SuperTorrents owner pwned harshly; my download source is dead

[Preach]

I would get lost episodes, and other shows and movies, minutes after the scene release pre-time and with great speeds. The site is down now.

I find the notion of scene rogues sort of hilarious. They're like e-Batmans. Fight injustice!

edit: someone fix the title pls, it's supposed to say "owner pwned"

That's why torrents are shit and the hackers have your IP. Have a great night. They got pwned.

The RIAA website getting hacked was better. I feel bad for you if that's the only place you got stuff.

It's not like I'm worried or anything. I am probably lowest on the list of every site I am/have been a member of as far as uploading and downloading goes. Mostly I would download Lost. I only really follow one relevant show at a time, it was Dexter, now it's Lost. In between I'm gonna start watching The Wire S05. That's all I downloaded from the site. Sure, the FBI is gonna arrest me and throw me to jail and I'll get sued for billions.

I hope someone murders your life.

basically, yeah, lol. he asked for it by using the exact same password for his paypal as all other sites. my paypal password is tied to my bank account and my social security number, and if you knew both you wouldn't be able to figure it out anyway. Used that password for ebay also. I have one password I use for forums, and I have a four digit code I use where i deem necessary.

Imo that's the least safety precaution anybody should take in this digital age. I mean what the fuck, I didn't even understand what happened but through some IRC bot they could access the site server and hash out the password to his account. Holy fuck.

Semi related question.

Why do warez, crack/serial and other download sites always insist that if you like a product, buy it? Legal precaution, so that if there were to be a trial one day they could use it in that and try to flip the thing over to be about character or something? Do you think scene people buy the shit themselves? Well probably, because they get donation money like that fag Ersan, but really. It's just stupid, but I'm curious because they ALL do it. Maybe to get some sense of righteousness among all the foul things they do on the intarweb?

What a tool.

I'm the same as you. I have different levels of passwords basically depending on a) the usage and b) the regularity of how much I use it. Like, my password here and on another forum that I post a lot on is the same, but on a bunch of other forums that I only visit intermittently, it's something else, same goes for bank, ebay, paypal, etc....and my own websites have ridiculous passwords to get into them.

 

[Jeremy]

In order to have a secure password you have to use upper and lower case, symbols, and numbers. Ex. R0)sp@xW3l$ All of our passwords look like that at the school I work at. You can remember them after doing that about 50 times.
