I now know what it's like to be a politician. Every move, no matter how small, gets posted as news.

As some of you may have read recently on some p2p news sites, LokiTorrent.com is posted as 'for sale' on Sedo.com.

If you ran a website (and some of your do), wouldn't you be curious how much it was worth?

It's common knowledge that most people that buy websites don't buy them to continue running them. They simply nab the mailing list, spam everyone, then make the site into one big sponsored search engine and pop-up gallery. ...The exact reason selling it would mean scrapping an entire year's worth of work that I and the entire volunteer team at LokiTorrent have put into making a worthwhile community site.

If some guy offers me $75K for the domain name, he's more than welcome to it, and I'll simply move the site to a different domain. Selling the entire site will never happen. I have way too much of myself in this site to sell it for any price (well, 2 million could get me to part with it, lol.. but let's live in reality).

As for the legal fund.. if I were going to run off, I would have already. That money is for the lawsuit, as stated. Only those who would run off with the money thought we would.

The legal fund is an enormous sum, and it shows exactly who supports p2p rights. Those who called it a scam and haven't put a few bucks in don't deserve the work, money and time I and the rest of the supporters of LokiTorrent and other p2p sites have put into their projects. If it were up to them, the internet would be nothing more than porn spam and fake college degrees.

Lead by example. We're fighting for your rights, the right to run our site and up until recently I have been spending my OWN money (thousands of it!) to keep LokiTorrent running for this past year. It was only recently when we began making our bills.. just in time for them to double from extra bandwidth usage.

If there were so many who jump on the 'it's a scam' bandwagon every time we make a change or entertain curiousity, this website (and many other user supported sites) would never exist. I can't tell you how many people I've seen say 'That lawsuit is a fake, anyone can make up a bogus suit'



Yeah, tell that to the MPAA. I'd love nothing more than to make that rediculous suit vanish.

Write an article on that.

LokiTorrent.com

If someone offers us some huge amount for the domain name, we MAY accept and simply move this web site to a different domain name (most likely take over torrentstop.com), but I don't see that happening any time soon.

I love LokiTorrent or whatever it will be called in the future. I believe this isn't a scam. They'll be back.

and i believe he is an absolute thief who thinks we are all stupid (does anybody believe that crappy excuse above) ?...everyone knows you can use several websites to appraise and value your site for you CONFIDENTIALLY...you don´t need to post adverts like it was a piece of real estate, inviting public offers.He is a thief and a liar and on this occasion i hope the MPAA fine he will pay will wipe out all his profits and that he is also sued for fraud. I´m tired of these conmen whose only reason for opening a p2p site id to use the membership as cattle to pump up their ad revenue or milk them for donations...shameful (and no, i am not saying all other sites are the same)

Damn... I guess I'm wrong. Although I really hope I'm right.

how did lokitorrent get shut down?

By the MPAA. Read the other news posts.

what do u think will happen to the users?
