from what i hear it's just someone that hijacked the domain playing a joke, but you never know. even if it was the FBI i doubt they'll ever go any further than shutting the site down like they do all the others.

either way, it aint the first and wont be the last. if they wanted you, they'd have you, so i wouldn't worry too much until they knock on your door.

I don't see what the problem is...It's not like you guys were making a profit, and it's not like star wars(or whatever it may be) isnt gonna make millions regardless. And if anybody got sentenced that would just be rediculous,they bitch about spendin to much money on prisons yet they love to fill them with people who really havent caused anybody harm.

what do you mean good riddens to horibble torrent sites, all the big boys like mgm studios all think that it is them that are hard done to by piracy but people wouldnt have to bother downloading stuff if it wasnt so dam expensive just the other day i went to the cinema and it was almost 7quid to see the film and dam the coke was more expensive than a pint of larger down the pub. so i think fair play to the pirates good work boys if it was 2- 3 quid a ticket then we wouldnt have to download stuff............................................................
