Why do you use BT-chat....again?

the site never works right. either the torrents are missing or the site is
down. i think i have had a couple torrents actually work from them, otherwise
mininova is the only reliable site where your releases are.

its actually getting very annoying when 80% of the torrents i try and grab
don't work. why not just keep them all linked from mininova?

i agree

also, why did eztv stop with the direct downloads of torrents?

exactly. that was the whole point of using this site over others.

and if you are going to link in this way. only use mininova, because bt-chat is
more like bt-crap. sorry if i offend anyone, but it is completely useless. only
if it was the last thing out there would i use it. it never works.

if you don't like the site don't use it and stop coming here to moan.

personally i think the site is great, provides me with a one-stop shop for all
my programs that aren't broadcast in my country or not for months after they
are broadcast in the us.

yes the site has a few bugs but bearing in mind what you are getting for free
and the effort the people who run the site put in - for no monetary return - i
for one, say thanks.

*rant over*

( i'm having a very bad day by the way )

:-(

thats rich comming from you bj, or is it different for a mod to say what ever
he/she wants and judge ?

i'm not going to bitch and moan about it, as i do appreciate all the good work
eztv has been doing for a long time now, and will always pick an eztv release
if there is a choice, but i have been having a great deal of difficulty getting
any torrents from the site since the bt-chat thing was put into use.

99% of the time i get timeouts on links to the bt-chat pages and the few times
the page actually loads it's just an almost empty page with no torrent on it.

i just want to say again that i do very much appreciate all your hard work, i'm
just wondering if there's something wrong at your end or if it's me. seems
like a lot of people are having problems though, maybe it's a geographical
location thing?

1. we host both eztv website and bt-chat.com website
2. there have been slight problems with the amount of traffic increase and what
the server can handle

we have added more ram to the server, which have seem to stabalize thing
considerably, so there should be no mre timeout issues. we are also working on
getting a few more boxes to run services on seperatly, to make sure it doesn't
happen again.

those who know us, know were only trying to provide things the best we can. we
work closely with eztv, and try to help them out any way we can. those who doubt
us, probably have just started seeing us, which i dont blame you from that
impression since eveyrthing was going to crap...but give us a chance, were
always trying to improve, and even know theres bad times like the last few
weeks, we find a way to make it better.

also, if you want mininova links, go on the irc channel, cause thats what the
box uses. and also the mirror site uses a lot of mininova links. we thank eztv
for everything they do for us, like linking to our site, to help us pay for our
servers. if i sound kinda blah, i just woke up, so dont hold it against me 😉

this site is down 80% of the time and the torrent links to usually timeout.

why bother...i know i don't.

thanks for the honest reply. personally i have just started seeing you (when
eztv started using you) and have only used mininova/eztv since suprnova shut
down.

as nbtx said... the eztv site is hosted by the bt-chat site..
eztv used to work fine all the time... but its popularity has risen tremendously
as of late... so all you people that are whining, are leeching bandwidth and
making things worse... you are complaining about a problem that in a way, you
cause!..
so stop whining.. take your ass over to the bt-chat site... and on the left side
of the page there is a little paypal donation button.. donate a few bucks and
help them upgrade...
do that... or stop bitching.... those are your two choices.

how much do i need to donate for it to go back to the way it was (when it was
functional with direct links)?

donate what you can, there is no set minumum i believe and the i'm about 100%
sure there is no max. the reason for donations are for server costs. everything
else is programmed on eztv staff and bt-chat staff own time.

to clarify: the donations are for the server, not wages.

thanks for the honest answer, totally understand that you are still getting on
your feat.
