt n eztv, btjunkies bein heavily monitered so def cant use that
Fuckin – A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From Demonoid FAQ,
Demonoid login difficulties;
I can’t seem to log in, what do I do? (Also known as the Log-In of Death)
If you can’t log in and your sign in information is correct, try deleting your cookies and restarting your browser. You should now be able to log in properly. This is usually an error when dealing with Microsoft Internet Explorer.
My ratio is getting too low, am I going to be banned?
The ratio system is purely statistical and somewhat innacurate for the ones with shared or dynamic ips. Besides what other users may think of you for not sharing, there is no punishment for having a low ratio.
Can I invite my friend to Demonoid?
You sure can! You can access the “invite” feature under your control panel. The link is on the upper right corner of every page .. This will generate a code that the receiver will have to input when they register. There is a set number of invites so use them wisely.
Invitations;
To invite someone to the site, give him/her one of the following invitation codes, and the account registration address:
http://www.Demonoid.com/register.php?with_invite=1
Please note: To avoid abuse, invitations are limited. Also, if someone you invite gets warned/banned, you might get warned/banned too.
FTW, Demonoid ROCKS!!!!!!!!
Can someone pls send me an invitation to demonoid registration, pls share and email to
lucifer391@yahoo.com
Thanks so much in advance
happy days! ratios are all the same and no problems logging in!!
i love demonoid… hooray
all u bitches get off Demonoid so i can get on :D
WOOT! FINALLY! rss feeds are working.
just went to the website and its true!
I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!
What a great Christmas present for me
:)
Let say you are from the western part of the world and you believe in the joy of sharing around Christmas time or let say you are from the eastern part and you believe in the laws of karma (as you sow so you shall reap) …
In both cases, would you please make it possible for me to join the party by sending an invite to kesshan391{at}hotmail391.com …..???
{removing the 391}
Thanking you in advance ….
C*
hm does anyone know the irc server/channel demonoid uses so i can ask for invite there ?

My account is gone too. If anyone feels inclined to send me an invite, it’s greatly appreciated and I will return a Google Wave/Voice invite for those interested. My e-mail address is: yoran@aol.nl
the NOID is back……. no question it completely dominates every bloody torrent site thats there on the landscape. No more fishing around for invites to those twitchy irritating torrent sites…. who think they stand a chance of replacing demonoid…
jesus, you are all scrubs
demonoid died a long time ago
it is nowhere near the largest and one of the least active
Can anyone invite me to Demonoid.

@303

Your Internet provider isn’t the problem. my suggestion is that we wait until demonoid fixes the problem for all the countries.
i can’t log in to demonoid
nuked
blank page for me too
(brazil/virtua)
yeah, yeah, yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, thanks a million times, Demonoid!
if u keep getting blank page use a proxy.
India. I am still waiting. The site is churning out “Server too busy’ message and thereafter a blank page – for the last 2 days.
Hope to get it back at least before X mas..
It’s a Christmas miracle!!!
thx thx thx thx
latinoamerica also celebrates this!!!!
to 315:
Philippines also has white page or server busy. probably all of South Asia.
that is why u have to bypass the block somewhere (Singapore?) by using a proxy/anonymizer type pf service
hey guys can anyone send me an invitation please? i can no longer log in and it took me months to get one…..(back to square one …lol)
please email me.
@fr2re4@gmail.com…help a guy out…..

Demonoid FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!
the noid is back the noid is back
my lil champion
What exactly is so special about Demonoid? Never actually been able to get in there to check it out since it Always seems to have been invite only, or for as long as I’ve been downloading torrents it’s been invite only.
Bah. Demonoid sucks. There is absolutely nothing special about it!
main site seems to be down again.
wuuhuu… Nice to hear
praxus07: There are three rather unique features about Demonoid that make it special:
(1) A search feature that lets you look for torrents by sub-categories of movies, music etc (e.g. “Blues only”) *and* by quality level (e.g. “lossless only”). I’ve not seen that elsewhere, and it is invaluable if you wish to save time wading through junk to find what you wish.
(2) A feature that lets you view recently posted torrents *also* filtered as above – so, for ex., if you only want to see new torrents for “jazz” in “lossless” format, that’s all you’ll get.
(3) An active “comments” section by users, so torrents for poor copies or buggy software are often quickly flagged.
I don’t know of any other places with these three features … I wish there were more!!
So, for today, Demonoid is irreplaceable!
lost the connection. seems to be down again….
yesterday demonoid was working just fine, but today it wont even load up the site
@337
it did work just an hour ago…
of course, downtime was to be expected.
The nice thing of demonoid is the mature community. Lots of quality stuff posted with good descriptions and like someone else said, helpfull comments.
Yes, they’re down but this should have been expected…re-writting the code for a tracker host as big as Demonoid takes tremendous effort, let alone the fact they must verify that the code is stable!
At least we didn’t loose our registrations, be thankful for THAT.
It’ll be back soon
It will be back sooner or later I hope ;) Demonoid is cool
Unfortunately can seem to access site now. Is the new servers not up to handling the traffic?
follow me on twitter
http://www.twitter.com/kryptiksoul
@331
Demonoid has a great community
Great support
Quick removal of damaged/missing torrents
Quality offerings.
Lots of books if you like books
Very little porn (some of the sites seem to offer nothing but while touting themselves as all service).
AND once you are used to it–there is nothing to compare.
Another happy Demon here, I lost my password and Demonoid sent me a new one. The forums aren’t up yet but irc is. For those that aren’t registered, check the site daily until registration is open. Great site, Great community. Welcome back Demonoid.
Nice Kwanzaa present for me!
Demonoid is down again?!?
Please come back soon!!!
Yesterday it was up here in Germany but Today it won´t work at all.
Hope the Demon will soon be stable again its the best shearing site out there.
So long and thangs for all the fish
Site running right now, as seen from Germany. But regs are still closed. :-(
I cannot log in :-(
If I enter my user name and password, it will ask me for the code. If I enter the code generated, it just says the code is incorrect :-(
Now its runnig again for me searched for Alestorm and found it without problems i love this site. They have the backup for my broken hd.
But dont thing i do not pay, i payed 70€ for a live gig last weekend and from time to time i buy cds that i like. In the past it happend to often that i didnt know every song and after i bought it i was very dissapointed.
So long Arrrrr
Not able to log in unless I use a US proxy????
Who is blocking my access?
The Netherlands
great great news
Not able to open
Not working in france, wonder is it being blocked again

u can put it in firefox settings ;)
demonoid is still not working in india and maybe even brazil
but no big deal i always use proxy
u can even use foxy proxy and firefox plugin
i’m frm india … yes .. demonoid showing white page …. :( …. however ..use of french proxy as mentioned by post 356 gets it up n running …. Logging is succesful.. and my ratio is showing correctly .. cheers to all :) …
It’s up in India too…though the ratio is little messed up
@ 357 u can get more proxy’s at
http://proxy-list.org/
use proxy which has uptime 100% they will always work and use of european countries or countries like taiwan
they mostly work
us never works for me
hey it’s really nice to know that Demonoid is back. nothing can compare to Demonoid. But I also experience a blank white page. i believe we all experience it here in the Philippines. I just hope that it will be really ok before. Christmas.
Merry Christmas to all, most especially to the makers of Demonoid!!!
For those getting a white page like me: use Opera with Turbo activated and it will work just fine.
I Can’t believe it!
Opera Turbo makes it work.
Now I can log in!
Thanks ygns.
(Doing the Snoopy dance) It’s back! It’s back! I’m so glad it’s back. Now if we can only find the conscious that Big Business obviously loss so long ago.
Why do I still get a Internal Server error? =(
Btw, I’m writing this from The Netherlands.
@361
Thanks this works
Also in The Netherlands!!!
@361
Thanks for the tip.
Works perfect.
demonoid is such a good public tracker that it does not mind the ratio at all. even if ur ratio is very low it does not delete ur account. but u require an invitation to join it.
@ygns: Opera Turbo works fine. Thanks! too bad this does not work with other browsers like Firefox, IE, Chrome or Safari:(
If anyone has an invite, please e-mail it to trrntfreak@hotmail.com, since my account is gone.
I will be glad if someone can invite me into Demonoid.
Pls email dingding40@live.com.
Thank you in advance.
#361
Opera Turbo does not work for me! Also here a blank page.
Other ideas?
Same here, shows a blank page, and Opera Turbo doesn’t work :/
The site was showing blank pages back when it was still up, but after a few refreshes the pages would load, now they just don’t.
would anyone be able to send me an invite to torrentleech.org
email is btoups27@yahoo.com
thanks
Post 359 did the greatest help …. use this proxy of taiwan > 174.129.22.133
port – 3128
france proxy not workin at the moment …
Hw to use proxy ?
ans) in opera, tools> preferences >advanced>network>proxy> enter in the HTTP block ….
cheers again ..
Happy Christmas to all the guys at Demonoid and many thanks from me [and probably many other people]for working so hard to get the best Torrent site back on-line. Yay!!!

~~**==~ Welcome Back, to that same old Interwebs… that you laughed about.
not working in Mexico
Server not found
Dear TorrentFreak,
Very nice article, really, but since quite a lot of people seem to have trouble trying to just reach Demonoid’s website, could you perhaps do an update on the current situation regarding Demonoid’s comeback? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Site is now opening in India without proxy. cheers!!!!!!!
and in the Netherlands without a proxy. Works!
Still down for mexico
All you private tracker fanboys can fuck off.
You idiots contribute nothing to the torrenting community with your pretentiousness.
No one gives a fuck about how elite your private site is.
It’s not like you’re doing something amazing for the world. Ultimately, we’re all still stealing, regardless of whether it’s from a public or private site.
BitTorrent is about sharing, not being elitist assholes like yourselves. You Neanderthals act like you’re all fucking heroes because you have large ratios.
Share your stuff on sites where people can get them easily, or fuck off.
Bloody pricks.
