How many of you would go into a store and steal a cd?

And how many of you people felt the same way about the dvds,games and cds you bought before filesharing was around. Because nothing could have stopped you from stealing them before.

think about it

First I would like to thank Ernersto for his interview. He is I think the only journalist close enough to all bittorrent webmasters to write always interesting articles.

Then, I have read carefully all your comments and you are right. We need to improve the quality of the torrents on the site (though we are already using PirateBay fake list and other solutions to detect the fake torrents), that is why we are looking for a team of moderator.

We will also improve the lisibility of the site, we have some issues with torrents with very long names.

We have also several ads. Probably too much according to some of you. We try our best every month to negotiate with our ads partners feature less intrusive ads. We will remove some of them as soon as we have enough to support the growth of the site and have enough servers.

Finally, even though some of you do not like the site, we are really proud of where we have gone in 6 months, and offering one of the largest tracker (which has a 100% uptime) is a great achievement.

SUMOTracker is now hosting 200 000 torrents, almost 1/5th of all alive torrents! We want to continue providing the service.

Thank you all for your suggestions, and let us know if you want to help us and become moderator at SUMO!

Since demonoid is down i decided to try out sumotorrent. I have seen their tracker in several torrents gotten off mininova.
I must say that sumotorrent is the most crappy site i’ve ever seen. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF SUMOCREW!
Jeez, could you possibly make the site ANYMORE annoying in terms of ads and SHIT?

I hope you crash and burn. You do not deserve any attention at all, sites like yours will be the downfall of bittorrent. Please kill -9 [pid of apache]

as admitted above, they take advertizing revenue in the 10′s of thousands of dollars a week. yet they cannot spend a dime on protecting their users

sumo are royally taking the piss

i am not alone and a growing number of trackers are implementing ipfiltering to block anti-p2p peers from joining the swarms. ironically, it is the big boyz who are ignoring this technology

where is the fukin leadership in filesharing? it is from the grassroot trackers who dispise the monolithic oldschool trackers for being so fukin niave and money centric

filesharing has always been about freedom of information and exchange of data. filesharing was hijacked by the Americans who sought to build their business models on the copyright content from the labor of others. THAT is what got filesharing a bad name

now PISSboy turns up and does it all wrong again, reinforcing the arguments against filesharing, making it more difficult for the genuine proponents of freedom of data

enough people know the guy to give him away to the French authorities. weed the weak from our ranks
