Alan Ellis was fired from his job due to some of the site code being found on a work machine/laptop. As such the police raided his work place.

Genuine source :)

You’re a moron aza. You obviously have limited private BT experience. OiNK was fucking easy to maintain ratio.

This whole thing has just made me what to pirate more and stick it to those guys. I’ve been using http://www.nch.com.au/soundtap/index_b.html?ref=google&ref2=mstb to record streaming radio and up load songs/albums.

Regardless of any records Oink may have kept, unless these authorities have tapped into a torrent you are seeding and have actually gotten a pirated file from you, how can they prove that you are indeed trafficking in illegal sharing? Anybody can name a torrent anything they want, and then rename a legal file as something illegal to fool you. Fake files are rampant anyway so just because a torrent and file are name “Bourne Ultimatum” doesn’t mean that is the real file you will end up with–so how can they get you for illegal files if they never were able to hook up to your computer and get the real file? A log listing the names of user uploaded files means nothing without the actual file that they can prove is illegal to go with it (and referenced/gotten from your IP).

silly people, it doesn’t matter what was in those logs. it could be your fucking social security number and the authorities wouldn’t be able to touch you.

there was this thing called cheating that oink and the mods spent plenty of time trying to prevent. to do this you have to adjust what your client tells the tracker. in other words there is no proof that these logs contain accurate information. they could easily be tampered with by oink himself or the users. for example, i’ve saw a guy in the forums one time that had a ratio of 10000.00 in a matter of minutes of being on the site. he was obviously kicked off, but there is no proof that this type of thing did not take place regularly.

now quit fucking crying. jeez

In the weeks and days leading up to the close of the site I would notice at approx 1am Pacific time the site would stop for 10-15mins while the system was “backed up”. the message also suggested the user grab a cup of coffee. Must mean it was what 8am in England. sounded right to me. I saw this happening a couple of times so I know he backed something up.

[quote comment="196611"]Private site IMHO sucks. The user are selfish and only want to do 1:1
So in short their trading byte for byte. That’s not how p2p should work
If most of you didn’t join site like this public site would be a lot better
I don’t blame oink for being like that I blame people for being such a sheep and let the few abuse them with BS ratio. Most user don’t have decent upload speed, to maintain a ratio is torture or abusive. Plz do us all a favor and go public!
You get a lot more people to leech and sleep a lot better at night knowing that you are anonymous.
oink is not just maintaining ratio they are nazi![/quote]

I bet 90% of ex oink users would not use a public “oink”

so then what? No good content and public “oink” is shit just like every other public tracker
