any site that comes close to the site to XS or something we can use till the site comes back if it does whats going on

Sigh, I hope it'll be back up (even if it takes a while). It's the best torrent site I've found, and I still have a month left on my donation status which is ticking down. Bah! Good luck guys with getting it back up.

Site is down again. Enjoy nothingness of public content distribution trackers!

The article hasn’t been trimmed. Just FYI."

Just FYI:you're a liar.

earlier you said we had hundreds of thousands of users. now it says
tens of thousands.

you also took out 3 paragraphs filled with lies and half truths.

you also removed comments form users laughing at your article's lack of correct information.

your entire story is based on hearsay due to a forum post from a complainer in early december 2009 on the ovh forums.

WHERE'S YOUR SOURCE?

you have no proof ovh shut down the site. to tell you the truth there were a lot of issues with OVH and that's why we left them. we were down 1 day.

OVH isnt policing it's servers.

if you look at the plans they offer, you will see they target the market of torrent sites seedboxes, and email spammers.

get your facts straight before you spew your shit, blogger.


------------------------

I haven't even seen the OVH forums. There were not several paragraphs removed.

who ever wrote this article should get there info right b/c the site is back on

The site will be back up soon, as always, unfortunately that means we have to get our shows from public trackers until then. *Yuck*
But I have faith in the ones who manage the site, just give it some time!

We in Bulgaria don't give a flying about outdated copyright rules
Move servers here and fook em all
lol

use OPENDNS if your isp's dns server sucks


BTW, END OF SHOW.. I SEE YOU SERIOUSLY TRIMMED YOUR ARTICLE THAT WAS
FILLED WITH INACCURATE BULLSHIT

The article hasn't been trimmed. Just FYI.

comments seems to of been though
117 comments yesterday 87 now ?

I removed some of the comments, as people started talking about if presidents were terrorists and such. We aren't Ain't It Cool News.

yeah what's up with that EOS...you pussy

Does anyone have the IP address for the new location?

My ISP still has the old address on their DNS servers.

Thanks very much! :)

Just wait for dns to resolve can take up 2 48 hours
from what i hear the dns was updated around midnight last night
so your looking max of 26 hours, but doubt very much will take that long

So, according to everyone, XS is back, but for some reason my browser still can't connect to it's server. I'm not sure what's wrong, does anyone have any suggestions? I usually use safari, but I even tried ie (just in case haha) and no luck. Maybe an ip issue? Thanks!

I just grabbed opendns to solve my problem ;)

don't suppose anyone could post the IP? That would clear up this whole DNS issue until it's resolved.

Still unreachable for me...in this insta-digital age, waiting is teh suk ;)

Whatever dude ... for every site you take down at least 2 new ones up. The demand will never cease, so neither will the sites offering it !

Media businesses should just embrace the new media, instead of fighting this lost ware. As long as there are no "equal" legal services, file sharing will never demise in size.

also cleared dns waiting for link to be fixed thanks

thanks cleared dns just waitin for link to be fixed

how do i update my dns i a m running vista

open command prompt, (make sure you run as administrator, Right click command prompt if youre not and click run as administrator)then type in the black box: ipconfig /flushdns

hope that helps, ive done it and so far extremespeeds hasnt come back but im sure it will in time

i flushed my dns and it still isnt working? I know it will come back eventually but how long does it usually take after you flush dns??

hallelujah it's back! suck noobs who make retarded statements about things being closed down for good!

cal aka skinnbonez37

ive flushed my dns and i still cant get on :(
i donated yesterday too

could u post anybody the 2 site's that was posted when XS was down. Wanna check them and they are not on there anymore? the links to other site's.

site is bk peeps dns needs 2 update

if you cant get in, it's due to your dns not updating.

do ipconfig /flushdns

OR use opendns and never have this issue!

I'm there right now - don't know why you can't get in.

It's not back, I have just tried it now, and it's not back

Just give it a little while. I typed in the ipconfig, and went to get ready for work. (appx. 1 hr) and I can get to the website now. Thanks so much for the help! Much appreciated!

It's back. :)

I was the one who sent the email to OVH with screen shots of them distributing copy right material. That didn’t really annoy me, but the profiting from it did.

good for you shithead, but you didnt accomplish anything.
keep up your letter writing campaign, i'm sure they never even read your email.

i'm glad you take such a proactive role in reporting 'what bothers you'


.....might i suggest getting a life?

tard; yes we needed an explanation of your comment and it is now understood.
I do apologize for any unintended offense to you or any Germans reading this. Germans have always been a people I admire and respect but "Nazi" is not German, Nazi is a racist movement by some Germans (a few who took power and ruled by the gun) but most definitely not all GERMANS nor should it ever be tied to GERMAN people, same case with Italians not being Fascists, Russians not being Communists, Jews not being Zionists, Moslems not being Terrorists ...etc ...etc ...etc.
We can all do without the ignorant stereotyping and uninformed generalizations along with the racist remarks the likes of this miserable soul calling itself magicalsysop poison us with!
Again, my apology to the great German people. :-)

thank you all might regulator of the internet (warrior)--->(jackass clownin fool)

just because some one could possibly be making a profit (even though the money most likely goes to server fees etc to promote XS) , because you're not making a profit you feel that you need to go and be lil whiner about it? and even if someone was making a profit on it...how many other torrent sites are out there that ate 100X bigger than XS??? not that i am willing to give you any credit on your claim of you being the one to bring it down or anyone else who has stepped up seeking attention by saying they did it....

ahum.....cough

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when,
But I know we'll meet again, some sunny day.
Keep smiling through, just like you always do,
'Til the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away.

so glad to see all the "regulars" commenting here. waiting with bated breath.

waiting... waiting... waiting...

if you are who you say you are, your youtube vids are a joke, and it is their explicit (you will need to look that up) right to boot anyone they see fit..anyone at any time..even me..i certainly would not invest my time bitching endlessly about it...and learn to spell (this includes your youtube videos..

Last time it had a major issue it took a couple of days to re-appear. No big deal, as long as it all gets sorted out. In the meantime, there are other places to go. :)

i think it's funny to see all these haters post their fake msgs.

eat a cock, it's just been one day.

Why do you guys think I got out when I did... lol

Sucks to be you right now.

nice try

I hear what your saying jth2010 but normally it would be back up by now :(

JG

I just donated as well, so I hope it'll be back soon.

I love XS, but the BS that's happening in the comments here makes XS users look like a bunch of jerks.

Mr. Beaumont,

I am extending to you an open invitation to come join the conversation in the xtremespeeds IRC channel. I'm sure we would all love for you to visit and openly apologize for your unwelcome and slanderous fallacies. Have you nothing better to do with your time besides writing this tripe? Is it an ego boost to feel that any response whatsoever from this community validates your work?

PS - I have been a member of xtremespeeds for well over a year and LOVE IT !!!!

JG

Hi Guys,

Will the site be back online soon? I just donated 100 quid in December and will be extremly disappointed if the site goes under :(

Thanks for any info.....

JG

i'm really a numpty i know what yous think but i cant help it :(

hey all,
hope the site comes back up soon.
missing the entertainment of the shoutbox.

this is like a makeshift shoutbox - LOL

ClosetMonkey, why do they call you that? Are you a great big ape hiding in my closet, waiting in silence to scare the great bejeesus out of me when I'm asleep at night? Or is this perchance a Family Guy reference to the evil monkey living in Chris' closet? Get the site back up already so I can finish downloading the episodes. To my computer at home. In my country. Where "piracy" isn't frowned upon. NEED MOAR TORRENTZ!

l3x1c0n i'm coming to get ya on the old irc server

not there anymore m8 but can hop on if you're game

hey you guys don't think its that "bannededed" guy do you??

:judge: :yogi: banded!

P.S.:

el oh frakkin' el @

In recent weeks France effectively aligned itself with the entertainment industry by passing laws to stop online distribution of copyrighted material without permission.

In recent weeks?! Get with the program, buddy. This is OLD news. VERY old news. Not "weeks" recent, but "months long past" news. And it pertains to individuals, i.e. Joe Public, downloading, in France no less, on their home internet connections.

site will be back soon peeps :)

hey what is the link and how to i get into the irc chat been trying and i think i havea old one because nobody has been in the chat for three hours

amen to that

l3x1c0n: irc is up and same ip i'm pretty sure

bro I'm getting error trying to connect to irc server - using irc.xtremespeeds.net port 6667

i'm not ur bro, buddy!

im not your buddy pal ha ha just kidding

Use /server -m 91.121.48.106 btw guys. <-- irc.xtremespeeds.net as the domain may not resolve for you

GOD BLESS AMERICAN AND CANADADAN

Can't log onto irc - any ideas??

Of course there are hundreds of thousands of users. Didn't you hear? Any written article by some hack wannabe journalist who just wasn't good enough for a real journalism job must be true? Come on, really. Buddy can't even cite his sources... "OVH this" "France that" ... Not even one iota of solid source material. Fifty bucks says this guy was at one time a member and is in fact just completely and utterly butt-hurt about losing out on getting his phat leeches.

But I digress. I have also failed to cite any resources. EPIC PHAILZ!

mro, you know irc is up right? oh and site will be back shortly ;)

bmaXS not able to get onto irc...

we "was" busted haha, who talks like that? oh wait I know who does...

u was busted? oh snap!

sooo, iv had my little rant.....um so....bma or rochie.....was wondering how much warning you guys got...or did they do it like thieves in the night ;-)

I miss you xtremespeeds! RIP! OH WAIT, IT'S GONNA BE BACK SOON! YIPPEE! Lame-ass article. dude. And hire a proof-reader while you're at it.

PLIS

Zombie apocalypse

zombie apocalypse borked site?!

well not really but I have to read my book about zombie apocalypse til the site is back up

as a frequent user of XtremeSpeeds im heartbroken to see it go, and I stand firm in the belief that any show that has aired on free-to-air TV is now and will forever be in the public domain, it is not about entertainment companies making profit..its about them making shure they keep their profit margins above 600 percent...shame on OVH for becoming yet another company to bow down to american interests.

Hopefully they are able to salvage the server setup and migrate it to a server in a country progressive enough to understand the importance of "public domain media".

And if they are going to charge $100 for a pc game that has had as little thought put into it as the presidency of G W Bush, or continue to churn out reality TV to maximise profits, or continue pumping out media on non-biodegradable DVD's when digital distribution is available but being used at less than 1% market share, and prices for media remain as high as they are...then im sorry, but "piracy" then becomes a tool that should be used to force the entertainment industry to modify their production and sales methods.

ohhh... and when i started my little rant...no one had commented yet....rofl

what are you talking about????

its not been taken offline

god i hope its sorted...without a doubt the best torrent site on the net

its tru we was busted we will try and b up soon

your full of shit lol its being worked on

i have been a member for like 8 months how do i get on the IRC

Rochie FTW - people have been spouting this none sense since the site went offline

ROCHIE FOR PRESIDENT! I <3 ROCHIE!

rochie is a cutie!

Do you know it's being worked on? I can't find any other info about it :(

Glad to see your reply there Rochie....LOL

Cheers!
