Demonoid Down: Hardware Problems and Site Loading Too Slow  | read this item

For almost a week now, the super awesome torrent site Demonoid has been down. While others can still connect, they are still complaining because it’s terribly slow and the site is almost not loading at all.

It is not the first time for the site to went down. Last year, around September 19, the site went down after it was reported that they had experienced a number of computer problems stemming from power outages. The tracker returned to service on November 5, and the main site returned on December 13.

The site experience a major downtime last April 27, 2010. A day after, the site went back online but only a few can access it. While some can already access Demonoid, more and more users still can’t access the said website. Users has been seeking for alternatives to cover up for its absence.

It was also reported that Demonoid is experiencing DDOS attacks for the past few days. They are now facing a catastrophic hardware problem that will take a lot of time to fix.

All we need to do now is be patient and hope that Demonoid.com will be back online soon.

    Not sure where the catostrophic hardware failure info is from, but I got the site to partially load and there message on there confirmed the slyck and torrentfreak articles that it was just a major DoS attack, they mentioned nothing about hardware.
    ” Newspost
    Ongoing denial of service attack

    There is a denial of service attack in progress that is causing extreme slowness.
    We are currently working on solving the issue.

    Thanks for your understanding”

    Please source the hardware issue statement.

    @ZZtop

    It’s likely that the person who posted that and the person who owns it are the same person…

    Also, who the fuck would DDOS demonoid?

    They don’t even work on a profit, and they’re gonna end up in jail FOR US (dying for our sins, amiright?)

    Demonoid.com is an amazing site. Ignore demunoid.com For all we know, they could be doing the DDoS attack to try and get people to use their own site.
