Oink snuffs it

Just a little warning to those who had been using Oink's Pink Palace. Just seen a story on BBC news that the website has been shut down, and the guy running it has been busted. They've accosted all his computer stuff in the UK and also the server side which was in the Netherlands. Just in case you have any torrents still running I guess it would be a good idea to stop them running now.

Well, that's the end of the best torrent site around. Such a shame in my opinion... Time to move on...

Monolith:
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is the worst news possible!! My life will never ever be the same.

Bubba:
It's a fucking tragedy - nipped home and stopped my client as soon as I heard.

I just hope he manages to escape jail / crippling fines and can continue elsewhere.

I'd uploaded over 100GB to Oink  :wall:  :thumbsdown:

I donated a tenner so I could see the top 10 stats and have more features. I can't see the authorities coming after 180,000 members though :S

ps. I don't love the Guardian more than any other national paper.
