Has anyone been able to log onto TheTradersDen.org lately? Have they been shut down or is there just a new URL? If it has been shut down, SUUUUUUUUCK! That was a really great place for high quality ROIO and makes me scared if Dime would be next.

Answer - The domain name was STOLEN by a hacker:

Someone hacked into my godaddy account last night and stole our ttd domains. They also tried to change the passwords on our server but our host was on the ball and realized it wasn't me and refused. So, the servers were not hacked. However, I am now dealing with godaddy to get our domains back.

Edit: Just to give you a laugh.... he's been contacting me and wants to sell the domains back to me for $2500! Hahahaha! No thank you!

It's amazing... it took the guy just a couple of hours to steal the domains and it's taking me several hours to get them back! I've sent all the necessary paperwork into godaddy (all done yesterday morning) and yet all I've heard back from them is that they've received it all.

I have a couple of other domains for the site that this asshat didn't steal. The host offered to set one of them up for the site, but I said no since I thought this would get resolved quickly and because I knew there would be tracker problems if I used another domain. However, I am now considering this if I am getting no closer to getting this resolved today.

While you guys are sitting around wondering what to do (lol), may I suggest you change your passwords! Use this site to generate a nice one - http://www.pctools.com/guides/password/ - and then spend the day trying to memorize them. My mind is a jumbled mess right now trying to remember which strange password goes to which account. Oh, and don't use just one email for all your different accounts cuz then it is all right there for the hacker!

I miss you guys and miss TTD, but we will be back!

edit: I did get some good news yesterday. U2 tickets for Las Vegas went on sale (pre-sale) yesterday and I took time out from dealing with this mess and I managed to snag four fourth row seats for the family.

They're (essentially) back, it seems.

What a pain in the butt for Lynne & Co. I just don't get why people do the things they do sometimes...

They are? Where? Not at the regular URL.

Thanks. I saw the forums before, but didn't realize you could get to the torrents using this route. Trying to access the site using just thetradersden.org still gets you nowhere.

Soooooo, if you want to access audio torrents:

Video torrents:

That's odd...that's always been how I've checked out their torrents: by going through the forums. In any case, I expect they'll get this sorted by the end of next week.
