It is when it comes to torrents. Things will only remain available through a torrent as long as people are still seeding it and trying to get it. Most torrents are around for only a week or two.

Viper is in the process of reseeding old episodes though, so you may be able to get it sometime soon.

Well this sounds better as an answer that the first one which sounded a bit rude.

Sorry if you thought my question was stupid.

No, I keep old torrents seeded myself (or at least I try to with my slow upload), but I think I released this one via the old tracker that has since gone down or via HTTP which also isn't feasible anymore.

Hey Viper, perhaps an FAQ (unless there is one already and I'm a blind fool for not seeing it) is needed to explain more clearly about how torrents work detailing points such as...

- one should give a decent upload speed as it is a method of pass-the-parcel. The more you give, the more you get.
- however, you shouldn't saturate the upload stream as this can lead to slow downloads.
- Firewalls and ports
- torrents expire after a certain period (when people stop seeding)

Yeah, been meaning to finish faq.php...

And these shouldn't expire - I seed them pretty much 24/7. images/smilies/smile.gif

This is a Jabba's World rip and I think I'm going to remove these from my site and not release them. Too much... arguement between that site and this one due to me releasing their stuff.

It's most likely on eMule though.

they don't really rate it, as much as they take their pants off-and start urinate on it. Hammond starts off like: (with his posh-english images/smilies/wink.gif) "There are a few things a sportscars should have to be able to be called a sportscar (he lists the things...standard sportscar-feautures) and their has NONE OF THOSE THINGS .. And then the famous TG-thrasssshhing images/smilies/wink.gif

It's asahme really, cuz Ive fallen in love with the looks of that car, since every time I pick up my buddy from work at the Lexus dealership-the SC 430 gives me a wink from the other side of the store ... but I can't play with it ... I've only driven it once, but that was worth it ....

But I guess their critique is somewhat reasonable, because Lexus couldhave done a better job on the car, make it weigh alot less, improve its handling and up the finish a bit in the cockpit. The quality isn't alladat either ..
