Oh, that site gets about 90% of my traffic. It's awesome and they keep themselves small enough that no one will ever likely care. But they don't have everything and we need an everything site. Such as Xvid versions of Season 7 of The Shield (they only have DVD-Rs). You always need that site where you know you can find anything.

Demonoid looks like it's actually coming back at some point. They've already survive litigation up here and they went down due to maintenance not legal issue (I check on it after seeing this post). It was an excellent everything site and will become my main one once it's back up an running. ISOhunt is a pretty good backup, though, and will be my main one until Demonoid comes back.

Everytime I try to subscribe to Torrentbytes the user limit is full :(

Try weekdays early morning. They have a running 60k(I think thats it) user limit, and inactive accts are deleted. So just keep trying. Keep in mind when you are filling out the form to register that you HAVE to click the FAQ and RULES links to show you "read" them or it wont let you register.


I also use RevolutionTT, but I let my account expire while I was pregnant/post partum, so I have to wait for open signups again. That site is a little harder to keep a ratio, but they have stuff that TB doesnt have sometimes too.

Like Shellie said, keep trying. It may take months but you will eventually get one. It's worth it, that site maxes out my d'load limit of 500k/sec (some sacrifice for unlimited bandwidth) on most torrents.

Honestly I never have a problem signing up at TB. My TB account expired as well, but when I tried to sign up, I got right in. Again, this was early morning on a weekday.

I just tried now for the first time, not allowed.
